Does the Lion City Still Roar? |
| I’ll keep my faith alive |
| Cause this is paradise or parricide |
| I can’t believe this sight |
| Streets full of blank faces and junky eyes |
| The streets won’t sleep tonight |
| A lullaby for the half-alive |
| The city swings and whines |
| To the double crime of drugs and hard times |
| Lion city sirens sing the night away, night away |
| Lion city sirens sing the night away |
| The city feels like a cage |
| Feels like a powder keg |
| That’s almost set to explode |
| Lion city’s begun to rot |
| It’s a matter of time until the roaring stops |
| The scene from the ground up From the painted walls to the rooftops |
| My city’s closed and locked |
| While the hop of the beat crack our sidewalks |
| The haves and the have-nots |
| Paint the backdrops of drugs and gunshots |
| lion city sirens sing the night away, night away |
| Lion city sirens sing the night away |
| There’s an overdose on me And he does the cocaine shake |
| Cause the lion city sirens sing the night away |
| The city seems like it’s trapped |
| Between its future and its past |
| Life or death of a city not coming back |
| The city feels like a cage |
| Feels like a powder keg |
| And now it’s gonna explode |
| Lion city sirens sing the night away, night away |
| Lion city sirens sing the night away |
| There’s an overdose on me And it’s wearing out good things |
| Cause lion city sirens sing the night away |
| Sing the night away |
| Sing the night away |
| And I won’t be long |
