about

A lot of hip hop and rap albums out there have intros to their albums and I wanted to do something with a song that might make a statement about the overall album as a whole. The start of this track with the external city sounds alludes to the sound effects and city-centric content of the rest of the album. I love the crazy distorted noise sounds on this one. They were played by Butchy Fuego, drummer of Pit er Pat.

lyrics

When does a habit become what you know? Cause right down the street they're turning these lofts into homes. And how can you blame them for selling these lands to the rich? Would you even know what you would not do? When handsome funds become even more handsome. When there's no one left to tell you no. Same song heard long ago.
Windows are calling me down to the street. How can I resist? These emotions are fed by concrete. And those silly games played at night when there's nobody home to hold will leave you complicated. And dreaming of the worst. Trying hard to drown your biggest fears when you only wanted to quench your thirst.
Women become your destiny. You already gave. And they tried to make it out like it was MY fault. It's not my fault.
