denz (2) - gotham lyrics

gotham lyrics
[intro]
it’s a love and hate type of feeling
towards my city
and i’ll tell you about it
listen

[verse 1]
i never gave a d+mn about the gimmicks
it’s why you see me laughing at the critics
knowing i’ma make it like it’s written
like nas, gonna blow ’em with these lyrics
i got my sh+t to say about the culture
knowing d+mn well i’ma face all the vultures
aware of the risk coming with it, it’s worth it
and even unprepared this moment is so perfect
i’ll open all the curtains

[chorus]
lemme tell you sumn about my town
they wanna call it gotham, but it’s rotten
city crushing dreams, callin’ it forgotten
it’s violеnce on the wheel
sh+t is going crazy, i don’t know how to feel
lemmе tell you sumn about my town
they wanna call it gotham, but it’s rotten
city crushing dreams, callin’ it forgotten
it’s violence on the wheel
sh+t is going crazy, i don’t know how to feel
[verse 2]
wanna be the greatest in a city where they hating
i gotta chase my dreams and my cadence
simply got fame as a target on my list
but please, i want it without satan
i want it without satan
’cause i know about his ways
to shorten all my days
it’s a talent, cutting life short for these youngins
in the streets, bigger tally
they simply tryna make it
by getting all these drugs
lacking education
the future’s getting tainted
they tryna make bread, where’s the flour?
claiming you’re ahead, where’s the power?
’cause y’all have yet to bloom
growing in the dark like a ghoul
listen, i was raised in the suburbs
so they say that i’m biased
they going on a sputter
so i better stay quiet
but tell me, how could i?
we’re dealing with a crisis
tell me, how could i?
it’s a crisis
[chorus]
lemme tell you sumn about my town
they wanna call it gotham, but it’s rotten
city crushing dreams, callin’ it forgotten
it’s violence on the wheel
sh+t is going crazy, i don’t know how to feel
lemme tell you sumn about my town
they wanna call it gotham, but it’s rotten
city crushing dreams, callin’ it forgotten
it’s violence on the wheel
sh+t is going crazy, i don’t know how to feel

[verse 3]
they be talking ’bout our kind on the media, like we outta line
claiming men of color simply cannot shine
now as i’m watching, and it seems
we must’ve believed all the lies
conditioned to be weakened in a state of dependence
viciously commissioned like a sale, its a sentence
listen, i do understand
the burden of the pigment
aware that our pm is so ignant
“five or six hundreds is enough for your rent”
deprived from the struggle with the millions that he spent
unable to bring change, he let us all in pain
tryna hide a system that is broken, what a shame
’cause when yo’ skin colored
they assuming you’re the gunner
man, camara never did it
mistreated by the media
but what if he was white?
you can guess it
[chorus]
lemme tell you sumn about my town
they wanna call it gotham, but it’s rotten
city crushing dreams, callin’ it forgotten
it’s violence on the wheel
sh+t is going crazy, i don’t know how to feel
lemme tell you sumn about my town
they wanna call it gotham, but it’s rotten
city crushing dreams, callin’ it forgotten
it’s violence on the wheel
sh+t is going crazy, i don’t know how to feel

[outro]
now i understand what’s the issue
corrupted politicians
crooked population
and everyone is fissured
i guess i could say
montreal really is starting to look like gotham to me
