funky dl - live in a place where... lyrics

verse one
i now live in a place where i not too long discovered
behind my block is where my pops first met my mother
stewart road, she told me the story of her younger days
and everything that happened just before me
and i live in a place where there’s too many liquor stores
and next door to each other too many chicken stores
gambling establishments, i couldn’t paint the picture more
and every day people queue to buy tickets for the lotto
in twenty fifteen, september second
i bought some tickets, later that night i checked them
09, 27, 29, 33 in my hand
couldn’t believe it cos that night i won seven grand
live in a place where i guess dreams can come true
the same place that people suffering from drug abuse
the same place that people jump you at the atm
the same place where you can make a friend
i live in, live in a place where people know my face
but don’t know my name, that’s cool, i love my sp-ce
i got a nice place, at least on the inside
at least that’s what my friends say once they spin by
live in a place where police presence really low
they say they gonna fix that up, but yo’ who really knows?
they been talking bout’ regenerating here for years
but everything stays the same and i’m still here… live in a place where…

chorus (x2)
and it’s the place i live
and it’s the place that i live
and it’s the place i live
it’s the place i live

verse two
i live in a place where when i cross the street
immediately it turns from e11 to e15
so i’m just a stone’s throw away from dennison
in a place where most of the time i’m reticent
live in a place where my pops used to visit me
jump in his car and come through to deliver me
the letters that i still used to get from my old address
and to check that his son wasn’t homeless
he always used to ask me if i’m managing to find the rent
i’d tell him yep, just so long as all this time i spent
working on this music pays off, i’mma be alright
and plus i’m free to work at any time i feel like
i live in a place that can take some getting used to
cos i ain’t feeling what some of these little youths do
but they young, so cognitively they ain’t quite there
you could say the way i was that age was quite rare
or maybe not, but it doesn’t really matter now
i’m older, i’m wiser, i’m stronger ain’t no backing down
i’m growing, i’m climbing, i’m reaching for the very top
so life is still sweet, like a cherry drop
live in a place where god loves me
and he’s re-tuning me to rediscover me
live in a place where nothing is physical
or geographical, i live a miracle, i live in a place where…
