jehst – city streets lyrics

from the lush green
to the sandy beach
from the seven seas
to the mountain peaks

(yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, uh, yo)

from the forest trees
to the city streets
yellow sunshine bouncing off the concrete

(to the city streets)
london
(city streets)
birmingham
(city streets)
chi-town
(city streets)
new york
(city streets)
melbourne
(city streets)
tokyo
(city streets)
oslo
(city streets)
berlin

ride the tubes and buses
commuting through the rushing
headphones b-mping, bopping to the looped percussion
returning to that tribal nature i’ve been losing touch with
the world’s my oyster
every time i touch in
i’m trying to reach beyond that
broaden my horizons
surely i’m alive for something more than 9-to-5ing
living for the city, now the city lives within me
the pain, the pity, the glory; the story that she brings me
from underground tunnel to skyscr-per chimney
i’m trying to scr-p the paper quick, before the bailiffs get me
i state it plain and simply, this nanny state can never babysit me
gentrify the ghetto, still, we’re staying gritty
so turn the sh-t up loud
when the skies are overcast and all you can see is cloud
we do the city proud
where every man’s a king, and every park bench a throne
and every corner like the courtyard of ancient rome
lay your hat down and make it home
and may god bless the child that’s got his own, that’s got his own

i’m in the zone, i’m in the zone

from the lush green
to the sandy beach
from the seven seas
to the mountain peaks

(city streets)
johannesburg
(city streets)
glasgow
(city streets)
amsterdam
(city streets)
manchester

from the forest trees
to the city streets
yellow sunshine bouncing off the concrete

(city streets, city streets, city streets, city streets)

[instrumental to outro:

(when they crucified my lord
were you there
when they crucified my lord?)]
