sean little & wonder brown - universal city lyrics

[intro: kristen dake]
living free
i won’t let go, i won’t let go of your love
yeah eh hey hey
inner city life inner city pressure taking over me
feel the city pressure taking over me
inner city life inner city pressure taking over me
and i won’t let go of your love

[verse 1: wonder brown]
our universe is a city
open door the grimy and gritty
where what’s lively and pretty suffocates in the litany of many
similar to a packed jail with smog
as a black, stale atmosphere, clogging a jog
through the downtown district
white tee on a misfit
stealing from a scene where it’s ain’t n-body witness
much less give it the love from this wannabe thug
gonna be drugged from police policy
mugged as a problem
claiming brutality to solve him
like, what they think they understand isn’t sodom
in a bottle they bought him, allowed him to rotten
put his picture on a bulletin, they think they got him
his prints in the system, community missed him
university overlooked him when he was wishin’
as an infant, to grow up and be a policeman
but the ones he wished to be hope he retreats from the city…

[hook: kristen dake]
inner city life, inner city pressure taking over me
(feel the city pressure taking over me)
inner city life, inner city pressure taking over me
(and i won’t let go of your love)

[verse 2: sean little]
now in the universal city debt is on the rise
in pursuit of better lives
searching for truth through embedded lines
wise guys telling intelligent lies
a sign of the times
define mines by the riot and crimes
survive violent nights
it’s a grind to find quiet in your mind
rise and shine in a skyline high rise
high off of the life like a pilot licensed to fly

[verse 3: wonder brown]
i strain and i sigh, day to day to provide
for what’s right in my mind but what’s taking my life
can’t seem to place my third eye, wasting my time
on that ribbon in the sky
when that ribbon isn’t tied tight to why my sight is blind
all i know that my life in hindsight can’t get by to provide
to gain a balance while being a bride
to budget, bugging and budging
i love it
but i hope it subsides, right?

[verse 4: sean little]
it’s always profit to be made
gossip to be relayed
god sits deep in the shade
watches broadway relate
alcoholic sips his pain away
single mother child in stroller
struggling hustler pushing his pile over
then high roller eyes over his own shoulder
at iron holder or chrome totter
little does he know the code of the opposite culture
youngin’ taught not to pop and reload a revolver
over the stereotypes he fights and buries inside
what he writes as the stereo cries
god’s honest truth you are hearing no lies
here we reside your eyes rise to the advertised skies
cluttered in billboards
that which we are in love with we will k!ll for
you see the city lights and the city pressure
once my pleasure i want to feel more
