149

[Verse 1: Dels]

Brick upon brick, the city’s getting taller

Public space gets smaller, violate the order

Sonic acrobatics, watch me flip the beat, slaughter

Dragging both feet in the rain, street stalker

Reporting live from the 149...

Where drunk heads are slurring, muttering lies

Sirens, a logo for crime

Red and blue lights spin away in the night

My heart whispers “You Love I”

And the hands on my watch spin back, no lie

I tumble down the stairs in reverse, take flight

Then the fair drops back in her purse, oh my

Raindrops go back to the clouds, in time

With this beat that’s stuck on my mind, Dark sky

Feeling upbeat, I’m sound, despite

Everything that’s bringing me down on this night

[Verse 2: Dels]

I’ve run out of shout, a fight breaks out

Chips exchanged for pounds

I step down in reverse on the pavement

Then the cigarette grows

Pondering life’s lows I scroll through my phone
