Paragraph Lyric
down here we walk a little faster
down here we grow up real tight
down here we stick together
because down here you've gotta fight

can live off this country's waste
we consume so much in this rat race
(the city is a) human breeding ground of exploitation
but I won't become jaded

IN THE CITY

it's capitalism at its best
people living neck to neck
their glass buildings won't fall on their own
so we should be throwing stones!

IN THE CITY

some of us were born here
some of us were brought here
some of us have moved here
but none of us can leave here

IN THE CITY
