lirik lagu high st. – eleji

intro:
yeah i’m sitting in the studio
just thinking bout where i grew up
i grew up on -
yeah i grew up on high street
yeah i grew up on high street

verse one:
i grew up under blue gum trees
four lanes and a roundabout
my old man said it’s time to leave
at 14 kicked me out the house
imagine that
my own fam didn’t have my back
furniture in the front yard
me screaming to my dad; how you gonna do me like that
is that how you go and treat your son huh
i can’t believe how many times my mother callin’ up my friends parents
asking them if it’s alright if i can stay just temporary
if they can make a bed for me
if someone could just tend to me
then i’ll be alright
another homies home
another mother to confide in
see i have no friends, just brothers that i will ride with
brothers that i will die with  suckers don’t read the fine print
knew that

chorus:
if you grew up on high street
the place where i was raised
that strip was my street
i’m running ‘round the maze
i’m finding my feet
they say the kid is next
well sh-t i might be
well how frightening
(so where you from?)

verse two:
i grew up on a street with six pubs and a caltex
three clubs and these nuts they ain’t even down yet
skatepark to revs, teenagers we were rowdy
private school p platers driving audi’s
get out yeah if you ain’t from around here
see we been on the block, f–k scott cam man this is our year
(yeah never doubt it)
i’ve been working hard
i love the burn but i’m trying to get out here
another night i’m working late and you call my phone
the studio and these f—— lawyers are all i know
i’m on my own, i’m in control and this piano
it’s in my bones, cut my sleeves like e.m.o
they all too stoned, see they sink but me i float
i’m on my game, they f-cking useless like pso’s
we under pressure but we shine like diamonds  know your worth
when you grew up on high street

chorus:
i grew up on high street
the place where i was raised
that strip was my street
i’m running ‘round the maze
i’m finding my feet
they say the kid is next
well sh-t i might be
well how frightening

verse three:
i been running all summer, baby since the sun up
see i live on high street, melbourne with the come up
whole city been praying for our mothers
man i’m on my knees telling god f–k cancer
cannabis it be the answer
wanna be the first man from prahran to go throw a hundred grand up  swear they want my head up on a mantle  ask me why i do it, well here the answer – i do it for the family
cut the bullsh-t man no distractions
i got dreams of putting daddy in a phantom
and move my mumma way, way out of frankston
closer to the city in mansion from cash i made from rapping
mans flows has hands that you couldn’t handle
burn – ha!
stick ya like a candle
yo i’m gunning at a pace  that might k!ll us, but since high school i was a mic k!ller
you’ll never take from me
the power of freight trains running straight through my veins
do this sh-t till i’m 800
what a great come up
i just pray that we can finally make peace before our days numbered

outro:
high street, the place where we were raised
it’s up in every suburb, every city, every state
same sh-t going on nothing changed
just the same old day, when you’re living on high street
