City of Mine

[Verse 1]
Ayy, ayy, yeah, all right
I'm from the illest part of the southern hemisphere
You into sight seeing? you should probably visit here
It's somewhere between Bali and Adelaide
No better place if you dig being far away
Long ass beaches, heatwaves rampant
Have it all to yourself, no traffic, it's magic
Never manic or panicked, a snails pace when you've landed
The most isolated city on the face of the planet
Yeah, home of the great whites, prone to snake bites
Rough around the edge, but the majority play nice
Except for individuals stuck on a glass pipe
Just might rearrange your jaw if you look twice
So damn pricey when you're ordering grub
And I guarantee once you leave you will have fallen in love
Yeah, there's nowhere quite like it on the face of this Earth
Of course I'm talking about my hometown in the city of Perth
Yeah

[Chorus Keely Brittain & Johniepee]
No matter where I roam
Or where life's taking me
You'll always have a piece of my soul
Beautiful Perth City
No matter where I lay my head
Or I end up in time
You will never find a place quite like
This city of mine

[Verse 2]
We got the pristine coastlines north and south
Sorta like Bath water, no competitors found
Like Esperance, Albany, Geraldton or up in Exmouth
Sunsets painting the sky when the lights turn down
We're known as Sandgropers, thick skinned and wreckless
Merging on the freeway if you got a death wish
We've got a bell tower, whatever the heck that is
And the Perth Arena looks sorta like a bloody birds nest
Getting everything eventually if we're persistent
Believe last week, we just got our first hipster
Say "Yeah, nah" if we're making decisions
And all our shops close at 6PM even at Christmas
Sleepy like Brisbane, but full of charisma
We ain't changing for no one, it is what it is, bruh
And by the way, we're sick of the term backwards
We got Krispy Kremes now and a twenty-four hour Maccas
Yeah

[Chorus Keely Brittain & Johniepee]
No matter where I roam
Or where life's taking me
You'll always have a piece of my soul
Beautiful Perth City
No matter where I lay my head
Or I end up in time
You will never find a place quite like
This city of mine

[Verse 3]
If you're talking footy, that's AFL in the west
We've got two teams: The Eagles and the other one... I forget
We've got the Wildcats and the Western Force
But no one really gives a shit about the rugby of course
Wanna buy a house? Well you could do that here
When in Sydney a millie wouldn't even get you near
It really appears, the west is topping it's peers
Sick of the hustle, move to the metropolis here
We got that FIFO lifestyle down to a T
You'll hear that money ripping burnouts around every street
Falcons and Commodores, with the V8's of Course
Leaving rubber on the floor just about every week
Home to Mr D-rapht, and the SBX
The most isolated rap crew have infected the rest
I reckon the best, arise from the dirt in the West
We'll keep on ripping the competition till there's none of it left
Yes

[Outro]
Westside, westside
W-W-W-W-Westside
Welcome to the city of Perth
Damn right, damn right
Yeah, there ain't no place like it
Ayy, yeah, yeah, I say welcome to the city of Perth
You'll never ever ever find a place quite like it
Peace
