[Verse 1: Nick Lupi]
The smoke clears, all you see is the silhouette
Of Van Lupe, send troops, Nick is the illest yet
The biggest threat, flow so sinister, yep
The kid that Sydney expects to get rid of their HECS
That seems to plague the city below park clowns
Running the town, brother, the sound that ain't pretty
What did the snakes get me? Love how their face changes
Quickly as soon as I tell 'em that Fame's with me
Plus the flames from A-Ditty stoke the fire inside
Help convey all that remains in me
Say the name with me, the Spit Syndicate
Lupe and Just Enuf, we stay busy cos I'm
Sat still for too long you couldn't pack
Pills with what Lupe's on, I'm that ill and I
Stay high as a kite, and try as you might
Through song I'm just too strong
The new dawn, the new era, the new day
The true terror, there's few better than Nick Lu-Pe
Dude's crazy whenever I rock the spot
Ill coming off the top like toupees, ooh wait!
They ain't ready for Nick, I'm a beast
Raised on rap music and spaghetti and shit
Rocky waters ahead but I'mma steady the ship
The SS deadliest clique, we on that venemous tip, c'mon

"Y'all know the name"
"The Spit Syndicate" "I'm the one that said"
"Got the shit locked down" "[?]"
"Heads know the potency" "Check it out"
"Y'all know the name"
"The Spit Syndicate" "I'm the one that said"
"Got the shit locked down" "[?]"
"Heads know the potency" "Check it out"
[Bridge 1: Nick Lupi]
The SS, nah, nah, we ain't stopping
Got a fresh poured beer you know we keep rocking
Gotta let 'em know failure is not a option
It's Ashfield baby, we 'bout to get it popping
Like the SS, nah, nah, we ain't stopping
Got a fresh rolled dutch you know we keep rocking
Gotta let 'em know this is the only option
My man J-Nuff we 'bout to get it popping like that
[Verse 2: Jimmy Nice]
I got love for the freedom represented through the pen that I use
Hate the bullshit that follows when that freedom's abused
I love the fact that my feelings are heard, hate how they
Criticise each and every word, but that aside
I'mma strive towards getting it done, love the competition
Hate how I'm never the one that bounced back
System's a mouse trap, they just lettin' us run
Love bread, hate getting the crumbs and all that
More traffic on the one-way street, love my country, hate how
They force feed us what the governments preach
I love the music, hate the stereotypes, love to jump on the
Booze, but hate the drama at the end of the night
Love the feeling when I'm rocking a stage, love living
Hate living on a dollar a day, but that's life
Act right 'fore the kids starts jotting a phrase
With your name in it. Stay timid, we're not for play, no

"You supposed to be the best, step up"
"Certified" "[?]" "Don't step" "Act right"
"If I wanted you killed, you'd already be dead"
"I leave you nameless"

The SS, nah, nah, we ain't stopping
Got a fresh poured beer you know we keep rocking
Gotta let 'em know this is the only option
It's Ashfield baby, we 'bout to get it popping
Like the SS, nah, nah, we ain't stopping
Got a fresh poured beer you know we keep rocking
Gotta let 'em know this is the only option
It's Ashfield baby, we 'bout to get it popping, like what?
