Best city in the world
Living in the city life is such a pity its
When your on the 22 and the seat is shitty
If you feel my wrath you'll be glad i dont know ya
I saw stumbling around the streets of Strathcona
I wonder what your doing so far from home now
I used to know you along time a go pal
From my view from the 22 I can see what your going through
Nothing new I try to lend a hand but you refuse
What am i doing in this part of town?
I like to keep it reel and keep my ear to the ground
I like to feel the air see the sights and the sound
Remember where I'm from so i never fall down
So i keep my edge and intensity integrity
Never wind up living all up in tent city
But i got a jam space just a couple blocks away
Straight out of east van till my music stops to play
This is the best place to live in the world
This is the best city to live in the world
Out of my cell straight into hell
I think i got the same old story to tell
Never fail, always prevail
Willing to fight for what i have tooth and nail
What i have the truth is but rare
The noose is still there
Thought i had it but that ship has now sailed
Going to depth that none will dare to care to spare
Though I had a pair
Dont go fall for the fake allure
Stay on the 22 and get the free tour
Stay away listen when i warn you
These streets have torn through more than a few
What you gone do when they come for you
There prone to condone you leave home to rot your soul through
Leave your whole broke with past dew it will outcast you and outlast you
Dont just let it go devoir you
It can sometimes empower through
Dont run and coward the truth
It can shower you in dooze
Now don't you worry about me when you see me stumbling around
I'll be just fine talking to myself with my face on the ground
I was coming home from band practise riding on the 22
Thats when i saw you thats when i saw you
I was coming home from band practice riding on the 22
Thats when i saw you and i knew that it was true
Everything i heard and everything i knew
Did exactly what i knew they were going to do
When your on the 22 and the seat is shitty
If you feel my wrath you'll be glad i dont know ya
I saw stumbling around the streets of Strathcona
I wonder what your doing so far from home now
I used to know you along time a go pal
From my view from the 22 I can see what your going through
Nothing new I try to lend a hand but you refuse

This is the best place to live in the world
This is the best city to live in the world
