Zastron State of Mind

Yeah, this is me Speeder Razor
Yeah, I was born and raised in Zastron
That's the name of the album too, huh
Yeah, I will never forget where I come from, man
But we've gotta speak the truth too
(It won't be all bad, it won't be all good)
Uh, look

These bright lights in big cities, they never really attract me
I'll never give them a chance to play with my life and trap me
That's why I'm always happy when I'm in Zastron City
Although some few things be pushing us to big cities
I'm talking standard of living, the jobs, the universities
Another disadvantage in Zastron is these politics
But I will never go deeper in that topic
Because they won't be able to dig me up
The only thing they know is coming up with excuses and them stories
But I'm a grown-up person, no bedtime stories
Of course, I'm a dream chaser but I ain't really wanna sleep now
Before I become a striker and reach the goals I inked down
Within my book that I'm the author of, that I call Life
The only one my parents gave to me, so I have to get it right
I won't stop 'til I make them proud
I do this for me and my family and for my town

So, whether you're chilling on the corner with your homies
Or maybe thinking very hard cause you're lonely
I know others are at the shop now like "Help me"
Whether we speak or not, know that you're my homie
Even if you hate me with all your life, my homie
I'm not in a hurry, I'm gonna make it slowly
I pray for my city, and homie when you hear this song
Open up your heart and be sure that you love Zastron

I was born in this place, I'm proud of the Free State
I'm showing love to everybody who's part of the Free State
I give off this energy like nobody is sad in this place
Like electrons, I'm in an excited state
I get to hear these people say that life is a race
And it's not, you're gonna find me in my own pace
And everybody else does, it's not the same page
We're not the same age, we can't play the same game
Even if we do, we can't have the same gauge
Others can be having the full strength
Other people be like the trains
And other ones be the planes, not the same lane
So, you can't define us by the race
Better stop it right there cause we're one species
Nobody's perfect, what kind of animals are we?
But let me leave it right there for you to figure out
That one is a pun I intend to really mess things up
But not in a bad way, I'm triggering your mood
So, you need to get off the chair or the bed and get moving!

So that Zastron can be growing
Want them beautiful flowers? We better start sowing
Good seeds, so in the future, we enjoy this
Let the next generation to live and explore this
I didn't waste my time at all when I wrote this song
I love my family, my friends, and I love Zastron

Double 9 5 Zero, I know I mention it a lot
Only those who don't understand what it means will get bored
Cause it's important to me to honor it on many songs
Spending a lot of time in this place, here, I was born
It's already on the map, but let us put it on again
This time we don't use the GPS, we're using brains
If it has nothing, now it's time for you to educate
Feeling like nowadays, that's the only way to get away from pain
I know there is some people who like friction
Scared of the truth, so they want me to spit that fiction
That will never happen, I won't speak of some' I've never seen
I don't wanna sleep yet, to lie now? That won't be me
Take this bed away from me, no, I'm just playing
I'm the one to make it easy for you
But then still ask if you get what I'm saying
Born in Zastron City, where you're staying?
9950, the code that I'm claiming

I know when I do, all my homies do
Only the real ones, the ones born in Zastron too
Those who can tell you of every teacher in Zastron schools
Spent more than 18 years in my Zastron shoes
I thought after the years of wars, we have learnt something
I'm talking Zastron City gang wars, they're still fighting
They still break up in your house, knowing it is wrong
That's why sometimes I feel like getting out of Zastron

The world is a bigger place but it's ending, understand me?
The devil's work is carried out daily
In this small place we're living in
Best believe, hell is where you're standing!
It's hard to see the fork, but the fire's always burning
I thought I love this town, but now I fucking hate it!
Thinking of the choruses above, man, how can I change it?
This place full of shit, and killers and some fucking rapists
I'm wishing that the earthquake strikes and get to shake it
The epicentre be the houses of these bad people
The rain is sour, so no time for sugar coats
I will tell the truth like it is, I think it's best that you know
Never censor this music, play it on speakers for the people
They're gonna hate me, they're gonna say I've turned my back
Against my own City, the place that cared for me since birth
But some of those who occupy this place are fucking devils
They're killing others, break in houses, steal from other people
Those who want me to stop, never been through all this shit!
Those are people happy with murders every fucking week!
Ofcause I'm cursing 'cause I'm angry, don't you fucking see?!
How we're living scared, watching backs whenever on streets!
Used to be happy to be home, everything has changed
All I see is ghosts everywhere - Zastron City Graves
That's what the name should be, these people not ashamed
They grew up to be "Shady"; of police? They're "Not Afraid"!

Those who don't want me to talk, never been through all this shit
The fact that I've said it, means that I care, I love this city
Doesn't mean otherwise
When I don't agree with everything that's happening
I just tell the truth as it's supposed be
So, if I keep quiet, that means I hate this city
So, I'll just keep talking about it, until we live in peace
Something that is impossible, a goal that's hard to reach
That's my state of mind, so, the end, is where my rhymes be

Yeah, I hope you see that
