lyrics

(verse 1)
from 59th to 125th
time and space get ripped
warped in a world where a rainbow is
trains on a track trying to get through quick
transport all sort - miscellaneous things
the fabric, cloth of metropolis lives
between deep rocks and the hardest of bricks
Zs get caught, its cot, its crib
taught hip hop, meant a lot to the kids
for some its job trying profit a bit
not under the sun still hot need a drink
artisans starve while the rats are the rich
express for the stressed and the best in the biz
no messages here just thoughts in your wig
skip 7 stops till the one two fifth
lest we forget the last 8 minutes

(bridge)
we going up
we going down

(chorus x2)
from 59th to 125th
the world outside continues to live
while we down here just taking a trip
get off your stop but never forget

(verse 2 - Illustrate)
Damn, they left our trains to rot
I lost my train of thought
Whether cars or planes I was trained to jot
Down my dreams between major stops
Hey, I give major props
To the drivers and the riders who light the way
They inspire this journey where i escape
Next destination just a swipe away
From point a to point b
I stare at adjoined seats
And I see people looking at me
I look back and wonder like Stevie
I think what was I supposed to write
What was I supposed to read
who am I supposed to be
We on the brink at break neck speed
I mean we Soar through the sky,
Barrel through the tunnels
We deep inside the dungeon
I'm wondering how to solve the puzzle
I mean I'm bound to always hustle
Bound to be so down to ride that I miss the shuttle
Love to get lost in the jungle
I swear Man I almost Had it
It Went away like it was Magic
I missed my stop I don't Panic
Cause down here i'm bound to go Savage
