[00:00.00]Prospect - Nesian Mystik
[00:18.63]Small town boy got big city dreams
[00:23.33]He feels the chill of the night through his jeans
[00:27.74]It bites the skin like the knife he carries
[00:32.50]Shadows his face underneath his hoody
[00:37.21]Walks to a home that the government owns
[00:41.69]Holes fill the walls where the photos should go
[00:45.93]Last night's takeaways is still in the stove
[00:50.01]He takes a
[00:51.02]Seat at the table and go over his notes
[00:54.68]He's trying make it
[00:55.95]While trying to hide
[00:59.50]Two edges
[01:00.45]To his double life
[01:03.68]School of
[01:04.45]Thought to his left
[01:06.23]And hard knocks
[01:07.43]To his right
[01:09.60]He's just trying survive
[01:13.91]Streetwise way beyond his years
[01:18.36]Can launch his fists like he handles Shakespeare
[01:22.96]Nobody knows and he doesn't care
[01:27.97]All that matters are the colours he wears
[01:32.21]Hungry for something that he can't eat
[01:36.85]Calms his nerves with every word that he sees
[01:41.24]Lights his cigarette has a cup of tea
[01:44.98]He takes a seat at the table and continues to read
[01:49.60]He's trying make it
[01:50.85]While trying to hide
[01:54.47]Two edges
[01:55.24]To his double life
[01:58.57]School of
[01:59.02]Thought to his left
[02:00.89]And hard knocks
[02:02.70]To his right
[02:04.51]He's just trying survive
[02:08.79]Rise and shine but nothing looks bright
[02:10.19]Books camouflaged by cans
[02:11.75]He jumps on his bike
[02:13.43]Dad gave it as a gift last night
[02:15.19]Wonder if he's changed for good this time
[02:17.62]Shrugs and hopes for the best
[02:19.08]Got his headphones on
[02:20.28]Prepares for the test mouthing words to the song
[02:24.31]Rob heard that wrong
[02:26.98]Miss gave him props on a job well done
[02:28.98]“An A parents must be proud of you son”
[02:31.14]Smiling back with a nod little does she know
[02:33.25]Enrolled himself with no help from home
[02:36.29]Hides the bike in the bushes
[02:37.74]Scared it might be hot so he doesn't want to push it
[02:40.23]Game face hard
[02:41.21]Raise hoodie full mast
[02:42.23]Set sail through the yard
[02:43.47]Play jester of the class
[02:44.34]He's trying make it
[02:45.72]While trying to hide
[02:49.18]Two edges
[02:50.16]To his double life
[02:53.41]School of
[02:54.24]Thought to his left
[02:55.69]And hard knocks
[02:57.25]To his right
[02:59.26]He's just trying survive
