back in ballarat - sculleywag lyrics
[verse 1]
streets ain’t clean, got the grime and the trash
some folks caught up in the mess, tryna stash
eshays in the alleys, junkies on the block
the towns still home, through the sh*t and shock
parks overrun with chaos in sight
street fights take place under the streetlight
but even with the struggle, there’s a vibe that’s real
people got their battles, but the heart you can feel
graffiti tells stories, dark and bright
walls covered in art, and some just ain’t right
rumors spreading fast, like wildfire on breeze
but city’s got hеart, and it’s never at easе
from empty bottles to the broken*down cars
town’s got its flaws, like the scars and the bars
there’s a sense of pride that you can’t erase
in the mess and the noise, a familiar face
[chorus]
back in ballarat, see the highs and the lows
got the dark with the light, and the sh*t always shows
from the streets to the parks, where the struggle still grows
back in town, yeah, it’s a mix of both blows
through the grime and the shine, where the truth’s exposed
got the highs with the lows, the city just flows
even when it’s rough, still got love in the air
ballarat’s home, with its grit and flair
[verse 2]
there’s a rough edge with the fights and the strain
people struggle hard, just tryna stay sane
pubs get rowdy, with the tales that they spill
even when it’s f*cked up, you respect the will
from the battles with drugs to the fights in the park
life’s a little wild, but there’s light in the dark
still, got the spots, like the lakes and the greens
in the chaos, there’s calm, and it’s more than it seems
from the late*night drama to the small*town news
every day’s a hustle, but there’s still time to choose
moments of peace in the f*cked up mess
city’s got a way to make you feel blessed
in the hard times we face, and the joy we embrace
this city’s got a rhythm that you can’t replace
through the struggle and strife, there’s a true place
ballarat’s my home, and i’m coming back through
[chorus]
yeah, i’m back in ballarat, see the highs and the lows
got the dark with the light, and the sh*t always shows
from the streets to the parks, where the struggle still grows
back in ballarat, yeah, it’s a mix of both blows
through the grime and the shine, where the truth’s exposed
got the highs with the lows, yeah, the city just flows
even when it’s rough, still got love in the air
ballarat’s my home, with its grit and its flair
