city to come - under the underground lyrics

[intro: survinylist & g.i.b.]

ayo, gatekeeper
where’s that city?
you’re talking about a city, right?

it’s the place of enchantment
city with a story
reserved for future travelers

future travelers, eh?
that’s, that sounds familiar…

[hook: g.i.b.]

we’re homesick for the place we’ve never been
the faintest glimpse, the memories dim
we pen hymns for the city to come
infinite chase, facing meridian sun
(x2)

[verse 1: g.i.b.]

the known ordеr sort of pr*ne to fold
for each bold step wе got eroding souls
controlling tolls, as machines take hold
somehow it seems we’ve been down this road before
we keep repeating defeat, blue pill eating as
we seeking deceit, discrete thieving as we creeping to meet
the tear streaks down the side of the cheek
confide in the meek, in need of breathing sighs of relief

signs in the reef, strong currents and rising peaks
each speaking, entropic increase
whole cosmos enslaved to decay
enraged fray, yo, they stubborn so slow to assuage

the hopeful struggle, watching ‘em prey
heart aching with groaning dismay
cascading effects, we question what’s next
best directed towards the cosmic quest

[hook: g.i.b.]

we’re homesick for the place we’ve never been
the faintest glimpse, the memories dim
we pen hymns for the city to come
infinite chase, facing meridian sun
(x2)

[verse 2: survinylist]

no slums
no guns
no more venomous tongues
we get it done
having fun
in meridian sun
never gridlocked
yo the transit’s advanced
organized in the skies
like auroras enhanced
one fam, no strangers
to bring the dangers
we goin’ places
no borders
no cameras to trace us

paced at the speed of trust
no exchanges
like banks or blockchains
that brought gains rapacious

clinics obsolete, helix complete, we’re ageless
sicknesses beaten cuz the city’s an oasis

never lacking anything
no matter what the case is

but myriads of obstacles
man still faces

time periods echo
in built places

mad revelations
from planning the sp*ces
but then again we’ve never seen
eternal innovation

a marathon ahead
gotta learn a little patience

[bridge: quadra]

homesick…
pen hymns…
for the city to come…

[verse 3: dr. eight]

homesick for the place
escape the rat race
and the taste that it leaves
deep in my brains

reflections of your voice
they keep guiding me
i walk in the shadows of my mind
quietly

but is it all real i keep finding glitches
the riches we be chasing they placing fixes
in the system in real time
control*c
trying to force with my own ocd

at the verge of the world looking over my shoulder
deep in the abyss i hear voices of older people
they chanting hymns i never heard
oh that’s what i thought but i know every word

it’s an unknown language
but i follow the symbols
i see the math behind it
and what it resembles
it’s a system of systems
that holds it together
i’ve seen this before
it was all in the letter

with the cryptic message that i didn’t understand
i threw it all away way back with my plans
but now that i get it, i’m going to go get it
yo, whatever the cost, whatever i lost

and right on the moment that figure appears
he writes a single word in the sand and it feels like
it all comes together it’s cracking the code
makes the blind see just like it was told
a set of instructions with stories of old
talking about the new city to come, the new home
i write it all down when the figure starts moving
he says the only way to the city is through him
and all of a sudden i’m alone in my room
lying on my bed listening to this tune
with a pen and paper and i write it all down
as part of this song from under the underground

[outro: g.i.b.]

we’re homesick for the place we’ve never been
the faintest glimpse, the memories dim
we pen hymns for the city to come
infinite chase, facing meridian sun
