Requiem (AU) - Up North lyrics

[Verse 1: Requiem] Step to stage Requiem vicious as I kick to breaks So many bars duck or get stuck by the ricochet Chargin', clashin', hyped up till in a state Crushin' beats while Cam Bluff diggin' in the crate The game's a competition and I'm here to win it mate Seems the Northern Territory got me in a state Chip on my shoulder on a mission to innovate Don't wanna just do it, make sure I did it great Building with new friends since I moved interstate Next level step up, allow me to demonstrate Spit fire, smokin' studio need to ventilate Aim to educate, escalate as rhyme resonates Elevate, like a troppo home kid believe me In shorts and Polo, all year how you see me Half the year steamy, the other half breezy Rep the NT from Kulgera to the Tiwis [Hook: Requiem, Kouf & Skank] From the Centre to the Top End never one to rock trends NT shapin' our style From the desert to the tropics, red dirt to forests Visit you'll be stayin' a while [Verse 2: Kouf] Take a trip in my headspace I been stuck in there for like 10 days back in the 10th grade A fresh face See everywhere that I went, it was me and my lot Rollin' out, turn the motor on, yeah you know I got Scandalous rhymes on Vanderlin Drive Straight ragdoll manhandling lines See we about to set it off like we landed on landmines You know we off the hook like dial tones in landlines Children of the night burst in the mayhem See Req best described it, early in the AM And yep, you can blame it on the rain game playin' Bet up north reppin' till a hearse that I lay in Forever till I'm gone, forever in a song Forever two feet on the ground that I'm on But see, anyone can tag along Don't mean to sound so damn territorial man It's just where I'm from [Hook: Requiem, Kouf & Skank] From the Centre to the Top End never one to rock trends NT shapin' our style From the desert to the tropics, red dirt to forests Visit you'll be stayin' a while [Verse 3: Skank] I'm getting back on the road again Heading north and I'm gonna soak it in Steppin' forth from the Centre settin' course reppin' for whatever Home I'm in, when we rollin' in Trust in me, Sietta James You No Longer Hurt like seeing Sietta play I can get a little cray like when we are getting rain Always mobbin' with my dogs but I never let ‘em stray I'm the Mick Dundee of rap in this country That's not a rhyme, this is a rhyme Catch us, in Dundee cracking this stubby Fish on the line, brah this is the life Shouts to the Ballards, for us they make Darwin Feels so good like dim sims and Dave Garnham This is where my heart is, my master plan From the red sands I stand to up the path in Arnhem Land [Hook: Requiem, Kouf & Skank] From the Centre to the Top End never one to rock trends NT shapin' our style From the desert to the tropics, red dirt to forests Visit you'll be stayin' a while From the Centre to the Top End never one to rock trends NT shapin' our style From the desert to the tropics, red dirt to forests Visit you'll be stayin' a while
