[Dazastah] {Optamus, Shahbaz}
Think they're ready for the encore, you want more? {What for?}
Bringing back the essence of nascence of the brain's corridors
Echoing through your head {Bouncing through the rubble}
Like mother nagging ya, to clean up this mess
Cause trouble lurks, but I'm not here to teach ya
Responsibility, imagine me, as drunk talking silly gibberish
Send ya girl into a trifle, jiggle and wiggle and desert without innocence
{Cause it's hard for a dirty mind to bust nice rhymes}
And the beat's nitty gritty, bouncing like some double D titties
{The Perth city urban masters}
That's when you're asking for more like portal
And I've used it, abusing the mic
Like drunk teenagers when pigs try and break up their night
You won't find another crew that can do the Downsyde
Energy, shaking the floor with encore

[Hook X2 - Dazastah, Shahbaz] {Optamus}
Did you want more, what for? We drop this raw
{We be doing it on stage till the curtain call}
Did you want more, what for? We drop this raw
"I'm saying hi to all the cuties from around the way" <-- Big L

[Optamus] {Dazastah, Shahbaz} (All)
I've never had enough, I'm just spitting the words
Yeah the feeling that I'm kicking, yo I'll never be turned
If you a special desert, but this is just the odd dirt
(Take a seat for a minute cause it's just being served)
I see, OK, OK, it's time to magnify {His life}
Under microscopes so you can see what I'm like
(What the Babbles is all, what the Babbles is known)
To be rocking with my crew or just travel alone
I got the knack of this flow (Yeah the slippery lips)
All the same, said it like before, your ears get fixed
Into the spell I cast, or the web I weave
Or the magic that cooking when I'm puffing on trees
Give me a toke, yeah sometimes I'm just broke
Bare bone, knowing well this seems an overkill
(Yeah we came, we're back, for an encore
Listen to us spit it, now I know you want more)

[Hook X2]

[Shahbaz] (All)
(E-N-C-O-R-E
Get ready - rock steady)
C'mon, plod ya head like it's heavy
Back and forth, forth and back
Like the fatal when the DJ's scratching the track
Hey yo (Bring that beat back)
Here comes the snare, the kick - beware in whips
Snapping necks, crushing bones like pulpits
With full quip, my fly style lick
(Hit you where it hurts from the east coast to Perth)
Not concerned about turd from Universal
Thinking about taking it further
Crossing international borders
If can't afford us (Book some other cheap act!)
If you need raps, we speak facts
Like the club, you'll be saying I need that
It's time for me to cruise like the Terminator
(I'll be back, I'll be back)

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head &gt; Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
