The Underground (feat. Classified, Solo) - Hilltop Hoods[00:00:00]
We went from spitting jams to fifty fans in a little cramped room[00:00:06]
A shoebox you couldn't fit a shoe in to touring[00:00:10]
Switzerland with my man in a mini-van[00:00:13]
Being the man of the minute[00:00:15]
Can happen in a minute man[00:00:17]
And it's funny [00:00:18]
I've seen buddies that I trust turn away[00:00:19]
'Cause money can't buy[00:00:21]
You love but it can earn you hate[00:00:21]
And none of you gave a f**k till the movement went large[00:00:23]
Now every crew is making music [00:00:26]
Every dude has got bars[00:00:27]
Now every half-a** bar fly up in the bar rhymes[00:00:29]
We sit about spitting[00:00:31]
'Bout the dark and the hard times[00:00:32]
But got perspective on[00:00:34]
The fighting for the crowns and such[00:00:35]
When we encountered and[00:00:37]
Old pal who had been down on his luck[00:00:37]
In some Volleys pushing trolleys eating soup from a tin[00:00:39]
My girls like golly man these pollie's aren't improving a thing[00:00:42]
Well swap your worries for some Bolly swap your suit for some wings[00:00:44]
And fly with us we light it up and it's a beautiful thing[00:00:47]
It exploded the underground [00:00:51]
They say it's gonna happen the underground[00:00:56]
It exploded The underground [00:01:01]
They say it's gonna happen the underground[00:01:06]
That's where I started at the days of Walkman's and starter hats[00:01:11]
The open mic nights mastering the art of rap[00:01:14]
We man made underground like an artifact[00:01:17]
We don't need to worry when the market crash[00:01:19]
I'm from the bottom bottom of new Scotland[00:01:22]
Planted all my seeds watered them then watched it blossom[00:01:24]
Then they try to tell me over time we'd be forgotten rotten[00:01:27]
Thinking that you're gonna keep me boxed in Nonsense[00:01:30]
Hilltop and Class rock till your noggins nodding[00:01:33]
You can walk in my shoes but never fit in my jeans[00:01:35]
I do this with no option[00:01:38]
Till my body's old and rotten and exhausted [00:01:40]
Keep it going[00:01:41]
'Cause I'm living my dream[00:01:42]
Till the grave we'll spit the pain and [00:01:43]
When it comes to picture painting[00:01:45]
We might be the illest rated with the visuals illustrated[00:01:46]
That's ill communication [00:01:48]
Therapy for life without the rehabilitation [00:01:50]
Keep waiting I'm about to blow up[00:01:53]
It exploded the underground [00:01:55]
They say it's gonna happen the underground[00:02:00]
It exploded The underground [00:02:05]
They say it's gonna happen the underground[00:02:10]
We about to blow it up but we all started this as amateur[00:02:15]
Carving out a path was a hardship for the traveller[00:02:18]
It said that raps a façade you'll never manage it[00:02:21]
In these parts I guess it's our scars that give us character[00:02:24]
We misfits and slackers at risk kids or hackers[00:02:26]
With a wish list sick of doing six shifts at Macca's[00:02:29]
From listeners to rappers prestigious to hapless[00:02:31]
I don't need a gift to know that this sh*t is backwards[00:02:34]
When done officially another visionary[00:02:37]
Will lights the flame [00:02:39]
Write their name in their sweat blood and infamy[00:02:40]
It's gutter symphony f**k the industry [00:02:42]
Let them come we're the ones carving history[00:02:44]
So we rhyme for the hurt and poor hard work and for[00:02:47]
International heard applaud to local suburban tour[00:02:50]
Ya'll gave a purpose for the roar when the curtains draw[00:02:53]
Furthermore ask yourself what you're searching for [00:02:56]
I'm about to blow up[00:02:58]
The underground[00:03:03]
Follow me to a place I like to go[00:03:04]
Liner notes are signposts to find that which lies below[00:03:06]
Born in eighty eight so I came in late[00:03:08]
To find for the first time in life I felt right at home[00:03:11]
Through the growing pains and hostile take overs[00:03:14]
People trying to put us down like Beethoven[00:03:17]
We stayed strong and remained focused[00:03:20]
Until they had no other choice[00:03:22]
But to stand up and take notice[00:03:23]
Never thought what I wrote on a page back in the day[00:03:25]
Would ever have me catching a plane[00:03:28]
Or rapping up on a stage[00:03:30]
Staring out at the crowd in amazement[00:03:31]
Thinking back on the days when[00:03:34]
We were confined to the limitations of the basement[00:03:35]
The subterranean kids became the main event[00:03:38]
I pay respect to those who spent days laying foundations[00:03:41]
Countdown to detonation[00:03:44]
It exploded the underground [00:03:46]
They say it's gonna happen the underground[00:03:52]
It exploded The underground [00:03:57]
They say it's gonna happen the underground[00:04:02]
