about

Due to COVID-19, 2020 has been tough for us in Melbourne, Australia with lockdown restrictions throughout winter and spring. Our only hope is that summer brings hope. This is not a sad song or super happy song but rather a song that I hope reminds me of what's going on around me now in the future.

lyrics

Okay
It’s about to be a very very strange summer
(Strange summer)
I need everybody to stay indoors
Nobody come out

In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(Woo hoo)
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(Schools closed down)
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(Shops closed down)
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(Woo hoo)

This year i’ve been amazed how crazy it is
How life dropped from 100-0 it is
How doctors saved lives how heroic it is
How truth lies spread how easy it is
How leaders tell lies how crazy it is
How everybody important how united we are
How racially diverse how humane we are
How hope is important how ready we are
How nothing is assured how life could change
Roll the buff so big puff distress away
Let her grind on me
8 figure with the hips on it
When reality hits you
What you what you going to do
(What you going to do)

No jobs
No shows no bags secured
And i tell you kids
It was a very very strange time to be a rapper

In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(Woo hoo)
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(Can’t even hit the club)
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(Can’t even go to church)
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown

Okay fresh out the house
Swoosh on my feet
Police on my neck ain’t gotta a mask on face
I beat the red lights ghost streets what a drive
I swear am on fire might take a trip to Hawaii
Take a walk to the park you know its all we can do
Take a walk to the grocery store pick up girls
(Pick up the girls)
Take a look in the mirror see you added little weight
Take a look in your soul don’t let depression take a toll

(Yeah we about to jump the wall)
(We no want no police at the high rise)

It’s been a minute seen ‘em in here
Standing in the lobbies no smoke on the barbie
How do we feed the babies
Spend the stimulus check on the ladies
A lot of time wasted on twitch
What a attitude vibe flow when i switch
Kick it with the real get to know which is which

How I flow like lava hopeful like Lennon
Burst your head like melon and don’t stain my Lenin
My soul food the melody I don’t know about you
Plus energy remedy i don’t know about you
This type of vibe get your stomach turned
Ready to puke
Northside am the foster kid
Let the kids lay bars and incubate into nukes
Throw them on the Westside Eastside Southside
Here we go

In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(In the middle of lockdown)
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(In the middle of lockdown)
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(In the middle of lockdown)
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
In the middle of lockdown
(In the middle of lockdown)

Welcome to the village. Let the chief himself show you around.

He will share with you stories about his life in Melbourne, Australia where he migrated with family back in 2017.
My attempts at professional music composition started in 2019. However, the chief has always had a soft spot and ear for all music genres, [Some may say music is his passion].

You don’t know.”
