Lyrics

Are you ready to be liberated On this sad side city street? Well, the birds have been freed from their cages I got freedom and my youth My name is Brody, I'm from Melbourne Fitzroy Melbourne, Fitzroy Melbourne I grew up on Bell Street, then on Bennett Street My mum kicked out my dad for battery Found a way, found a way She found a way out of spiritual penury Working single mother in an urban struggle Blames herself now 'cause I grew up troubled It hit me I got everything I need It hit me I got everything I need And my one heart felt too much from the start I've seen people come and go, living large and living low You can build up your walls sittin' on death row Let the curtain fall on your murdered soul You can wash it all down, swallow your story Get smacked off your head, go down in drumroll glory You won't solve it, committing self-inflicted crime Go on, pull the trigger, this will be the last time It hit me I got everything I need It hit me I got everything I need, so I speak of the truth, the truth of the heart Like a desperate thirst in a raging drought Hey youth, time flies by There's an everlasting battle for eternal life I love a man from California He's the prettiest thing, we got the same disorder The way you feel is okay It's never gonna change anyway It hit me I got everything I need It hit me I got everything I need Are you ready to be liberated On this sad side city street? Well, the birds have been freed from their cages I got freedom and my youth Yeah, I got freedom and my youth
