In the City
I hate the city,
Because I can't stand the pity
Of those who are killed and hurt,
So that's why I live in a small town with roads made up of dirt.
It's far more peaceful over here than there.
And I don't care,
About how "boring" it can be here compared to there
In the city, because around here
We can ride on the back of trucks freely,
I can go through trails
And hear the train going along the rails,
I can even find pretty rocks & shells.
But still, I agree that buying stuff in the city,
Can be great, somehow though...
My hometown is my favourite place...
Born here and everytime I leave
And go there, to the city,
I start to feel unhappy after staying
Away from my home for so long
And just want to go back,
Probably because my little town is where I belong.
The seasonal funs I have are always the ones,
That turn my frowns upside down,
Plus, also, the city has one thing missing and
That is my family, so I am happy I live in this town.
The city just isn't for me,
This town is where I belong.
And it is where I can always hear birds sing their songs
And this is the place I feel strong in,
Nothing can tear my bond with this place...
