[Intro: Illy & Jimmy Nice]
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Yeah, Burn City stand up
Double S, One Dayers
Illy, Illy
Syd City in the house
Illy we looking fly as fuck, man, we joyriding
We joyriding on these toys

[Verse 1: Jimmy Nice]
For now they call me Mr
Nice, y'all stuck in the pits and I'm glad
You're mad your boat's gone and y'all missed the flight for me
So on, so ready, no wrong
You're tripping off your Haterade mixed with ice, and I—
I know exactly how the scene does
Just between us I'm kinda proud that, Sydney's cleaned up
No diss to my predecessors, I heed your lessons
But Sydney looked dead till I put my team up
You could stumble from the sky and
In all your troubles you could find I'm flyer
Spit it like a scene from The Wire, baby, I'm clean
Still the biggest oughta check my priors
Toy boys, some jack the flow for ransom
If I get my hands on a slice I come back with a loaf
That's food for the family, red light, greed light
Who don't want my team to eat right, huh?

[Chorus: Cisco Taraves & Illy]
We don't stop, we don't stop
For no red lights
Uh-uh, say this shit don't stop
We ride till the end of the line, give me the green light
But to me, all I see is
The gleam of the green in the lights
That's the family, red light, green light
Who don't want my team to eat right, huh?
We don't stop, we don't stop
For no red lights
Uh-uh, say this shit don't stop
We ride till the end of the line, give me the green light
But to me, all I see is
The gleam of the green in the lights
That's the family, red light, green light
Who don't want my team to eat right, huh?

[Verse 2: Solo]
It's been a minute since I picked up the pen
But Illy put the call out, so I'm 'bout to buck the trend
And ball out, but I'm not talking bucks my friend
I'm not rich in what I got, but what I got to give
Sitting in gridlock city traffic
Monday madness got us stuck in stasis
But I'ma do a Tracy Chapman
Hop a fast car, hit the gas, never look backwards
See we come pretty far since sixteen years
Way more than I could fit in these sixteen bars
A couple deadlines later
We made a couple headlines, got the haters up past their bed time
So from the Inner West lines to wherever these lines take me
We hit the brakes if we have to
But if not (But if not,) we non stop (We non stop)
Suckers seeing red, all I'm seeing's the green light

[Chorus: Cisco Taraves & Illy]
We don't stop, we don't stop
For no red lights
Uh-uh, say this shit don't stop
We ride till the end of the line, give me the green light
But to me, all I see is
The gleam of the green in the lights
That's the family, red light, green light
Who don't want my team to eat right, huh?
We don't stop, we don't stop
For no red lights
Uh-uh, say this shit don't stop
We ride till the end of the line, give me the green light
But to me, all I see is
The gleam of the green in the lights
That's the family, red light, green light
Who don't want my team to eat right, huh?

[Verse 3: Nick Lupi]
[?]
As soon as the lights change I'm with a baby
Everything in my range, yeah I hit it, I'm crazy
Lupi: It's so good, it's so gravy
These rappers shook, looking like they just seen Swayze
There ain't much more than a cinema screen
As I stare back eyes with a villainous gleam
So what you wan' do, girl? Just give me the green
And I'ma do what I do, yeah, get you to dream
Soon as I hit Melly, Illy on the cell
And he got some five broads at the telly and I wonder
If they only wanna fuck 'cause I'm in Spit Syndicate
But, more importantly, do I give a shit?
Oh no, not even a little bit, I'm a boss
I'm interstate, then any minute taking off
Nouveau riche, Nick the Don in the inner west
Get busy boys and we getting it on, I'm gone

[Chorus: Cisco Taraves & Illy]
We don't stop, we don't stop
For no red lights
Uh-uh, say this shit don't stop
We ride till the end of the line, give me the green light
But to me, all I see is
The gleam of the green in the lights
That's the family, red light, green light
Who don't want my team to eat right, huh?
We don't stop, we don't stop
For no red lights
Uh-uh, say this shit don't stop
We ride till the end of the line, give me the green light
But to me, all I see is (Yeah)
The gleam of the green in the lights (Yeah, uh-huh, uh-huh)
That's the family, red light, green light ([?])
Who don't want my team to eat right, huh? ([?])

[Verse 4: Illy]
So I gotta match the attitude, still much respect
To those that blaze the same avenues I use
But to come from the shadows in the city of kings
Can't give a shit what anyone thinks, so with that
I said, "Fuck waiting in the wings" Leapfrog them
Jog and I'd still run rings, no problem
Dig no turbo, no tints, fuck it, I don't need rims
I could tram it and have your girlfriend want dibs
And I don't drop [?], my city's best list
Reads 'Illy, Phrase, Pegz', so anybody else
Wanna get their toes wet, jump in (Come on)
But take it as a warning, I won't hit the brake, I hit the horn
So if you in my sights, goodnight ([?])
And baby, if they stopping at the red light wave 'em goodbye
[?] from I Dub to Frankston line
A young gun with a [?], allow me to remind 'em
That

[Chorus: Cisco Taraves & Illy]
We don't stop, we don't stop
For no red lights
Uh-uh, say this shit don't stop
We ride till the end of the line, give me the green light
But to me, all I see is
The gleam of the green in the lights
That's the family, red light, green light
Who don't want my team to eat right, huh?
We don't stop, we don't stop
For no red lights
Uh-uh, say this shit don't stop
We ride till the end of the line, give me the green light
But to me, all I see is
The gleam of the green in the lights
That's the family, red light, green light
Who don't want my team to eat right, huh?
