Blind to It Lyrics

Walkin' through Syd, it's just another night

Saw a bloke get jumped, I stayed outta sight

Knives flash quick, but I don't blink

Ain't my job to say or think

Shops get knocked, I don't speak up

Sirens wail, but I've had enough

I keep my eyes straight ahead

Crime is crime, they'll end up spent

I see it all, but I look away

Blind to it, got nothin' to say

It's easier now to turn my back

Let the streets take over, off the track

Down in Melbs, near the Houso flats

Graffiti on walls, boys duckin' the jacks

Saw a smash and grab, I passed by

No use lookin', no need to try

The shadows creep, but I stay blind

Not my problem, not my kind

Another night, another scene

It's the way it's always been

I see it all, but I look away

Blind to it, got nothin' to say

It's easier now to turn my back

Let the streets take over, off the track

Brizzie's heat, shadows fill the night

Shots go off, but I stay right

Kid runnin' fast, but I don't ask

Not my job to wear that mask

Valley's dark, I don't slow down

Ain't no time for me to drown

I've seen enough, now I'm numb

Turn my back, let it run

I see it all, but I look away

Blind to it, got nothin' to say

It's easier now to turn my back

Let the streets take over, off the track

Balga's hot, deals done at night

I won't look, I ain't got the sight

Saw a car get stripped today

Walked on by, went my own way

Houso blocks, just passin' through

Stayin' clear, just me and you

World's goin' mad, but I stay cool

Ignore it all, that's the rule

I see it all, but I look away

Blind to it, got nothin' to say

It's easier now to turn my back

Let the streets take over, off the track

Up in Woodridge, quiet streets by day

But once it's dark, all's in play

Lads torched a car, watched it burn

So I walked away, not my turn

Kids break in, takin' what they need

But I don't look, I pay no heed

Not my fight, won't step in

I let the city spin

I see it all, but I look away

Ain't my fight, got nothin' to say

It's easier now to turn my back

Let the streets take over, off the track

Crime all 'round, but I stay clear

Blind my eyes, got nothin' to fear

Let the world just do its thing

I'm just here, watchin' it swing
