Team - Intellectual

[Intro: Lorde, Illy]

Send the call out, send the call out

Send the call out, send the call out (Yeah)

[Verse 1: Illy]

I give a shout to the team, my shout for the eve

So bottoms up, by my count, in the lead

Sike! I lost count like 2013

Since I've been blowin' up like a Pompeii scene

So send a call out, freedom in the fallout

Carlito on the steps of the courthouse

Celtic blood, send the best of the north south

Now, I'm sendin' down under back north on my tour routes

Ow, yeah, this rat bag's gone

Keep a wide circle but the bonds mad strong

Air Max or black slacks or backpacks on

They all want in the same, my #squad

It's been a minute but I'm back on the job

No less than you'd pick it, no rest for the wicked, boy

Big time, no guesswork to get it

If I ain't Australia's best, I'm right there with 'em, like oh

[Chorus: Lorde, Illy]

We live in cities

You'll never see on-screen

Not very pretty, but we

Sure know how to run things

Livin' in ruins

Of a palace within my dreams

And you know

We're on each other's team (Yeah)

[Verse 2: Illy]

The older I get, the better I get

Real ones stay down till the finishin' steps

I buck trends, took a trip to the left, some took offence

So they callin' popcorn like a cinemaplex, they bitter I guess

But I maintain my smile

'Cause my team, we don't need to explain our style - nope!

Fuck hangin' round where honesty's not

We got it from London to Launceston locked up

And you can throw away the key (Throw away the key!)

As relentless as the California heat (California heat!)

The criticisers tryna go from A to B

I've gone from [?] to bein' able to be

Anywhere I feel like so, please, I don't stand snakes

I feel it in the grip in their handshake

I spend my time and gift on my fan base

Family first, whole clique goin' HAM and they say

[Chorus: Lorde, Lorde & Illy, Illy]

We live in cities

You'll never see on-screen

Not very pretty, but we

Sure know how to run things

Livin' in ruins (Ruins)

Of a palace within my dreams

And you know

We're on each other's team

And you know

We're on each other's team

And you know, and you know

And you know
