Illy
Great To Be Here
[Intro]
“It’s great to be here”
Uh-huh, yeah
“Great to be here”
[?] I see you, baby
“It’s great to be here in your arms”
Yeah, now this is me, Illy
Oh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, Illy
Yeah

[Verse 1]
First off, I want to thank you all
To everyone involved for all of your support
I couldn’t do it without ya
I mean it from my core
Without you here, it wouldn’t be real
I’d still be in my bedroom rhymin’ to myself
Yeah, rappin’ up my wall
But passion for the cause
Turned a little somethin’ to a little bit more
And I ain’t got a problem at all, na
I’m in a league with the apes and with the greats
And tell these kids to stick to their playpen
As far as I’m concerned, my flow’s the illest out (yep)
Regarding Melbourne, I still carry the Frankston line on my back
Like a big bad ass tattoo (Frankston line)
So, when they see me “that’s you”
And when they see you, that’s me too
My Frankston line dudes, come on
[Chorus]
“It’s great to be here, great to be here”
Thank you, I ain’t goin’ nowhere, man
“It’s great to be here in your arms”
I’m right here
“Thank you, baby, thank you, baby, oh”
Yeah
“It’s great to be here, great to be here”
Thank you, I ain’t goin’ nowhere, man
“It’s great to be here in your arms”
I’m right here
“Thank you, baby, thank you, baby, oh”
Yeah

[Verse 2]
I was just a little fucker, Frankston liner, chucker upper
Beefin’ with my old folks, no big brother
I’ve never had much, but I never had nothing
Can’t say I suffered anything tougher than you’d expect from some scruffy head teenage punk getting’ messed
Huh, actin’ he’s livin’ on the edge was a must
But livin’ on the edge wasn’t us
Closest I came to death was my stomach pump
What can I say? The Aussie blokes love a drunk
What can I say? The Aussie girls love a trick
What can I say? I played the role comfortably
And I ain’t sayin’ that I done it hard or by any measure
I just recall and record it better
This is for you, you’re the reason I wrote this
The reason I bit that, my reason to give back
[Chorus]
“It’s great to be here, great to be here”
Thank you, I ain’t goin’ nowhere, man
“It’s great to be here in your arms”
I’m right here
“Thank you, baby, thank you, baby, oh”
“It’s great to be here, great to be here”
Thank you, I ain’t goin’ nowhere, man
“It’s great to be here in your arms”
I’m right here
“Thank you, baby, thank you, baby, oh”

[Outro]
Yeah, man
“It’s great to be here, great to be here”
So, when it’s all said and done, what matters is [?], man
“It’s great to be here in your arms”
People’ll go “you’re back”
“I’m right here”
“Thank you, baby, thank you, baby, oh”
And this is a thank you to the people who have mine
“It’s great to be here, great to be here”
Just no super star shit
It’s just me, my fam’, my mates
“It’s great to be here in your arms”
The people supportin’ me
“I’m right here”
What up motherfuckers?
“Thank you, baby, thank you, baby, oh”
Yeah
