Port Said (Arabic: بورسعيد Būr Sa'īd) is a city that lies in north east Egypt extending about 30 kilometres (19 mi) along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, north of the Suez Canal, with an approximate population of 603,787 (2010). The city was established in 1859 during the building of the Suez Canal.
Port Said has been ranked the first among the Egyptian cities according to the Human Development Index in 2009 and 2010, the economic base of the city is fishing and industries, like chemicals, processed food, and cigarettes. Port Said is also an important harbour for exports of Egyptian products like cotton and rice, but also a fueling station for ships that pass through the Suez Canal. It thrives on being a duty-free port, as well as a tourist resort especially during summer. It is home to the Lighthouse of Port Said (the first building in the world built from reinforced concrete).
There are numerous old houses with grand balconies on all floors, giving the city a distinctive look. Port Said's twin city is Port Fuad, which lies on the eastern bank of the canal. The two cities coexist, to the extent that there hardly is any town centre in Port Fuad. The cities are connected by free ferries running all through the day, and together they form a metropolitan area with over a million residents that extends both on the African and the Asian sides of the Suez Canal.

Break everything you love
After all there's no hope or God above
Looking at the bright side
At the bright side
Kill everything inside
It's better to be dead
Than always have to hide
Looking at the bright side
At the bright side
Give me just one more chance to think about it
There's more to life than said
And there's more to me than met
And I need to pick myself up
Off the ground before I sink into it
Why do I feel like this?
Whenever I get up I'm right back in the shit
Looking at the bright side
At the bright side
As long as I get my fix
I watch the pain dissolve
There's nothing left but bliss
Looking at the bright side
At the bright side
Give me just one more chance to think about it
There's more to life than said
And there's more to me than met
And I need to pick myself up
Off the ground before I sink into it
I need to rebuild my mind so I'm strong again
I need to rebuild my life so I'm full within
'Cause there's more to life than said
And there's more to me than met
And I need to pick myself up
Pray to the east, pray to the east...
Yeah
I got my man in the studio
One of the illest mc's in the world
Rhyme inspector percee p
Kick some flavor for 94, baby
Pray to the east, pray to the east
Before you fuck around, nigga, pray to the east ( 2x )
[ percee p ]
Your skills lack while I'm still strapped
With real raps, and feel that I should kill wack
Niggas that peel caps and that ill crap
Bigger threat than you with your tec when I rip the set
Niggas get smoked like a cigarette, so hit the deck
Watch ya chin, nigga, ho-chi-min when I rock my shit
When it comes to props I get lots of it
I can get madonna, money, your threats are minor
And bet you find your girl with a wet pijama
Drippin with my cassette behind her
Got more band trail than your hand's sellin
Fans scalin, jam railin like it's van halen
Skills scored high on billboards, I kill frauds
Get real applausesteal broads' hearts at will force
Hate a mark, skills lay a squad, and pray to god
Don't say a hard verse worse than a plate of lard
Percee p wanted for first degree
Murder, since you heard it first from me, you worshipped me
Fuckin threat, you heard nothin yet
No need for buckin tecs, but rappers to duck in fret or upper-jet
Mastered art, yo, when I flow something drastic starts
Speed up a bastard's heart, great like jurassic park
I cut you up like a sharp machete blade
Swear to god, only card you can pull if it's medicaid
Done with all this gun shit, fuck who you run with, son split
The only thing you shoot is your dick, and it comes quick
[ maestro fresh wes ]
I'm like a bat outta hell tonight, niggas compell to bite
I swell the mic when I like, fatter than cellulite
I injure ears of engineers, sendin em into cheers
Bringin my peers into tears, don't interfere
Critics know I pack a wicked blow
I put you in a clinic, so forget it like riddick bowe
Nigga, go to hell, I flow so well
Find another brother or mother or hoe to tell
Or a bro to jeal', how's my jam gonna sell? very well
I send you back because you bring the wack
I'm into rap, I interact with empty tracks
Locked in, wack muthafuckas are blockin
The top 10 while the black radio jocks spin
The calmer vibe, the modified
I like the harder side, jeffrey dahmer tried, but died
More words than a hour of scrabble, I got the power to battle
Skadaddle or get devoured like the tower of babel
Adversaries are snotty, some compare me to gotti
I bury a body, then carry a shotie
The maestro rips the psycho shit
Brain like a microchip, and i'ma excite you with
The smoother rhythm, sendin mad crews to prison
Who choose to listen while I use my u-4 missiles
Collectin the pesos from a stage show
Gettin fellatio from a h-o (why) because I say so
My ratio expands as I wreck lands
Makin def jams like redman and x clan
I'ma nail the genitalia from australia to somalia
Cause I'm smooth, just like a sailor
I damage em all, bitches give me casual calls
I'm slammin and jammin and rammin they vaginal walls
Drums are fat over funky tracks
Like perce every verse could make your lung collapse
I'm extra-nice, who's next to slice?
Before you step to mics, nigga, check with christ
You better
Pray to the east, pray to the east
What bothers most lying here awake
Is how absurd you've been as of late
You sleep through the healthiest of our days
With bad Ohio grass headaches
You don't think out loud enough
Perhaps Denial's caused this much...
Always thinking on the bright side
Always thinking on it
The one thing to always trust is fate -
It's irony we can't get straight
And it's funny when the weather has its say -
those three day weekends full of rain
Still the times are hardly rough
And you know you should know this much
On my way back from nowhere now
Always tell by my breath somehow
There's no songs worth singing out there
The landscape of inspiration's so bare
No straight jacket on me
Eat my breakfast with employees
And they push this thing even further still
Which they knowingly try to kill
On the bright side
There's never been a right side
Of love to lay on
Remembered or forgotten
You keep it coming, you pour it on
This conclusion is not forgone
When I get lost inside a dream
You know it's time to scrub and to quarantine
On the bright side
There's never been a right side
Of life to live on
Remembered or forgotten
On the bright side
The morning kills the night time
Your life is your time

Walking down the street
And I know that you want to say you're wrong
But I won't let you
I'm being difficult
Cause I can't see the bright side
And I know you'll do it again
I see it in your eyes
Situations come and go
Sometimes they take control
There's no right side
No bright side to this situation
I just find myself deep inside these complications
The promise that awaits me
There's no bright side
I'm looking back on all the promises that you made
And I've realized you can't deliver half the crap you said
Blinded by the lies
Now the exile eyes won't trust you again
Blinded by the lies
There's no right side
No bright side to this situation
I just find myself deep inside these complications
The promise that awaits me
There's no bright side
There's no right side
No bright side to this situation
I just find myself deep inside these complications
The promise that awaits me
There's no bright side
The promise that awaits me
There's no bright side
(No bright side to me...
No bright side to...)
There's no right side
No bright side to this situation
I just find myself deep inside these complications
The promise that awaits me
There's no bright side
There's no right side
No bright side to this situation
I just find myself deep inside these complications
The promise that awaits me
There's no bright side
The promise that awaits me
There's no bright side
There's no right side
There's no right side
There's no right side
There's no right side

Mr.kool must die ya'll, let's erase everything! (4x)
[Verse 1:]
Smile little whores, let's not tease me, I live my life from anxiety, I
Give my words so I love life, I fold my hands, let's pray, good night, I've
Got 5 albums that nobody wants, I keep my money inside my socks, I keep my
Grins, mouth full of teeth, I love my sins, they give me creeps. and I
Don't know, I lost my head, [x2] and this is why we live to die, and I
Don't know, I lost my head, [x2] he swallows tongues just to speak, nuff
Said, and I don't know, I lost my head, sleepless night untangle fibs, my
Birthday suit, might eat my ribs, I close my eyes and burn night lights, I
Play confused, a soulless fright, she tortures me, I love her back, I eat
My words before we snap,
Now I'm uneasy inside my skin, an empty bite, heart made of tin, she corners
Me, I trace my guns, we fall asleep, nowhere to run, now I'm a link for
Empty hugs.
[Hook]
[Verse 2:]
Now god told me to save the whales, place foot in mouth, can't save myself,
He threatens me, I guess I'm happy, can't find my smiles, breath life in
Family, now I'm so plastic, man I'm hungry, my loss of eyes has left me
Cozy, now he tells me find life for purpose, other than lost, I'm just so
Worthless, my costume lies, I'm draped in ink, can't see my thoughts, or
Love to speak, I've lost all hope, please find my grins, my skin feels
Cold need oxygen, just a few more lines, don't call me lazy, I touch
Myself and never think to thank me, people hate me, but, I'm told I'm
Cute, I'm going to sit right here in my birthday suit.
