Liguria (Italian pronunciation: [liˈɡuːrja], Ligurian: Ligûria; English: Ligury /ˈlɪɡjᵿri/ LIG-ew-ree or LIG-yə-ree) is a coastal region of north-western Italy, with capital Genoa. The region is popular with tourists for its beaches, towns, and cuisine.
Liguria is bordered by France to the west, Piedmont to the north, and Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany to the east. It lies on the Ligurian Sea. The narrow strip of land is bordered by the sea, the Alps and the Apennines mountains. Some mountains rise above 2000 m; the watershed line runs at an average altitude of about 1000 m. The highest point of the region is the summit of Monte Saccarello (2201 m).
The winding arched extension goes from Ventimiglia to La Spezia. Of this, 3,524.08 square kilometres (1,360.65 sq mi) are mountainous (65% of the total) and 891.95 square kilometres (344.38 sq mi) are hills (35% of the total). Liguria's natural reserves cover 12% of the entire region, or 60,000 hectares of land. They are made up of one national reserve, six large parks, two smaller parks and three nature reserves.
The Cinque Terre (Italian pronunciation: [ˈtʃiŋkwe ˈtɛrre]) is a rugged portion of coast on the Italian Riviera. It is in the Liguria region of Italy, to the west of the city of La Spezia. "The Five Lands" comprises five villages: Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. The coastline, the five villages, and the surrounding hillsides are all part of the Cinque Terre National Park and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Over the centuries, people have carefully built terraces on the rugged, steep landscape right up to the cliffs that overlook the sea. Part of its charm is the lack of visible corporate development. Paths, trains and boats connect the villages, and cars cannot reach them from the outside. The Cinque Terre area is a very popular tourist destination.
The villages of the Cinque Terre were severely affected by torrential rains which caused floods and mudslides on October 25, 2011. Nine people were confirmed killed by the floods, and damage to the villages, particularly Vernazza and Monterosso al Mare, was extensive.

Liguria is a narrow strip of land, where man has worked hard to get the most from the earth of this territory. Its excellent climate allows high value crops to be grown: asparagus and purple artichokes. The Chinotto sour orange, a citrus fruit that arrived from China around 1500. And the Ligurian basil, the main ingredient of pesto sauce. Liguria is also a land of olive trees and oil: excellent oil is produced from Taggiasca olives. See more video at http://www.expo.rai.it/youritaly Una stretta lingua di terra, la Liguria, dove l’uomo ha faticato per sfruttare al meglio il territorio. Il clima consente colture redditizie: asparagi e carciofi violetti. Il chinotto, agrume arrivato dalla Cina nel 1500. E il basilico ligure, ingrediente principe del pesto alla genovese.

Verse:
Yo clicked up 40 deep in the street you can find us
Ya we on theology but we be on the grind ya
When we was a youngers only had 2 place to run to
One become an animal, two get out the jungle
So we got our lion on the line bro, that's what we do
Run up on you and your crew and tell ya'll Jesus is the truth
Open air evangelists, relationships we do it all
Backpack still full of tracks with a Johnny Mac, hats to the back and our backs to the wall
Plus I got some homies out there who gon' rep the rock
If you wanna make them stop, you gon' have to bring a choppa
If they get martyred, then we gon' go harder
Share the gospel on death row and let 'em know that they been pardoned
You don't wanna get it started, this is what we do, who we are
1-1-6 to the day we die, ain't tryin to be no superstars
Chicks to the click that'll pull your car?
Usin' the street like cops in cars?
You ain't hear the truth today, I promise we'll be back tomorrow

Trip Lee:
A clique of us is shining rhyming walking talking sharing Christ, very hype
Find us hiding behind him all prepared to fight, very tight
Fighting trying to share the cross. He spared of life
We're living by the blood like we're parasites, get it right
My team carries bunch of high beam blaring lights
Might seem scary but we nice, see we carry life
Light is seen clearly man we're glaring very bright
Check the fleet man we deep so we might seem Barry White
Ever since we heard about the murder how they buried Christ
Eyes upon the cross even though that is a scary sight
But that was the merger we converted now we very tight
He died for His bride homey, How you like the married life?
Christ the name we calling on
Cant wait til He calls us home
You know we be falling often we cant walk it all alone
My crews always rhyming like some stalkers we aint stalkin homes'
