«Empire State Of Mind» |
(feat. Alicia Keys) |
Yeah |
Yeah I’m out that Brooklyn, now I’m down in Tribeca |
Right next to DeNiro, but I’ll be hood forever |
I’m the new Sinatra, and since I made it here |
I can make it anywhere, yeah, they love me everywhere |
I used to cop in Harlem, all of my Dominicanos |
Right there up on Broadway, pull me back to that McDonald’s |
Took it to my stash spot, 560 State St. |
Catch me in the kitchen like the Simmons' whipping Pastry |
Cruisin' down 8th St., off-white Lexus |
Drivin' so slow, but BK is from Texas |
Me, I’m out that Bed-Stuy, home of that boy Biggie |
Now I live on Billboard and I brought my boys with me |
Say what up to TyTy, still sippin' Mai Tai’s |
Sittin' courtside, Knicks & Nets give me high five |
Nigga, I be spiked out, I could trip a referee |
Tell by my attitude that I’m most definitely from… |
New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of |
There’s nothin' you can’t do |
Now you’re in New York |
These streets will make you feel brand new |
The lights will inspire you |
Let’s hear it for New York, New York, |
New York |
(You welcome OG—I made you hot, nigga!) |
Catch me at the X with OG at a Yankee game |
Shit, I made the Yankee hat more famous then a Yankee can |
You should know I bleed blue, but I ain’t a Crip though |
But I got a gang of niggas walkin' with my clique though |
Welcome to the melting pot, corners where we sellin' rock |
Afrika Bambataa shit, home of the hip-hop |
Yellow cab, gypsy cab, dollar cab, holla back |
For foreigners it ain’t fair, they act like they forgot how to add |
8 million stories, out there in the naked |
City it’s a pity, half of y’all won’t make it |
Me, I got a plug Special Ed «I Got It Made» |
If Jeezy’s payin' LeBron, I’m payin' Dwyane Wade |
Three dice Cee-lo, three Card Molly |
Labor Day Parade, rest in peace Bob Marley |
Statue of Liberty, long live the World Trade |
Long live the King yo, I’m from the Empire State that’s |
(That boy good… welcome to the bright light, baby.) |
Lights is blinding, girls need blinders |
Or they could step out of bounds quick, the sidelines is |
Lined with casualties, who sip to life casually |
Then gradually become worse, don’t bite the apple, Eve |
Caught up in the in-crowd, now you’re in style |
Anna Wintour gets cold, in Vogue with your skin out |
City of sin, it’s a pity on a whim |
Good girls gone bad, the city’s filled with them |
Mommy took a bus trip, now she got her bust out |
Everybody ride her, just like a bus route |
Hail Mary to the city, you’re a virgin |
And Jesus can’t save you, life starts when the church end |
Came here for school, graduated to the high life |
Ball players, rap stars, addicted to the limelight |
MDMA got you feelin' like a champion |
The city never sleeps, better slip you an Ambien |
One hand in the air for the big city |
Street lights, big dreams, all lookin' pretty |
No place in the world that could compare |
Put your lighters in the air |
Everybody say «yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah» (c'mon, c’mon) |
I’m from… |
