My Town |
I took a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge |
The new graffiti says that lifeў‚¬"ўs a bitch |
And now I hear this bridge is falling down |
Someone will steal it before it hits the ground |
Now I wanna go out walking in my old neighborhood |
Where I was just a little girl and life was good |
But the boys are on the corner, gonna fuck with me |
Iў‚¬"ўm gonna keep on walking, they donў‚¬"ўt see |
This is my town |
I was born and raised on these streets |
This is my town |
Oh yeah, my town |
Too many people are on the street tonight |
Itў‚¬"ўs way too hot someoneў‚¬"ўs looking for a fight |
What a mess of faces in an endless sea |
Iў‚¬"ўm getting tired of all this energy |
I guess I could just pick it up and move outside of town |
And listen to the crickets when the sun goes down |
But then we couldnў‚¬"ўt hear them playing down at S.O.B.ў‚¬"ўs |
Where my friend Lincoln can get us in for free |
This is my town |
I grew up too fast on these streets |
Hey this is my town |
Oh yeah, my town |
Tonight the rain is falling, falling down |
The lights outside keep changing, without a sound |
Now lets just take a train down into Chinatown |
Past the house of candles, you know they burned it down |
Tomorrow is the Puerto Rican Day Parade |
Theyў‚¬"ўll be dancing in the streets |
Come to carry me away |
Cause this is my town |
I was born and raised on these streets |
This is my town |
Iў‚¬"ўm walking down these mean streets |
Itў‚¬"ўs a big bad town |
Hey yeah, this is my town |
