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
