| The new Brooklyn, a nice place to live
|
| But it wasn’t always that way…
|
| The neighborhood done changed
|
| But I recall the old Brooklyn
|
| Back then it wasn’t known as the 718
|
| It was more like the 187
|
| But shit never changes
|
| An at the end the only thing they remember you by
|
| Is your ReP…
|
| Yeah mothaf***as, its the world famous Pain In Da Ass
|

|
| Representing that Brooklyn borough
|
| And he about to go old Brooklyn on you mothaf**kas
|

|

|
| I gotta move so struggles can’t get too me/
|
| Brooklyn state of mind just let a n*gga step too me/
|

|
| Tell it how it is I’m from Brooklyn/
|

|
| Read between da lines Brooklyn gets respect/
|

|
