The City |
You gotta get up, you gotta get out |
Get from under, it’s time to get over |
Get right, or get left, get even with the odds |
Get yours, Solomon… |
Eight million stories in the naked city, New York City |
You make it, they’ll take it quickly |
Ask Po & Richie, coke sold blow you over fifty |
I know who with me, I know you won’t trick me |
I’m O.G., stuck to the code G |
You can never break him or take him alive |
You can never face him or trace the design |
Believe me breathing, guaranteed I’ll make the way to survive |
And built with such grace and strive |
That from all those who sore mention him with the greats of his time |
Before I sign off, salute |
To every soldier, major player or crime boss |
We not taking time off |
It’s harder to hustle, I must get mine off |
Mandatory, the story concludes |
And according to Wu, you know Cash Rules Everything |
I want it now, and ain’t got time to waste |
And even though they say crime don’t pay |
It’s got to be a better way, they thinking more like 10 years |
I’m thinking more like 10 days |
Yeah, I shook up the city, trap star of the city |
Had the best work in the city, had the flyest broad in the city |
Ran with some of the flyest niggas in the city |
Til they left me for dead in the city, with no water |
Left me to dehydrate in the city |
Money supply, went short in the city |
The wise tell me, money can’t buy love |
But what’s funny is love can’t survive without money |
Nowadays in my poverty city, but I love my city |
And I’ll be damned if I lay down and die in the city |
Never, cuz in order to rise, you gotta fall in the city |
But the mission is you get up when you fall in the city |
Yeah, Ayatollah, Heroin |
K.M.G., Young Wu-Tang |
Hustle hard, nigga |
