New York City |
| New York City |
| Welcome to Medina, the Mecca, the melting pot |
| Where you could be playin' ball or sellin' rocks |
| Tell the cops, they don’t care |
| If you starvin', they won’t share |
| All they’ll say is, «Get your own, mothafucka'» |
| See the love isn’t unconditional |
| A demonstration of unification is uncivilized |
| If you’re ahead of the game, it’s you they epitomize |
| But all these bright lights, how could you not visualize? |
| The Apple is rotten, but I love it |
| We’re in New York |
| 42nd and Broadway, you’ll see a play |
| 142nd and Broadway, see the yay |
| Unwritten rules you follow, it’s no need to say |
| They take your chips, I ain’t talkin' no Frito Lay |
| We’re in New York |
| No Allstate or Geico |
| But you got that money for lipo' |
| In the trunk, most of us got the rifle |
| Get your purse snatched from a psycho, where? |
| We’re in New York |
| When I watched the towers fall |
| But nobody takin' ours, y’all |
| 20 gunshots, call that a shower, y’all |
| Money, respect, don’t forget the power, y’all |
| We’re in New York |
| Certain beef you can’t call off |
| So get holes in your body, like a golf course |
| Yeah, shotty to the brain |
| See you thought it was a game, but… |
| We’re in New York City |
| We’re in New York City |
| We’re in New York City |
| When I watched the towers fall |
| We’re in New York City |
| Nobody takin' ours, y’all |
| We’re in New York |
| When I watched the towers fall |
| But nobody takin' ours, y’all |
| 20 gunshots, call that a shower, y’all |
| Money, respect, don’t forget the power, y’all |
| We’re in New York |
| Certain beef you can’t call off |
| So get holes in your body, like a golf course |
| Yeah, shotty to the brain |
| See you thought it was a game, but… |
