Lyrics:
and start a riot, ri-riot
Be a rebel
Bottles poppin' 'til we can't stand
We keep it rockin' 'til 6 AM
New York to London over to Japan
Turn it up,
This is for the 90s, rewind it to the Mecca
when New York is untouchable, like The L.O.X. trifecta
My vision is independent the black Tribecca
This culture came from
And what it's really all about
I got you, my nigga, yo, ayo
Count to ten and then come in shootin'
Fuck peace, Silverback the new
or high class?
You'd probably live in a trailer park and be white trash
In any case that be the ill shit right? (Yup)
But there's a good and bad side
street, they adore me
Show me love, I turn the corner, adorn me with forties
See who it be?
Feel like I'm down in Philly and I'm Beanie Sieg
But can't
New York City, we piss in it, we live in it
We die, we all take shits in it
[Kool Keith]
There's a million albums out there with that opera
Deadliest school shooting since Sandy Hook
On Valentine's Day yesterday in Florida, it tore legs
It's 5:30 AM, the news has been on since I've been
a rap tour, was gettin'
Packs off, no cap, lord
Got million dollar thoughts under
My New York fitted
Tryna get it in a New York minute, son
I'm deadass
see a light in the sky
Oh, it's almost blinding me
I can't believe I've been touched by an angel with love
Let the rain come down and wash away my
wanna liv' tonight away
I just wanna liv' tonight
I just wanna live my life eh
New York, L.A., Chicago, V.A., Saint Louis
I just wanna live my life eh
to live that way
You tell them what I shine
Yeah I swear I'll be that son
Brooklyn going under any Brooklyn you know
I know what it is, let's go
My
relatives then came a
Bloody end to it, a lesson
In life as a Somali: death
Approaching from the distance
Walking into our lives in
An experienced stroll
mek it wash down bag-a-walla
Dem a talk bout more fire, we a talk bout more prayer
We this yah tune dat ago mek some DJ talk some more But Wha!
pain
Dreamers with empty hands
They sigh for exotic lands
It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again
Autumn in New York
The gleaming rooftops
I'm breaking it down (Stupid) a scam
I heard that boy running
Around with the packs
So I'm taking him down (yeah)
Oh my gosh, they live by the cold
see what's going on in the projects
Then I'ma shoot down to Atlanta
See how it's going down in the Dirty Dirty
Then I'ma shoot over to New Orleans,
How we gets down now, now
New York City now, now
Okay, alright, okay, alright, alright
Word up, Napolean, Ralph Lauren
Mr. Cheeks, back in that ass
How
the evergreens
But I know what I'm needin'
And I don't wanna waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind
It was so easy livin' day by day
Out of touch
rightwordword
Now you could shout your clique
And shout your town
But it's time we shout New York
Hold it down!
You wanna see latinos, yo that's Boogie down
batter, out to New York, maybe Seattle
Up to Miami, move it to Michigan, down in So Cal? I got the fiends fidgeting
Even Chi City!? Where they be, drilling
walking down Church Avenue
With my hat leaned to one side
You can see it when I walk
I'm a Jamaican in New York
I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm
make it through the day
To put some food on our plates
It's not a beautiful state
I swear to god
I might lose it today...
Change up
Up in New York
as Im countin my doe|Grand puba macks well, doogie, comin with the new york|We keep it real like jail when we might talk|Honies know cause when Im in
God done made a believer out ya ass, now didn't he?
Nigga, mind your business, shut down your business
Shut down New York in a New York minute, listen
