Lyrics:
the cybernetic battlefield, the warrior's mind
Future warrior, in the electric night
A guardian of shadows, a beacon of light
In the neon city, where the battles
the light and living, people, this is my new religion
I am drifting, do you mind? (Drifting, drifting)
Touching the divine (Drifting, drifting)
When I close
the bed together myself
I loaded up all my equipment, and the first beat I made was, uh, "Heart of the City"
And Beans was still working on his album
and you fry in my iron furnace
I am on my get rich or die tryin' like when Em was signin' Curtis
'Cause I am murderous
Joe Budden, Jersey City, New
Gold Chains, diamonds on your rings
Caught up in the haze
Where did we lose our way
Street lights, busy city nights
I don't give a damn
Feels so
Simple emotion for the human animal we
Confronted something overwhelming the
Imminent threat
Of death in the form of wars, plagues
And natural
Disasters
They think that they know, something 'bout my life
Not in the same class, not on the same flight
Maybe the same club, just not the same lights
them city light's
Sho nuff I'm surrounded by the glow master of the flow
Dealin' faces of death from the Tarrot
Mind on my money I got 20/20 focus
Let's shift gears for a minute
And talk about New York
City i actually get in
Arguments because people say
Nicki doesn't rep New York i say "What do
with a pride
City boy, fuck it up fuck it up fuck it up
Always on the roam, this city's my home
If I die, you can write the album title on my stone
Never
When the lights shut off
And it's my turn to settle down
My main concern
Promise that you will sing about me
Promise that you will sing about me
speaking the truth Cause he don't believes in lies
LA Legend with John legend Singing by ya side
In maybach on ya album cover Look at the sky
A G member
She been on my mind all day
I need to show you my ways
These city lights don't go away
Oh, oh, oh
City lights don't go away
If we gonna dinner date
the light
And no one gave a shit
Not even the kids
He was already dead you see
Your body moved slow
And you're brain did too
Mind wrecked by drugs
Go Find
fallout
And the near extinction of our very species
Within the walls of our Metropolis
We're protected by our city guards
Who patrol the very wall that
At the red light
Quickly pass on get my ass on
And keep my head right
The things, that's on my mind
When I be sliding by, in my city (in my city)
It's
"They waved among the trees at breakneck speed"
Keep it simple
Utilize to abuse minds
Slice head halves, let's probe the subconcious lobe
pitch-ins
If you stayed by my side
Divide the dividends
Wish life was that simple
I can't fuck with these chickens
You know I been really with it
Pop
East Side from 1950 to 1975
We start with Harry Smith in 1950
A beatnik weirdo living in New York City
His huge collections were insane
Of Easter eggs
diamonds in the light
And we're standing side by side
As your shadow crosses mine
What it takes to come alive
It's the way I'm feeling I just can't
the city looking
Back, you can actually
Pinpoint this transition, the very moment
Meek realized he could do this
Forever: he marked it
By cutting his hair
LIFE in the City gets to you, waste your time outside and maybe you are
Light as a feather, you are, in and out in all kinds of weather you
Make
What do I say
Say whatever the heck you want
Be on beat stay on beat
Oh my GOD
Yo here I go
Hey yo I don't know any words
My GOD
Play the Album
City up, red light blue light, city up
I mind my business I don't walk around out of touch
I mind my business I don't really make no fuss
I mind my
