  New Yorkshow lyrics

  New York

  I'm running, running through the jungle
  Running like a slave through the underground tunnel
  Told you all niggas better get these bitches
  Cause I spit till my lips need 16 stitches
  I am, lyrical intrusion,
  You bitches can't see me like I'm really an illusion
  I hop upon your face and do my motherfucking tooth that
  Till I know the meat out like a motherfucking toothpick
  Ah, I'm nasty nigga, like Nas like kim, like Cassie bitches
  Like I'm fucking Chris dope or that raspy nigga
  Or the skin on the feet of a ashy nigga
  I am, whatever they say I am
  Bumping like the asses on them thick bitches at stadiums
  Fuck them other bitches I sound better in the place of them
  I kill this shit this the motherfucking raping
  Sick bitch, chicken noodle soup face
  Calls from oversea like a motherfucking crusade
  Crack rock and you hit it till your nose hurts
  Rooftop Brooklyn, made the shit and cover
  I run New York, I run New York
  I am 0 past a hundred, spitting like a dragon
  That wnt missing from a dungeon
  Y'all a bunch of niggas getting trippy off of nothing
  Tie a rope around your neck and let me kick you off a bungee
  I'm satan, and I'ma take your ass to church now
  Running my fields and you midgets on your first down
  I love it, when these bitches know I'm better than them
  Cause I don't hear, not a word or a letter from them
  I'm a fire, enemies of the force round
  Bitches and I rap, elliptical, all it's round
  Bitches and a condo, I sit with an open mouth
  Bitches and you bitches are lyrically
  Like some fucking down syndrome, no offence
  No shame in all, but y'all bitches on knees like baby claws
  You can catch me out in Cover, chilling like a stoop kid
  Yeah hate don't talk bitch do
  Sick bitch, chicken noodle soup face
  Calls from oversea like a motherfucking crusade
  Crack rock and you hit it till your nose hurts
  Rooftop Brooklyn, made the shit and cover
  I run New York, I run New York
  I'm lyrical coming on general
  Take shots when I was a criminal
  Don't stop, continue on running around
  But never... some of the shit that I'm fin to do
  Y'all... that I'm giving you
  If you front, I'm gonn put and end to you
  I'm like scorpion, bitch I will finish you
  Making nasty, real, real nasty
  Way you bitches running like you will get past me
  Won't happen you bitches could get on, when I'm off it
  Try to cross me now, you be gone in a coffin
  It's just me, myself and I
  Talk tough shit and I'ma beat you till you die
  Ask why, because I'm better than you'll ever be
  That's why shit negotiate seems lighter than heavy d
  Sick bitch, chicken noodle soup face
  Calls from oversea like a motherfucking crusade
  Crack rock and you hit it till your nose hurts
  Rooftop Brooklyn, made the shit and cover

  New York

  I hear the train all night
  Sound of its wind blowing through our subtle lives
  And I have a job to do walking these cars
  Walking all asleep to get to you
  But I don't feel your stir beside me
  And your not in my morning hour
  Some ties are made to break
  Some stalks grow high and green to run away
  And feel the wake
  And these lines tell the truth
  These city veins answer all you do
  So could you keep me in the pulses
  Could you keep me in the sound
  I got wise and I got old
  Not once, not once did I fall
  So don't you know
  Maybe you bet on me
  While we were still young enough to know
  Or to believe
  For every year you took
  For every soft breathe or loving look
  Believe me
  And don't keep me like you have me
  And don't kiss me like you don't
  I got wise and I got old
  Not once, not once did I fall
  So don't you now
  Some land holds a home
  Some of my years only hold me to Rome
  But I tell myself its true
  You see a home you see a man
  You see it too
  And I say don't you know you have her
  Go on kiss her now you boy
  I got wise and I got old
  Not once, not once did I fall
  So don't you now
  I got wise and I got old
  Not once, not once did I fall

  New York

  Please can we go away
  Get out of here somehow today
  For a place that I've heard on the radio
  Never sleeps
  I'll get a job in a bar
  And you could be a waitress and serve cheap cigars
  To fat mustachio men in suits
  You'll look cute
  Fuck what they say
  And fuck it if they talk
  It really don't matter
  We're going to New York
  Oh, hold on to me
  I'm gonna get you out, I'm gonna set you free
  To a place that I've heard on the radio
  Never sleeps
  I'll get a job in a bar
  You could be a waitress and serve cheap cigars
  To fat mustachio men in suits
  You'll look cute
  Fuck what they say
  Fuck it if they talk
  It really don't matter

  New York

  One two three four one
  I didn't get no sleep last night
  Had a drink and I got uptight
  I fell over
  When the sun comes in inside
  When the tide comes in I'm alive
  I'm all over, so move over
  Here I come New York
  New York, you're gaining on me
  New York, you're just that one step far away
  But I'm here to stay
  New York, (you're gaining on me) stop gaining on me
  New York, you're just that one step far away
  But I'm here to stay

  New York

  The sun is falling on New York City
  There's so many things that I could say to you
  That I'll never say
  There's so many places we could go
  There's so many faces, I could tell
  Just by the way you walk, that tonight you're from New
  York
  Walking down the avenues
  Where mysteries are often solved
  On the island with the tallest apple tree
  Where animals ride bicycles
  And men become cannon balls
  Lovers ride the famous wonder wheel
  There's so many things that I could say to you
  That I'll never say
  There's so many places we could go
  There's so many faces, I could tell
  Just by the way you walk, that tonight you're from New
  York
  And tonight I'm from New York
  Honey you're not the only one to sail across the world
  To be here
  Put your dreams in your pocket, girl It takes more than
  charm
  It takes fever
  So sweat it out and take this chance tonight
  Tomorrow may not be here
  It's the city that takes a fight and stares you down
  Are you ready to be here
  Are you ready to be here
  Tonight
  There's so many things that I could say to you
  That I'll never say
  There's so many places we could go
  There's so many faces, I could tell
  Just by the way you walk, that tonight you're from New
  York
  Oh, and tonight I'm from New York

  New York

  In New York, we buried our heads in the sand,
  like a junkie needs his fix, like a hooker needs her tricks,
  In New York, we danced like two birds on a stick,
  like confusion breeds despair, like all politicians care.
  I must have been a fool to listen to you,
  my friend,
  I still love you, still pretend, cool,
  my friend,
  I still love you, still pretend.
  In New York, we swam like a dog in the sun,
  like a critic needs a shield, like a chicken needs a field,
  In New York, we sat like a bus stop in hell,
  like a spotlight has to fade,like a wanker wearing shades.
  I must have been a fool to listen to you,
  my friend,
  I still love you, still pretend, cool,
  my friend,
  I still love you, still pretend.
  In New York, we gave every penny to lust,
  like a bulldog needs a smile, like a novel takes a while,
  like a prophet needs to think, like a case of kitchen sink (?)
  like confession breeds/ needs remorse, like suspicion runs its course,
  like a model needs a look, like a mother needs to cook,
  like a sweetheart needs a date, like appearing slightly late,
  like a beating begs revenge, like a hippy needs stone henge,
  like a gangster needs a gang, like a killer needs to hang.
  I must have been a fool to listen to you,
  my friend,
  I still love you, still pretend, cool,
  my friend,
  I still love you, still pretend.
  Like a telephone needs calls, like a lesbian needs balls,
  like I'm always second best, like I've got it off my chest,
  like a mystic needs to fate, like a glutton needs to sate,
  like a lawyer needs a law, like a millionaire needs more,
  like escapists need to go, like a winner has to gloat,
  like all time will surely heal, like a santa claus is real,
  like a tenant needs the rent, like all fury needs a vent,
  like a ?????, like affairs all need a ???
  like a popgroup needs a sound, like a penny makes a pound,
  like I'm shooting from the hip, like all suitcase needs equip (?)
  like a jockey needs a whip, like a belly needs to slip,
  like a cheetah ? the sea, like a vicar needs more tea,
  like a massochist needs Spain, and like a cavalan needs pain

  New-York, New York
  Ça c'est du nouveau
  Je viens d'y penser
  Je veux partir à ta conquête New-York New-York
  J'ai comme un grand show au bout des souliers
  J'ai mis de l'or à mes paillettes New-York New-York
  Je me vois reine de ce temple de la musique
  J'ai tous les rois de la ville dans le public
  Cent mille bravos
  Et tous ces bravos croulent de tous côtés

  Et si j'ai su te plaire c'est à la terre entière
  Que je plairais New-York New-York .

  New York

  If you were here beside me,
  Instead of in New York
  If the curve of you was curved on me
  I'd tell you that I loved you
  Before I even knew you
  'Cause I loved the simple thought of you
  If our hearts had never broken
  Well there's no joy in the mending
  So much this hurt can teach us both
  There's distance and there's silence
  Your words have never left me
  They're the prayer that I say every day
  Come on come out come here come here
  Come on come out come here come here
  Come on come out come here come here
  Come on come out come here come here
  The lone neon lights
  And the heat of the ocean
  And the fire that had started to spark
  I miss it all from the love to the lightning
  And the lack of it snaps me in two
  If you were here beside me
  Instead of New York
  In the arms you said you'd never leave
  I'd tell you that it's simple
  And it was only ever thus
  There is nowhere else that I belong
  Come on come out come here come here
  Come on come out come here come here
  Come on come out come here come here
  Come on come out come here come here
  The lone neon lights
  And the want of the ocean
  And the fire that had started to spark
  I miss it all from the love to the lightning
  And the lack of it snaps me in two
  Just give me a sign
  There is end in a beginning
  Til the quiet chaos driving me mad
  The lone neon lights
  And the want of the ocean
  And the fire that had started to go out

  New York

  Was it Washington Square
  Or the way you wore you hair?
  Was it central park
  Or kissing after dark?
  Guess I'll never know
  Not sure I even care
  But my heart will always live
  With you and me there
  But I can't afford to live in N.Y.C.
  Ahahahah
  And she can't afford to leave
  hahah
  Was it the Sea Port in June
  Or your face by the moon?
  Was it Soho's charm
  Or you and I arm in arm?
  Was it the 6 train uptown
  Or true love that I found?
  It all blends into one
  When I think of you now
  But I can't afford to live in N.Y.C.
  Ahahahah
  And she can't afford to leave
  Ahahah
  Well I know that a promise is to keep
  But money's tight and I've been losing sleep
  Old Man Circumstance will have his way
  It's true
  But what I wouldn't give to stay here with you
  And I can't afford to live in N.Y.C.
  Ahahahah
  And she can't afford to leave
  Ahahah
  And I've never been good with good-byes

  [Intro: Lon Dini (Fes Taylor)]
  Dini, baby, Two 4 War (The Milli is back)
  We about to blow, you faggot niggaz ain't ready, man
  Know I mean? (Return of The Milli)
  Dini forever, man, L.I., Baby Pa, L.G.P.
  (You niggaz ain't ready) Get Fresh Crew
  Let's do it (You don't got a choice but to get ready)
  [Lon Dini:]
  Yo, I flow through, anti-social
  You clown niggaz loco, I fuck bad bitches on every postal
  Move and you see it come through with new recruits
  Cause I keep baggies and boots, and niggaz'll shoot
  Like I said before I write it on spot, I'm going straight to the top
  Like the yae when it touches the pot
  Only the kid Dini can do this, smooth but I'm ruthless
  Violators get chased down and beat toothless
  Two of the kicks sounding like the tank let off
  We and Taylor hopped in the '07 shit and jet off
  Grandpa asleep, I'm in the room chopping grams
  How dare you faggot fucks ever try to bite the hand
  Of the man that feeds you, the man that leads you
  Guerilla warfare, motherfucker, we breed crews
  Bang on you faggot ass clowns
  All you cowards scatter like fucking roaches when you hear that sound
  Yea, huh...
  [Hook x2: Fes Taylor]
  New York, New York
  [Pa Bazil:]
  Yo, yo, check it
  They say a measure of a man is measured by his accomplishments
  When you wack, fool, you get no acknowledgement
  Just gotta swallow it, back to the drawing board
  When it gets too tough and we might write some songs for y'all
  Hit it like Arthur with murderous ways
  With the help of my niggaz we'll take over this place
  Just like a moment of fate, it was written in the cards
  Like the Sun was a line between the moon and the stars
  And by the way, my name is the Pa
  I done fathered many styles on the Shao' so get ready for more
  You never know what he's holding in store
  You gotta guess it's ugly
  Been through the line of fire so I bet the rest is nothing
  I figure less discussion, more action and destruction
  At anyone who has the audac' to try and send me something
  [Fes Taylor:]
  Myspace.com, we got spins like Flex dropped the bomb
  Modern day King Kong, alright, building in my palm
  Twin Tower of P, that's my my charm
  This ain't back in the days, my beeper's gone
  Yea, we on that Nextel chirp, I got work
  I promote like I got milk right in the dirt
  Uh-huh, feel the worms and the snakes pass by
  My cash buy, anything I want so I ain't gotta ask why
  Fast fry like french fries, cause my cash pries
  Ultimate hustler but I don't got Damon Dash ties
  Now I arise from the dead, my niggaz lost lives and they bled
  Blow it through Mexico, hide it from the feds
  Yea, yea, Federallis, firearms, you never carry
  See me crack a smile, not necessarily happy
  I growl at the beat, I'm just starting to bark
  Then I bite, step on ya toes, paw on ya Clark's
  Ferrari is parked, you shook when the lobby is dark
  The beat gasoline, probably'll spark
  Fire, nigga, fire alarms, stop, look, admire the Don
  Cars on cinder blocks, tires is gone
  Fly as the Fonz, never went bronze
  But I'm trying to stunt gold sold this pair of LeBrons
  How we do things, even my shoes bling
  Willie Rocks, tell 'em these ain't rhymes, those in a shoe string
  This my new thing, Taylor and Pa Bazil
  Dini, Lis, Gil put his cards on the table
  We dealing with a royal flush

  (GUITAR & DRUMS INTRO)
  Welcome to the city, welcome to disaster
  You see a pretty girl, but you're walkin' right past her
  You give it up, get it back, Turn around and ask her
  She don't talk back so you talk a little faster
  Winkin' in a snapshot, wavin' like a bigshot
  You're feelin' pretty good 'til you think you hear a gunshot
  Another punk outta junk, Breakin' in a pawn shop
  Cops yell freeze so you take another snapshot
  Ah ... it's New York
  Ah ... it's New York
  I guess everything my daddy told me was right
  When you're in the Big Apple
  Then you better learn to take a bite
  (HARP SOLO)
  I guess everything my daddy told me was right
  When you're in the Big Apple
  Then you better learn to take a bite
  Workin' in a hotel, workin for the housedick
  You stop a little girl who's pullin' in her own tricks
  Talk awhile, get a smile, Make another sidekick
  It won't last long but it beats feelin' homesick
  Jumpin' in a taxi, gotta see the band play
  It's on a little sidestreet, a little off of Broadway
  You make a turn, then you learn, You're goin' down the wrong way
  The cabby wants a tip 'cause he got you there the hard way
  Ah ... it's New York
  Ah ... it's New York
  Ah ... it's New York
  Ah ... it's New York

  It's New York

  Greetings from Miami Dade County Florida

  Lemme see your hands, wave em side to side
  Put em up high, lets ride because

  Yo the hammer and the muzzle came together,
  All I had did was hold on to the pieces untill the puzzle came together,
  Before it all got hyped,
  I was in the corridor,
  Apple before it got riped.
  So I aint gotta act like,
  I'm on top of, or in front of them,
  If I aint the best dog then I'm one of them,
  Listenn I'm a different kind of boss,
  I'm Cut from a different kind of cloth,
  These niggas is different kind of soft.
  Everybody know it all,
  Nobody follow a protocal,
  The money's only good until you blow it all.
  Stacking every cents,
  Guliani knocked John Gotti, What?
  So now he's running for president.
  It's a shame what the game's became,
  But the truth is,
  There's really nobody to blame,
  But the music.
  Lets give it a minute,
  Wtih no wack gimmicks,
  Just hard beats and rhymes,
  blow breath back in it.

  Two's for the show,
  Three's for the base and that limelight glow,
  I know, you thinking that this game is over,
  Oh no, the wait is over,
  New York is back.
  Lemme see your hands, wave em side to side
  Put em up high, lets ride because
  New York is back
  Lemme see your hands, wave em side to side
  Put em up high, lets ride because
  New York is back
  Mutha Fucka i'm the heart and sole of this,
  You claim king, but we in control of this,
  Name another rapper you see on the streets,
  huggin the block at the height of a beef,
  Yellow tape and white sheets,
  Yea that's my back drop whenever I speak,
  I know alotta y'all would love to ice me,
  make my head jerk like I'm doing the hyphy.
  But that'll never happen, get on some sick shit,
  Like fifteen in you, and one in your infant,
  Joe's the business, Ask about me,
  In the middle of the desert,
  and they still can drought me.
  You know Coka baby he stay on that new york shit,
  You see weezy coming down on that forklift,
  And money aint a thing, unless he come off with
  Then Ima have to hit em with these little bricks often.
  One's for the trouble,

  Three's for the base and that limelight glow,
  I know, you thinking that this game is over,
  Oh no, the wait is over,

  Put em up high, lets ride because
  New York is back
  Lemme see your hands, wave em side to side
  Put em up high, lets ride because

  New york, New York nigga never went no where,
  I just took off a couple of years,
  But Now I'm back on my day to day,
  Old school, Gucci frames like day to day,
  Who gone tell New york times up, Flava flav,
  Cuz as much as things change it remains the same
  And you can gimme the city of God
  And Mecca, the temple, the mas
  An inspiration, the inception, The art..
  Of Hip Hip was born
  And the rap game was formed
  From niggas dead broke, sell drugs, bear arms
  Against all odds,
  and argue all day about who's a bigger star,
  Joe, Jada, or Ja.
  SO close but so far,
  So many there's no star,
  I can't belive Fifty Cent and NY fell off,
  And L.A. came back, and the south is running shit,
  Then one blood group, shit's all developing, NEW YORK
  One's for the trouble,
  Two's for the show,
  Three's for the base and that limelight glow,
  I know, you thinking that this game is over,
  Oh no, the wait is over,
  New York is back.
  Lemme see your hands, wave em side to side
  Put em up high, lets ride because
  New York is back
  Lemme see your hands, wave em side to side

  An imitation from New York
  You're made in Japan from cheese and chalk
  You're hippy tarts hero 'cos you put on a bad show
  You put on a bad show, oh, don't it show
  Still out on those pills
  Oh, do you remember?
  Think it's swell playing Max's Kansas
  You're looking bored and you're acting flash
  With nothing in your gut you better keep your mouth shut
  You better keep your mouth shut, in a rut
  Still out on those pills
  Do the sambo
  You're four years on, you still look the same
  I think it's about time you changed you brain
  You're just a pile of shit, you're coming to this
  You poor little fagot
  You're sealed with a kiss
  Kiss me
  Think it's swell playing in Japan
  When everybody knows Japan is a dishpan
  You're just a pile of shit, you're coming to this
  You poor little fagot
  You're sealed with a kiss
  Still out on those pills
  Cheap thrills, Anadins, Aspros anything
  You're condemned to eternal bullshit
  You're sealed with a kiss
  Kiss me
  A kiss, a kiss, you're sealed with a kiss
  A looking for a kiss, you're coming to this
  I wanna kiss
  You do just about anything
  Oh, kiss this

  Hey, hey, I know it wasn't New York
  Where I lost my mind.
  Hey, hey, I know I must have left it
  It was back home all the time.
  And where were you while we lay
  So drunk that we died?
  Hey, Hey, I know, but who could blame us?
  Under pressure
  And I know
  I know I should have stayed in bed.
  Hey, hey, I know it's just a toothache
  I won't even cry.
  Hey, hey, the candy store prescriptions
  All lined up in the aisles.
  And where were you while we lay
  Shipwrecked in denial?
  Hey, hey, it's just a pill to help you
  Sleep right through the night.
  I should have stayed in bed.
  And I know
  I should have stayed in bed.
  I know I should have stayed in bed because
  Tomorrow's gonna be another party.
  You stay too long until the lights get lonely.
  Oh, tomorrow's gonna be another party
  Wait too long til we
  All stay out of the sun.

  Start spreading the news, I’m leaving today
  I want to be a part of it - new york, new york
  These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray
  Right through the very heart of it - new york, new york
  I wanna wake up in a city, that doesn’t sleep
  And find I’m king of the hill - top of the heap
  These little town blues, are melting away
  I’ll make a brand new start of it - in old new york
  If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere
  It’s up to you - new york, new york
  New york, new york
  I want to wake up in a city, that never sleeps
  And find I’m a number one top of the list, king of the hill
  A number one
  These little town blues, are melting away
  I’m gonna make a brand new start of it - in old new york
  And if I can make it there, I’m gonna make it anywhere
  It up to you - new york new york

  New York

  She was a back street dancer out-a New Orleans
  Been featured once or twice in the small magazin
  Doing alright - yes
  she's doing alright.
  She's on broadway
  she's come a long way
  Baby
  And now she's a star. Ring on every finger and big fancy car
  Doing alright - yes
  she's doing alright
  Got her name up in lights
  she's a queen of the night.
  You're in New York
  you're a star.
  A sensation
  you are - in the money
  And they're applauding you.
  You're in New York
  you're a star. . . .
  You're a diamond studded lady and a race on the stage
  You're known across the nation
  I guess you got it made.
  Doing alright
  you're doing alright
  you're on Broadway.
  You get offers from the movies to appear on the screen
  But you're sleeping on it
  Baby
  'cause it's not quite your scene
  Doing alright
  you're doing alright
  Got your name up in lights
  she's the queen of the night.
  You're in New York
  you're a star. . . .
  You're in New York

  You could go to all the states in the world
  See girls with long hair, flat stomachs
  Goin' back and forth to the gym, workin' out
  And they be talkin' to you
  You get in New York... girls be frontin'
  They have a little bit of tiny hair on they head
  Or some just walk around with braids
  You can't tell 'em nuttin'
  Yo... they be killin' me
  [H-Bomb]
  Easy mon, blood clot, blood cleat with gold teeth
  He peekin' at Kool Keith, Marc Live, and me
  We - fly LAX to JFK, take it one way
  You twisted, Jacky J ain't plan to stay
  I'm on a one way, beamin' a poor chick in L.A.
  Play - these chickens, break rules
  I pack steels, do big drug deals
  You in tennis shoes, where's your heels?
  And you expect me to pay for these meals
  Where's your spouse?
  You live with your moms, is that a mouse
  I'm breakin' out bounce, my man Ice-T got a penthouse
  Four deep hits, scores, V.I.P.
  We fingerbang chickens in lace, no space - fast race
  Big Lonnie on Webster Ave with a screw face, briefcase
  Three ki's taste with a rusty screw driver and waste
  Your right hand man got replaced
  You chase - baby makers, parts, heart breakers
  Want papers - yes, them Murray gators huh?
  You're man work in Manhattan up in Houlihan's as a waiters, laters
  You worship them slave owners on green papers, haters
  I'm back in L.A. with three hoes in a Wilshire skyscrapers
  [Chorus x2]
  New York belongs to me!
  (Not him, or yooouuuu)
  New York belongs to me!
  (Not him, or yooouuuu)
  [Marc Live]
  I walk through your city like a juggernaut
  You kids is astronauts, all in space
  Right to your face, no welcome mats just welcome caps
  A community of big city kids in black hats
  Catch me in a New York strip club slappin' a phat ass
  You don't get no pass, it's the big three - H, Marc, and Keith
  Top general chiefs, no games, forget the friends baby
  Let's go straight to the brains, an even exchange
  No heated exchange, we show the hotel the after party
  Lot of Bacardi and Limon, heavy smoke and plenty of grindin'
  I left L.A. real quick to see who's rhymin' -
  Who's talkin' mess and who's lyin'
  Who shippin' weight express mail, no Greyhound - we flyin'
  Forty-two street triple X, we buyin'
  Hot 97 nigga gon' play us some new shit, or we gon' start ridin'
  Me and Blaze up that spot, you know who we are
  High profile, we not buyin' the bar, real grimey
  One E & J, one Philly, and jake behind me... BX
  [Chorus x1.5]
  New York belongs to me!
  (Not him, or yooouuuu)
  New York belongs to me!
  (Not him, or yooouuuu)
  [Kool Keith]
  I'ma tell you New Yorkers on lock down, the city is my boo
  You shoulda called up Clue and made appointments
  I'm qualified in the Metropolitan area
  I shoulda been on the professional too
  None of y'all rappers don't have a rule
  Marketing plan out there, y'all know what to do
  What up nizza?, with tight beats on destinctive tracks like the RZA
  On four DAT's, computer sequence my formats
  I step on MC's like subways, rest my feet on rats
  8,000 rappers comin' out this summer posin' hard, rhymin' like pussycats
  Y'all don't shoot nobody, half of y'all like to scratch -
  Like kittens in a batch, most of y'all scared to light a match
  Blow birthday candles, y'all dealin' with girls with love handles
  Better yet, guys still standin' in front of Fat Beats lookin' for samples
  I laught at you holdin' champagne tryin' to walk in the club like Rambo
  [Chorus x2]
  New York belongs to me!
  (Not him, or yooouuuu)
  New York belongs to me!

  New York

  Take my hand and hold it tight, she spoke of a tragedy tonight
  Nothing but questions fill my mind,
  will this be the end or will we survive Take my hand
  I don't understand why all these tears come with laughter
  and love makes you cry
  When years get you down, let days pick you up
  Cause life's a disaster with no one to love you
  We met on a train that was New York bound,
  her voice sounded scared and her hair was down
  One day she left without saying goodbye,
  she left just a letter that didn't say why
  It said hold on (hold on) It said hold on (hold on) Remember me
  She said remember me, remember me
  Hold on to memories, remember me
  Hold on... to memories, to memories
  I don't understand why all these tears come with laughter
  and love makes you cry
  When years get you down, let days pick you up
  Cause life's a disaster with no one to love you
  I don't understand why

  You got your start, you went to New York
  Yeah, it's enormous
  You went to see just where the wild wind blows
  And it's more than you
  You are in New York
  This is heavy
  No doubt about that
  Dreams will happen
  You cross your heart and hope you never die
  in this life
  You want to feel how deep the new world breathes
  And it's more than you
  You are in New York
  This is heavy
  No doubt about that
  This is heaven
  And then one day you rock the USA
  Yeah! Wow!
  And it's more than you
  You are in New York
  Streetlights glitter
  brighter than stars
  This is heavy
  No doubt about that
  This is heaven
  You are in New York

  An imitation from New York
  Youre made in Japan
  From cheese and chalk
  Youre hipy tarts hero
  Cos you put on bad show
  You put on bad show
  Oh dont it show
  Still oh out on those pills
  Oh do you remember
  Think its well playing Maxs Kansas
  Youre looking bored
  And youre acting flash
  With nothing in your gut
  You better keep yer mouth shut
  You better keep yer mouth shut
  In a rut
  Still oh out on those pills
  Do the sambo
  Four years on
  You still look the same
  I think about time
  You changed your brain
  Youre just a pile of shit
  Youre coming to this
  Ya poor little faggot
  Youre sealed with a kiss
  Kiss me
  Think its well playing in Japan
  When everybody knows Japan is a dishpan
  Youre just a pile of shit
  Youre coming to this
  Ya poor little faggot
  Youre sealed with a kiss
  Still oh out on those pills
  Cheap thrills, anadins, aspros, anything
  Youre condemned to eternal bullshit
  Youre sealed with a kiss
  Kiss me
  A kiss a kiss youre sealed with a kiss
  A looking for a kiss youre coming to this

  New York

  If you were here beside me
  Instead of in New York
  If the curve of you is curved on me
  I'd tell you that I love you
  Before I ever knew you
  'Cause I love the simple thought of you
  If our hearts are never broken
  then there's no joy in the mending
  There's so much this heart can teach us both
  Though there's distance and there's silence
  Your words have never left me
  You're the prayer that I say every day
  Come on
  Come out
  Come here
  Come here
  The long neon nights and the ache of the ocean
  And the fire that was starting to spark
  I miss it all from the love to the lightning
  And the lack of it snaps me in two
  If you were here beside me
  Instead of in New York
  In the arms you said you'd never leave
  I'd tell you that it's simple
  And it was only ever thus
  There is no where else that I belong
  Come on
  Come out
  Come here
  Come here
  The long neon nights and the eek of the ocean
  And the fire that was starting to spark
  I miss it all from the love to the lightning
  And the lack of it snaps me in two
  Just give me a sign
  There's an end and a beginning
  To the quiet chaos driving me mad
  The long neon night and the want of the ocean

  (GUITAR & DRUMS INTRO)
  Welcome to the city, welcome to disaster
  You see a pretty girl, but you're walkin' right past her
  You give it up, get it back, Turn around and ask her
  She don't talk back so you talk a little faster
  Winkin' in a snapshot, wavin' like a bigshot
  You're feelin' pretty good 'til you think you hear a gunshot
  Another punk outta junk, Breakin' in a pawn shop
  Cops yell freeze so you take another snapshot
  Ah ... it's New York
  Ah ... it's New York
  I guess everything my daddy told me was right
  When you're in the Big Apple
  Then you better learn to take a bite
  (HARP SOLO)
  I guess everything my daddy told me was right
  When you're in the Big Apple
  Then you better learn to take a bite
  Workin' in a hotel, workin for the housedick
  You stop a little girl who's pullin' in her own tricks
  Talk awhile, get a smile, Make another sidekick
  It won't last long but it beats feelin' homesick
  Jumpin' in a taxi, gotta see the band play
  It's on a little sidestreet, a little off of Broadway
  You make a turn, then you learn, You're goin' down the wrong way
  The cabby wants a tip 'cause he got you there the hard way
  Ah ... it's New York
  Ah ... it's New York
  Ah ... it's New York
  Ah ... it's New York

  New York, you're such a fickle city
  You've got a heart
  But you won't admit it
  You've got a soul
  And I'd like to get in it
  But you can't have
  My dreams in exchange
  'Cause I came to you
  With an open mind
  With my heart full of hope
  Of a special kind
  But the doors stayed closed
  For the longest time
  So I thought of inside
  Wondering what I might find
  But you played with my illusion
  'Till my image laughed in my face
  I would have loved to love you
  But my heart needs a different space
  New York, New York ...

  One chance for singing
  To lose ourselves in such a simple melody.
  One love worth saving
  Is worth a million troubles if we make it.
  [Chorus]
  New York, can't find me
  New York, New York
  One life worth living
  Could save us all or lose its way completely
  It's allright, if it's OK
  To find a little peace of mind and hope it stays
  New York, has her timing
  New York, New York
  Empty ourselves in this city.
  Spend every wish on the way.
  It leaves you with nothing to swing from.

  This is no time for Shaking Hands
  This is no time for Backslapping
  This is no time for Marching Bands
  This is no time for Optimism
  This is no time for Endless Thought
  This is no time for my country Right or Wrong

  This is no time to Turn Your Back
  This is no time for Circumlocution
  This is no time for Learned Speech
  This is no time to Count Your Blessings
  This is no time for Private Gain
  This is a time to Put Up or Shut Up
  It won't come back this way again
  This is no time to Swallow Anger
  This is no time to Ignore Hate
  This is no time to be Acting Frivolous
  because the time is getting late
  This is no time for Private Vendettas
  This is no time to not know who you are
  Self knowledge is a dangerous thing
  The freedom of who you are
  This is no time to ignore Warnings
  This is no time to Clear the Plate
  Let's not be sorry after the fact
  and let the past become our fate
  This is no time to turn away and drink
  or some vials of crack
  This is a time to gather force
  and take dead aim and Attack
  This is no time for Celebration
  This is no time for Saluting Flags
  This is no time for Inner Searchings
  The future is at hand
  This is no time for Phony Rhetoric
  This is no time for Political Speech
  This is a time for Action

  I got a hundred guns, a hundred clips, Nigga I'm from New York (New York)
  I got a semi-automatic that spits next time if you talk (you talk)
  I got a hundred guns, a hundred clips, Nigga I'm from New York (New York)
  I got a semi-automatic that spits next time if you talk (you talk)
  (And I know)
  Yall niggaz is pussy, poonani, (Vagina)
  Your (Monologue's) getting tired, now it's time to ride
  You're print distrified, you're no longer desired
  So take off them silly chains, put back on your wire
  I'm on fire, holly dipped in octane
  Let east coast bang, let west coast bang
  And Rule gonna bring the ghetto gospel
  To every 'hood possible, pushin through in the sky blue
  Back with the gods you now, preferably the 4 pound
  Slugs flyin at the speed of sound
  Tryin to catch the ears of niggaz that's runnin their mouths
  I might get my Brooklyn niggaz to run in your house
  I don't really understand what the runnin's about
  But we're hunters, we take pride in airin our prey out
  Leavin 'em layed out, dead, in just a sport
  'cause we ain't playin up here in New York
  I got a hundred guns, a hundred clips, Nigga I'm from New York (New York)
  And you can tell the way the homie spit, That nigga, I'm from New York (New York)
  I got a hundred ways to make a grip, Yes, I'm from New York (New York)
  And you can tell I get real ignorant, 'cause nigga, I'm from New York (New York)
  (And this is how we do)
  Nigga I can see the coke in your nose
  This ain't a movie, even he got his head blown on the globe
  And I was just about to find god
  But now that Ma$e is back, I think I'd much rather find a menage
  And everybody talkin crazy how they're AK spit
  But we know this investigatin, and they ain't spray shit
  Not me, I'm the truth homie, got the industry shook like
  "Naw nigga, Joe gonna let 'em loose on me"
  True Story, I'm bringin the T back
  Even Roy Jones was forced to (Lean Back)
  My nigga Dre said grind cook
  Now we killin them Howard niggaz, who said I must of found Pun's rhyme book
  Got bitches on top of the Phantom
  And the pinky got bling, like the ring around Saturn
  Cook coke, crack, niggaz fiend for that
  And you already know the x is where the team be at
  I got a hundred guns, a hundred clips, Nigga I'm from New York (New York)
  (Ruff Ryde), and (D-Block) and shit, Nigga fuck what you thought (you thought)
  And you can't take shit for granted, because life is too short (too short)
  I got a hundred guns, a hundred clips, Nigga I'm from New York
  (Aha, and this is how we do)
  I swear it couldn't be sweeter, Life's a bitch
  Depending on how you treat her, you might get rich
  It's guaranteed you gonna die, you might get missed
  For maybe 2 or 3 hours, 'til they light their spliffs
  And that coke will get you a long time
  But when I let 'em know the dope is out, it's like America Online
  Wise has awoken
  And you know they say that you deserved it whenever you die with your eyes open
  I still hold a title, because I'm in the hood like them little motorcycles
  Stick up kids, hoppin out with them old rifles
  Just doin shit for nothin, it's so spiteful
  Ha I'm just like you
  Word that niggaz wanna murk you is in the air
  A double shot of yak and the purple is in the air
  And I'm not cocky, I'm confident
  So when you tell me I'm the best it's a compliment
  I got a hundred guns, a hundred clips, Nigga I'm from New York (New York)
  And you can tell the way the homie spit, cause nigga I'm from new york!
  I got a hundred guns, a hundred clips, Nigga I'm from New York
  I got a semi-automatic that spits next time if you talk..

  Lying on the concrete floor
  The friends around me, four concrete walls
  The silence inside doesn't tell the truth
  Outside people i don't know
  Tell me what they're waiting for
  I close my eyes that i won't see
  Swears in the name of crusifix
  Squeezes his talisman for kicks
  Too many people think too many different things
  Chaos, all insanity
  measuring the pain from me
  Lying here, can't do anything
  Unsatisfied with human rights
  My mind just filled with those dark sights
  that you spread now on TV
  What's the impression you wanna hide?
  Blessed be the icon of our times!
  So let's stay indoors, beware of the dark
  New York
  New York
  New York
  I don't like to see your place
  Living in unbalanced embrace
  Behind the smile it feels unsafe
  Without knowing what you praise
  Someone's just telling how it is
  and people swallow that peace of shit
  The times, they have not changed at all
  What's the impression you wanna hide?
  So blessed be the icon of our times!
  Let's stay indoors, beware of the dark...

  Cause we're all better off in New York
  On the road and out of town
  We're moving on again
  Everything they say is true
  This city is insane

  Nothing's left to chance
  They're throwing rocks and pavings stones
  Who says it has to last?
  On the run

  Cause we're all better dead
  Than be caught
  Maybe best not to talk
  Till New York

  The days were long and the nights so cold
  the pages turned and the tale unfolds
  He'd left me for another lady.
  She stood so tall and she never slept
  There was not one moment he could regret
  He'd left me for another lady
  He took my hand one day and told me he was leaving, me disbelieving and I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I had to let him go
  Her name was New York, New York, and she took his heart away oh my Her name was New York, New York, she had poisoned his sweet mind
  mmm.. The wolves they howled for my lost soul
  I fell down a deep black hole, He'd left me for another lady
  she poured the drinks and she poured the power
  A diamond girl who could talk for hours
  He'd left me for another lady
  Now I am on my own, he told me he was leaving, and I was pleading and I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I had to let him go
  Her name was New York, New York, and she took his heart away oh my, Her name was New York, New York, she had poisoned his sweet mind
  The greatest times, I don't wanna hear it, your new laughter lines
  I don't wanna hear it, the new found friends she introduced you to
  I don't wanna know them I just wanna be with you..

  Crooked cops are searching your asshole, it's the drop

  He roadblock, he flow shots, get Ghost and scram

  Shout out to niggaz that be jerking tags, rollin' in Jags
  Good boy leathers, hood boys'll blast you
  Niggaz that carry ones and hit grass
  And love hip hop, the shit that bring money outta ziplocs
  Protect your dome, I'm warning you, what harm I do to the kid
  I have you on the floor with ya armor loose
  Break the raw down and sign truces
  Then switch the next muthafuckin' date, fuck all excuses
  When you see me it's real, I'm just a natural born hustler
  The castle where they wrap you in plastic, duke
  So every soldier that's armed, remind your general
  It's critical, you might stay a night, if you pretendable

  Yo, we was raised in the dead arm district
  Before guns was called biscuits, Stapleton was on that hood shit

  Did ten hours long and try to wrap us up

  Hopped out to get a dutch, but he left with his wig splitten
  We from New York, my city never sleeps (No)

  When beef pop off, we ain't the one to speak
  Dressed in all black, driving six feet hurses
  With sixteen niggaz, dropping sixteen verses

  New York

  Close to the edge, I'm like a bomb ticking slowly
  Just don't push me if you know what's good for you, I'm
  not that holy.
  I'm an island, I'm a rock
  On an island made of rock
  Concrete flowers, falling towers
  To tell the time, who needs a watch?
  Ain't that just like New York
  Ain't that just like tv
  There's nothin' like New York
  Don't you believe what you see.
  Prechorus
  It's like a jungle (it's like a jungle )
  It's like a jungle sometimes (It's like a jungle
  sometimes)
  It's like a jungle (it's like a jungle)
  It's like a jungle sometimes. (It's like a jungle
  sometimes)
  Chorus
  I got this love for New York, New York
  But I don't think thay she knows
  I said goodbye to New York, New york
  But my heart won't let her go
  I've seen a few things, I've seen fire, I've seen rain
  What I haven't seen's much sunshine,
  Through my window shades of grey
  Baby's crying, Mommy's trying, her very best to make
  ends meet
  Daddy's spot is on the corner, made at least 3 G's last
  week.
  Prechorus
  Chorus
  Still waters run deep on the corners of Wall st.
  Too many cooks in the kitchen
  ,No shepherds for the sheep.
  Only Lawyers and Doctors, like gangsters and mobsters.
  The ground ain't safe anymore, we need police
  helicopters.
  It's like a jungle sometimes, I gotta suit up in
  camouflauge.....or blend with the Philistines,
  And swing a sling on the boulavard.
  Nikes, Converse, Pumas, Addidas
  Everybody's moving fast, but they ain't running to
  Jesus.
  They want blood, watch the spillage
  They wanna conquer and pillage.
  Pillars of Salt, don't look back in the village.

  Are you tuning in
  And I wanted to go
  Half my life
  And I feel kind of strange
  Like I never lived that life
  And I'm trying hard
  To control my heart
  And I always want to know

  New York oh what a city
  New York
  Are you tuning in
  There's now time to unpack, yea
  Let's get straight out on the street
  And feel no inhibitions
  This city was built for me
  And my head is full of questions
  When did I feel this good
  In the arms of my lover
  Burning through the night of New York
  And its funny how time flies
  In the city that never sleeps
  It's getting after hours
  And I'm feeling the heat
  I'm almost dead and buried
  The day nearly done
  But I want to keep on going
  I'm going to kiss the sun in New York
  And I'm feeling kind of selfish
  Cause I'm just flying home
  I've been busy on your island
  Just having my own fun
  It's an English tradition
  Find some money make some time
  Get busy on your island

  Main Voice: CARLO
  Produced by Continental Drifters
  Released on 'Continental Drifters' (1995)
  You said it from New York
  With a tear in your eye
  You said it from a pay phone
  I say it was a lie
  'Cause you said it with indifference
  I heard it that way too
  And even the color blind
  Know what's black from white, oh right.
  And you don't have to shout
  I hear you fine
  I'm not tryin' to wear you out
  But don't expect me to ease you
  It seems such an injustice
  Given the way we feel
  I guess sometimes
  It just turns out like that.
  All handle each rejection
  Kinda tired, rather careless, I find it hard to breathe
  And if you don't want to see me cry
  Don't ever say goodbye.
  I can't pin it on him
  Girl, I can't blame you
  From the ring on your finger
  I guess I always knew
  It seems such an injustice
  Given the way we feel
  I guess sometimes
  It just turns out like that.
  All handle each rejection
  Kinda tired, rather careless, I find it hard to breathe
  And if you don't want to se me cry
  Don't ever say goodbye.
  Don't ever say goodbye.
  You said it from New York
  With a tear in your eye
  You said it from a pay phone
  I say it was a lie
  'Cause you said it with indifference
  And I'm sure I heard it true
  And even the color blind
  Know about ya.
  I am, girl
  I'm so scared of bein' alone
  In this place so faraway
  From what I call home
  If you don't want to see me cry
  Don't ever say goodbye.
  Don't ever say goodbye
  Don't ever say, don't ever say

  New York

  In New York freedom looks like
  Too many choices
  In New York I found a friend
  To drown out the other voices
  Voices on the cell phone
  Voices from home
  Voices of the hard sell
  Voices down the stairwell
  In New York
  Just got a place in New York
  In New York summers get hot
  Well into the hundreds
  You can't walk around the block
  Without a change of clothin'
  Hot as a hairdryer in your face
  Hot as a handbag and a can of mace
  New York
  I just got a place in New York
  New York
  (New York)
  New York
  In New York you can forget
  Forget how to sit still
  Tell yourself you will stay in
  But it's down to Alphaville
  New York
  New York, New York
  New York, New York
  New York
  (Aoo)
  The Irish have been comin' here for years
  Feel like they own the place
  They got the airport, city hall, asphalt, dance floor
  They even got the police
  Irish, Italians, Jews and Hispanics
  Religious nuts, political fanatics in the stew
  Happily, not like me and you
  That's where I lost you, New York
  New York, New York
  New York
  New York, New York
  New York
  Aoo ooo
  New York
  Aoo ooo
  In New York I lost it all
  To you and your vices
  Still I'm stayin' on to figure out
  My mid life crisis
  I hit an iceberg in my life
  You know I'm still afloat
  You lose your balance, lose your wife
  In the queue for the lifeboat
  You got to put the women and children first
  But you've got an unquenchable thirst for New York
  New York
  New York
  New York, New York
  In the stillness of the evening
  When the sun has had it's day
  I heard your voice whisperin'
  Come away now
  New, New York
  New, New York
  Aoo ooo

  New York

  You got your start, you went to New York. Yeah. It's enormous
  You went to see just where the wild wind blows
  And it's more than you
  You are in New York
  This is heavy
  No doubt about that
  Dreams will happen
  You cross your heart and hope you never die in this life
  You want to feel how deep the new world breathes
  And it's more than you
  You are in New York
  This is heavy
  No doubt about that
  This is heaven
  And then one day, you rock the USA. Yeah! Wow!
  And it's more than you
  You are in New York
  Streetlights glitter
  brighter than stars
  This is heavy
  No doubt about that
  This is heaven

  New York

  [Intro:]
  And you say New York City!
  Duane 'Darock', KRS
  [Chorus: female singers]
  It's New Yorrrrrrrrrk, and we livin
  The whole world, it knows, your name
  It's New Yorrrrrrrrrk, and we livin
  The whole world, it knows, your name
  [over Chorus:]
  Lenox Avenue, Park Ave
  Long Island I see you baby
  Jamaican Ave, Queens
  KRS, let's go!
  [KRS-One:]
  New, York, City, get it right, get it tight, get it hype
  New York City's in the house tonight
  All day, off and on, Broadway
  The world's Big Apple is what they all say
  Wait, way back in the day
  Dudes from the South migrated this way North
  Lookin for the higher pay of course
  Led by the forces they became big bosses
  Like Rick Ross is, the city that never sleeps
  Yup, New York is
  If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere
  What's that?
  [Chorus]
  [over Chorus:]
  Flatbush! Brooklyn (we live this)
  BX Bronx, c'mon
  Gun Hill Road, Grand Concourse
  [KRS-One:]
  New, York, City, still part of my heart, still part of my start
  As you can see it's still, part of my art
  Still part of my lesson plan, listen man~!
  N.Y., every year we fresh again
  I be doin South Bronx everywhere I go
  Everywhere I go, every nation know
  I'm a New York dude that's not New York rude
  All over the world I eat New York food
  Ha, I'm at home anywhere, any place
  Right now somebody from New York in this place
  Yeah, no matter where I be
  I'll always be N-Y-C
  [Chorus]
  [over Chorus:]
  Coney Island! Brighton Beach
  Wooo, Red Hook!
  I see you Canal Street, Delancey Street
  Hester Street, c'mon, New York let's go
  [KRS-One:]
  New, York, City, metropolitan life, cosmopolitan life
  It put the strength inside of my life
  But New York City got it's challenges also
  Racism, sexism, crime, you all know!
  Them guns that keep goin off bustin
  And another one bites the dust when
  Conflicts arise and dudes start bustin
  And cussin, I gotta speak to this
  New York is not unique in this
  But if we keep sewing this we gonna keep reapin this
  I'm teachin this, we gotta overcome our weaknesses
  Remember man!
  [Chorus]
  [over Chorus:]
  Big up to the firefighters, rest in peace
  World Trades y'know
  Brooklyn! The Bronx, Queens
  Manhattan! Staten Island! New York love it baby
  [Chorus]
  [over Chorus:]
  South Bronx
  South Bronx, big 'em up!
  Rest in peace Jam Master Jay, Big Pun
  Big L, Randy Parker
