This City Sözleri

Now what if I told you my city was the best

And my city was a threat to the rest

And my city was a threat to the rest

This city is my city

And I love it, yeah I love it

I was born and raised here

I got it made here

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay

From every corner

To every block yeah

And whether it's warm or storming it down or right stupid hot, hot

From the colors all the way to the solutions yeah

Forget all the drugs and gangs, corruption and pollution no

Cause this city is my city

And I love it, yeah I love it

I was born and raised here

I got it made here

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay here

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

Now what if I told you my city was the best

And my city was a threat to the rest

But you can't rest inside my city

My city's so cold if you ain't dressed

And what they accept, better had a right address

Come to my city, certain colors can't step

And sadly I'm talking about the color of your skin

Sorry my brother can't let you in

Cause the property value might go down to a level that's

Economically unacceptable and socially tabu fast to live around you

Uh, uh, is this what it's down to?

Roof for the same team, n*gga had the same dream

Not the same reality,

Actually, mines is a bad education and gentrification

Despite all the above I love...

This city is my city

And I love it, yeah I love it

I was born and raised here

I got it made here

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay here

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

And you can take it back

Picture, you can take it back

But you're never gonna take my city away

Cause you can burn it to the ground

Oh or let it flood, but it's in my blood

Cause this city is my city

And I love it, yeah I love it

I was born and raised here

I got it made here

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay here

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life, uh huh

For life...
