Born in the City (feat. Ceschi) Video (MV)

When I was young
My mother used to say
Jose, cuidado por ahi
Now I'm here to say
You were right
But I had to stray
Away from the lights
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
I couldn't take the lights any longer
They stood against what I hungered
I needed to
Get away
I promise you
It wasn't you
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Cause when I asked those lights to stop
They said we won't
Cause when I asked those lights to stop
They said we won't
And I couldn't find it in me to stay
Oh to stay
Oh this city taught me things that I never wanted to learn
How to rock up cocaine on a Fair Haven stove
How to take a beating from a cop or mace in my face
Mother tried to take me away from the hate in this place
But it found its way to the depths of my heart
So I pray for a new start
Only wanna make art
Make my mark on the face of the earth
Gotta take my falls gotta put in work
And keep this thirst
For life
In a bit of each verse and word
Till I'm in a hearse
Ima speak my mind so the truth is heard
These lights are bright and blinding
Highway entrances winding
Like veins throughout the space
Under gray New Haven horizon
I'm fighting for this life
And I am dying to keep this freedom
The city will not stop me
They caught me but I'm still breathing
When I asked those lights stop
They said we won't
And when I asked those lights to stop
They said we won't
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
Oh, I was born in the city
Raised in the city
Oh oh
