And you say New York City!
Duane 'Darock', KRS
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
Lenox Avenue, Park Ave
Long Island I see you baby
Jamaican Ave, Queens kRS, let's go!
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?
Flatbush! Brooklyn (we live this)
BX Bronx, c'mon
Gun Hill Road, Grand Concourse
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'!
NY, 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
Coney Island! Brighton Beach wooo, Red Hook!
I see you Canal Street, Delancey Street
Hester Street, c'mon, New York let's go
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!
Big up to the firefighters, rest in peace
World Trades y'know
Brooklyn! The Bronx, Queens
Manhattan! Staten Island! New York
Love it baby
South Bronx south Bronx, big 'em up!
Rest in peace Jam Master Jay, Big Pun
Big L, Randy Parker
You with us for life rest in peace my brother
