StatenI'm from |
|
New York City, birthplace of the gritty |
|
Dog eat dog, only jakes willing to work with me |
|
Watch your back 'fore they lace your sizurp with a mickey |
|
Bodies'll burn like dub sacks of purple sticky |
|
Kojaks developing |
|
Kodaks of your meeting engagements |
|
The young guns put pressure on the made men |
|
The fiends'll, they'll cap you for your package |
|
The mass act savage, living sis' selling her ass and tits |
|
Your best friend'll send shots to wet ya |
|
The badlands, hammers on the waistband, the regular |
|
Trapped in this hood dwelling, selling five and dime' |
|
Cuz ain't 9 to 5 for two-time felons |
|
And little man wanna be just like me |
|
The sadness thing, he just might be |
|
Where the livest, |
|

Walken, King of |
|
New York and |

Resort to talking when the heaters on him, grieving on him |

StatenOl' blue eyes said, "You make it here, you make it anywhere" |
|
Drug wars for every square, bloodsport, the semi's air |
|
Now watch where you walk through, watch who you talk to |
|
Watch the young |
|
Gotti's, the'll off you |
|
It's like the mafia plot |
|
The fishermen, they find more bodies then cops |
|
But the shots don't stop, trynna get it get it |
|
Inside where the broads and the ballers kick it |
|
Big city lights, with chicks and ice |
|
You living, you victim to them sick gritty types |
|
Drooling with their tongues out, guns out, spraying clips |
|
Who lay in the pits and pray for a taste of it |
|
If you can sleep, you awaken by the loud sound |
|
Of barking chrome, sound foul but |
|
I call it home |
|
So keep heat when on the roam |
|
Speak brief when on the phone |
|
In these mean streets you all alone |
