| [00:16.30] |
In the city, I'm always awake |
| [00:22.50] |
There's a symphony of music in the street |
| [00:27.33] |
And I get high to drown it out |
| [00:30.09] |
But it don't work, it just gets louder |
| [00:32.90] |
In the city, in the city |
| [00:38.50] |
The big apple took a bite out of me |
| [00:41.60] |
Look what I turned out to be |
| [00:43.55] |
I wonder if my mama really means it when she says that she's proud of me |
| [00:47.32] |
Or is she tripping, is she lying |
| [00:49.05] |
Is she on to all my lies? Mean that shit ain't rocket science |
| [00:51.46] |
I've been coming home at four, and my eyes been red as sirens |
| [00:53.99] |
I miss slurring all my words when she asked me how my night went |
| [00:57.38] |
I swear it's them white boys, it's them white boys |
| [00:59.41] |
Everything they do is so much doper than my life been |
| [01:02.13] |
I don't got that type of money, I don't got that finance |
| [01:04.96] |
She's like, why you so lazy trying to get by |
| [01:07.20] |
Back before I smoked, I wasn't even tryna get high |
| [01:09.96] |
Cigarette breaks at lunch time |
| [01:12.26] |
Bong rips to my face, I passed out at Dave's place |
| [01:15.21] |
In the morning tryna get right |
| [01:17.49] |
Nigga's got a curfew, you ain't ready for these bright lights |
| [01:19.74] |
In the city, I'm always awake |
| [01:24.56] |
There's a symphony of music in the street |
| [01:29.35] |
And I get high to drown it out |
| [01:32.00] |
But it don't work, it just gets louder |
| [01:34.81] |
In the city, in the city |
| [01:40.14] |
You really changed, change is good |
| [01:43.63] |
When you said don't let the city change you, I think it should |
| [01:45.89] |
Come from different angles, see it different ways |
| [01:48.66] |
I don't got the money, maybe we can make a trade |
| [01:51.09] |
If I can make you laugh, you can spot me cash |
| [01:53.68] |
What's the move on Tues? Yo I heard its ave |
| [01:56.34] |
These girls are kinda bougie, mom calls 'em "fast" |
| [01:58.88] |
Some say you pretentious but I call it class |
| [02:01.42] |
Prep school boys with their collars popped |
| [02:04.09] |
Coming through the spot, always see you with your sleeves rolled up |
| [02:07.57] |
Even with a uniform I could never do the norm |
| [02:11.93] |
How could I forget? I be on some shit |
| [02:13.91] |
Now I rock sweats and I still get it |
| [02:16.41] |
New kids never fit in, I wasn't any different |
| [02:19.35] |
Had to get my mind right, wasn't ready for those bright lights |
| [02:21.76] |
In the city, I'm always awake |
| [02:26.50] |
There's a symphony of music in the street |
| [02:31.24] |
And I get high to drown it out |
| [02:33.91] |
But it don't work, it just gets louder |
| [02:36.82] |
In the city, in the city |
| [02:43.77] |
Let's do something dangerous |
| [02:48.43] |
Break the rules, yeah let's shake it up |
| [02:54.02] |
Let's do something dangerous |
| [02:58.22] |
In the city that was made for us |
| [03:03.38] |
Let's do something dangerous |
| [03:09.06] |
Break the rules, yeah let's shake it up |
| [03:14.27] |
Let's do something dangerous |
| [03:19.39] |
In the city that was made for us |
| [03:23.93] |
In the city, I'm always awake |
| [03:28.47] |
There's a symphony of music in the street |
| [03:33.27] |
And I get high to drown it out |
| [03:35.75] |
But it don't work, it just gets louder |
| [03:38.75] |
In the city, in the city |
| [03:44.75] |
