[00:15.71]This city is my city
[00:19.36]And I love it, I love it
[00:23.15]I was born and raised here
[00:25.34]I’ve got it made here
[00:27.53]And if I have my way I’m gonna stay here
[00:31.28]From every Corner to every block
[00:38.95]Whether it’s warm or storming
[00:41.60]Or downright stupid hot
[00:47.04]From the problems
[00:50.55]All the way to the solutions
[00:54.89]Forget all the drugs and gangs
[00:57.66]Corruption and pollution
[01:03.46]This city is my city
[01:07.19]And I love it, I love it
[01:10.89]I was born and raised here
[01:13.18]I’ve got it made here
[01:15.13]And if I have my way I’m gonna stay here
[01:19.82]For life For life
[01:23.62]For life For life
[01:26.72]For life For life
[01:31.50]For life For life
[01:35.51]From every high rise
[01:38.91]Down to every slum
[01:42.90]From every unethical politician
[01:45.50]To the wise, old, beat up bum
[01:50.93]My city and I our hearts beat beat beat together
[01:55.32]When I’m home we both breathe breathe breathe together
[01:59.27]This place is my home
[02:01.41]Wherever I go I take it with me
[02:07.44]This city is my city
[02:11.40]And I love it, I love it
[02:15.09]I was born and raised here
[02:17.34]I’ve got it made here
[02:19.44]And if I have my way I’m gonna stay here

[02:27.45]For life For life
[02:31.54]For life For life
[02:35.43]For life For life
[02:40.06]
[02:48.04]You can take my picture
[02:50.29]You can take my name
[02:51.64]But you’re never gonna take my city away from me
[02:56.04]You could burn it to the ground
[02:58.97]Or let it flood but it’s in my blood
[03:03.57]This city is my city
[03:07.64]And I love it, I love it
[03:11.17]I was born and raised here
[03:13.70]I’ve got it made here
[03:15.47]And if I have my way I’m gonna stay here
