NY, big city of dreams
I'm an upstate fella with a heart of a king
and a part of it stings, but I'm partial to pain
Fame and blame never change always remain the same uhh..
Yea..
Ever since day one..
I'm stepping to the plate wishing they would say something
Make something, take something..
even fake something..
having one of those days
Wishing I could break something.
(Chorus)
Yea, heard sleep was the cousin..
been slept on so I must be something
Been crept on, but they kep-kept coming
Cause I got it in the bag like that mc mclovin
Joe DiMaggio man the hits keep running
Up the score now they got what's coming
Uh so raw
fuck my flaws
It's who I am I'm from new York.
(Chorus)
Mommas only son so you could say I'm shining
Spit like an uzi but I sparkle like a diamond.
Even got other guys girls co-signing.
It's all about the love I say its all about the timing
My god.. is all about divine things
feelin like Kobe in his prime minus five rings.
Mickey Mantle..
Lou Gerhig, Went from dk to ny call me Donna Karen.
call me what you want
and see me not caring
Tell me its a front You get my back keep staring.
I'm always on the grind I thought it was apparent .
Now one last time for those who not hearing ..
I'm from new York...
Funny guy, nothing but the nuisance
I'll make more change with your two cents
Ambition is a bitch but I could not abuse it
Ignorance is bliss but I could not confuse it
So who is the coolest
Freshest, the rudest
Boy wann test me
Nuh, that be foolish
The rule is of thumb
Nu number one
It don't really truly even matter where you're from
But I'm from New York and I got it in my blood.
And ill ride for the west on some California love.
Yea... But this is where I came from...
If you knew me back then
I'm still the same one
stepping to the plate... wishing they would say something
Make something, take something..
even fake something..
having one of those days
Wishing I could break something.
And you know what? I don't play cousin..
(Chorus)
