Like this town was never mine, getting stuck on every line Coming up on ever corner, danger in my mind I Pull tricks outta my hat, more tricks up both my sleeve Trouble won't let sleep, I'm wondering what's left for me This City got me deep in hell or high water I'm feeling quite bothered, The streets are quiet watch out We grew up being kids, we screwed up this our ship Loving don't cost a thing yet we sell it for shiny things Green papers made Pete, pull up pull trigger please Pause, I feel perplexed, got me panning panicking mode Yeah I killed the show, cost me more than my soul Polish all that I own, punish me for my gold Placing bets with my soul, surely I'll be dethroned Found out this City never sleep it's our DNA code Till respect became a myth, death became a thing I want that Martin Luther dream, but son you never sleep This city got me going boy suit and ties This city going boy you look a clown This city going suicide This city going boy please stick around This city got me going boy suit and ties This city going boy you look a clown This city going suicide This city going boy please stick around To media it's gang wars, war dogs with Mohawk Demons and dreadlocks, cops knock on our doors Joggers and ripoffs, street screaming blood lust Police tape so long, we don't even need sidewalks Five baby mama, one baby father Satan Maria, my spanglish never proper Dropouts on dark wall, side piece pop out Damn! We got a stand off as the coroner stands up Some days are better than most my city loving it's ghosts I know they calling you hell, I bet you feeling the cold I know you just wanna grow, I know you just wanna grow Tell all the ship that has sailed, I'll be watching the coast I'll never let you drown, I will find your goal I'll never let you down, never lemme drown And if I dizzy drive, on a dangerous road Get me to auto zone, this city gets me home This city got me going boy suit and ties This city going boy you look a clown This city going suicide This city going boy please stick around This city got me going boy suit and ties This city going boy you look a clown This city going suicide This city going boy please stick around So I keep on my toes, I live on the road My eyes on my goals, I leap on a toad I pay what I owe, I own how I roll Won’t live for the dough, won’t live for the dough Cos what if it takes too long rise? For these hungry folks So I pray when I don’t, feel like I should I’m never too bold, I’m always too cold I pray I grow old, but feel like I’m young Cos now that I’m young, I feel like I'm old And boy do these people keep stepping on my lawn Sitting on these sidelines for way too long Hiding secrets way too ugly that could dirty dawn But I’m gon talk about it consequently in my songs But now lets get back to how this city has done me wrong They say “Well I don’t mean to judge” Before they do the judgement I’ll never parley with your parliament My government is hidden in the firmament But still I love you cos I know that you just missing On something that’s only fundament-al
