Yea..
'Til you live in this city
You don't really know man

City so nice they named it twice
City so nice shoulda named it life
When you down and out you break bread with mice
On the search of cheese your whole world get cold as ice
To make it worse money lives next door
Yo you just moved in? Nah I just clean their floors
Oh ok ese let's say we play
A little game called how we gon' get rich today
It ain't about your race or where you used to play
The playground more colored than an Easter egg
Yo I moved here at 14 big ass dreams
I wanted to play 1st base on the Yankees team
But varsity I wasn't a star by the 12th grade
And the theatre director gave me a lead on the stage
So I flipped the page hit the downtown art scene
New York, New York the whole world's watching
So when I walk in just keep it New York cool
You know how you do "Yeah I know you dude how you do?
I like your style last thing I'll do is say it"
That's cool you stink get outta my way bitch
I gotta keep on moving I gotta keep on doing
Everything I can make sure this whack shit is ruined
And until the Big Apple stands here in ruins
Imma stay increasing capital maintain both shoes in
Cuz ain't nobody choosing my destiny but me
Mother Mary could call but I can't let it be
And uh actors act and uh talkers talk
Players play so I guess New Yorkers New York

That's the first thing you need to know about moving here
It's a job to live here
Like literally
So you gotta know your position

Round here we just tryna live right
Single life with way more than a single strife
City got a special way to make you feel like
You ain't jack by day, but you're Queen and King of the night
I guess thats why I keep an ace in my back pocket
Picture of my own face in my chain locket
My case ain't that of an orphan but
I wouldn't mind the taste of Daddy Warbucks
You know sugar and spice and everything nice
Rainbows and sunshine do I have to say it twice
Paradise some say its a myth well if it is guess what
Ignorance is bliss
I'm using every last one of my gifts
To sift through the bullshit niggas tryna pull shit
Stay over there with your way too cool shit
What's my name Prince Harvey and I'm here to rule shit
So where the king at? cuz I'm in Kings County
Brooklyn bounty hunting anybody doubt me
NYC cream of the crop you know the best
If I could make it here yea Imma show you the rest
You know that I'm blessed right
Strolling through the city with an 'S' on my chest right
My future make the sun look less bright
Step into my mind Imma take you on a test flight
Peep this it's just me and my peeps
The kings and the queens that I roll with shit
And this game we playing for keeps
So you can't really you can't really f*ck with us

You gotta know you social circle
You gotta know...
(Can't f*ck wit this nigga)
What your friend to co-worker ratio is gon' be

Lets keep it real ain't no place greater
You wanna be a winner then you better be a playmaker
Pawns get eaten on the boardwalk
Walking down Broadway yellow tape white chalk
Why talk if you ain't plan to do shit
I could tell you ain't 'bout it we ain't been introduced yet
Best believe it's a jungle out here
Cue the church bells we ready to rumble out here
Smell fear from a mile out
Cold shoulder you ain't down to wyle out
No shade I'm just tryna shelter you
You a plain glass of water I ain't bout to Alka Seltzer you
City so nice, with a twist
Welcome to the dark side step into the mist
Before you know it you have been enlisted
New York City's school of the gifted

But are you gon' make them grades tho?
That's what's important, are you gonna pass the test, nigga?
Are you ready? Are you down for the challenge?
You down for the count, motherfucker?
Mother mother fucker?
That's what it is. That's -
That's what separates those who make it, and those who don't
It's like.. it's just just a big ass, it's just a big ass school
It's just like high school
You know we all come in
You kinda zoned in the motherfucker cuz you here
And you go to school just like everybody else
Now some of us do extra curricular activities
Some of us gotta keep our grades up
Cuz of, uh... sports teams or whatever the f*ck
Ummm... some of us is on the honor roll
And some of us taking college AP courses
And some of us just sit in the hallway
You know what I'm saying
Some of us dress the part and get seen in the cafeteria
Hehe, you know
But at the end of the day, it's like
Who graduates? And like
Who's Valedictorian?
Who gets to speak about your generation
