Lyrics:
when the nightfall will melt
As in time we'll slowly drip our last goodbyes
'Cause Bliss, it's snowing in the summertime
My city was made of rock,
absentee but minds you don't sleep
It took her feelings to raise me lean taught me how to read
By the time I went to school I was in high speed
Ready
Of the both of us back then
Our city’s just a memory that I’m trying to forget
Past curfew in the village
Dared you to and you did
It’s all in the past, but it
I went walking through the city
Didn’t see a soul I recognize
It’s times like these I’m missing my mountains
Down by the river in the summertime
In
polite, some rude instead
The melting pot is overflowing with lead
In the winter is brick, the summertime is like a sweltering hotbed
Manhattan keeps
sweater in the cold
Hug you tight and sittin' by the window
The New York City lights put on a show
You tell me baby that you love me so
I'm here, I'm now
a minute
Together, we're in it to win it
In the summertime, we touch to the music
In the Hollywood nights, down on Sunset Strip
In the summertime
Park Hill
Staten Island New York City
Check for a nigga check for a nigga
If you in Maryland check for a nigga
If you in Virginia check
in the city and she getting mula
C is for the crib
The cats that call you catch
Cbgb's babies sneaking Blondie through the back
D is for
make the winter feel like summertime, yeah
You make the winter feel like, yeah
I been chilling in the summertime
Back home is a cold city
And I got
Park Hill
Staten Island, New York City
Check for a nigga, check for a nigga
If you in Maryland, check for a nigga
If you in Virginia, check for
a wonderful town
I’ll take manhattan
The bronx and staten island too
It’s lovely going through the zoo
The great big city’s a wondrous toy
Just made for
Stone Forest
In the city see the buildings dem ah grow like trees
And the love disappear, just like the bees
Oh mother nature i beg you please
Summertime where the sun goes down in the city and the people park their cars
The postman's sweet and the girls look pretty, as their lining up for
Surrounded by beauty in my hot cold city
Where niggas are the realest
And the girls are always pretty
I did a lot growing up and it's still all with me
And two tall towers crumble to the floor
And Manhattan isn't there
It's there no more
In the silence of the city no mobile phones ring
In the silence
and my camera eyes, sitting on a fence,
Laughing at the lights of New York City.
Alice you remind of Manhattan;
The seedy and snaz, the shoeboys
the greatest city in the world!
In the greatest city in the world!
'Cause I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine (Look around, look around) {Hey! Hey!
sometimes find
That Sun City is in the mind
I was just watching the TV the other night
The should appear but you know
Walter Cronkite said the Blues
And it
You and I, summertime (ay)
Under city lights (yeah)
Sipping tea in the Kyoto breeze
Intoxicated by the love you feed
Give me love
Give me love, yeah I
Shawty came through in the summertime
(Hooo! Heyyy! Hooo! Heyyy)
TIPY GOT THE BEATS THAT MAKE YOU JUMP
(Hooo! Heyyy! Hooo)
H'riiiiight
H'right
Shawty
Summertime in the city, all the girls dress hot,
Make the boys go silly, there they go,
Walking 'round the streets downtown on a wonder
Effect is
by a shadetree
Some old bricks and boards all around
She begged me to take her to see New York city
So I mortaged the farm and we were gone
But while
Nothing's gonna stop me
I know where I should be!
I need to go on the cover of a new york moon
One manhattan night to set my stars alight
Just a city lover
