[00:13.020] Right next to DeNiro
[00:14.360] But I’ll be hood forever
[00:15.960] I’m the new Sinatra
[00:17.190] And since I made it here
[00:18.350] I can make it anywhere
[00:20.270] Yeah, they love me everywhere
[00:21.460] I used to cop in Harlem

[00:24.140] Right there up on Broadway
[00:25.740] Brought me back to that McDonalds
[00:26.990] Took it to my stash spot
[00:28.210] 560 State street
[00:29.550] Catch me in the kitchen like a Simmons whipping pastry
[00:32.520] Cruising down 8th street
[00:33.810] Off-white Lexus
[00:35.300] Driving so slow but BK is from Texas
[00:38.020] Me I’m out that Bed-Stuy
[00:39.350] Home of that boy Biggie
[00:40.700] Now I live on Billboard
[00:42.130] And I brought my boys with me
[00:43.700] Say what up to Ty Ty, still sipping mai tais
[00:46.510] Sitting courtside Knicks and Nets give me high fives
[00:49.200] Nigga I be Spiked out, I can trip a referee
[00:51.890] Tell by my attitude that I most definitely from
[00:55.220] New York
[00:57.950] Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

[01:09.670] These streets will make you feel brand new
[01:13.110] Big lights will inspire you
[01:15.930] Let's hear it for New York
[01:22.500] Catch me at the X with OG at a Yankee game
[01:25.110] Shit, I made the Yankee hat more famous than a Yankee can
[01:28.080] You should know I bleed Blue, but I ain't a Crip, though
[01:30.850] But I got a gang of niggas walking with my clique though
[01:33.560] Welcome to the melting pot
[01:34.910] Corners where we selling rocks
[01:36.320] Afrika Bambaataa shit
[01:37.690] Home of the hip-hop
[01:39.120] Yellow cab, gypsy cab, dollar cab, holla back
[01:41.690] For foreigners it ain't fair, they act like they forgot how to add
[01:44.480] 8 million stories out there in the naked
[01:47.220] City, it's a pity half of y’all won’t make it
[01:50.020] Me I gotta plug Special Ed "I Got It Made"
[01:52.690] If Jeezy's paying LeBron, I’m paying Dwyane Wade
[01:55.720] 3 dice Cee-lo, 3 card Monte
[01:58.420] Labor Day Parade, rest in peace Bob Marley
[02:01.200] Statue of Liberty, long live the World trade
[02:03.830] Long live the king yo
[02:05.330] I’m from the Empire State, that's:
[02:07.280] New York
[02:10.010] Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
[02:13.840] There's nothing you can’t do
[02:17.070] Now you’re in New York
[02:21.730] These streets will make you feel brand new
[02:24.910] Big lights will inspire you
[02:27.800] Let's hear it for New York
[02:35.230] Lights is blinding
[02:36.580] Girls need blinders
[02:37.750] So they can step out of bounds quick
[02:39.450] The side lines is lined with casualties
[02:41.970] Who sip the life casually, then gradually become worse
[02:44.970] Don’t bite the apple, Eve
[02:46.460] Caught up in the in-crowd
[02:47.770] Now you're in-style
[02:48.680] And in the winter gets cold en vogue with your skin out
[02:51.550] The city of sin is a pity on a whim
[02:54.080] Good girls gone bad, the city's filled with 'em
[02:57.420] Mommy took a bus trip and now she got her bust out
[02:59.940] Everybody ride her, just like a bus route
[03:02.970] "Hail Mary" to the city, you're a virgin
[03:05.470] And Jesus can’t save you, life starts when the church ends
[03:08.380] Came here for school, graduated to the high life
[03:11.170] Ball players, rap stars, addicted to the limelight
[03:14.070] MDMA got you feeling like a champion
[03:16.460] The city never sleeps, better slip you a Ambien
[03:19.180] New York

[03:47.590] One hand in the air for the big city
[03:50.110] Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty
[03:52.800] No place in the world that can compare
[03:55.720] Put your lighters in the air, everybody say "yea!"
[04:03.120] New York
