[00:00.000] Yo, preem, play me that billy joel joint

[00:44.765] On part two, I left you with two of my friends
[00:47.077] And now our goals is that our sons don't end in juvenile pens
[00:50.032] Rikers should be closed, mdc to beacon
[00:52.434] Wear ice if you real, or they'll rob you and pawn your piece in
[00:55.469] If you was locked down for a while, it's a different place now
[00:58.402] They building hotels where it once was a devil's playground
[01:01.296] Michelin star's cool, but the streets is cooking that beef stew
[01:04.549] That chopped cheese too
[01:06.110] Screwface how we smile
[01:07.462] They want us gone, but that's fine

[01:19.668] Hop a flight to miami beach or to hollywood
[01:23.120] What a city
[01:25.240] But I'm taking a greyhound on the hudson river line
[01:26.993] Knicks, mets, yanks, jets, nets, giants, islanders, rangers, the world

[01:34.950]
[01:35.714] And we got fit jumping up
[01:37.696] Hittin' pull-ups and dips on scaffoldings
[01:39.949] Potholes still be hard on our whips
[01:42.040] Never ending nightlife, supermodels, events, some art galleries
[01:46.005] I can name some clubs that no longer exist
[01:48.449] The limelight, the tunnel, and the palladium
[01:51.342] All night we stayed in them fly
[01:52.870] Wave in the sky if you was made it in ny
[01:55.078] And wouldn't trade it to the day that you die
[01:57.262] The most hated and I think we know why
[01:59.529] Now, rappers we know as legends drift and float to heaven
[02:02.517] Some are living in present-day I miss '87
[02:05.675] In queens, was a teen then, a kid with a chain
[02:08.233] Holding a pen and wrote pain, we'll never see this again
[02:11.172] So I let ring replace the peep holes, I'm suited in boutique clothes
[02:15.527] We're just inclined to defeat foes
[02:17.711] The five boroughs where real life is defined, y'all know the time
[02:21.054] When I'm in the new york state of mind
[02:23.184]
[02:23.952] The opposition teams walk in the garden, mockingly rockin' timbs and the nas tee
[02:23.957] Some folks like to get away
