[00:00.08]"Like, when you were playing it before, it was like a little..."
[00:02.41]"A little bit"
[00:08.30]"Yeah"
[00:09.65]It's a long walk to paradise and wishing on the stars
[00:12.27]They make you feel delusion like looking at a mirage
[00:14.74]And persisting on this road you can see it inside my scars
[00:17.15]Wish I had a genie that come a lead me like I'm Jafar, magic
[00:20.22]My grandmother lived to 96 she beat the cancer, outlived four of her kids, this shit is tragic
[00:24.81]And she still beileve the Bible to this very same day
[00:27.34]And it made her life amazing, I ain't expecting her to change
[00:30.07]Lookin' for nirvanas further than the eyes view
[00:32.86]Don't let pre-determined destinies define you
[00:35.39]My rude planet and Flatbush where my mind grew
[00:37.73]Into the trees to drop seeds around the globe too
[00:40.24]Botanists waterin' their hearts to grow confidence
[00:42.63]The bloom seeds are comin' to you, was brought with dominance
[00:45.26]No document, seven couldn't taste the fruit of knowledge
[00:47.52]Only true to breath of living cause you understand the science
[00:50.23]Yo, school of hardknocks, it can make you, it can break you
[00:52.62]As a youngin' growing up, we cussed and caught some cases
[00:55.21]Five percenters on that corner, mistaken As-salamu alaykum
[00:57.89]Got my wisdom from the city lights, but don't get blind, baby
[01:00.25]Always on the grind daily, uh
[01:01.86]Overtime, got that New York state of mind
[01:03.63]Hate me, but I still survive
[01:04.99]Visit the bodega, I'm just happy papa still alive
[01:07.44]Pull up on my nigga, roll a spliff up and just catch a vibe
[01:10.33]Yellow cab to the spinach, super fast, gotta get it
[01:12.80]Brooklyn nigga, keep it with it
[01:14.07]Cross the bridge, you might regret it (uh)
[01:15.75]Hardly ever live relaxed, NYPD on our backs
[01:18.24]That graffiti on the track, ain't no treaty, where's the gat?
[01:20.94]Rotten Apple, people roam the streets like cattle
[01:23.52]Most travel for us, the globe, would goals unravel?
[01:25.95]It's a juggle, everyday, could be prey in the battle
[01:28.43]So would you rather be the sheep or the king in the castle?
[01:31.02]"This for those who know..."
[01:50.85]New York city, broke the chains and the shackles
[01:53.23]Tryna navigate the world, it's living inside the apple
[01:55.78]Run back in the game, shake and move through the tackles
[01:58.30]Know the mary twist and turn like you opening up a Snapple
[02:00.85]If you make it in my city, ain't no limit chasing, silly
[02:03.32]Know my pigment got you weary, but I'm still gon' get this milli'
[02:05.89]In the weekend, I'm in billy or in soul, I'm getting litty
[02:08.44]Getting promo by your bitty, yeah, you know I love this city, ay
[02:11.19](Yeah, you know I love this city, ay)
