"New York New York" lyrics
(Militia)
New York, New York (Yeah)
Grimy niggas'll line you
Act like they tryna find out who robbed you
Lessons you learn here come right out the Bible
Kids in the halls, spit on the walls, piss on the floor
Dirty diapers and bloody syringes laid by your door
A neighbor might've told on you before, he a pedophile
They'd rather die off that shit than get a child, the face'll never smile
Out in the courtyard, you might've found me playin', now they lobby layin'
Like you walked out of Resident Evil into Zombieland
Ain't no dollars made, you will not get paid
Time of day, that's what I said and all that I could say
Huh, officer, officer, please, not today
Searchin' my nuts, I thought the cop was—
Now it's swipers and scammers
Shooters on credit, no price for the blammers
Run up, all you need is lights and some antlers
Playin' nights with the scramblers, on Rice with the handlers, low lights with the gamblers
And scandals that would've made Christ kick his sandals
And cyphers while manifestin' in sights of the vandals
Sadly, though, some niggas won't see the lights of these candles
You know what I live like
Gunshot, owner walk to the store, caught in a draw
One block over, orphan, it's war, I'm in fatigues
Young niggas tryna be high scorers, jump in the league
But they ain't fuckin' with me
New York, New York
New York, New York
New York, New York
Most of the venom's exposed in compliments and in jokes
I grew up with villains who learned how to live with they ghosts
You callin' sucker niggas the bro under pictures they post
Long as they fuck with the drip, long as they bitches stay close
And they cups full of sip, long as they hittin' they smoke
They'll zip you down when you pissed, zip you up when you broke
I'm scheming for what's needed as much as what's under the boat
Wherever it sail, we gon' make it work
It's not a scale, you can make it worth
Started on the yayo, now they lacin' Percs
I'm from where it don't take a second not to make the third
Do your homebase foul and they gon' make it first
These ain't 3D, these rhymes 5D
Wrap your wig back, rewind haji, my grind dodgy
Sippin' fine baji, in a state of mind that defies Ozzie
The block want my ID (New York)
I had the same attitude when they tried to sell me Karo and rabbit food
Lying is bad for you, shots flying, they stabbing through
Hot iron'll splatter you and scatter you, nigga (New York, New York)
My bitch puffin' my bush
Trip, nigga, buttons get pushed, something get smushed
These pussies be playing dirty until something get douched
Niggas want smoke 'til something get kushed
Make you merch, put your face on a pack
Yellow constructs, Yankee the cap, New York, nigga
New York, New York
New York, New York
New York, New York
New York, New York
New York, New York
New York, New York (Yeah)
Grimy niggas'll line you
