N.Y.C | |
I was hanging out on Joy's front steps | |
It was the summer of love | |
We were in New York City | |
Vibe was cool with the radio on | |
I think it was Sly singing | |
"Que Sera Sera" | |
My mother kept saying you're wastin' your life | |
Sittin' here watching the world go by | |
Why don't you guys get out there and do something | |
We did, we became brothers that night | |
Sharing our lives over a bottle of Ide's | |
But that was fine with me | |
There was some kind of riot on the lower | |
East Side | |
Some rich man shot some homeless guy | |
He thought he was being robbed | |
(chorus) | |
You can hear him say… | |
Can you believe this city | |
Didn't get much sleep staying out all night | |
Soul kitchen was hoppin' | |
We'd sneak in the side and dance | |
Smash was spinnin' some whack new song | |
We was all snappin' hard on his moms | |
But he was cool | |
That shit was funky | |
That shit was funky | |
Teachers were quittin' their jobs by the ton | |
Every kid in the school was totin' a gun | |
And they were just too scared | |
You can hear them say… | |
Can you believe this city | |
Ran into C on the E train | |
Had a brand new copy of Marvin Gaye's | |
"Trouble Man" I couldn't help thinkin' coming home that day | |
Is it New York City or back to L.A. |
