New York, I Love
Wake and bake
Safe to say
Class'll be real dope today
Virgil on my desk
Next to a few joints I rolled previously
Woke up at the crib on Morningside
Next to a cutie pie
Threw my favorite black Levis on
Olympic Jordans donned
Hallway had clouds
And the scent was really loud
Saw my handyman Dave
Who said, basement smelled like Wiz is in town
I just flashed him a smile
One that would light up an arenas electricity wild
Keyless feature sent my car growlin'
Passed the Grant Houses
Shot up St. Nich
My gears shift
Checkin' on my older brother, M
Had a new bottle of Henny white
That's light
Told me Rob, don't drink my whole shit
We both laughed
Mutual respect amongst Kings
Gave'm dap
Did the dash
Squad car passed
Felt like I was dirty
Damn, I was so clean
Took the major deeg
Hit home base
Bronx
Hit my bro, J
Que lo Que?
Dime a ver
Definitely a good day
City shows me love
I know somethings up above
And I thank them for the city of New York
For sure
9/11 made us stronger
Black outs should've lasted longer
And nutcrackers made the summer alright
No lie

Made my way out to the royal borough
BX/QB thorough
You would think we stuck up banks
Ave told me that if we were Heat
I'm Rob Pacino
Went over to see this girl in Jamaica
Hit the Kew Gardens cinema
Was way more into her
Had to leave
She left me with a frown
But I've been around
And I found
Very few people will hold you down
Through your madness
And your sadness
Had to make a delivery out to Shaolin
Torpedo by the Verrazano
Message hit my phone
Read, Rob-O, hit my line
Gotti, said, come thru the spot
Got some fire for you to try
Ha
Say no more, my guy
What could be better
Reminiscin' 'bout those times
Coogi sweater
Talkin' with Ariana on my grandmas landline
Makin' out with my first jewish girlfriend Tzipporah
Shoulda held her closer
Wiser as I grow older
Through the toughest
Never seen me fold up
City and I are twins
Never sleep
We definitely eat
No one could ever forget me
Once you felt me
Forever New York City
City shows me love
I know somethings up above
And I thank them for the city of New York
For sure
9/11 made us stronger
Black outs should've lasted longer
And nutcrackers made the summer alright
No lie

In the most beautiful city that I love
New York, New York, New York
In the most beautiful city that I love
New York, New York, New York
