New York ^!$$%z, universal, unique
And ain't nuttin sweet in these streets, we gotta eat
New York ^!$$%z, every borough is thorough

Makin moves today, and then tomorrow

I slay my prey, with exellence, eloquence, and reverance

You can't compete, so I suggest you lamp
or meet defeat at the feet of my elite fleet
I mistreat these beats like hoes and put em in the street

Like seven hoodlums in a Jeep I creep up on ya
Brook-? to California, I embalm phony performers
Cause the actors like Leonardo, DiCaprio

Don't make me wanna put down this mic, walk up, slap you yo
and tap you yo, and take you out of your misery
Don't ever front the role for these (*##$es, thinkin you dissin me


New York ^!$$%z, universal, unique
And ain't nuttin sweet in these streets, we gotta eat

New York ^!$$%z, every borough is thorough
Makin moves today, and once again son, tomorrow
New York ^!$$%z, universal, unique

And ain't nuttin sweet in these streets, we gotta eat
New York ^!$$%z, goin out for the loot
And most won't hesitate to @@#! and shoot


Yo, yo, I cut deeper, you're much weaker, I crush speakers
See nuff heaters here in New Yitty

That's where it's grimy and gritty, word to Frank Nitty
Got strippers showin their !@%$, bourgeoise hoes actin saditty
And every spot got it's own ghetto

Liquor stores on all the corners, plus drugs guns with ammo
No example set, for thugs in the projects
Only examples they get, is how to unload the tec

Out for respect, props and dough to collect
The root of it all yo, is you need loot to ball yo
If my back's against the wall yo, I'ma bang you til you fall you

Slang slash a buck fifty ^!$$%z is shifty
Gonna have to send more of your goons out to get me
How could you compare this here, with that weak %#@! there

Word to my man Sincere, we'll make you travel in fear
Like apparations I appear and disappear
New York in the house, so suckers play the $#&@in rear


New York ^!$$%z, universal, unique
And ain't nuttin sweet in these streets, we gotta eat

New York ^!$$%z, every borough is thorough
Makin moves today, and once again son, tomorrow


Pay attention, or get placed on suspension
Situation's you gonna face, beyond your comprehension
You'll be like, "Why is all these ^!$$%z after me?"

Way up %#@!'s creek, that's where your $$# will be
Actually, you brought the %#@! all on yourself
Now ^!$$%z is schemin, all on your wealth

Future health is in danger, simply cause of anger
Got ^!$$%z lookin to hang ya, or straight rearrange ya
You better hold your head, you better hide your bread

Cause these ^!$$%z ain't playin, they're leavin all victims dead
They labelled you as their next target
See, you was frontin, actin like you was the hardest

Regardless, you know them ^!$$%z is hungry yo
And ain't %#@! funny yo, they want respect and money yo


New York ^!$$%z, universal, unique
And ain't nuttin sweet in these streets, we gotta eat
New York ^!$$%z, every borough is thorough

Makin moves today, and then tomorrow, tomorrow

That's right, Brook-? to California
New York City in the house
Peace to Sway and Tech

and all my cats in the system
You catch much respect
Hold your head
New York baby
