You, were the best nights of my life
You, got the light that always shines
I miss the way you that move and the way i get high
When you take me to your heights
Like i'm standing in the sky
I see your subway cars, and your old grafitti,
i breathe your air when i land in another city.
I'll be that one that's got you
printed on my bones, yeah you're all i know
Everywhere i go
I ain't changed at all
Always on my road,
I'm still New York, yeah the only home that i'll ever know
My concrete walls
I'm still New York. I'm still New York
I wanna drive down riverside.
See the birds flying on the high line
Where the sidewalks burn
And we pray for rain in july
I want the Yankees 99
And the Knicks on a sold out night.
Where the curtains close, and the Broadway streets are alive.
I need your heartbeat close don't you ever leave me.
And i breathe your air when i land in another city.
And i'll be that one that's got you printed on my bones
Yeah you're all i know
Everywhere i go
I ain't changed at all
Always on my road,
I'm still New York, yeah the only home that i'll ever know
My concrete walls
I'm still New York. I'm still New York.
BK born and raises i was god sent
I used to hit the courts out in Prospect
Talking long walks on my time spent
Just a kid whit that Empire State of mind set
Keep flipping off a blind deck
Dipping from the New York citiest finest
Said I've been up on my New York shit
Walking down the block with my New York bitch
I could never leave my city
Ain't nothing like it
Even if i do though
I could never hide it
Top down on the West side when i'm driving
East side be the only side that i'm riding
I'm still New York
I'm still New York
I'm still New York
I'm still New York
Everywhere i go
I ain't changed at all
Always on my road,
I'm still New York, yeah the only home that i'll ever know
My concrete walls
