[00:00.00]Yo, Preem, play me that Billy Joel joint
[00:03.50]Some folks like to get away
[00:05.40]Take a holiday from the neighborhood
[00:08.40]Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood
[00:12.90]
[00:13.80]But I'm taking a Greyhound
[00:16.90]
[00:17.30]On the Hudson River line
[00:19.10]
[00:21.40]I'm in a New York state of mind
[00:25.10]
[00:26.10]Steel toe, construct walk, Nike shorts at night at court
[00:29.10]Stress'll cut your life short, I'm from egg rolls and duck sauce
[00:32.00]Where the feds rolled on Dutch Schultz, City Island, and Sei Less
[00:35.50]Plenty talent, the kids stay blessed, gamble and make bets
[00:38.40]Throw on some DMX, his words, they live in all of us
[00:41.50]Some get deportеd, some die young, but it's all a rush
[00:44.40]On part two, I left you with two of my friеnds
[00:46.80]And now our goals is that our sons don't end in juvenile pens
[00:49.60]Rikers should be closed, MDC to Beacon
[00:52.20]Wear ice if you real, or they'll rob you and pawn your piece in
[00:55.10]If you was locked down for a while, it's a different place now
[00:58.10]They buildin' hotels where it once was a Devil's playground
[01:00.90]Michelin star's cool, but the streets is cookin' that beef stew
[01:04.00]That chopped cheese too, screwface how we smile
[01:07.10]They want us gone, but that's fine
[01:09.00]'Cause we really outside, for now and all time
[01:11.40]That New York state of mind
[01:13.50]Some folks like to get away (Part three, three times for NYC)
[01:16.00]Take a holiday from the neighborhood
[01:18.90]Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood (What a city)
[01:25.00]But I'm taking a Greyhound
[01:27.40]On the Hudson River line
[01:30.60]
[01:31.80]I'm in a New York state of mind (The world)
[01:35.30]
[01:35.80]And we got fit, jumpin' up
[01:37.60]Hittin' pull-ups and dips on scaffoldings
[01:39.80]Potholes still be hard in our whips
[01:41.70]Never ending night life, supermodels, events, some art galleries
[01:45.80]I can name some clubs that no longer exist
[01:48.00]The Limelight, the Tunnel, and the Palladium
[01:50.80]All night, we stayed in them fly
[01:52.80]Wave in the sky if you was made in N.Y
[01:54.90]And wouldn't trade it to the day that you die
[01:57.00]The most hated and I think we know why, now
[01:59.40]Rappers we know as legends drift and float to Heaven
[02:02.60]Some are living in present- day, I miss '87
[02:05.30]In Queens, was a teen...........
