Lyric Central Aire (The City)
The City will eat you up if you stop thinking for just one minute.
Its pretty if you look up, but brother don t get lost in it.
The heat is slowing your mission, clouding your ambition, bringing you down.
You re in the streets and your wishin for an air-conditioned apartment uptown.
Everybody s scared to talk to one another and if I did… what would I say?
Be like “hey baby, baby, can I give you a call? I can t believe how late this train is!” or “isn t it a dreadful day?”
What can I say? It s like, one more day in this city is gonna make me mean.
I got crushes on girls that I ve never seen.
One more day in the city. One more day is gonna drive me crazy.
My brakes are broke. My life s a joke. The seats kinda sticky were I spilt my coke.
I don t drive it a lot, (well, do you blame me or not?)
Roll down the window man it s too damn hot!
The plush seats release dust when you sit down.
It was worse when it was brown but now it s green.
Green like a toad, it 0hugs the road like an ex-girlfriend…
barely touching with a tense distance. You know what I m saying?
You know, one more day in this city one more day is gonna drive me crazy.
Wherever you re at, wherever you are, you can t go far without the N and the R.
I said wherever you re at, wherever you are, you can t go far without the N and the R.
