Lyrics
(Intro)
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
It's the concrete jungle where dreams are made,
New York City, the city that never sleeps,
We out here, let's go!
(Verse 1)
Welcome to the land of skyscrapers, city lights shine,
From Brooklyn to the Bronx, we on that New York grind.
Subway serenades, street performers at night,
Graffiti on the walls, a canvas of the fight.
Brooklyn Bridge to Central Park, the hustle never ends,
Dodge cabs and jaywalk, we don’t follow trends.
Harlem’s heart beats with jazz, soul in the air,
Apollo’s stage where legends declare.
Queens, the melting pot, cultures collide,
Flavors of the world in every borough, side by side.
Chinatown's lanterns glow, Little Italy’s feast,
Street vendors, Times Square, the Big Apple's heartbeat.
We got Wall Street’s wolves and Broadway’s lights,
Yankee Stadium nights, and Knicks game fights.
It’s a city of dreams, where legends arise,
From the gutter to the stars, reaching for the skies.
(Chorus)
New York City, Empire State of Rhymes,
Where the skyline kisses the clouds, we grind.
From dawn 'til dusk, we never back down,
In the city of dreams, we wear the crown.
(Verse 2)
Bright lights, big city, we shine like gold,
Stories of the streets, both young and old.
From Queensbridge tales to Brooklyn’s beats,
Rap battles in the park, spitting heat on the streets.
Flatbush Avenue to the Lower East Side,
Boombox blaring, hip hop's our guide.
We rise from the struggle, built from the pain,
Weathered the storm, danced in the rain.
Nightclubs poppin', DJs spin the tracks,
B-boys breakdancing, graffiti on the plaques.
New York Minute, everything can change,
From rags to riches, it’s never strange.
Concrete dreams, reality's embrace,
Million stories told in every single space.
From the high-rise living to the project homes,
We’re the heartbeat of a city, in our blood it roams.
(Chorus)
New York City, Empire State of Rhymes,
Where the skyline kisses the clouds, we grind.
From dawn 'til dusk, we never back down,
In the city of dreams, we wear the crown.
(Bridge)
Uptown, downtown, east side, west,
Each block’s a legend, we’re New York’s best.
Through the hardships and the grind, we stand tall,
In the city of legends, we’ve seen it all.
(Verse 3)
Fashion Week flair, Fifth Avenue stride,
We walk with a swagger, city full of pride.
Hip hop's birthplace, we set the stage,
From Sugarhill Gang to Nas’s rage.
Brooklyn Nets to the Giants roar,
Statue of Liberty, we open the door.
Immigrants' dreams, Ellis Island past,
Freedom’s torch, a hope to last.
Coney Island summers, hot dogs and rides,
City Island seafood, Staten Island tides.
We got bodegas on the corner, 24/7,
A slice of heaven, 2AM sessions.
Empire State Building, high above the rest,
Ground Zero’s tribute, we passed the test.
We rise from the ashes, stronger every day,
In New York City, we pave our own way.
(Chorus)
New York City, Empire State of Rhymes,
Where the skyline kisses the clouds, we grind.
From dawn 'til dusk, we never back down,
In the city of dreams, we wear the crown.
(Outro)
So here’s to the city that never sleeps,
Where history’s made and destiny meets.
From the boroughs to the lights, we’re all a part,
New York City, forever in my heart.
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
New York, baby, Empire State of Rhymes.
We out.
