Karaoké Empire State of Mind Glee

Yeah I'm up at Brooklyn now I'm down in Tribeca

Right next to De Niro but I'll be hood forever

I'm the new Sinatra and since I made it here

I can make it anywhere yeah they love me everywhere

I used to cop in Harlem all of my Dominicans

Right there up on Broadway brought me back to that McDonald's

Took it to my stash spot five sixteen State street

Catch me in the kitchen like a Simmons whipping Pastry

Cruising down eighth street off white Lexus

Driving so slow but BK is from Texas

Me I'm up at Bed Study home of that boy Biggie

Now I live on billboard and I brought my boys with me

Say what up to Ty Ty still sipping Mai-tai

Sitting court side Knicks and Nets give me high fives

Nigga I be Spiked out

I can trip a referee

Tell by my attitude that I most definitely from

From, hey uh, uh, yeah

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh

New

Come on

You're welcome, OG

I made you hot nigga

Catch me at the X with OG at a Yankee game

Shit I made the Yankee hat more famous than a yankee can

You should know I bleed blue but I ain't a crip tho

But I got a gang of niggas walking with my clique though

Welcome to the melting pot corners where we selling rocks

Afrika bambaataa home of the hip hop

Yellow cap, gypsy cap dollar cab, holla back

For foreigners it ain't for they act like they forgot how to act

Eight million stories out there and their naked

Cities is a pity half of y'all won't make it

Me I gotta plug Special Ed

I got it made

If Jeezy's paying LeBron

I'm paying Dwayne Wade

Three dice Cee-Lo three card Monte

Labor day parade rest in peace Bob Marley

Statue of Liberty long live the World trade

Long live the king yo, I'm from the Empire State that's

Hey

They're part to

Welcome to the bright lights baby

Lights is blinding girls need blinders

So they can step out of bounds

Quick the side lines is

Blind with casualties who sipping life casually then gradually become worse

Don't bite the apple, Eve

Caught up in the in crowd now your in-style and in the winter gets cold

En vogue with your skin out

The city of sin is a pity on a whim

Good girls gone bad

The cities filled with them

Mami took a bus trip now she got her bust out

Everybody ride her

Just like a bus route

Hail Mary to the city your a virgin and Jesus can save you

Life starts when church starts

Came here for school graduated to the high life

Ball players, rap stars

Addicted to the limelight

MDMA got you feeling like a champion

The city never sleeps

Better slip you a Ambient
