NYC Minute-Shootyz Groove

Bright lights, big city, concrete, 5 boroughs. Everything is real like you see it in the photo, We be the grand total, world capital future, Home of the paper schemes, ill natured, Building skyscrapers rollers and shakers, hungry money makers, Make you catch the vapors, everything is modern, expensive and flashy, Watch out for the devil, cause he roams the streets. I got a concrete lawn and a concrete yard. Roots hard as concrete you can't compete With this born winner who never been a loser, Brother from the boogie Who be biggin up and biggin up the buddha mindstate, Enter my city and you will find hate, Ignorance and greed and people walking Walking by brothers on the street bleeding. Still you might find everything you needed. Chorus Can't be too timid in a NYC minute NYC minute Everybody wants to live it, blood spilling, People killing in a nyc minute, No smiles, just grinning, that's how we living. Bright lights, big city, concrete, 5 boroughs. Everything is real like you see it in the photo, We be the grand total, world capital future, Home of the paper schemes, ill natured, Building skyscrapers rollers and shakers, hungry money makers, Make you catch the vapors, everything is modern, expensive and flashy, Watch out for the devil, cause he roams the streets. Now my momma and my poppa taught me mad realities, Plus the southern boulevard hospitalities, But back alleys is where i dilly dallied, casually, With things that cause fatalities. Amazingly I always seemed to keep my faculties. Others never had such luck got drugged got drunk Got tough got rough and got snuffed out. Too f**ked up or too slow to pull the gun out. Time it seems to run out quick For a lot of kids seem to turn To crime real quick and do a lot of bids. And every crew is out to make a hit, New York is the craziest. Chorus Can't be too timid in a NYC minute NYC minute Everybody wants to live it, blood spilling, People killing in a nyc minute, No smiles, just grinning, that's how we living.
