Heart of the City

Lyrics

[Verse 1] In the city can you hear the heart beating fast Where a young man pulls his heat and blasts Different cliques Rival competing clash They rather take the street than a seat in class Drugs, wars, thugs, whores Poor people sleeping on rugs, floors Drive by shootings, slugs soar They hit another crib but it plugs yours No hope, snow, dope is what they slang but hang by they own rope Spending jail time how you gon' cope It's emotional in the heart when alone Scope out the city [Verse 2] In the city can you see the heart bleeding heavy Out of towners'll come they not even ready Bums pushing on carts sleeves are sweaty Just listen close and hear it breathing heavy Narcos, parks strolls, beware of the alleys and dark roads They say the night can turn the heart cold Where the lost souls isn't taught and aren't told Gamble spots, ammo shots Bang bang in the club [?] Feel the heat in the street the way a candle's hot Shorties look up to dealers that handle knots In the city [Verse 3] In the city can you feel the heart when it thumps See everything is cool then it jumps [?] The life that gets pockets feeling looted Evil hides inside a [?] You can get grilled, killed, or muted Court cases, abort places, dealers know fiends [?] They gotta have it they gotta support [?] Selling things from rings to [?] I swear it's feeling like a heart attack From the blocks and the streets to where the parks is at In the city
