This City Lyrics - Lupe Fiasco

This city is my city 

And I love it, yeah I love it 

I was born and raised here 

I got it made here 

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay 

From every corner 

To every block yeah 

And whether it's warm or storming or down right stupid hot, hot 

From the problems all the way to the solutions yeah 

Forget all the drugs and gangs, corruption and pollution no

Cause this city is my city

Now what if I told you my city was the best 

And my city was a threat to the rest 

But you can't rest inside my city 

My city's so cold if you ain't dressed 

And what they accept, better had a right address 

Come to my city, certain colors can't step 

And sadly I'm talking about the color of your skin 

Sorry my brother can't let you in 

Cause the property value might go down to a level that's 

Economically unacceptable and socially taboo fast to live around you 

Uh, uh, is this what it's down to? 

Roof for the same team, ngga had the same dream 

Not the same reality 

Actually, mines is a bad education and gentrification 

Despite all the above I love... 

This city is my city 

And I love it, yeah I love it 

I was born and raised here 

I got it made here 

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay here 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

And you can take it back 

Picture, you can take it back 

But you're never gonna take my city away 

Cause you can burn it to the ground 

Oh or let it flood, but it's in my blood 

Cause this city is my city 

And I love it, yeah I love it 

I was born and raised here 

I got it made here 

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay here 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life, uh huh 

For life...
