kamos - the city lyrics

[verse 1]
up late thinking how i’m grateful i am
but wanting more so my kids kids kids got grands
work days eyeing the clock but its 2+am
and i’m writing trynna get out the jam
can’t be week punch ins they hurt like tyson
my days gone and the weekends flying
respect those whose different than i am
but where i’m lying it really don’t sit with me
my life was the same as most in my city
broken family whether from money or secrecy
i came from both and we moved frequently
no change in that sense the gangs influence me
bronx or staten both boroughs i strapped in
cause our mindsets are built off sh+t that already happen
8 years old when i seen my first body
so i can’t lack when n+ggas get beside me

[hook]
up
and i up
and i up
and i up
and i up
and i up
and i up
and i up
uptown to downtown in my city
too hot too calm down in my city
ain’t no love in my part of the city
ain’t no love in my part of the city

[verse 2]
i would pray for days just to make it home safe
when the towers fell i knew the whole city need faith
imagine a kid seeing what’s real everyday
it’s hard to imagine that you see a better way
i knew better and had to move better
seen many of my nikkas lose to there endeavors
the block and paper turn to burials and letters
shoutout to my n+ggas trynna getting sh+t together
i been close 2 it but too wise to commit
if my dad didn’t come home i would’ve been in that sh+t
he showed me the truth when that n+gga went legit
no reason to flip i already seen the risk
but still i wanna see more 100 thou don’t excite me
i’m still in the hood and i got a property
300 or more to escape poverty
can’t just store raps gotta feed the economy
[hook]
up
and i up
and i up
and i up
and i up
and i up
and i up
and i up
uptown to downtown in my city
too hot too calm down in my city
ain’t no love in my part of the city
ain’t no love in my part of the city
