The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

So they’re cheering for me now

In the streets, hear them cheering for me now

Right up Broadway, they’re cheering for me now

And one day, all the enemies I’ve made might hold their own parade

But not today

I came here with nothing

Like hundreds before me

And millions behind me

You know you can find me in New York

Where everyone’s different

But share the same island

Polluted and loud

But you’re safe in the crowd

Here in New York

Today it’s my city

Tomorrow, who knows?

Today we’re a country

Let’s see how that goes

Upstate doesn’t trust us

They’re safe in their sameness

They’re scared of what’s strange

But each corner means change

Here in New York

Where else can you wander

And hear every language

We fight like a marriage

Then share the same carriage

We suffer the weather

We bind and we tether

This nation together

I’m just getting started

And time’s of the essence

I can’t say I’ve made it

But I’d never trade it

They’ve thrown a parade

Ha!

In my New York

Cheering for me now

Can you hear them cheering for me now?
