This City

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.

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 downright 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

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

From every highrise

Down to every slum

From every unethical politician to the wise old beat up bum

My city and I our hearts beat, beat, beat together

When I'm home we both breathe, breathe, breathe together

This place is my home, wherever I go, I, I, I, I take it with me

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

You can take my picture,

You can take my name,

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...
