WORD TO MY MOTHER

ALWAYS ON GO

[Intro]
Uh-huh
Hoo, Hoo, Hoo

[Hook]
They call us New Yorkers
Remember the days when we had our way
And them utz used to cost us a quarter
Back when the newspaper was our crusader
Taught us to keep moving smarter
And showed us to keep working harder
We may be crazy, but bitch we ain't lazy
We get to the money, and fuckin' it all up
This why they call us New Yorkers

[Verse]
Reminiscing about
Walking to school
Where the number one rule
Is to make it there safe
But you come home with doubts
We had to figure it out
So we could find us a way out
Out of the trenches
And stop them from killing and phasing us out
I see where you coming from now
Thank you for hearing me out
It's back to basics
A place with familiar faces
A place where it's plenty of haters
A place where you deal with street racers
And racists that shouldn't be cops
Oh this is fucking amazing
A place where you beef witcho opps
And it's too late to stop
It's only god who could save us
A place where the mom and pops
Turn into coffee shops
Guess this what it means when

[Hook]
They call us New Yorkers
Remember the days when we had our way
And them utz used to cost us a quarter
Back when the newspaper was our crusader
Taught us to keep moving smarter
And showed us to keep working harder
We may be crazy, but bitch we ain't lazy
We get to the money, and fuckin' it all up
This why they call us New Yorkers

[Outro]
Hehehe
Aye, aye, aye
This why they call us New Yorkers
This why they call us New Yorkers
