Gotham (Ox City)

Lyrics

Ah, you think darkness is your ally
 But you're merely adapted to dark
 I was born in it, molded by it
 I didn't see the light until I was already a man
 By then it was nothing to me but blinding
 You are now tuned in to the adventures of Vast Man and Goblin
 We stay in shape like Porsches on blocks
 Where women's gorgeous and kids stay strapped like Bugs Bunny Jordans
 It's crazed, all streets where eyes is forever glazed
 Like lady lemon cakes? in an age is a phase? everything trying to get paid
 I miss some of my friends one time I'm a see at the end, at some point
 Can't hold on to every bit of [?]
 Trying to get over forbidden-ness (or bitterness) like ban hands
 So raise em up to the roof, even though some are roofless
 Everything ain't sweet, tell that to those that's living toothless
 I'm a always be with my fam, like boys chasing cute girls
 And stay straight through the swirls
 Knowing everything ain't diamonds and pearls
 Keep it up, that's positive, patience is a virtue
 Don't let anything that irritates hurt you
 Cause we ain't gonna lose our top
 Even when, struggling at the bottom, Gotham
 Yo I got you, like yo I got em, Gotham
 Got you, got you
 This is our city, New York Gritty
 Gotham, I got em, Ox city
 Right in the face of death, I show no pity
 That's why all of my exs still love me
 Wifey was Diane, mistress was Selena
 Love that Amazon, but the Kruger was meaner
 (Huh) plus I love to demean her
 I be in Mecca, she stayed in Medina
 Cipher unknown, we red hot
 With two cops on roof tops that's dead shots
 The Duo dynamic is call,
 Once we move these packs to D.C. we're goin ball
 We running this city as far as the eyes can see
 The shadows betray you cause they belong me
 Illogicality, deception ain't it?
 The reality is we all initiated
 Into the league of shadows
 I told Raven to keep her eye on the sparrow
 Iron Galaxy clique
 Clayface will shape-shift and you can get a face lift
 With a box cutter, that's mad cows son
 (Hell) you know I'm a ox-cutter
 Because Ox is so gutter
 From 125 all the way to Sutta
 Knowing everything ain't diamonds and pearls
 Keep it up, that's positive, patience is a virtue
 Don't let anything that irritates hurt you
 Cause we ain't gonna lose our top
 Even when, struggling at the bottom, Gotham
 Yo I got you, like yo I got em, Gotham
 Got you, got you
