Breukelen "Brooklyn" (feat. Smif-N-Wessun)

The sound of Brooklyn
 We gets down in Brooklyn
 We move around in Brooklyn
 The town is Brooklyn
 Bed-Stuy, Flatbush, Brownsville, Crown Heights
 Where the music feels good and it sounds right (yeah)
 Summertime, music in the park
 We can do this in the dark, we don't even need no streetlights
 We bright, look how we all shine (Look)
 We all tryna live so we all grind (Grind)
 And then we started saying, "Crooklyn"
 Had everybody thinking it was all crime (Stick 'em up)
 Shout it out to Spike Lee
 And the dude on the corner in the white tee
 And the girl off the block with the attitude
 Had to write a song, show my gratitude (Welcome)
 Welcome to my city, man
 To the streets where the late, great Biggie ran
 And damn near everyone's a Biggie fan
 That's 'cause we support our own
 The sound of Brooklyn
 We gets down in Brooklyn
 We move around in Brooklyn
 (B-R-double-O-K-L-Y-N, B-R-double-O-K-L-Y-N)
 The town is Brooklyn
 (B-R-double-O-K-L-Y-N, B-R-double-O-K)
 Big Daddy Kane is synonymous, Jay-Z's synonymous
 Sean P's synonymous, I'm just tryna honor this
 Place that we call home, Brook-Nam, look I'm
 Really just tryna make you proud like, "Look, mom"
 I'm tryna make you smile like, "Look, dad
 Got the Nets on the fitted and the bookbag" (Nice)
 And you know the Timbs clean
 On these bars, we go in like a swim team (Say what?)
 Brooklyn be the pedigree
 If you find something wild, man, set it free (Set it free)
 Set it free and watch it go
 Then give it to the world and watch it grow ('Cause you know)
 'Cause you know we everywhere
 Disrespect my home, you will never dare (Never)
 'Cause you get mushed quick
 Coney Island, Red Hook, Fort Greene, Bushwick
 The sound of Brooklyn
 We gets down in Brooklyn
 We move around in Brooklyn
 (B-R-double-O-K-L-Y-N, B-R-double-O-K-L-Y-N)
 The town is Brooklyn
 (B-R-double-O-K-L-Y-N, B-R-double-O-K)
 Marco, you made it here, Gang Starr, y'all made it here
 Even though y'all wasn't born here, still y'all made it here
 And now it's like you one of us
 And we all tied together like some braided hair (Yeah)
 Dumbo to Clinton Hills
 Gentrified and the tension builds (Build)
 But we find a way to live together
 Wish we could find a way to live forever (Forever)
 Either way, the music will (Tell me)
 What I gotta do to prove it's real? (Tell me)
 What I gotta do to make it clear?
 You can make it anywhere if you can make it here
 Lil' Kim's synonymous
 Foxy, Fabolous, Maino's synonymous (Say what?)
 In a world full of promises
 Smif-N-Wessun, Bucktown, what I'm tryna honor is Brooklyn
 The sound of Brooklyn
 We gets down in Brooklyn
 We move around in Brooklyn
 (B-R-double-O-K-L-Y-N, B-R-double-O-K-L-Y-N)
 The town is Brooklyn
 (B-R-double-O-K-L-Y-N, B-R-double-O-K)
