Luyện nghe bài hát An Open Letter To NYC

Brooklyn, Bronx, and Staten
the Battery to the top of Manhattan
Asian, Middle-Eastern and
Black, White, New you make it happen

Brownstones, towers, trees, skyscrapers
Writers, prize fighters and Street traders
We come together on the subway
unified, whoever you are
We're doing fine on the One and line
On the L we're swell
On the Ten bus we fight and fuss
You know we're thorough in the boroughs that's a must
I remember when the Duece was all porno
Running home after school to PIX
At lunch I'd go to Blimpies down on Street
And hit the Fulton Mall for the sneakers on my feet
Dear New York I hope you're well
I know a lot's happened and you've through hell
So, we give for providing a home
Through your at Ellis Island we passed in droves

Brooklyn, Bronx, and Staten
the Battery to the top of Manhattan
Asian, Middle-Eastern and
Black, White, New York you it happen

The L.I.E. the B.Q.E
Hippies at the band with the L.S.D.
Get my BVDs VIM
You I'm reppin' Manhattan the best I can
Stopped off at Bob's, got thrown out
in at four am after going out
You rob me in the park at Dianna Ross
But everybody started when the light went off
the South South Bronx on out to Queens Bridge
From Hollis Queens right down to Bay
From Castle Hill to the Lower Side
From ten-ten WINS to Live At
Dear New York, this is a letter
To you and how you brought us
We say enough about all you do
'Cause in the city ourselves and electric too

Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and
From the to the top of Manhattan
Asian, Middle-Eastern and
Black, White, New York you make it

Shout out the South where my mom hails from
Right next to High Bridge across from
To the Grand Concourse my mom and dad met
Before they moved on down to the West
I see you're still strong all that's gone on
Lifelong, we this song
Just a little something to show respect
To the city blends and mends and tests
Since 9-11 we're livin'
And lovin' life we've been
Ain't nothing gonna take that from us
We pretty and gritty 'cause in the city we trust
New York I know a lot has changed
Two towers down but you're in the game
to the many, rejecting no-one
Accepting peoples of all places, wherever they're

Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and
From the to the top of Manhattan
Asian, and Latin
Black, White, New York you it happen

Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and
the Battery to the top of Manhattan
Asian, Middle-Eastern and
Black, White, New York, we make it
