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, water towers, trees,
Writers, prize fighters and Wall traders
We come on the subway cars
Diversity unified, you are
We're doing on the One and Nine line
On the L doin' swell
On the number Ten bus we fight and
You know we're thorough in the 'cause that's a must
I remember when the Duece was all porno
Running after school to play PIX
At lunch I'd go to Blimpies on Montague Street
And hit the Fulton Mall for the sneakers on my feet
Dear New York I hope you're well
I a lot's happened and you've been through hell
So, we give thanks for a home
Through your gates at Ellis Island we in droves

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

The L.I.E. the B.Q.E
Hippies at the band shell the L.S.D.
Get my BVDs VIM
You know I'm reppin' the best I can
Stopped off at Bleeker Bob's, got out
Sneakin' in at four am after out
You rob me in the park at Dianna Ross
But everybody started looting when the light off
From the South South Bronx on out to Queens
From Hollis Queens down to Bay Ridge
Castle Hill to the Lower East Side
From ten-ten WINS to At Five
Dear New York, this is a love
To you and how you us together
We can't say about all you do
'Cause in the we're ourselves and electric too

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

Shout out the South Bronx where my mom hails
Right next to Bridge across from Harlem
To the Grand Concourse my mom and dad met
Before moved on down to the Upper West
I see you're still after all that's gone on
Lifelong, we dedicate song
Just a little something to show some
To the city that and mends and tests
Since 9-11 still livin'
And lovin' life been given
Ain't gonna take that away from us
We lookin' 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
Home to the many, rejecting
Accepting peoples of all places, they're from

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

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