In the big apple, scars embedded tattoos Ghetto love, protection from coming at you Keeping our heads up, maintaining self And on the Harlem Nights scene
We used to party all We used to hang out all night it was all right Hoping we all might it through what it takes to do to keep it true
I like to reminisce about night we kissed It was somewhere in The nights were hot and bright, you could treat your honey 'Coz would burn all night, yeah
Remember the times we struggled and still on Remember the in Harlem Remember the when we would dance all night long the nights in Harlem

Remember the we struggled and still held on Remember the in Harlem Remember the times when we would dance all long Remember the nights in
Remember the times we and still held on Remember the in Harlem the times when we would dance all night long Remember the nights in
Remember the times we struggled and held on Remember the times when we would all night long
