"what'd you do last "

Big, big, you know some block letters

[mos
The new rode high in the crown of the metropolis
Shinin, who on top of this?
People was tusslin, arguin and
Gangstaz of gotham hustlin
I'm with words and ideas
My is picky, seekin what will transmit
The scribes can to transcript, yo
This ain't no where the usual is suitable
Tonight alive, describe the inscrutable
The indisputable, we new the narcotic
in metal and fiber optics
Where is paid to trade hot stock tips
For profits, thirsty criminals pockets
Hard knuckles on the second hands of class watches
Skyscrapers is collosus, the cost of
Is preposterous, alive, you play or die, no options
No and robin, can't tell between
The cops and the robbers, both partners, they all heartless
With no conscience, streets stay darkened
Where hearts stay hardened
My eagle talons stay sharpened, like lights stay throbbin
You either make a way or stay sobbin, the shiny
Is bruised but and if you choose to eat
You could lose your teeth, many crews
Nightly news repeat, who got down and locked down
Spotlight to savages, nasdaq
My narrative, rose to this existance
Amidst the lights which remain in the distance

So much on my that I can't recline
holes in the night til she bled sunshine
Breathe in, vapors from bright stars that shine
Breathe out, smoke retrace the skyline
Heard the bass ride out like an mating call
I can't take it y'all, I can feel the breathin
Chest heavin, the flesh of the evening
Sigh before we die like the last train

kweli]
Breathin in deep city breaths, sittin on shitty
We stoop to new lows, hell froze the night the city
The beast through concrete jungles
Communicatin one another
And birds where waters fall
the hydrants to the gutters
The beast walk the beats, but the beats we be
You on the side of the track, lookin visibly shaken
Taken them plungers, plungin to death that's by the numbers
With crime unapplied pressure, cats is god
But havin children by a baby mother but fuck it
We played each other like puppets, swearin you got pull
When the only you got is the wool over your eyes
Gettin knowledge in jail a blessing in disguise
Look in the skies for god, what you see the smog
Is dreams flying away on the wings of the obscene
Thoughts that put in the air
Places where you could get over a glare
But is fair
a paradox we call reality
So keepin it real will you casualty of abnormal normality
Killers born like, mickey and mallory
Not knowing the get you capped like an nba salary
Some cats be emceeing to illustrate we be seeing
Hard to be a being when shit is shakin what you believe in
For to grow in brooklyn, seeds need to be planted
I'm asking if feel me and the crowd left me stranded
My pressure boiled and rose, cause new york niggaz
Actin spoiled at shows, to the winners the go
I take the l, transfer to the 2, head to the
New york life type the roman empire state

[mos def and
So much on my mind I just can't
Blastin holes in the night til she bled
Breathe in, inhale vapors from bright stars shine
Breathe out, weed smoke retrace the
Yo don't the bass ride out like an mating call
I can't take it y'all, I can feel the city
Chest heavin, against the of the evening
Sigh before we die like the last leaving

[spanish woman] escuchela.. respirando ? ?

Yo...on the amen, corner I stood at my former hood
the spirit in the wind, knew my friend was gone for good
Threw dirt on the casket, the hurt, I mask it
Mixin emotions, struggle I hadn't mastered
I coreograph steps to heaven
And hell, waiting to exhale and the bread leavened
Veteran of a cold war it's for
What I know or, what's
So days I take the bus home, just to touch home
the crib I spend months gone
Sat by the window with a clutched dome listenin to shorties long
Young girls with weak minds, but butt strong
Tried to call, or at least beep the lord, but didn't a touch-tone
a dog-eat-dog world, you gotta mush on
Some of land I must own
Outta the city, they want us
Tearin down the creatin plush homes
My circumstance is between cabrini and love
by hate, yet I love home
Ask my God how he thought travellin the sound
Found it hard to imagine he been past downtown
It's deep, I heard the city breathe in it's
Of reality I touch, but for me it's hard to
Deep, I my man breathe in his sleep
Of I touch, but for me it's hard to keep

def and crew]
So much on my mind I just recline
Blastin in the night til she bled sunshine
Breathe in, inhale from bright stars that shine
Breathe out, smoke retrace the skyline
Yo how the bass ride out like an ancient mating
I can't take it y'all, I can feel the city
Chest heavin, against the flesh of the
the ide's goodbye, I'm on the last train leaving
