I don't know why I'm here
Or where I am going anymore
Mama tried to save me from the street war
But now I'm thinking I need to save her
But I gotta get this paper
By any means necessary
In a city that never sleeps
Sometimes it gets harder to dream
Opportunities has ceased
Gotta take what you need, yeah
(oh)
Walk like u got a purpose
(yo)
I can't let 'em see me nervous
(oh)
But this right here is the coldest town
(you)
You can't let it bring you down
125th street is just another number
Don't sleep and slumber
A jungle but I'm ready to rumble
My 3rd eye go close for anyone
I, I am coming for what's mine
Oh
Walk like you've got a purpose
(yo)
I can't let 'em see me nervous
(oh)
But this right here is the coldest town
(you)
You can't let it bring you down
