Stay Alive in NYC lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, street life
Gutter sh*t, for real y'all
Soldier life n*gga, get it right
New York City
Where I'm from, live or die
Marcy, do what you do

[Verse 1]
Check it out now
Yo I'm here to put my thing down
Set up shot with cocaine now
Pick off n*ggas who ain't down
I'm in the game now
Brought a couple of cats from the way down
Who know how to slang thows
And grimmy n*ggas who aim wild
Who juss want to rep
And wet n*ggas who think foul
Ran into Jay while I'm clappin this math
This crab show me some slab
Now I'm tryna get back
We played the outskirts
n*gga smoother then my shirt
Spit a couple of words, a pound, then he merked
sh*t he left skid marks
I let the clip spark
When off in the hood
Played the bench till its dark
I'm confined to the drug game
A thin line between love and hate
Some n*ggas I love to hate
I thought my connect respect me
This n*gga got bad work and sent some haters wet me
[Chorus]
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you got to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you got to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you got to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you got to be a soldier

[Verse 2]
Check it
Yo, I'ma soldier to the heart
Through my bloodline
One way to catch a crab is always on his front time
I keep a chicken on a bench flippin'
Grippin', I smoke weed but this sh*t got a n*gga slippin'
A herb seed burn me, drop the L
Spot it through my peripheral
This n*gga tryna murder me
Shorty wop jumped in front of me
Caught one, blaze back empty empty the roots
Through the b*tch n*ggas, take that
n*ggas killed my down b*tch
Bust around b*tch
I don't know who clapped
So I don't hang around
sh*t, lame beat me on the ounce of raw
Dominican n*gga
Look, innocent n*gga
f*ck it I'ma finish this n*gga
Back the coop out the lot
c*ck one in the drop
Put the burner in the dash fee dipped in black
Got Bleek on alert
For the cat who beat me on the stack
[Chorus]
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you got to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you got to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you got to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you got to be a soldier

[Verse 3]
Yo, yo
Slow money, broke n*ggas, no weed
One gun, and my down b*tch gone
Got a n*gga on the run
Strip hot
n*ggas came through, bang shots
Have me sleeping in my wheels
To the real get got
Now I play the cut
On some n*gga what sh*t
Flip fo-in-dicals
For real now who wants it
Two blocks from the Jay's this n*gga lay
He pump trays
Tryna to get the Memph man put away
His next option
Pack up get out of dodge
When he caught I'ma let the fifth give his face a massage
Too much 'dro got my eyes low
On the creep triple black down
'Cause I'ma cripple that clown
Spotted him by WoodHall
n*ggas seen the V took off
Like he ran track or he played football
Hot day and everybody outside
I'ma catch him on that block
Where the hot whips ride
Ride slow this n*gga out burning trees
With a bad b*tch, I'ma put his brain on her sleeve
It's already c*cked
I move slow up the block
Jumped out, made him tongue kiss the Glock
I squeeze two, and n*ggas seen this n*gga drop
Code of the street, it's forever stay hot
Motherf*cker
[Chorus]
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you gots to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you gots to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you gots to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you gots to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you gots to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you gots to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you gots to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
To stay alive realize that you gots to be a soldier
To stay alive in New York City
