Escape from New York

Escape from New York, escape from New York

Escape from New York, escape from New York

Escape from New York, escape from New York

Escape from New York, escape from New York

A twenty-one gun salute ain't nearly enough

For some old shit this rough

D-Dawg, baby paw, watch this prediction

As we escape from New York, we'll see a whole lot of fiction

Drug dealers wanna be rappers, and rappers frontin drugs

Big Williness is silliness if you still live at home

You be tyin' up the lotto, mom, dudes holla for

Tell your gentlemen I'm here, the Great X has gone no-no

Shotgun partner D-Dawg, bring that thing PR

So we can swing PR, together us three we are

Tryin to keep pace in the great rap race

New York's a crazy place, my girl just caught a case

If you wanna feel the pleasure Prince is provin it's on

My hair is now on a little higher than a baldy

Came to lace up the wax with Pete and D-Dawg Poire

From the Vernon to New Rochelle, or the Rolling Cliffs of Dover

It ain't over 'til it's over, it ain't over 'til it's over

Listen up son, niggas wanna talk the talk

But can you walk the walk? New York, New York

For the thugs and players, money, sex and rhyme sayers

Listen up son, niggas wanna talk the talk

But can you walk the walk? New York, New York

For the thugs and players, money, sex and rhyme sayers

And I'm out, reachin for the bigger and the better

More advanced to the letter, type obsessive with the pressure

Escapin like some brothers with triple life

AWOL on the run from the man, I got a plan

For real though, I wanna get this dough on the strength, yo

The next plateau, movin up, yup, fuck a ho

And take it slow, cause that's the only way to flow

I rock a show and then it's back to the rest, so

Stay out of my zone, cause I'm stressin the facts

Seekin stacks of those plaques, and the boom and twenty sacks

Relax, maybe when I'm looted, mad booted in my mansion

Dirty dancin like Ace of Buchanan jammin
