The City Is Mine
Lyricist：Shawn Carter, Glenn Frey, Kenny Gamble, Leon Huff, Terry Riley, Jack Tempchin
You belong to the city
You belong to the night
In the river of darkness
He's the man of the night
What the deal, playboy? Just rest your soul
I be holdin' it down, yo, still love the dough
Got these ladies on the cock, now you know how we go
Got the whole world on lock down, you know how we flow
Don't worry about Brooklyn, I continue to flame
Therefore a world with amnesia won't forget your name
You held it down long enough, let me take those reigns
And just like your spirit the commission remains
Niggaz cross the T's and dot the I's
Now that I got too popular to cop them pies
I'm takin' this rap shit serious to my demise
Jay shit's like cake mix, watch me rise
Basics in the basement, waste it
Asking my dog for advice so when he can't say shit
My hatred is fueled, just give me a sign
And I let the world know that the city is mine, what?
You belong to the city
You belong to the night
In the river of darkness
He's the man of the night
Y'all want to know how I flow just seeking you fine
I'm like a brain in the voice box, I speak my mind
About to redefine rap mami, either I'm
The illest nigga doing it or these niggaz is losin' it
I read a article which said I was ruinin' shit
But every time I look, I'm movin' units in quick
So I'ma hit y'all with these last two and split
And leave niggaz with nothing but my influenceses
Soon it's the Jigga, I ain't mad, yeah, bite my shit
Sell half of what I sell because it's not quite my shit
I'm the type to buy a Roley and just ice my shit
On the spot, fuck comin' back twice to shit

I realize that a floss game still intact
Horse game, you lame dudes can't feel that?
Like the first dude to cop the 850 and 89
And drove it up to 55th, the city is mine, what?
You belong to the city
You belong to the night
In the river of darkness
He's the man of the night
I snatch your girl 'cause your arm ain't strong enough
Plus ya don't stay in the studio long enough
I make hits while y'all stay hatin' and take bricks
Had it locked till I came in the club, Take 6
Got your chick 'cause you swore she was innocent
Got her a Chinese manicure, hair done by Dominicans
All for what, so I could be in a dark corner, all in the butt
At the bar alcoholing her up
I represent the lifestyle of those who thirst cream
Buck fifty a shot, Louis the Thirteenth
Jay-Z, Roc-A-Fella, yo, know the name
I ain't a player, get it right, I'm controllin' the game
From now until they blow holes in my frame
I'ma stand firm, holdin' my aim, feel me?
I'm the focal point, like Biggie in his prime
On the low though, the city is mine
You belong to the city
You belong to the night
In the river of darkness
He's the man of the night
You belong to the city
You belong to the night
In the river of darkness
He's the man of the night
You belong, you belong
In the river of darkness
He's the man of the night
