Napoleon da Legend
-
African in NY
Verse 1:
Don't rock sandals I rock Timberlands
wear a skully to the side
You can see it in the motions when I walk
I'm an African in New York
See me cruising down the FDR
With a Dime Piece in the ride
You can hear it when I talk
I'm an Africa in New York
Chorus
Ohh Ohh – I'm an alien an illegal alien
I'm an African in New York
Ohh Ohh – I'm an alien and my name's Napoleon
I'm an African in New York
Verse 2:
From the village to the streets
from feeling the heat
to feeling chills down my spine from the winter breeze
trynna make my money stretch like a centipede
and leave a legacy longer than the Kennedy's
I need a green card without the legal fees
my Senegalese connects said he can get it for me legally
my cousin wired me money to buy him jeans
trynna figure out how to get a bank account without an ID
damn things work differently here
diamonds come out the ground they get it from Tiffany's here

and when you're down and out
you don't get no sympathy here
got a melody in my head like an epiphany here
man
I make a penny double
I make a dime triple
quadrupling a quarter I'm a man of many hustles
I'm making solid connects for the dollars and cents
so when you meet the God Acknowledge and respect
Chorus
Verse 3:
Money makes the man as someone said
so we hustle to get paid
Takes a man to sacrifice for years and smile
be yourself no matter what they say
Be yourself no matter what they say
be yourself no matter what they say
It's like this yall
For my brothers on the block
from the gutter to the top
Know we keeping our pockets flooded to the top
keep our brains sharp from hustling a lot
open up shop anywhere customers will flock
