empire state of mind (part II) broken down
Alicia Keys
empire state of mind (part II) broken down 歌詞
Grew up in a town
That is famous as a place of movie scenes
Noise is always loud
There are sirens all around
And the streets are mean
If I could make it here
I could make it anywhere
That's what they say
Seeing my face in lights
Or my name in marquees found down Broadway
Even if it ain't all it seems
[02 :17.84]I got a pocketful of dreams
[02:19.96]Baby, I'm from
[02:20.88][03:02.31]New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
[ 02:27.34][03:08.51]There's nothing you can't do
[02:29.95][03:11.41]Now you're in New York
[02:33.93][03:15.40]These streets will make you feel brand new
[02:37.40][03:18.82]Big lights will inspire you
[02:40.21][03:21.62]Hear it for New York, New York, New York
On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew
Ladies work so hard
Such a melting pot on the corner selling rock
Preachers pray to God
Hail a gypsy cab
Takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
Someone sleeps tonight with a hunger
For more than from an empty fridge
I'm going to make it by any means
One hand in the air for the big city
Street lights, big dreams, all looking pretty
No place in the world that can compared
Put your lighters in the air
Everybody say yeah, yeah yeah
