1
[Verse 1 - Illy:]
2
Yeah, now, I don't mean to brag but
3
I'm a big city kid
4
Gone with the wind
5
Shoot from the hip
6
And all across the world, no difference
7
Every city in the world, at home within
8
Man, it could be nothing like the hard life
9
Shit, still a sucker for a Skyline
10
The open road's fine to write a couple of lines
11
But the cities tell the story of a lifetime
12
Cut; Lights, Camera, Action
13
It's all that, everything you imagine
14
It's right there, you can reach out and grab it
15
Dreams turn reality big smoke magic
16
Maybe I'm biased and maybe [?]
17
Maybe it's just that I don't know no better
18
City don't sleep, speakers at eleven
19
If they got a question this is what I tell them (them)
20
[Pre-Hook - Thomas Jules & Illy:]
21
Them city streets are endless
22
Them bright lights catch the eye
23
We push it to the limit
24
We build it to the sky
25
And anything can happen
26
It's on you to roll the dice
27
Hold tight and get ready to ride
28
[Hook - Thomas Jules:]
29
I'm home, I'm home and I'm one for the city tonight
30
Said, I'm home and I'm one for the city tonight
31
[Verse 2 - Illy:]
32
Yeah, you could live the dream
33
Have it fall in your lap
34
Fall in love or fall through the cracks
35
Tough call to avoid those traps
36
But in high-stakes business you gonna get that
37
Take it from the streets to the penthouse suites
38
All you need is a dream, a belief
39
A little luck and a bit of guts to achieve
40
Heart of the city, belly of the beast
41
Yeah, what you pay for, cheap thrills ain't cheap
42
Pay a high price if you wanna taste free
43
All the good isn't always what it seems
44
But that's fine with me, this is where I wanna be
45
Amongst the bright lights and the beat of the city
46
In any direction people are with me
47
We get busy, what a trip, what a blessing
48
They wanna question so I tell them
49
[Pre-Hook - Thomas Jules & Illy:]
50
Them city streets are endless
51
Them bright lights catch the eye
52
We push it to the limit
53
We build it to the sky
54
And anything can happen
55
It's on you to roll the dice
56
Hold tight and get ready to ride
57
[Hook - Illy:]
58
I'm home, I'm home and I'm one for the city tonight
59
Said, I'm home and I'm one for the city tonight
60
I'm home, I'm home and I'm one for the city tonight
61
Said, I'm home and I'm one for the city tonight
62
[Outro - Thomas Jules:]
63
I'mma stay hard 'till the sun goes down
64
'till the lights come out
65
'till the lights go down
66
And the sun comes up again
67
I'mma stay hard 'till the sun goes down
68
'till the lights come out
69
'till the lights go down
70
And the sun comes up again
71
I'mma stay hard 'till the sun goes down
72
'till the lights come out
73
'till the lights go down
74
And the sun comes up again
75
I'mma stay hard 'till the sun goes down
76
'till the lights come out
77
'till the lights go down
78
And the sun comes up again
