Intro:
 NYC
 NYC  it's hell of a place to be
 Come inside
 Wanna know? Let's go
 The Big Rotten Apple surrounded by runaways  connected by bridges
 and uplift the sky high  vertical positions
 keeps criminals in vicious cycles
 Unrestrainable
 Cats be untameable and ghettos too
 You might see nightly drug busts on corners and in corridors
 outside of tenement walls
 Number holes in back store fronts where senior citizens press their
 luck
 to win a quick bucks while blood guts
 Litter sidewalks where cops use chalk to outline
 ya physical design, now peep the headlines
 "Madman kidnaps four or more
 torch a nig' apartment store
 on 25th and Douglas", parallel in pages "The Mob hits"
 In Central Park, rapists with shake faces
 It's all thorough, one city, five boroughs
 Associated with interlockin sub tunnels
 New York's undercover, haa
 You niggas wanna know why the skies are grey like cold steel
 Air still, quality stand to see the Mob tell
 Too much confusion, car pollution, drug abusin
 Distribution and gun shootin
 Teenagers sportin vibrator pagers, fornicators
 While immigrants work the garment district for low wages
 Nigga's Pop's crazy alcoholic wit swollen lips
 My moms be on some ol' fat cat shit
 It's economic, supply and demand, increase ya profit
 wit mad product, they can't sign us like domestic violence
 It's goin down on my island or Manhatten
 The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens or Staten where shit happens
 It's all thorough, one city, five boroughs
 Associated with interlockin sub tunnels
 New York's undercover brothers
 For all you motherfuckers and baby mothers
 Believe that!
 Outro:
 We're under siege, envy's NY period!
 See New York City we get deep
 We's rolls threes three and creep
 New York's undercover you'll discover
 You're under siege, envy's the NY period!
 See, huh
 Execution type murders
 Cops puttin niggas in the dope yoke hold
 Stranglin their life source
