Hey hey, ha ha say what say what

Ha ha bust it yo

Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner

Sometimes I feel like my only friend

Is the city I live in, is beautiful Brooklyn

Long as I live here believe I'm on fire hey

Cuz it's the B-the-R-the-O-the-O-K

L-Y-N is the place where I stay

The B-the-R-the-O-the-O-K

Best in the world and all USA

It's the B-to-the-R-the-O-the-O-K

L-Y-N is the place where I stay

The B-to-the-R-the-O-the-O-K

Place where I rest is on my born day

Bust it, sometimes I sit back and just reflect

Watch the world go by and my thought connect

I think about the time past and the time to come

Reminesce on Bed-Stuy when I was pride and young

I used to try and come, to the neighborhood function

Throw on my Izod, say a little something

When I was just a youngin, before the days of thuggin

How me and Charlie Chims (aiyyo what?) I'm only buggin

Fast forward, Nine-Now I gotta team my seed

I must proceed at God's speed to perform my deed

Livin the now space and time, round the nine to five

For as long as I'm alive, paw I got to strive

I ain't sittin roadside, that ain't harder to plan

I'm out here for my fam doin all that I can

I love my city, sweet and gritty in land to outskirts

Nickname Bucktown cuz we grown to outburst

Philosophy redefine us, touch mines I touch back

Walk the streets like a sweet and get beat like drum tracks

Catch no shakes over jakes (boomp-boomp!) we bust back

Bring the marty to your face wit no place to run back

I'm from the slums that created the bass that thump back

This ain't a game clown, play ya James Brown and jump back

What you want, Jack? Young cats stash they jums at

Draw they guns back, momma screams where she sons at

Tryin to hunt that, recurring dream of high stakes

The fourth largest, first artist, Brooklyn is the place

Settled by the judge many years ago

Three billion strong and here we go



GOOD MORNINNNNNNNNNGG VIETNAM!!!

Ha (back up back up back up back up back up) [repeated in background]

Yo sometimes I sit back, reflect on the place that I live at

Unlike any place I ever been at

The home of big gats, deep dish hammer rim caps

Have a mishap, push ya wig back

Where you go to get the fresh trim at

Four on the jake got the Timb rack

Blue collars metro carding it

Thugs mobbin it, form partnership

Increase armorment, street pharmacist

Deep consequence, when you seek sleek ornaments

You get caught, rode the white horse and can't get off

Big dogs that trick off just get sent off

They shoebox stash is all they seeds gotta live off

It's real yo but still yo, it's love here

And it's felt by anybody that come here

Out of towners take the train, plane and bus here

Must be something that they really want here

One year as a resident, deeper sentiment

Shoutout "Go Brooklyn!", they representin it

Sittin on they front stoop sippin Guinesses

Usin native dialect in they sentences

From the treeline blocks to the tenaments

To the Mom & Pop local shop menaces

Travel all around the world in great distances

And ain't a place that I know that bear resemblance

That's why we it The Planet

Not a borough or a prov, it's our style that's uncalm

From ?sun? to the ? to the Lafayette Gardens

White ?coff guawinas? in they army jacket linings

Yo this goes out to my cats in Coney Isle

Friday night out in front The Himalaya goin wild

This goes out to Crown Heights and Smurv Village

The nighties, and all my ?yarda trenny? Brown's Village

Parkside tennants caught, thirties, forties, and the fifties

The cats out in Starite City gettin busy

To the Hook, to the East, to the Stuy

Bushwick and Kanarcy, Farraget, Fullgreen, and Marcy

My Flatbush posse, generals of armies

When it's time to form, just call me

And let this song be, playin loud in Long B

If you love Bucktown STRONGLY!

RAISE IT UP!



Brooklyn my habitat, the place where it happen at

Live sway and the sharp balance of the battle axe

Irons is brandished at, thugs draw they hammer back

It's where you find the news tool crew cameras at

It's where my fam is at, summertime jame is at

They play Big and get you open like a sandal back

Hotter than candle wax, hustlin you can't relax

The crack babies tryin to find where they mama's at

It's off the handle black, wit big police scandals that

Turn into actions screenplays sold to Miramax

The type of place where they check your appearance at

And cats who know where all the hot 'lo gear is at

The stompin grounds, where you find a pound, smoke is that

Be blazin charm that have your wave cap floatin back

The doorstep where the disposessed posted at

Dope fiends out at Franklin Ave sellin zovarax

You big ballin better keep your money folded back

Cuz once the young guns notice that it's over, black

Brooklyn keep on takin it, worldwide we known for that

Flossy cats get it snatched like the local tax

The place I sharpen up my baritone vocals at

Where one of the greatest MC's was a local cat
