Rakim – New York (ya out there)
Aiyyo, we got five boroughs of ghettos
With many places to meet, you get lost in busy streets
The city that never sleeps
Mecca, Medina, the population increase
The desert and the oasis, New York, the far East
With Gods and sheiks, pretty Amazons for weeks
Player dons that fleece, the family’s black sheep
Icons that teach, that we all act unique
