[verse 1: l.i.f.e. long]
big city, even larger world. rotten
apple worm grabs the pearl, revolving around the struggle
of the city. this the land of the bold
and gritty, shifty, life on the edge. the crowd walking
everyday survival, avoid point of views, those talking
unimportant cliques and crews judging your moves
my day’s like a walk on the strip. everybody stay
dipped. it’s like poverty’s flipped when the poor living
like the rich [?] to keep up with joneses
can’t pay bills sipping and burning away depression
liquor and cess sessions. nightmares, the dream repeated
on the news, violence don’t stop. now they do the
cops—caught a shapeup plus some sour at the barbershops
shootouts on fulton street in front the chicken spot
after hours, eyes open on them crooklyn blocks
best believe anywhere it could happen, hammers clapping
kiddies scrambling over benjies and franklin. ana-
-lyzing the first seconds in a new york minute

[verse 2: l.i.f.e. long]
ayyo
the walls tagged, the system’s k!lling the art
you concerned—time for a quick spark downtown, under
beneath manhattan bridge, backstreet cobblestone
dumbo high-cl-ss from park avenue
lexington soul wondering how we’re getting by
prices too d-mn high, the amount of peter luger steaks weighed in
unemployment paper—errybody fighting for
re-re-extension. moms and pops business
affected by gentrification, city crumbling, in and
out of fiscal depression. budget cuts leads
to workers getting slashed. out of nowhere, i caught
lady liberty’s wrath—she cut me where it hurt. path-
-kisser struggling, balancing with the s-t-
-r-e-double-s. the hustle’s like a walking
park recess. two for five, three for ten
we’re grinding 9-to-5 with street pharma-
-ceutical distributing ninety-nine-cent methods of
surviving

[verse 3: l.i.f.e. long]
sunsets—catch the view q.u. night in sunnyside
a far rock over the beach at sunrise. it’s like
a jungle out there. sedgwick, cedar
bx park where kool herc sparked the culture
on c-n-l street, look out for ninja vultures
the dbd, gucci, louis vuitton, prada imposters
trains like a talent show-slash-quickie market
double-d batteries, candy, and live art
all on a ride uptown to the south bronx, alphabets
connect to numbers on the iron horse, underground
tunnels set the course of transportation. hail a yellow
cab and speed to the destination if they’ll even
stop downtown. like nowhere else is like how my
city gets down. from ellis to staten island
the ferry goes around. p-ssengers stuck in rush hour traffic
midtown, get lost in strong isle. new york
beyond the five borough bound
