Walk in New York Lyrics
[Intro: Fredro Starr]
One time, one time, that’s it
Yeahhh
This the Onyx shit, know what I’m sayin’
Coming out the motherfucking crevices
Coming out the fucking cracks like snakes boy
Word to mother
All my niggas in Queens and ya don’t stop
All my niggas in Brooklyn and ya don’t stop
All my niggas Uptown and ya don’t stop
All my niggas in the Boogie Woogie and ya won’t stop
Yeah, we gonna set this shit New York style
(Southside Suicide)
Yeah
[Verse 1: Fredro Starr]
We don’t throw gang signs in New York (Nah)
We just be on some shit in New York (Yeah)
New York City, shifftee low down gritty
You, punk niggas, yell pity and smell shitty
N.Y.P.D. can suck my dick!
This is the way we rip shit from the bricks (Rahhh)
Walking like a zombie smoking blunts in the lobby
I be rollin’ with more niggas (Rahhh) behind me than Khadafi
[Verse 2: Sonsee]
(Attention!) Fuck all that slippin’ and itchin’
I’m rappin’, loot snachin’, stayin’ greasy this shit ain’t easy
I’m comin’ rawhide, serious as a four five
Them damn streets are eager to claim all lives
(But) Fuck it, it’s my home hate it or appreciate it
It’s the torrid eight million story orientated
Designated and made for the real renegades
So I never been afraid to stomp comp, then get paid
[Chorus]
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
[Verse 3: Sonsee]
I’ma stay on my job, ’cause that’s my adventure
I was bred to be a big gainer who contained a percent of
The U.S.G. which make me switch like a schizo
Where I roam it gets so hot, but never blow my cool at no spot (Nope!)
If the heat got too much, I’ma slide down South
Outta town bound, either home or away (New York kids!)
Hold shit down on KeepLock, we rock all night!
And if Zoo York niggas wasn’t part of your shit, your shit wasn’t right
We known to start shit up from trends to riots, to fracas
(And) Big enough to fuck up anybody that wanna attack us
And that’s cause the five boroughs are deep!
Most of us are peeps (True Zoo York niggas!), we play for keeps
Wanna be a part of it
New York is always starting shit (Fuck dat!)
[Verse 4: Fredro Starr]
I’m the nasty native New Yorker! The full of shit talker!
The dark street walker! Sign of the time stalker!
Bringin’ it back to reality (Yeah)
This is for my niggas in N.Y.C.!
Not since ’76, since the Knicks won the championships
Has there been some more shit like this (Hey, yeah!)
So back up, get off of that soft or wack rap style
My shots ring loud and panic the crowd
(Blow ’em up!) Get up, my sounds downtown
(Hold ’em up!) Give me everything right now
So fuck the mayor, fuck Rudy, Ray, and (Fuck) the governor
Ya’ll, niggas, couldn’t walk my walk, my talk’s ruggeder
[Chorus]
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way!
[Verse 5: Sticky Fingaz]
Yeah, I’m from the place where criminals is born (Right!)
And Sticky Fingaz ain’t never led a nigga wrong
Representin’ New York City and for what it’s worth
Yo we the triflest motherfuckers on the face of this Earth
So if you don’t like your life fuck with a nigga from New York!
The instincts we got is to shoot first then talk
But what seems to always gives us away is our “niggery” walk
And I speak from experience, so pleader take heed to advice
We sellin’ guns and drugs, and sex, or anything for the right price
The crime rate’s so goddamn high, we had to name the shit twice
‘Cause tourists be scared to death to visit the criminal’s paradise
Home of bloodshed and tears and for souvenirs there’s fears
(It appears, nobody cares) So say your prayers
Or you gonna get double crossed and set up, either head up or shut up
‘Cause bullets ain’t got no names and anybody could get wet up (Wet up!)
And end up on the front page of the “Daily News” papers!
But while crooks dressed in Brooks and behind desks in skyscrapers
And I never bought no shit, but then I never took no shit
I’m a kleptomaniac, I think I got a fuckin’ habit
So lick shot to all the boroughs and ghettos across the nation
Other states who could relate get bullet proof appreciation
(Appreciation, appreciation, appreciation, appreciation)
‘Cause…
[Chorus: Onyx & Sticky Fingaz]
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way we walk in New York
This is the way, this the way, this is
(The way we walk in New York)
