Gotham (Ox City) Songtext / Lyric

Ah, you think darkness is your ally

But you're merely adapted to dark

I was born in it, molded by it

I didn't see the light until I was already a man

By then it was nothing to me but blinding

You are now tuned in to the adventures of Vast Man and Goblin

We stay in shape like Porsches on blocks

Where women's gorgeous and kids stay strapped like Bugs Bunny Jordans

It's crazed, all streets where eyes is forever glazed

Like lady lemon cakes? in an age is a phase? everything trying to get paid

I miss some of my friends one time I'm a see at the end, at some point

Can't hold on to every bit of [?]

Trying to get over forbidden-ness (or bitterness) like ban hands

So raise em up to the roof, even though some are roofless

Everything ain't sweet, tell that to those that's living toothless

I'm a always be with my fam, like boys chasing cute girls

And stay straight through the swirls

Knowing everything ain't diamonds and pearls

Keep it up, that's positive, patience is a virtue

Don't let anything that irritates hurt you

Cause we ain't gonna lose our top

Even when, struggling at the bottom, Gotham

Yo I got you, like yo I got em, Gotham

Got you, got you

This is our city, New York Gritty

Gotham, I got em, Ox city

Right in the face of death, I show no pity

That's why all of my exs still love me

Wifey was Diane, mistress was Selena

Love that Amazon, but the Kruger was meaner

(Huh) plus I love to demean her

I be in Mecca, she stayed in Medina

Cipher unknown, we red hot

With two cops on roof tops that's dead shots

The Duo dynamic is call,

Once we move these packs to D.C. we're goin ball

We running this city as far as the eyes can see

The shadows betray you cause they belong me

Illogicality, deception ain't it?

The reality is we all initiated

Into the league of shadows

I told Raven to keep her eye on the sparrow

Iron Galaxy clique

Clayface will shape-shift and you can get a face lift

With a box cutter, that's mad cows son

(Hell) you know I'm a ox-cutter

Because Ox is so gutter

From 125 all the way to Sutta

Knowing everything ain't diamonds and pearls

Keep it up, that's positive, patience is a virtue

Don't let anything that irritates hurt you

Cause we ain't gonna lose our top

Even when, struggling at the bottom, Gotham

Yo I got you, like yo I got em, Gotham

Got you, got you
