In The City - Chris Brown

Whooooa-whooooa Whooooa-whooooa And if the city's skyscrapers rise over this island Would you be glad to see Manhattan for once? I knew the dream, it died JMZ line, Myrtle and Broadway But I'd be glad to see Manhattan for once Whoa-whoa, living life in the city Whoa-whoa, it will never be pretty Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Whoa-whoa, we can plan if we make it Whoa-whoa, we won't let 'em They won't take it from me No-oh-oh, whoa Whooooa-whooooa Whooooa-whooooa And if you leave, don't leave me all alone 'Cause I'll be scared, I'll be naked, I'll be cold And I miss my dad, Cleopatra sitting on the phone So take me back off these streets And we'll never be apart Together from the start Never, never, falling back alone Oh-whoa, living life in the city Oh-whoa, it will never be pretty Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-whoa, we can plan if we make it Oh-whoa, we won't let 'em They won't take it from me No-oh-oh, whoa And if the sun don't shine on me today And if the subways flood and bridges break Will you just lay down and dig your grave Or will you rail against the dying day

Paralyzed by my envy of the night I am lost without you here and outside it looks like rain For the last time, I bleed myself dry tonight And nothing I could ever write, would help you understand this life There's so much beauty when your eyes lay lost in all the city lights The wax will drip as so as blood, romance is dead and all is lust You are the water in my lungs, we've lost it We are all alone Paralyzed by my envy of the night I am lost without you here and outside it looks like rain Tonight I bleed myself dry, I bleed myself dry, I bleed myself dry And nothing I could ever write, would help you understand this life There's so much beauty when your eyes lay lost in all the city lights The wax will drip as so as blood, romance is dead and all is lust You are the water in my lungs, we've lost it... Now!

We believe in the one true God We believe in Father, Spirit, Son We believe that good has won And all of the people of God sing along Amen, amen Amen, amen We are free, He died and lives again We will be a people freed from sin We'll be free, a kingdom with no end And all of the people of God sing along Amen, amen Amen, amen Amen, amen, yeah Our father who art in Heaven, hallowed by Thy name Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven 'Give us our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses As we forgive those who have trespassed against us Lord, lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil For Thine is the kingdom, power, and the glory forever We're singing Amen, amen Amen, amen Amen, amen, yeah

I'm tired of tending to this fire I've used up all I've collected I have singed my hands It's glowing Embers barely showing Proof of life in the shadows Dancing on my plans They know that it's almost... They know that it's almost over They know that it's almost... They know that it's almost over The burning is so low it's concerning 'Cause they know that when it goes out It's a glorious gone It's only time before they show me Why no one ever comes back with details from beyond They know that it's almost... They know that it's almost over They know that it's almost... They know that it's almost over They know that it's almost over They know that it's almost over In time I will leave the city For now, I will stay alive In time I will leave the city For now, I will stay alive In time I will leave the city For now, I will stay alive In time I will leave the city For now, I will stay alive They know that it's almost... They know that it's almost over They know that it's almost... They know that it's almost over (They know...) (They know...) Last year, I needed change of pace Couldn't take the pace of change Moving hastily But this year, though I'm far from home In Trench, I'm not alone These faces facing me They know... They know... What I mean
