[00:01.94]Lyrics by：J. Tempchin
[00:02.77]Composed by：J. Tempchin
[00:07.57]You belong to the city
[00:12.41]You belong to the night
[00:17.24]In the river of darkness
[00:21.63]He's a man of the night
[00:26.91]What the deal playboy
[00:28.08]Just rest your soul
[00:29.37]I be holding it down yo still love the dough
[00:31.83]Got these ladies on the cock now you know how we go
[00:34.16]Got the whole world on lock down you know how we flow
[00:36.60]Don't worry about Brooklyn I continue to flame
[00:38.99]Therefore a world with amnesia won't forget your name
[00:41.47]You held it down long enough let me take those reigns
[00:44.22]And just like your spirit the Commission remains
[00:46.26]Niggas can cross the T's and dot the I's
[00:48.87]Now that I got too popular to cop them pies
[00:51.13]I'm taking this rap **** serious to my demise
[00:53.67]Jay ****'s like cake mix watch me rise
[00:56.16]Basics in the basement wasted
[00:58.55]Asking my dog for advice so when he can't say ****
[01:01.23]My hatred is fueled just give me a sign
[01:03.73]And I let the world know that the city is mine what
[01:06.27]You belong to the city
[01:11.18]You belong to the night
[01:16.05]In the river of darkness
[01:20.60]He's a man of the night
[01:25.58]Y'all wanna know how I flow just seek and you find
[01:27.84]I'm like a brain in the voice box I speak my mind
[01:30.49]About to redefine rap mami either I'm
[01:33.15]The illest nigga doing it or these niggas is losing it
[01:35.66]I read a article that said I was ruining ****
[01:38.00]But every time I look I'm moving units in quick
[01:40.37]So I'ma hit y'all with these last two and split
[01:42.83]And leave niggas with nothing but my influences-es
[01:45.16]Students of Jigga I ain't mad yeah bite my ****
[01:47.85]Sell half of what I sell because it's not quite my ****
[01:50.27]I'm the type to buy a Rollie and just ice my ****
[01:52.60]On the spot **** coming back twice to ****
[01:54.92]How real is that
[01:55.96]My floss game still intact
[01:57.69]Boss game you lame dudes can't feel that
[01:59.91]Like the first dude to cop the 850 in '89
[02:02.40]And drove it up to 55th the city is mine what
[02:05.27]You belong to the city
[02:09.88]You belong to the night
[02:14.86]In the river of darkness
[02:19.17]He's a man of the night
[02:24.38]I snatch your girl 'cause your arm ain't strong enough
[02:26.93]Plus y'all don't stay in the studio long enough
[02:29.27]I make hits while y'all stay hating and take bricks
[02:31.76]Had it locked till I came in the club Take 6
[02:34.24]Got your chick 'cause you swore she was innocent
[02:36.63]Got her a Chinese manicure hair done by Dominicans all for what
[02:39.96]So I could be in a dark corner all in her butt
[02:42.05]At the bar alchoholing her up
[02:43.99]I represent the lifestyle of those who thirst cream
[02:46.80]Buck fifty a shot Louis the Thirteenth
[02:49.17]Jay-Z Roc-A-Fella yo know the name
[02:51.31]I ain't a player get it right I'm controlling the game
[02:53.97]From now until they blow holes in my frame
[02:56.14]I'ma stand firm holding my aim feel me
[02:58.89]I'm the focal point like Biggie in his prime
[03:01.05]On the low though shh the city is mine
[03:03.92]You belong to the city
[03:08.65]You belong to the night
[03:13.68]In the river of darkness
