This City

[Intro: Lupe Fiasco]Now what if I told you my city was the best

And my city was a threat to the rest

And my city was a threat to the rest

[Hook: Patrick Stump]This city is my city

And I love it, yeah I love it

I was born and raised here

I got it made here

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay

[Verse 1: Patrick Stump]From every corner

To every block yeah

Whether it's warm or storming or downright stupid hot, hot

From the problems all the way to the solutions yeah

Forget all the drugs and gangs, corruption and pollution no

[Hook: Patrick Stump]Cause this city is my city

And I love it, yeah I love it

I was born and raised here

I got it made here

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay here

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]Now what if I told you my city was the best

And my city was a threat to the rest

But you can't rest inside my city

My city's so cold if you ain't dressed

And what they accept, I had the right address

Parts of my city, certain colors can't step

And sadly I'm talking about the color of your skin

Sorry my brother can't let you in

Cause the property value might go down to a level that's

Economically unacceptable and socially tabu for us to live around you

Uh, uh, is this what it's down to?

Root for the same team, we have the same dream

Not the same reality,

Actually, mines is a bad education and gentrification

Despite all the above I love...

[Hook: Patrick Stump]This city is my city

And I love it, yeah I love it

I was born and raised here

I got it made here

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay here

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

[Bridge: Patrick Stump]And you can take my picture

You can take my name

But you're never gonna take my city away

Cause you can burn it to the ground

Oh oh let it flood, but it's in my blood

[Hook: Patrick Stump]Cause this city is my city

And I love it, yeah I love it

I was born and raised here

I got it made here

And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay here

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life, ah ah

For life...
