🎤 Lyrics: Empire State of Mind
[Intro]
Ooooh, New York!
Ooooh, New York!
[Verse 1]
Grew up in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenes
Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway
[Hook 1]
Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby I'm from New York!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York!
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New Yooork!
[Verse 2]
On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard
Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God
Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
Someone sleeps tonight with a hunger far more than an empty fridge
[Hook 2]
I'mma make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby I'm from New York!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York!
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New Yooork!
[Bridge]
One hand in the air for the big city
Street lights, big dreams, all looking pretty
No place in the world that can compare
Put your lighters in the air, everybody say
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
[Hook 3]
In New York!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York!
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it from New York

Some weird reason this song inspires me so much. I first heard it in London and after that I felt so fresh and confident and when I’m tired or not inspired I out this song on and it just make me feel so much better. Although I live this song so much I have never even been to new York but this song makes me feel close to New York

[@Vixen1409]

I'm from New York everyone's is rude and fast pace no one makes eye contact and if you stop you get pushed around and it sucked being here during the pandemic everyone was dumb not worrying about anyone's safety their own included and the mayor made it worse it's not as good as movies make it out to be

[@Ace-yz9ro]

@@Vixen1409 that's so sad

[@Vixen1409]

@@Ace-yz9ro it is this used be be the city that never sleeps this was the place to be the tourist destination now it feel like a pain just to wake up and go outside every morning. Eye contact is a fighting action, stopping in the middle of the sidewalk gets you pummeled its hard to get back up, no one cares about safety, it stinks litterly and figurative, I feel like I'll get breathing problems just from walking into lower Manhatten AKA time Square were the ball drops or Broadway. this not were dreams are made its where you get stuck because you couldn't make it,
"If I can make it here I can make it anywhere"
Yeah cause it's Impossible making it here is like a miracle from God it's to expensive

[@Ace-yz9ro]

@@Vixen1409 that is really sad i live 10 minutes away from buffalo New York and me and my family go there all the time but i never knew tht happens k have always thought New York was amazing and beautiful because of movies and pictures but i guess not I'll ask my dad more about it he actually grew up in New York to and has pretty much been everywhere
