New York Ny lyrics

Well all these people of the city will keep you in their blind spots
especially when they know that youre out looking to sign dots
I tried to tell this girl how twisted my mind got
but its her dream to ride the conveyer belt of that side walk
she’s got intentions of being number one
but can she handle rejection in the city of no sun
where bricks change colors faster than careers do
and few people drive away and like what’s in their rearview

new york citys so far away but I cant wait even
for one more day theys ay these things come
and these things go but if I don’t try ill never know

she don’t care what it takes she knows
shes got the ability and with what her folks make you know
shed have stability she just needs to get out there
and step toward her validity she can’t keep dying
over this because its just killing me
shes not used to foot steps digging in her chest
high heeled investments and suit’s getting undressed
growing old and having new recruits become the best
and finding that she’s stepped on everyone and no one’s left

well it hurts like walking barefoot on light bulbs
smashing ideas with open skin til’ the pearl white
drops of blood turn red and everyone can tell
that you’ve worked hard enough its time to go
get your map and compass and don’t listen to
them and don’t think about how much time you’re
fixing to spend the dirt only ends when the pavement
begins this is your heart your dream and you’re your only friend so go

you can kick the earth as hard as you want
to show your frustration or youcan get in your car
and kick your foot to the gas and keep accelerating
till youhit your destination so go
