Diplomats - Built This City lyrics
rate meWe built this city<br />
We built this city<br />
We built this city<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
(rock, rock)~~~<br />
<br />
We built this city<br />
On these blocks we hustle<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
Turn bricks to whips<br />
We built this city on rock and roll<br />
We built this city<br />
In the midst of the struggle<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
From bottom to top<br />
We built this city on rock and roll<br />
Through the agony pain diplomatic we reign<br />
<br />
{Jim Jones}<br />
A yo my DIPSET Taliban <br />
We on these streets like the wars on the streets in Afghanistan better yet of Pakistan<br />
To America, Harlem’s Al Qaeda any problem I’ll spray ya not the star or the mayor<br />
But in this 50 block radius, lets get the rock and shave this sh** or get the glock and blaze this sh**<br />
Bit**** get the cock and savor it<br />
They say Jim Jones the Capo my favorite<br />
(Fu****s. Let’s get it right, sh**)<br />
Here’s some of the sh** my city wasn’t built up over<br />
Drugs, money, some sh** you’ll get killed up over <br />
Slumped on ya wheel straight tilted over<br />
Trust me dogs, i've seen it in plural<br />
N****z wasted , then painted and seen on a mural<br />
In this apple of mine is rotten, dill<br />
Yap up ya shines, clock shot that’ll crack up ya mind<br />
Cop rocks and cook that crack up to dimes<br />
New York City the capital of crime<br />
<br />
We built this city<br />
From the packin and stackin’<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
From the scramblin’ and gamblin’<br />
We built this city on rock and roll<br />
We built this city<br />
From the packin’ and stackin’<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
From the scramblin’ and gamblin’, blamin’ the cannon at ya face mutha<br />
We built this city on rock and roll (Santana the Great)<br />
<br />
{Juelz Santana}<br />
Yo, Now once again it’s Santana the Great<br />
I built this city on hammers and weight<br />
Gasoline rope, bandanas and tape<br />
Lots of fiends, lots of coke being handed away<br />
You know the usual <br />
Shut em’ down, set up shop, how we usually do<br />
Cut em’ down, dead the block, man we movin’ through<br />
Diplomats is the strongest force<br />
On and off the court we ball it's more than sport<br />
(Muthaf****. It’s Santana n**** come on)<br />
We built this city from ground zero the spittin’ the pound zero<br />
Brown pistol at cha get down kiko<br />
Yeah this is from the ground up N****<br />
So get ya weight and ya pounds up n****<br />
Cuz’ when it’s beef my homies mound up quicker,<br />
Spit the pound much quicker, lay you down much quicker<br />
You never been approached by golden eagles<br />
Vultures that’ll scope and feed you, no corpse, just leave you~~<br />
(Sh** you know)<br />
<br />
We built this city<br />
On blood sweat and tears<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
We gon’ make it to the top<br />
We built this city on rock and roll<br />
We built this city<br />
Through blood, swear and tears<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
Blood sweat and tears <br />
We built this city<br />
Through the trials and tribulations we gon’ make it through the years come on<br />
<br />
{Hell Rell}<br />
It’s like what I wouldn’t do for a buck<br />
My enemies can’t rest in piece Jones we shoot they funerals up<br />
New gangsta’s in the city b**** ring the alarm <br />
All you hoes bow down kiss the ring of a don<br />
It’s about to get real big playa, humunguos<br />
Stack money so long, till it grew fungus<br />
We was gon’ let you live unitl you through punches<br />
Now it’s got to get critical and we got to get rid of you<br />
And we the most talked about, the most popular<br />
We live by the code we the DIPSET Mafia<br />
You never know who’s watchin’ ya<br />
You never know who’s plottin’ to pop at cha<br />
We focus like a pair of binoculars<br />
Im bout to get gritty. <br />
M5, CLKs garage look like alphabet city<br />
And I’m a hustla, I put cracks in communities,<br />
Cops can’t touch me, got Diplomatic Immunity<br />
Now drop em’, guaranteed a million shipped and scanned<br />
If not back to the block, strips and grams<br />
<br />
<br />
Cam<br />
If not get wit Cam<br />
I got clips that lift the vans. Flip it fam<br />
Sh** they can kick the can<br />
This cat think he sling cause he gotta pinky ring<br />
Rinky dink diamonds they don’t even make ya pinky bling<br />
(We built this city) And now I’m gon’ kill the city<br />
(We built this city) Crib for 50, yeah I’m actin’ real sadity<br />
(We built this city) Cause I collect mills in 50<br />
(We built this city on rock) For real it’s pretty and ya’ll gon feel the pity<br />
<br />
We built this city<br />
On blood sweat and tears<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
We gon’ make it to the top<br />
We built this city on rock and roll<br />
We built this city<br />
On blood, swear and tears<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
Blood sweat and tears <br />
We built this city<br />
Through the trials and tribulations we gon’ make it through the years come on<br />
<br />
We built this city<br />
On these blocks we hustle<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
Turn bricks to whips<br />
We built this city on rock and roll<br />
We built this city<br />
In the mist of the struggle<br />
On rock<br />
We built this city<br />
From bottom to top<br />
We built this city on rock and roll<br />
Through the agony pain diplomatic we reign<br />
<br />
We built this city<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
We built this city<br />
We built this city on rock and roll<br />
<br />
We built this city<br />
We built this city on rock<br />
We built this city<br />
We built this city on rock and roll
