<i>[Verse One: Jay-Z]</i><br>
This is black hoodie rap, there's no fear in my eyes where they lookin at<br>
Better look on map, Besides, mi nah like to eye fight<br>
Mi nah think such a ting is worth a man's life (CHRIST!!!)<br>
But if a man test my Stuy, I promise he won't like my reply<br>
Boom Bye Bye like Buju I'm crucial<br>
I'm a Brooklyn boy I may take some gettin use to<br>
Chain snatchin, ain't have it, gotta get it<br>
Same shitted, from Brownsville to Bainbrididge<br>
Fatherless child, mama put double shifts<br>
So the number runners was the only one I hanged widith<br>
Before you know it I'm in the game, bang fidith<br>
Fit no orangutans piddeals ciddaps like orange's I'm dangerous<br>
PLEASE!!! Tell me what the name of this is<br>

<i>[Verse Two: Jay-Z]</i><br>
I father, I Brooklyn Dodger them<br>
I Jack, I Rob, I sin<br>
Awww man, I'm Jackie Robinson<br>
Except when I run base, I dodge the pen<br>
Lucky me, lucky we, they didn't get me<br>
Now when I bring the Nets I'm the Black Branch Ricky<br>
From Brooklyn corners, burnin branches of sticky<br>
Spread love, Biggie, Brooklyn, hippie<br>
I pity, the fool with jewels like Mr. T<br>
With long history in my borough, they borrow<br>
With no intentions of returnin, tomorrow<br>
The sun don't come out for many, like Annie<br>
Half orphan, mama never had an abortion<br>
Papa sort of did, still I managed to live<br>
I go hard, I owe it all to the crib<br>
Now please tell me, what the fuck's harder than this!!!!<br>
<br>
<i>[Chorus: Santogold (Jay-Z & Santogold)]</i><br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!! (B-R-O-O-K!!!)<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!! (L-Y-N!! COME AGAIN!!!)<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!! (B-R-O-O-K!!!)<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!! (L-Y-N!! COME AGAIN!!!)<br>
<br>
<i>[Verse Three: Santogold]</i><br>
While I'm doin my time due to circumstance<br>
Cross that bridge is the consequence<br>
Once pretend now I paid my dues<br>
Risk takers we break the rules<br>
Get so dark, but I see good<br>
Bed-Stuy stay high in my neck of the woods<br>
Now, let it ring out, it's a warnin<br>
(BROOK-LYN!!!) Let it be sworn in<br>
Gotta make it stick workin like we good color<br>
Rip it to the core, underneath it or we oughta<br>
Right into the clip, bring it to the floor<br>
One step one step give it up more<br>
All this stuff and the streets are a mess<br>
With big ass dreams and a sick death wish<br>
Probably like the commercials says<br>
Kill the voice screamin in my head<br>
<br>
<i>[Chorus: Santogold]</i><br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
<br>
<i>[Outro: Santogold]</i><br>
Brooklyn we go hard, we go hard!!!!<br>
