[00:00.133] 作曲 : Deleno Matthews/Levar Coppin/Tarik Trotter/John Gourly/Alana Chenevert
[00:00.266] P is for the city
[00:01.764] P is for, P is for, for the city
[00:05.026] P is for, for the ci-, ci-, city
[00:07.966] P is for, P is for the city where it all began
[00:11.929] I'm an Ernest Hemingway portrait painted by Ernie Barnes
[00:15.548] Clean sneakers and dirty horns, last soldier of thirty gone
[00:19.096] Who lost hope but still journeyed on
[00:21.316] Yet I'm the reason we gon' have to get the gurney for him
[00:24.486] Karma police carrying customized cuffs for me
[00:27.503] I hope these taped up guns'll still bust for me
[00:30.513] I had the whole world, it wasn't enough for me
[00:33.433] It got me feelin' like the Lord lost trust for me
[00:36.431] I made a means to an end when there were no wins
[00:39.501] I burned bridges, I had sworn to be eternal friends
[00:42.517] The last ones I ever intended to turn against
[00:45.408] Until we grew our separate ways like fraternal twins
[00:48.530] So to the chosen few with whom I need to reconcile
[00:51.364] My mother's mother, my only brother, my second child
[00:54.476] I've always loved you, although that was rarely said aloud
[00:57.360] So take forever, I guess better late than never proud
[00:59.492] I'm gonna breathe in the bellows with the apple on my head
[01:06.097] It's hard to gain perspective with the world in your hands
[01:11.696] Gonna drown in the shallows, ashes in the bay
[01:17.762] Never lookin' back until there's nothin' in my way
[01:23.636] Yo, identify with the dead or the livin', I don't know
[01:27.484] Maybe my people set up to fall like a domino
[01:30.422] America, the beautiful, go ask Geronimo
[01:33.402] What's the worst they could do to you? I bet my mama know
[01:36.405] I bet my father know your Honor'd throw the book at us
[01:39.449] Even if justice wasn't blind, she'd never look at us
[01:42.455] I want that clutch of what I could not touch
[01:44.762] I was tryna get what I could get before I get locked up
[01:47.727] And when that death clock struck
[01:49.182] I was depressed enough to go ahead and press my luck
[01:52.219] They held me down so long, I figured I should just rise up
[01:55.205] Like helium from the delirium
[01:57.156] Tryna change my skin color like a chameleon
[02:00.221] But are my best years of life behind or still ahead of me?
[02:03.357] What would I leave behind if I was over everything?
[02:06.321] The foundation for creation of a better me
[02:09.299] That's honestly the true definition of legacy, do it
[02:11.420] I'm gonna breathe in the bellows with the apple on my head
[02:17.906] It's hard to gain perspective with the world in your hands
[02:23.639] Gonna drown in the shallows, ashes in the bay
[02:29.944] Devil on my back and there's a demon in my way
[02:40.553] God damn it! I said now
[02:48.568] Told you once, can't fool me twice
[02:51.377] Hate to be the bearer of bad advice
[02:54.231] What I see before my eyes, bear witness
[02:57.304] P is, P is for the city, P is for
[02:59.930] Fuel the fire (P is for, for the city, P is for, for the, for the city)
[03:04.609] To light the path of least resistance
[03:06.816] P is for the city, for, for the city
[03:08.925] Resistance
[03:11.575] Yo, they say my seed is a future threat, that's all too correct
[03:14.959] For that two fifths of a man, that barrel to your neck
[03:17.964] God damn it, the hot hammer get all due respect
[03:20.853] For the young cell block cannon that calls you collect
[03:23.834] After runnin' multiple rings like the Dream Team
[03:26.985] Tryna breathe and touch keys like Kaseem Dean
[03:29.962] Supreme cream, his hands so dirty, it seemed clean
[03:32.869] Scream murder, watchin' 30 for 30, here go the theme, nigga
[03:36.017] I'm gonna breathe in the bellows with the apple on my head
[03:42.246] It's hard to gain perspective with the world in your hands
[03:47.534] Gonna drown in the shallows with the lovebirds in the bay
[03:54.244] Never lookin' back until there's nothin' in my way
[04:00.310] P is for the city, for the
[04:02.107] P is for, for, for, for the city
[04:04.649] P is for, for the ci-ci-city
[04:07.836] P is for, P is for, for the city where it all began
