In the City
Adrian Lau Lyrics

I used to get high on the cheese bus
I used to smoke weed while riding the school bus

Game on the double D cups with the main drugs
I used to be focused on women and drugs

Pocket full of blue dream crushed in a green dutch
I had weed rolled in a cigarillo

Clean cut with a flow tighter than police cuffs
I was well-dressed and had a cool rap style

I used to write graffiti on the sidewalk
I used to be a graffiti artist

Hannah Montana hand styles with the Krylon
I used to tag with a specific graffiti style and brand of spray paint

Night bomb war four was the icon
I participated in a particular type of graffiti event called a 'night bomb war'

Writing on any rooftop that I could climb on
I would tag on any rooftop that I could access

Hit the trees like George of the Jungle
I smoked weed heavily

Spitting that raw by the bundle
I was a skilled rapper with a lot of material

Till the money tall like Mutombo
I made a lot of money

And long like the China Wall
I had consistent success and wealth

Spit game sick, think you need a Tylenol
My lyrics were so good that they could be considered painful to listen to

Old school, smoking splits with the vinyl mob
I smoked weed and listened to vinyl records with my friends

Get cake then I dictate who I’m styling on
Once I made a lot of money, I could choose who to associate with

Flowing like beside a widowed leviathan
My rap flow was powerful and impressive

Let me see your vice, baby, go and get your biting on
I wanted someone to show me what their addiction or weakness was

And I let the money buy a lawn
I spent my money on material possessions like a lawn

And you are not on that game on
You are not at the same level as me

You light my world with a billion suns
You bring me happiness beyond measure

Make my dreams come true
You make all my wishes come true

As I sit on cloud nine
I am very content

Thinking of a way to outline
I am thinking about a plan

A plan to outshine ‘cause this about time
I want to be more successful and it's the right time to do so

I wanna know what heaven is like without dying
I want to experience pure happiness without dying

I wish I could’ve told you more without lying
I wish I could have been more truthful with you

But like a lost watch I just never found time
I never had time to tell you the truth

Blow it up and hit the hash like a pound sign
Smoke weed

Smoking shit ain’t enough to make the ground fly
Smoking weed won't change the world

To the Skyfall, I’m 007, call me young Brooklyn
I feel powerful and cool

But I am not Beckham
I am not a soccer player like David Beckham

I just wanna kick it with you, sip a little liquor with you
I just want to hang out with you and drink

No hit and misses going down like you hit a missile
We're going to do this right

Haters gotta hear the whistle ‘cause they dumb balling
People who criticize me will regret it

Took a leap of fate, I’ll call you when I’m done falling
I'm taking a risk and I'll let you know how it goes

You got cold feet while I’m on the sun, walking
You're having doubts while I'm doing well

I give you two cents when our money done talking
I'll give you my opinion on financial matters when we discuss them

We smoke till our vision impaired
We smoke a lot of weed

Everybody put your lighters in the air
Everyone hold up their lighters in celebration
