City of Gods (Part II) Lyrics

[Chorus]
New York City, please go easy on me tonight
New York City, please go easy on this heart of mine
'Cause I'm losin' my lover to the arms of another
New York City, please go easy on me

[Verse 1]
City of gods, city of dreams
City where nothin' is ever what it seems
They'll never take ya away from me
'Cause I see nothin' but infinity
And I, I will love, I will love you wherever you are
I've been wishin', wishin' on every star
I believe, I believe that you're never far
I'm beggin' you

[Chorus]
New York City, please go easy on me tonight
New York City, please go easy on this heart of mine
'Cause I'm losin' my lover to the arms of another
New York City, please go easy on me

[Verse 2]
Does it ever get easier? Does it ever start?
Does it always end with a broken heart?
Will you ever see me for all that I am?
Have you already given all that you can?
I'm beggin' you

[Chorus]
New York City, please go easy on me tonight (I'm beggin' you)
New York City, please go easy on this heart of mine
'Cause I'm losin' my lover to the arms of another
New York City, please go easy on me

[Bridge]
Don't leave me, go easy
Go easy, go easy
Don't leave me, go easy
Go easy, go easy
Don't leave me, go easy
Go easy, go easy

[Outro]
New York City, please go easy on me (I'm beggin' you)
I'm beggin' you

This is really “ Empire State Of Mind” 2.0 🔥🔥🔥

Nofux

no tf its not bruh grow up

Schoolboy T.R.U.

“Empire State of Mind 2.0” is already a song . This would be the same to “City of Gods” as what “Empire State of Mind 2.0” was to “Empire State of Mind” . They both are somewhat the same , which is probably why she made this .

When I heard New York City by Chainsmokers the first time the lyric was an emotional experience. Instantly loved it! Love what Alicia does with their song too.

True love = the love of God!
God himself went to the cross for you out of love for you as a human being

Philippians 2:5-8
