Brooklyn
Sonnie Carson Lyrics

Hello nigga, blue tapin' and make green
I greet you, my friend, the cunning game of making money through drug dealing.

You ain't really that much I can't see
I'm not fooled by your exterior and see right through you.

So I will scream somewhere from this dirt
I will voice my dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs from this disadvantaged position.

One hand over, the other on 6.30
I am fully alert and ready for anything.

Murder, murder, yeah, I know the feeling
I am familiar with the feeling of violence and death.

You're meditating
You seem calm and collected in the face of danger.

Yeah, I've been feeling shit
I have been experiencing difficult times.

You need a phone check-up
You should double-check your phone for any potential tracing or surveillance devices.

Got those days
I have had difficult days

'You want everything in a Chico
You are greedy and want everything.

Put my name on 'and Billboards
I want my name to be famous and prominently displayed.

And hang it with some pimps and real whores
I want to associate myself with people who are known for being successful and wealthy.

They'll think that I kill folks
People will assume that I am dangerous and capable of murder.

It's all about Brooklyn, baby
This song is dedicated to my hometown of Brooklyn.

Brooklyn is my house and I'm the fresh green from it
I am born and raised in Brooklyn and represent the new talent hailing from the area.

You're turning brown you need some belle air
You're in need of some change or fresh air.

'All gone
I have nothing left.

Did you go, did you smoke my money?
Did you use or spend all of the money I gave you?

Troubles are on blow
I am dealing with many issues.

All I got is a hundred dollar bill
I only have one hundred dollar bill to my name.

If you ain't talking money then you got to chill
If you're not discussing ways to make money then you need to relax.

'I know how to step
I have the skills and know-how to succeed.

I still made you without a budget
I was able to create something amazing without spending much money.

We like to think is'
We like to believe that we are invincible and nothing can stop us.

'We don't want the corner
We want to control and dominate the entire street.

We are taking the whole street
We are ambitious and have big plans to take over.

And I'm looking like something you can't fit
I am successful and cannot be contained or limited.

Gangsta, gangsta, tell me how you do it?
Can you please tell me your secrets to success, fellow gangster?

You are running through the city
You are moving quickly and efficiently throughout the city.

Like really it ain't nothing to it
What we're doing is actually quite easy.

'Tell me what you call that?
How would you describe our actions?

Anybody get it
Does anyone understand what we are doing?

Who wants it?
Who is willing to fight for what we want?

Yeah, that Brooklyn bullshit
That's what we call the tough, gritty, and determined attitude we have in Brooklyn.

We're on it
We are actively pursuing our goals and not giving up.
