Lyrics
0:00The City - Wu Tang Clan
0:01That's black What up God
0:05Aiyyo Shorty got beef with that ni**a Word
0:11Oh sh*t yo hold the f**k up
0:13Aiyyo yo eight niggaz down
0:14F**kin' around with my sound
0:16Yo bring backup
0:19F**kin' with me and mine murderous
0:26Check it yo the world is shifty we livin' just enough for the city
0:30The rough witty killa bee sting just like the jiggy
0:33My Family Stone foes attempt to gradually clone
0:35Label them my anus and the casualty's home
0:37It glows coffin Wu stormin' like the light brigade
0:40Ride the wave like Frankie Avalon as I decipher AIDS crime pays
0:43The law's long arm be tryin' to strong arm walkin' time bombs
0:46Before I bomb firearm the calm smoker I hit the dread with a poster
0:50He toke with his own love and expose the black toaster
0:53Composer was shook I took your bad looks for joke
0:56Get your back broke deep throat this murder I wrote
0:58The antidote be seekin' like a buried treasure
1:01By every measure lethally inject your whole sector
1:03Wanted dead or alive rebel I escapes across the desert sand
1:07Leavin' no footprints to trace keep a war face in your place
1:10Conceal the baby knives on the North breaks
1:12I still shine in shady times
1:18Yeah yo we livin' just enough
1:22Just enough just enough for the city
1:29Yo in the jungle I make moves like Iron Monkey
1:32Plots to bump me off D O T be on the hunt for me
1:35We stay hungry for money drugs and guns
1:37Ones who fake get caught in the crossfire for crumbs
1:39Know the science be my Goddess
1:41The facts tell gats sell like sex and violence
1:43And break the project silence a vision
1:45This is way beyond four corners escape this mental prison
1:49Before we're all goners now embrace the world
1:51For the world war is ocean bomber visionary soldier comma
1:54My code of honor mind still start from the drama
1:57Trauma sent the victim witness them run scream in horror
2:00Military chopper come gun down the slum
2:03The outcome do or die son it's bound to come
2:05Mentally aware I see truth within the square
2:08The future's here catch me on computer software
2:10Warfare's inevitable rebel I hold several government official
2:14It's a thirty-eight special that steps through
2:17Like Nat Turner create a spectacle
2:18I may die in the scuffle but I'm takin' forty devils
2:31We livin' just enough
2:34Just enough just enough
2:39For the city
2:44Killa beez sting Mcez yeah Wu
