Letra
0:06One two
0:13Yeah uhh yeah
0:19Rough enough to break New York
0:20From long island
0:21Yeah it's the God baby
0:24Long island's own
0:27Barbarian of the microphone
0:29Rough enough to break New York
0:31From long island
0:32And the streets just a couple of miles east of Mecca
0:34Where peeps touch nuttin but style heat and cheddar
0:37Compete witcha livelihood to eat better
0:39And ain't nuttin sweet but the ladies who speak wetta
0:42With a torn smile tryin to get my song on file
0:45It's on now the whole town done gone wild
0:47Kick rhymes off my heartbeat as a unborn child
0:50Then developed a strong style on long isle
0:52Won't be long now I started rhymin young
0:55I designed for fun knowin my time would come
0:58I started payin dues djin with crews
1:00Learnin the inner city rules conveyin the news
1:03Soon as the jam start the man's art'll jam parks
1:06Slam so hard it remains a landmark
1:08The rhyme that I'm stylin
1:10Smooth as a violin
1:11But rough enough to break
1:12New york from long island
1:16Drop and up
1:19Drop and up
1:21Drop and up
1:22And break New York from long island
1:24Like any God loose on a spree for new degrees
1:27Things to do and see un'til nuttin is new to me
1:29A true MC usually be into a breeze
1:32And I can s'till see New York city through the trees
1:34My advance slams put you outside lookin in
1:37Or the other way around that depends look again
1:39Took a pen so you could zero in on my book of gems
1:42It extends from the hamptons to brook-lyn
1:45Through every hoodie in town
1:46To learn the boogie down
1:47'Til every dj around wanted to put me down
1:50Rhymes got rougher 'til I was ready to blast off
1:53And harass all from suffolk county to nassau
1:55Where we keep the money pilin
1:56Keep the honies smilin
1:58Keep the heater just in
1:59Case kids start whylin
2:00The rhyme that I'm stylin smooth as a violin
2:03Rough enough to break
2:04New york from long island
2:08Rough enough
2:11Rough enough rough enough
2:14To break New York from long island
2:19Rough enough
2:21Rough enough rough enough
2:24Rough enough to break New York from long island
2:26Grew up in wyndanch formerly known as crime-danch
2:29Me and my mans we travel lands to find jams
2:32Where violence usually ends in sirens
2:34By all means we all fiend for finance
2:37We make cash on the street called straight path
2:40We take class build with the gods with great math
2:42Everyday true to the street and never fronted
2:45Along the way learned from the best that ever done it
2:47Bein exposed to life's highs and lows
2:50Got my flows ready for shows I'm ready for the pros
2:53I put it on a tape and then the city I tested
2:55Then on the radio the r's requested
2:58Now the whole world's whylin all the girls smilin
3:00You know it's on soon as they let the crowd in
3:03The rhyme that I'm stylin smooth as a violin
3:06Rough enough to break New York
3:07From long island
3:11Rough enough
3:14Rough enough
3:16Rough enough
3:18From long island
