Chronic Future - New York, NY Lyrics






Well all these people of the city will keep you in their blind spots
Especially when they know that you're out looking to sign dots
I tried to tell this girl how twisted my mind got
But it's her dream to ride the conveyer belt of that side walk
She's got intentions of being number one
But can she handle rejection in the city of no sun
Where bricks change colors faster than careers do
And few people drive away and like what's in their rearview

New york city's so far away
But i can't wait even for one more day
They say these things come and these things go
But if I don't try I'll never know

She don't care what it takes she knows she's got the ability
And with what her folks make
You know she'd have stability
She just needs to get out there
And step toward her validity
She can't keep dying over this
Because it's just killing me
She's not used to foot steps digging in her chest
High heeled investments and suit's getting undressed
Growing hold and having new recruits become the best
And finding that she's stepped on everyone and no one's left

Well it hurts like walking barefoot on light bulbs
Smashing ideas with open skin
Til' the pearl white dorps of blood turn red
And everyone can tell
That you've worked hard enough
It's time to go
Go get your map and compass and don't listen to them
And don't think about how much time you're fixing to spend
The dirt only ends when the pavement begins
This is your heart your dream
And you're your only friend so go

You can kick the earth as hard as you want
To show your frustration
Or you can get in your car and kick your foot to the gas
And keep accelerating till you hit your destination
So go

    highly underrated! I got their cd when I was 13. This was my favorite song. Guess what, I actually ran away to New York City at 15 listening to this song. xD Maybe not the best influence but this album fed my adventurous soul.

  11. C.... R....

  21. G.... H....

    judging by the views on this, this is a really under appreciated song

  22. J.... H....

    This song literally makes my eyes swell up with tears. I got no idea why. Maybe because I'm not in new york anymore with the one chick i know who's riding the conveyor belt of that sidewalk.

  23. J.... ....

    Just got my copy today, had to go through amazon. miss these dudes they should play coachella

  24. b.... w....

    The start of this song, is the best song start EVER.

  25. P.... ....

  27. X.... ....

    @Heib1 Well if that isnt creepy...

  28. S.... ....

    @Kyubi986 I'm probably going to regret asking this. How exactly did you drop your phone in the toilet?

  29. H.... ....

    I wanna make sweet sweet love to this song.

  30. J.... ....

    0 dislikes.. nuff said<3

  31. U.... ....

    literally just found out about this band today at hastings

  32. A.... D....

    they changed their damn genre

  33. E.... ....

    my bro had the cd, and i stole it from him!! i love all there songs and i especially love the beginning of this one.....

  34. N.... b....

    Do they have an instrumental?

  35. O.... ....

    @StandardsDT true true Lines In My Face was basically none the less there best stuff yet and some of the best original sounding stuff going around at that time and even now it still is.. but there very first EP was really really good as far as i remember. this ep.. ehh. theres to much of that tech mixed stuff these days. ive seen Mike Busse's solo stuff... and he's still pretty amazing as usual but never the same as he was in CF for sure.

  36. O.... ....

    its a major shame that these guys disappeared of the music scene.... i miss them so much. they deserve a good shot in the spotlight. CF will be big one day id that happens. (:

  37. v.... ....

    @Atergia same here I dont know what it is about this song it is just amazing

  38. A.... ....

    My favorite CF song by far. though i love all their music
