R Kelly - Gotham City Lyrics






I'm looking over the skyline of the city
How loud, quiet nights in the mist of crime
How next door to happiness lives sorrow
And signals of solution in the sky

A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
We all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah

How sleeping awake because of fear (ohh, yeah)
How children are drowning in their tears
How we need a place where we can go
A land where everyone will have a hero (even me)

A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
Cause we all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah

A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
Cause we all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah

Yet in the middle of stormy weather
We won't stumble and we won't fall
I know a place that offers shelter

A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
We all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah

A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
We all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah

A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
We all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah

A Gotham City
(Everybody needs Gotham City)
Gotham City
(Don't you want one, oh yeah)
Come on, come on, Gotham City
(Everybody needs Gotham City)
A Gotham City
(Don't you want one, oh yeah)
[Children sing]

A Gotham City
A Gotham City
A Gotham City

    This guy was my idol in my teenage years. Even change my middle name to Kelly. Don’t judge his work cos all his music are perfect

  17. T.... S....

    The first woman I ever was in love with Michelle Cleveland would ice skate to this song. Even after 16 years I dream I'm about my girl. She was my first love. I'm happily married now, and wouldnt change one thing about my past. As my wife now is my soul mate. You'll never forget your first love. Too Michelle if your still out there I hope you're doing well, and life has treated you great. A beautiful, intelligent, and a angel I needed at that time in my life.

    Carol Goodman yea I committed crimes but rape isn’t a crime. There’s no room in Gotham for that or your delusion. But this nigga got skills.

    C.... G....

    @Frank RawDogg Mathews I don't really know what he is been charged with and if it is as bad as you say it is than yes he should admit to doing wrong, and yes your 100% right.

  22. y.... W....

    I believe RKELLY is a legend and his past coming back to haunt him this is character assassination when they mute orange bozo the clown aka trump and Weinstein Polanski and kevin spacey and woody allen and etc... They are violating his civil rights and constitutional rights Americkkk is sick and fucked uo he needs to be released like jussie smolett
