[Verse 1] Two trains deep, my coat got rain Suitcase dreams and a borrowed name Mama said, "Go, don't play it safe" I chased that glow through a tenement gate Corner store bread, hot sauce, same plate Counting up time on a metal fire escape Every brick knew my footsteps well Every locked door had a story to tell [Pre-Chorus] Now I can taste it Right in the air All of this pressure Turned into prayer [Chorus] City dreams, city dreams We were born for the scene City dreams, city dreams Hands up, live the dream City dreams, city dreams Make the block believe City dreams, city dreams Say it like me [Verse 2] Old gym bag, but the fit too clean New day shining on the same old seam I seen shy kids turn to kings Seen broke hearts buy bigger things Backseat laughs with a full cup high Talk big plans while the taxis fly If the whole world sleep, we stay awake One more move, one more break [Pre-Chorus] Now I can taste it Right in the air All of this pressure Turned into prayer [Chorus] City dreams, city dreams We were born for the scene City dreams, city dreams Hands up, live the dream City dreams, city dreams Make the block believe City dreams, city dreams Say it like me [Bridge] From the stoop to the skyline From the doubt to the shine We were never lost Just waiting on our time [Chorus] City dreams, city dreams We were born for the scene City dreams, city dreams Hands up, live the dream City dreams, city dreams Make the block believe City dreams, city dreams Say it like me
