Milford - New York, New York lyrics

[Verse 1: Kid Seuss] Where to begin, I've been gone for a minute Dropped Black Sheep and I felt like I was winnin Pools full of liquor, dove in, went swimmin Then the past caught up, bad days, bad women The truth is everything we went through left me kinda scarred I guess we're both to blame, it's all in how we played our cards Sitting, contemplating, thinking we were doomed right from the start I guess I might be crazy, but that's cause these times are hard For the first time I'm back from the bottom And I came back up just to find I'd been forgotten It hurts when you're kicked to the dirt and you're down Feels like there's nothing that's worth coming back around for They tell me nothing's ever quite as bad as it may seem All these fans supporting, but I'm really just afraid Time to throw those fears away, get back to working on my dreams I want to be a part of it, so I'm leaving today [Hook: Milford] Start spreading the news I'm leaving today I want to be a part of this New York, New York New York [Verse 2: Kid Seuss] Sometimes I just wanna give up and be a villain Sell my soul to Illuminati, blow up, and then make a k**in But what's success when none of your songs have any feelin Don't make music for the money, so just go ahead and steal it They call it the rap game, but the industry's deck is stacked Labels tryna own your life with a pen and a contract Put your name on the dotted, and just like that you've been trapped Pictured myself living this way, and that's why I snapped Now take a look and realize that this song ain't got no swearin I wanted it to be heard by my siblings and my parents I want you all to see this magic trick I've been preparin Are you watching closely, "Abracadabra", now I'm transparent The people I grew up with can't believe how far I've wandered Why can't you just be happy for me, look how much I've conquered I know how it feels to think that you can't take it any longer So now my heart has a badge of honor, it's been through war and it's made me stronger [Hook: Milford] Start spreading the news I'm leaving today I want to be a part of this New York, New York New York
