Built This City Lyrics

Artist: The Diplomats
Album: Diplomatic Immunity

We built this city
We built this city
We built this city
We built this city on rock

We built this city
On these blocks we hustle
We built this city on rock
On rock
We built this city
Turn bricks to whips
We built this city on rock and roll
We built this city
In the mist of the struggle
On rock
We built this city
From bottom to top
We built this city on rock and roll
Through the agony pain diplomatic we reign

Jim Jones
A yo my DIPSET Taliban
We on these streets like the wars on the streets in Afghanistan better yet of Pakistan
To America, Harlemâ‚¬â„¢s Al Qada any problem Iâ‚¬â„¢ll spray ya not the star or the mayor
But in this 50 block radius, lets get the rock and shave this sh** or get the glock and blaze this sh**
Bit**** get the cock and savor it
They say Jim Jones the Capo my favorite
(Fu****s. Letâ‚¬â„¢s get it right, sh**)
Hereâ‚¬â„¢s some of the sh** my city wasnâ‚¬â„¢t built up over
Drugs, money, some sh** youâ‚¬â„¢ll get killed up over
Slumped on ya wheel straight tilted over
Trust me dog in seen it in plural
N****z wasted , then painted and seen on a mural
In this apple of mine is rotten, dill
Yap up ya shine, clock shot thatâ‚¬â„¢ll crack up ya mind
Cops rocks and cook that crack up to dimes
New York City the capital of crime

We built this city
From the packin and stackinâ‚¬â„¢
We built this city on rock
On rock
We built this city
From the scramblinâ‚¬â„¢ and gamblinâ‚¬â„¢
We built this city on rock and roll
We built this city
From the packinâ‚¬â„¢ and stackinâ‚¬â„¢
We built this city on rock
On rock
We built this city
From the scramblinâ‚¬â„¢ and gamblinâ‚¬â„¢, blaminâ‚¬â„¢ the cannon at ya face mutha
We built this city on rock and roll (Santana the Great)

Juelz Santana
Now once again itâ‚¬â„¢s Santana the Great
I built this city of hammers and weight
Gasoline rope, bandanas and tape
Lots of fiends, lots of coke being handed away
You know the usual
Shut emâ‚¬â„¢ down, set up shop, how we usually do
Cut emâ‚¬â„¢ down, dead the block, man we movinâ‚¬â„¢ through
Diplomats is the strongest force
On and off the court we ball its more than sport
(Muthaf****. Itâ‚¬â„¢s Santana n**** come on)
We built this city from ground zero the spittinâ‚¬â„¢ the pound zero
Brown pistol at cha get down kiko
Yeah this is from the ground up N****
So get ya weight and ya pounds up n****
Cuzâ‚¬â„¢ when itâ‚¬â„¢s beef my homies mound up quicker,
Spit the pound much quicker, lay you down much quicker
You never been approached by golden eagles
Vultures thatâ‚¬â„¢ll scope and feed you, no corpse, just leave you
(Sh** you know)

We built this city
On blood sweat and tears
We built this city on rock
On rock
We built this city
We gonâ‚¬â„¢ make it to the top
We built this city on rock and roll
We built this city
On blood, swear and tears
We built this city on rock
On rock
We built this city
Blood sweat and tears
We built this city
Through the trials and tribulations we gonâ‚¬â„¢ make it through the years come on

Hell Rell
Itâ‚¬â„¢s like what I wouldnâ‚¬â„¢t do for a buck
My enemies canâ‚¬â„¢t rest in piece Jones we shoot they funerals up
New gangstaâ‚¬â„¢s in the city b**** ring the alarm
All you hoes bow down kiss the ring of a don
Itâ‚¬â„¢s about to get real big playa, humunguos
Stack money so long, till it grew fungus
We was gonâ‚¬â„¢ let you live unitl you through punches
Now itâ‚¬â„¢s got to get critical and we got to get rid of you
And we the most talked about, the most popular
We live by the code we the DIPSET Mafia
You never know whoâ‚¬â„¢s watchinâ‚¬â„¢ ya
You never know whoâ‚¬â„¢s plottinâ‚¬â„¢ to pop at cha
We focus like a pair of binoculars
Im bout to get gritty.
M5, CLK garage look like alphabet city
And Iâ‚¬â„¢m a hustla, I put cracks in communities,
Cops canâ‚¬â„¢t touch me, got Diplomatic Immunity
Now drop emâ‚¬â„¢, guaranteed a million shipped and scanned
If not back to the block, shifts and grams

Cam
If not get wit Cam
I got clips that lift the vans. Flip it fam
Sh** they can kick the can
This cat think he sling cause he gotta pinky ring
Rinky dink diamonds they donâ‚¬â„¢t even make ya pinky bling
(We built this city) And now Iâ‚¬â„¢m gonâ‚¬â„¢ kill the city
(We built this city) Crib for 50, yeah Iâ‚¬â„¢m actinâ‚¬â„¢ real sadity
(We built this city) Cause I collect mills in 50
(We built this city on rock) For real itâ‚¬â„¢s pretty and yaâ‚¬â„¢ll gon feel the pity

We built this city
On blood sweat and tears
We built this city on rock
On rock
We built this city
We gonâ‚¬â„¢ make it to the top
We built this city on rock and roll
We built this city
On blood, swear and tears
We built this city on rock
On rock
We built this city
Blood sweat and tears
We built this city
Through the trials and tribulations we gonâ‚¬â„¢ make it through the years come on

We built this city
On these blocks we hustle
We built this city on rock
On rock
We built this city
Turn bricks to whips
We built this city on rock and roll
We built this city
In the mist of the struggle
On rock
We built this city
From bottom to top
We built this city on rock and roll
Through the agony pain diplomatic we reign

We built this city
We built this city on rock
We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll

We built this city
We built this city on rock
We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll
