East side west side. larcency and homicide. people trying to survive.. Prostitution retribution. toxic waste and air pollution. politics: no solution.. I've come from the other side of town. This concrete jungle's got me down. I feel the heet from the street. Live in the city. die in the city.. Talk is cheap and the air smells shitty.. Laugh in the city. cry in the city.. It's my home but it sure ain't pretty.. Uptown downtown. On the streets and underground. People trying to get around.. Skyscrapers money makers. New York Knicks and L.A. Lakers. One too many circuit brakers.. Live in the city. die in the city.. Talk is cheap and the air smells shitty.. Laugh in the city. cry in the city.. It's my home but it sure ain't pretty..
