歌詞

This is the place where stars are born The Bridge, Queensbridge Y'all niggas love to hear the stories again and again Of how it all got started way back then See it was Marly, MC Shan, the Juice Crew Queensbridge, hip-hop land, those niggas blew up Nobody said it started there But some playa hater tried to end a party there Niggas didn't care they burned it, put it in the air I took it personal readied up for warfare Shit, yeah, what? But time passed by, shit died out But niggas got paid off my hood no doubt Now everybody's rhymin', other hoods start shinin' That's aight 'cuz the Bridge'll keep risin' You love to hear the stories again and again Of how it all got started way back when The Bridge, Queensbridge Screwball drops the illest shit And just when you thought things couldn't get betta Nas dropped Illmatic and let y'all fagots have it He brought the shine back, made the right contact Had the whole world sayin,' "Hey dun, rewind that" (Rewind that) Niggas from every hood felt the new vibe The word spread quick, the Bridge is still live My dun went gold, then he went platinum My niggas Mobb Deep had the streets right after him Oh, my God, shits off the hook now Killing kids in the Bridge carry rap books now Another chapter about to dominate, I guess It's just in our nature, Queensbridge gotta set it straight We on some kamikaze shit, moving at a Cormega pace Infamous Mobb up in this rap race This is the place where stars are born I'ma stay repin' my hood until I'ma dead and gone You still walkin' through life like you was blind Need you a Lucy but you short one dime Damn, thought about it, ten minutes later Bumbed a cigarette going up in the elevator Dead dreams, more than sold You gotta to try and receive ya goal However you do it, however you may Don't never listen to what nobody say But you chose to lead that fate Now you're sucking on a bone When it shoulda been steak (Steak) The whole purpose of the story I told Was mainly to inspire you to reach your goal Stop walking through as you were blind You should reach for your goal 'cuz I'm reaching for mine You love to, you love to
