Take me back to the city
Yeah call my city where
everybody knows my name
Take me back to the people
That call my people yeah
I'm a long long way
From my city my city
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh
From my city my city
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh
This one goes out to the
ones that feel like an underdog
Used to write me off now
they're changin' up the dialog
Raise a glass to the passin'
all 'em now we're provin' wrong
You can take me out the city
but I brought my fam' along yeah
And the memories
are playin' my head
But I won't let 'em burn me again
I came too far just to let go
Baby I'm comin' back home
comin' back home
Take me back to the city
Yeah call my city where
everybody knows my name
Take me back to the people
That call my people yeah
I'm a long long way
From my city my city
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh
From my city my city
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh
And my city knew my name
before the name came
Livin' in the fast lane
ain't have to change lanes
Had a hoodie on my head
before the rain came
Sometimes family and friends
that's the same thing
I thought I knew all about
pain 'til the pain came
But I'm still in the hall of
fame 'cause I ain't hate the game
Never cared 'bout what it
is or what it was
Never life your life in
fear live in love
For my city shed
tears and shed blood
In my city I lost the ones that I love
Take me back to the city
Yeah call my city where
everybody knows my name
Take me back to the people
That call my people yeah
I'm a long long way
Take me back to the city
Yeah call my city where
everybody knows my name
Take me back to the people
That call my people yeah
yeah I'm on my way
From my city my city
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh
Yeah-yeah-yeah yeah-yeah-yeah
Take me back take me
back take me back
From my city my city
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh
My city my city

Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh
Take me back
