Mark Battles City Of Mine Lyrics


City Of Mine by Mark Battles

This city of mine
Oh, this city of mine
You know I love you
I could never ever trust you
City going crazy while we must do
City of mine
This city of mine

Indianapolis, oh, sweet, Indianapolis
Cause a lot of pain but it's strange 'cause you my happiness
Taught me how to grind, if I need it still won't ask for it
High school homies disappearing and it's not a magic trick
How bad is it? Bad ain't the word
I don't think we lurk birds and it's starting to wreck my nerves
It get crazy in this struggle in this city like a jungle
Athletic or you hustle, sports to keep you out of trouble
Right, at least I pray so
Another killing every day, though
We gotta come together, ain't no telling where we may go
I'm tired of losing friends, we gotta make amends
All this violence need to stop, man, it's time to break the trend
It gotta end and I ain't tryna sound preachy but believe me
I just feel my city need me, come and see, I'm right here
We can do it as a team
I know I'm starting to do my thing but it all started as a dream

This city of mine
Oh, this city of mine
You know I love you
I could never ever trust you
City going crazy while we must do
City of mine
This city of mine

Remember times, we went back at the talents
Honest thought I was Jordan, had dreams of going to college
Promised my sister and my moms I'd stay out the streets
God took your other son so I'mma make you proud of me
They doubted me, that was the push that I needed
Man of my words, if I say it then I mean it
The most dangerous region but taught me how to beat it
'Cause the only thing that help a fire if you try and feed it
They gonna see it, the media don't seem to care
We just gotta be prepared, this can happen anywhere
It ain't fair, it ain't like we got a choice
So let's come together, we can be the voice
If you get it then now you know
Thought dirt was worthless till they seen a flower grow
It's 'bout time we found control and now it's ours
We can never ever let it go, oh

This city of mine
Oh, this city of mine
You know I love you
I could never ever trust you
City going crazy while we must do
City of mine
This city of mine

Indianapolis, I love you
I love you
