New York Confident

Call you out, call your bluff, oh, enough is enough

You can't fake it under all these lights

Gettin' lost in the streets that they say never sleep

So maybe we'll stay out tonight

And I said, "Ooh, let me go"

Ooh, take me home

Some run from themselves, go out west to the plains

Or go north, find a little old cabin in Maine

Gettin' lost, gettin' bored, gettin' hard to explain what you're doing (oh, oh, oh)

Some people love drinkin' sweet tea in the South

Some love skiing tall mountains that I can't pronounce

You know I'm from a place where we get kinda loud to prove it (oh, oh, oh)

Leave you with an impression that's hard to forget

I can't change how they raised me, so New York Confident

Though it might leave a stain, you'll remember my name

When you're lookin' for an honest guy

No one tells you the truth like I thought they used to

Authenticity's hard to find

And I said, "Ooh, let me go"

Ooh, take me home

Some run from themselves, go out west to the plains

Or go north, find a little old cabin in Maine

Gettin' lost, gettin' bored, gettin' hard to explain what you're doing (oh, oh, oh)

Some people love drinkin' sweet tea in the South

Some love skiing tall mountains that I can't pronounce

You know I'm from a place where we get kinda loud to prove it (oh, oh, oh)

Leave you with an impression that's hard to forget

I can't change how they raised me, so New York Confident

If you're gonna say somethin', say it with your chest

I can't change how they raised me, so New York Confident

Oh, you can't say that somethin's better than the best

Oh, they've tried, they can't save me, so New York Confident
