Empire State of Mind (Live From Allianz Parque Sao Paulo Brazil)

Should we sing another New York song?

Are y'all gonna help me sing tonight?

I need y'all to sing with me tonight

And I want everybody to take your phones, put 'em in the air

I want you to put the lights on your phone

Because this song, this song is our song

It's about hope, it's about faith

It's about never stopping believing in your dreams

This is our song

Ooh, New York

Ooh, New York

Grew up in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenes

Noise is always loud, there are sirens

All around and the streets are mean

If I can make it here, I can make it anywhеre, that's what they say

Seen my facе in lights or my name on marquees found down on Broadway

Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams

Baby, I'm from New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

Talkin' 'bout New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

Nothing you can't do

You're in New York

These streets will make you feel brand new

Lights will inspire you

Hear it for New York, New York, New York

Yeah, I'm out that Brooklyn, now I'm down in Tribeca

Right next to De Niro, but I'll be hood forever

I'm the new Sinatra, and since I made it here

I can make it anywhere, yeah, they love me everywhere

I used to cop in Harlem, hola, my Dominicanos

Right there up on Broadway, brought me back to that McDonald's

Took it to my stash spot, 560 State Street

Catch me in the kitchen, like a Simmons whippin' pastry

Cruisin' down 8th Street, off-white Lexus

Drivin' so slow, but BK is from Texas

Me? I'm out that Bed-Stuy, home of that boy Biggie

Now I live on Billboard and I brought my boys with me

Say what up to Ty Ty, still sippin' Mai Tais

Sittin' courtside, Knicks and Nets give me high-fives

Nigga, I be spiked out, I could trip a referee

Tell by my attitude that I'm most definitely from

In New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

There's nothin' you can't do

You're in New York

These streets will make you feel brand new

Lights will inspire you

Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York

One hand in the air for the big city

Street lights, big dreams, all lookin' pretty

No place in the world that can compare

Put your lighters in the air, everybody say

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

In New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

There's nothin' you can't do

Now you're in New York

These streets will make you feel brand new

Lights will inspire you

Talkin' 'bout New York (Let's go)

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

There's nothin' you can't do

Now you're in New York

These streets will make you feel brand new

Lights will inspire you

Talkin' 'bout New York, New York, New York

In New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

There's nothin' you can't do

You're in New York

These streets will make you feel brand new

Lights will inspire you

Talkin' 'bout my city, New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

There's nothin' you can't do

Now you're in New York

These streets will make you feel brand new

Lights will inspire you

Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York

Yes, Empire!
