From "Philly" Single

lyrics

The Hills of Philadelphia,
I fell asleep and then woke up to DVD's their selling yah
just gave a stranger my last dollar

(dis da Hook) Wait for an hour and I'll be right back with that sour D
I got played in Philadelphia

In Philadelphia, i drank upon the wicked cup
Well he threw down but I threw up
AND I DON'T CARE AND I'M NOT SORRY

In Philadelphia
Where Irish guys will yell at yah
and old Black guys will let at yah
and Chinamen hate everybody

(Wait for an hour and I'll be right back with that sour D
I got played in Philadelphia
It;s hard to be black and a scholar where it's hard to stand on the bottom of the water
Me? I'm ashamed of Philadelphia

I slipped the Muslim cash through six inch thick security glass
and we grabbed our bags of snacks and got high under the overpass
and
We climbed the wooden stairs and made pretend they weren't there
Beneath his hidden stare, where everyone hates everybody

(Wait for an hour and I'll be right back with that sour D
I got played in Philadelphia
It's hard to be black on the squalor where it's hard to stand on the bottom of the water
Me? I will stay in Philadelphia
