New york - just like I pictured it - skyscrapers and everything   Inna city love, you crushed me into a pulp - I trusted you      When I loved you from a distance   And your skyline made me a promise   In my safe world to be somebody   In your city to own your streets   Where I'd strut covered in money   Shattered dreams. it ain't funny      Now I look at you with tears in my eyes   The good the bad the ugly   As I start to cry I search for the sky   Taste the breeze and watch a block of docking clouds, they're coming.      Chorus:   Inna city mamma   You bore another child to be victim of   Your cold blooded ways   Inna city love   From the gutter   So destructive when you sing your blues      I want to love you baby   I don't mean maybe baby, but I need everything you got   You can't break your promise      I'm inna city hunger, you think you're tough I'm stronger   If you're weak I'll eat you up   I'm gonna touch you where you've never been touched before   And by your spine I'll bruise your veins and touch your very core   Let my concrete be your red carpet   My shooting galleries your personal starship   Give me all your dreams, this city loves you      Use my roots to deliver your body   Under my skies where you make your money   You rejected love, but this city loves you      Chorus:      Inna city love, inna city mamma, inna city love   You hurt me - real bad - inna city love   You meant to love me and you cut me up into too many little pieces   But I wanna love you   I trusted you and you crushed me into a pulp   Inna city mamma
