[00:00:03] Produced by：rakim

[00:00:06] One two

[00:00:13] Yeah uhh yeah

[00:00:19] Rough enough to break New York

[00:00:20] From long island

[00:00:21] Yeah it's the God baby

[00:00:24] Long island's own

[00:00:27] Barbarian of the microphone

[00:00:29] Rough enough to break New York

[00:00:31] From long island

[00:00:32] And the streets just a couple of miles east of Mecca

[00:00:34] Where peeps touch nuttin but style heat and cheddar

[00:00:37] Compete witcha livelihood to eat better

[00:00:39] And ain't nuttin sweet but the ladies who speak wetta

[00:00:42] With a torn smile tryin to get my song on file

[00:00:45] It's on now the whole town done gone wild

[00:00:47] Kick rhymes off my heartbeat as a unborn child

[00:00:50] Then developed a strong style on long isle

[00:00:52] Won't be long now I started rhymin young

[00:00:55] I designed for fun knowin my time would come

[00:00:58] I started payin dues djin with crews

[00:01:00] Learnin the inner city rules conveyin the news

[00:01:03] Soon as the jam start the man's art'll jam parks

[00:01:06] Slam so hard it remains a landmark

[00:01:08] The rhyme that I'm stylin

[00:01:10] Smooth as a violin

[00:01:11] But rough enough to break

[00:01:12] New york from long island

[00:01:16] Drop and up

[00:01:19] Drop and up

[00:01:21] Drop and up

[00:01:22] And break New York from long island

[00:01:24] Like any God loose on a spree for new degrees

[00:01:27] Things to do and see un'til nuttin is new to me

[00:01:29] A true MC usually be into a breeze

[00:01:32] And I can s'till see New York city through the trees

[00:01:34] My advance slams put you outside lookin in

[00:01:37] Or the other way around that depends look again

[00:01:39] Took a pen so you could zero in on my book of gems

[00:01:42] It extends from the hamptons to brook-lyn

[00:01:45] Through every hoodie in town

[00:01:46] To learn the boogie down

[00:01:47] 'Til every dj around wanted to put me down

[00:01:50] Rhymes got rougher 'til I was ready to blast off

[00:01:53] And harass all from suffolk county to nassau

[00:01:55] Where we keep the money pilin

[00:01:56] Keep the honies smilin

[00:01:58] Keep the heater just in

[00:01:59] Case kids start whylin

[00:02:00] The rhyme that I'm stylin smooth as a violin

[00:02:03] Rough enough to break

[00:02:04] New york from long island

[00:02:08] Rough enough

[00:02:11] Rough enough rough enough

[00:02:14] To break New York from long island

[00:02:19] Rough enough

[00:02:21] Rough enough rough enough

[00:02:24] Rough enough to break New York from long island

[00:02:26] Grew up in wyndanch formerly known as crime-danch

[00:02:29] Me and my mans we travel lands to find jams

[00:02:32] Where violence usually ends in sirens

[00:02:34] By all means we all fiend for finance

[00:02:37] We make cash on the street called straight path

[00:02:40] We take class build with the gods with great math

[00:02:42] Everyday true to the street and never fronted

[00:02:45] Along the way learned from the best that ever done it

[00:02:47] Bein exposed to life's highs and lows

[00:02:50] Got my flows ready for shows I'm ready for the pros

[00:02:53] I put it on a tape and then the city I tested

[00:02:55] Then on the radio the r's requested

[00:02:58] Now the whole world's whylin all the girls smilin

[00:03:00] You know it's on soon as they let the crowd in

[00:03:03] The rhyme that I'm stylin smooth as a violin

[00:03:06] Rough enough to break New York

[00:03:07] From long island

[00:03:11] Rough enough

[00:03:14] Rough enough

[00:03:16] Rough enough

[00:03:18] From long island

[00:03:21] Rough enough

[00:03:27] Rough enough

[00:03:27] To break New York from long island

[00:03:37] Rough enough

[00:03:38] To break New York from long island

[00:03:42] Rough enough

[00:03:45] Rough rough rough rough

[00:03:47] Rough enough

[00:03:48] To break New York from long island
