Lyrics A New York Minute - Nejma Nefertiti

A moon shines in Brooklyn pulling at my tide
Walking down the dark streets at night she's always by my side
Looking at me with that watching eye she never turns away
Yet disappears so I can long for her yet another day

A moon shines in Brooklyn pulling at my tide
Walking down the dark streets at night she's always by my side
Looking at me with that watching eye she never turns away
Yet disappears so I can long for her yet another day

Brightens up every dark room she shines even through the blinds
Read between the signs walking fine lines in the crown of crimes
Counting dimes to make a dollar crook scholars in hood impalas
In a New York Gonzales concrete cosmopolis
Where Gods live in hell bloody meadows where we dwell
Doing anything and everything to make the pockets swell
I'm from the dark ages we mark pages with biblical pens
Embark phases and spark stages with lyrical gems
The coldest winters eva Sista Souljah told us better
Sex, currency, power, control, greed, bodies sold
To the lowest bidder love is not a goal considered
On the corner battling convincing cats my flow is bigga

A moon shines in Brooklyn pulling at my tide
Walking down the dark streets at night she's always by my side
Looking at me with that watching eye she never turns away
Yet disappears so I can long for her yet another day

A moon shines in Brooklyn pulling at my tide
Walking down the dark streets at night she's always by my side
Looking at me with that watching eye she never turns away
Yet disappears so I can long for her yet another day

Death the most extreme example had more than a handful
Beauty, lust, gossip building another war and scandal
Cycle of poverty getting away with robbery
Living on stolen land ain't none of it your property
Some get the luck of the draw but never played the lottery
There's no equality the underdog is the majority
Looking for the next best thing the new commodity
No respect for craft or real talent yea it bothers me
The bottomless snake pit where the dollar be what a mockery
Fuck the monstrosity called democracy we want sovereignty
The protagonist advocate naturalist making classic hits
The activist no coincidences or accidents I'm the catalyst
Extravagant nah ya'll just inadequate I'm passionate
The graduate call me Dr. Nefertiti the analyst
The scent of cannabis feeling nothing but glamorous
The ancestress speaks to me through the smoke with candles lit

A moon shines in Brooklyn pulling at my tide
Walking down the dark streets at night she's always by my side
Looking at me with that watching eye she never turns away
Yet disappears so I can long for her yet another day

A moon shines in Brooklyn pulling at my tide
Walking down the dark streets at night she's always by my side
Looking at me with that watching eye she never turns away
Yet disappears so I can long for her yet another day
