The City

I'm begging, I'm begging, I'm begging

I'm begging you, please stay

'Cause that city, that city, that city

That city won't treat you my way

And I'm hoping your Uber breaks down

On the way as it speeds to our place

'Cause when you head downtown

And they turn you around

This will just be your place

So we keep holding on

You had me all along

There's no love in the city

Just lights looking pretty

So don't run to the city

There's no love in the city

There's no love in the city

Just some lights looking pretty

So don't run to the city

There's no love in the city

Our history isn't the best

Let's not let it repeat, aye

I don't wanna wake up to photos

Of you with the new date

'Cause last time this happened

I ended up snapping

And things turned sideways

Stayed up 'til the morning

I slept by the door and showed up the next day

So we keep holding on

You had me all along

There's no love in the city

Just lights looking pretty

So don't run to the city

There's no love in the city

There's no love in the city

Just some lights looking pretty

So don't run to the city

There's no love in the city

(Cop lights, that eviction notice in sight)

(Don't waste our time on one night downtown)

(Overpriced, converse at night 'cause I'll fight)

(Don't waste our time on one night downtown)

There's no love in the city

Just lights looking pretty

So don't run to the city

There's no love in the city

There's no love in the city

Just some lights looking pretty

So don't run to the city

There's no love in the city
