[Verse 1: Jamie Foxx]
This is just the start of your story
If you got guts you get glory
Anyone can make it, even you
(In New York City)

And now's the time you gotta stand tough
Cause if you work hard you can rise up
Anyone can make it even you
(In New York City)

[Pre-Chorus: Jamie Foxx]
Look at me I'm just blood pumpin
You and me are two hearts thumpin
We are two souls giving the same feed

[Chorus: Jamie Foxx]
So take it all, the city's yours
It's worth fighting for, it's all yours
So take it all, the city's yours
It's worth fighting for, it's all mine
It's all yours
(In New York City)
(In New York City)
(In New York City)

[Verse 2: Jamie Foxx]
So put your gloves start trainin
You gotta get wet when it's rainin
If you got heart you can make it too
(In New York City)

You see what I see look harder
You know we're the same when we start off
Four walks, two heads, one heart paired

[Chorus: Jamie Foxx]
So take it all, the city's yours
Ask it for more, when you arrange a tour
So take it all, the city's yours
It's worth fighting for, it's all mine
It's all yours
(In New York City)
(In New York City)

[Chorus: Jamie Foxx (Quvenzhane Wallis)]
So take it all
(So take it all)
The city's yours
(The city's mine)
It's worth fighting for
(It's worth fighting for)
It's all mine
(It's all mine)

So take it all
(So take it all)
The city's yours
(The city's mine)
It's worth fighting for
(It's worth fighting for)
And all mine
(It's all mine)
It's all yours
In New York City
