LyricMeaning

Anywhere But Here (Instrumental)
Killer Mike

Moving through New York City in a black seven fifty

Like Batman moving through Gotham

Dodging pot holes as I gently move

Through Harlem with my wheels on slalom

Pain in my eyes as I'm passing the place

Where they found Sean Bell and they shot him

Forty one times, he committed no crime

But I guess life ain't Times Square

But in the city that's gritty where the bottom is shitty

Where the mayor's a billionaire

You learn Manhattan keep on making it

And Brooklyn, keep on taking it

Cause life just ain't that fair

For the kids in the park, watching out for the Narcs

Putting Sour Diesel in the air

Trying to flip them a pass, that they got a couple back

And make them get the hell out of here!

Let the city peel away right from under you

There are too many clouds in the sky

I can hear them calling out to me

I can hear them calling out

Let the city peel away right from under you

There were too many ghosts in this town

I can hear them calling out to me, out to me!

Let the city peel away

There are too many ghosts in this town

I can hear them calling out to me, out to me!

I maneuver through the ATL in a black SL

With the goddess of a black female

This is black male Heaven with the ballers are professing

But to me home feels like Hell

Even though it's black cops from the mayors to the top

Black blood still gets spilled

They raided a house, no drugs were ever found

But a black grandmother laid killed

Like the dream of the King when the sniper took his life

On the balcony of Lorraine Motel

From now forthward, these young black boys

Seem to self-sabatoge they selves

Or maybe they're just smart, and they choose to go hard

Cause they know the good guy will fail

So you ask what happens to a dream deferred

Langston, well it kills itself (Atlanta)

Let the city peel away right from under you

There are too many clouds in the sky

I can hear them calling out to me

I can hear them calling out

Let the city peel away right from under you

There are too many clouds in the sky

I can hear them calling out to me

I can hear them calling out

Anywhere but here
