I know that I'm probably a little bit late for your taste
But I thought that I should say that
I'm so sorry for the worry I've been causing you
I swear I didn't mean a thing
But I’ve been doing pretty swell
Been living like a king
Been cool with everything
Been thinking that it's 'bout that time that I should let you know
I'm never gonna come back home again
I'm never gonna feel that low again
It's nothing that you ever did wrong, it's just
I found a place to call home
I'm finally somewhere that I have to be
Where I’ve been living peacefully and happily
To paradise out of a catastrophe
And I feel worthwhile now
’Cause the city never lets me down
So when you're feeling low
Or so damn distant and broken and lonely, just know that you’ll never be alone
There's places you can go, people you should know
You don't have to do anything or be anyone, just follow the road
(All you need to do is call me)
(And I'll take Kenilworth Avenue to 193)
(And we can get fries under dark stormy skies)
(And we’ll run thunder and lightning away)
(Googling how much rollercoasters cost)
(So someday I can build a Gami Gang theme park)
(In my backyard, get sponsored by NASCAR)
(It shouldn't be that hard of a thing to do)
(Never gonna come back home)
(But it's not that easy)
(I think I'm starting to like myself)
(I think I'm right where I need to be)
(To be the best version of myself)
(To be the version I want you to see)
(I hope you know)
(Everything you do is special to me)
(You're my skeleton key)
(The city's never far away, I'm telling you)
(I know that you won't be the same, the same)
(Whoa, oh, oh)
(I feel so lost, without a plan or a purpose)
(A cent or a dollar or even a cause)
(I know where I need to go to feel better)
(Somewhere that I know that I'll always belong)
The city never lets me down
No, oh
The city never lets me down
No, oh
The city never lets me down
No, oh
The city never lets me down
No, oh
You'll have to see
There's just something in the air up here
There's just something in the air
You'll have to see
There's just something in the air up here
