### Track 11: Back in the City **[Intro]** (ooh-yeah) (ooh-yeah) (ooh-yeah) (ooh-yeah) **[Verse 1]** Now that I'm back in the city, baby Watching how you really feel about it Yeah, you thought I couldn't heal it, heal it Look at me, you know you couldn't cloud it I know you mad that I'm stepping out Watching me, tell me what you mad about? Boy, you ain't living in my head, head, head, head Look at how I'm shining when I'm dressed, dressed, dressed, dressed You thought that you treated me best, baby What you acting stupid for? Catching all my balance, glowing up inside the studio Baby, I just leveled up, so tell me, am I coming through to you? Out in California, you just called me at the wrong time Even after everything you pulled through, oh I could answer that, but then I leave it down, down, down **[Chorus]** Back in your city, back in your space Love to see the look that's on your stupid face Back on the grid, back in the light Owning the pavement every night You see me shining everywhere you go Thought I'd be hiding, but I'm in control Yeah, I'm back in your city, back in your space And you can't even get a taste **[Verse 2]** Now that I'm back in the city, baby Watching how you really feel about it Yeah, you thought I couldn't heal it, heal it Look at me, you know you couldn't cloud it I know you mad that I'm stepping out Watching me, tell me what you mad about? Boy, you ain't living in my head, head, head, head Look at how I'm shining when I'm dressed, dressed, dressed, dressed **[Chorus]** Back in your city, back in your space Love to see the look that's on your stupid face Back on the grid, back in the light Owning the pavement every night You see me shining everywhere you go Thought I'd be hiding, but I'm in control Yeah, I'm back in your city, back in your space And you can't even get a taste **[Bridge]** Did you think that I’d be hiding in the dark? Crying over every little faded mark? No, I'm rolling down the boulevard, window down Wearing your city like a brand-new crown You’re looking at a ghost who took her power back Left your ego sitting on a broken track Yeah, you thought you took my light away, didn’t you? Look at me now… I'm glowing right in front of you. **[Final Chorus]** Back in your city, back in your space Love to see the look that's on your stupid face Back on the grid, back in the light Owning the pavement every night You see me shining everywhere you go Thought I'd be hiding, but I'm in control Yeah, I'm back in your city, back in your space And you can't even get a taste **[Outro]** (ooh-yeah) Yeah, back in your city… (ooh-yeah) Can't even get a taste, baby. (ooh-yeah) You’re just a face in the crowd now. (ooh-yeah) Back in your space… and I’m taking over. *(beat cuts out abruptly on the last word)*
