The City Is Ours
The city is ouuuurs,
The city is ouuuurs
Rollin past graffiti walls
Billboards lighting up the block
Everyone of us on a mission(oh yeah)
Got a whole crew by my side
Cars beep beep when they pass us by
Get ready to get down to business (mmm hmmm)
We go up open the door
All the girls scream
''there they are''
It's packed from wall to wall
And everybody is calling
Here we come
It's almost time
Feel the rush
Now hit the lights
We gonna get it all started
Because the night is young
The light is out the door
Today was crazy but,
Tonight the city is ours
Live it up
Until the morning comes
Today was crazy but tonight,
The city is ouuuurs,
The city is ouuuurs
My my look how we roll
Was it only a month ago
Everybody said we were dreaming(oh ooooh)
Now we're here like
''yeah we told you''
Still far but were
That much closer
And they ain't no way that
Were leaving(oh noooo)
We pull up
Open the door
All the girls scream
''there they are''
It's packed from wall to wall
And everybody is calling
Here we come
It's almost time
Feel the rush
Now hit the lights
We gonna get it all started
(get it started)
Because the night is young
The light is out the door
Today was crazy but,
Tonight the city is ours
Live it up
Until the morning comes
Today was crazy but tonight
The city is ouuuurs,
The city is ouuuurs
We gotta believe
It's destiny coming
So night after night
We'll rock the whole
Place out
As hard as it seems
I know if we want it
Then it's gonna
Happen somehow
Because the night is young
The light is out the door
Today was crazy but,
Tonight the city is ours
Live it up
Until the morning comes
Today was crazy but tonight
Because the night is young
The light is out the door
Today was crazy but,
Tonight the city is ours
Live it up
Until the morning comes
Today was crazy but tonight,
The city is ouuuurs,
The city is ouuuurs,
The city is ouuuurs,
The city is ouuuurs.

A narrativa da música descreve um grupo de amigos que percorre a cidade, passando por paredes grafitadas e outdoors iluminados, indicando uma atmosfera urbana vibrante. A repetição do refrão 'The city is ours' reforça a ideia de posse e controle sobre o ambiente urbano, sugerindo que, naquela noite, tudo é possível e a cidade serve como um playground para as aventuras do grupo. A menção de carros buzinando e multidões aclamando a chegada dos amigos adiciona à sensação de popularidade e aceitação que a banda desfruta.
