Call you out, call your bluff, oh, enough is enough
You can't fake it under all these lights
Gettin' lost in the streets that they say never sleep
So maybe we'll stay out tonight, and I said

Ooh
Let me go
Ooh
Take me home

Some run from themselves, go out west to the plains
Or go north, find a little old cabin in Maine
Gettin' lost, gettin' bored, gettin' hard
to explain what you're doing
Some people love drinkin' sweet tea in the South
Some love skiing tall mountains that I can't pronounce
You know I'm from a place
where we get kinda loud to prove it
Leave you with an impression that's hard to forget
I can't change how they raised me, so New York Confident

Though it might leave a stain, you'll remember my name
When you're lookin' for an honest guy
No one tells you the truth like I thought they used to
Authenticity's hard to find, and I said

Ooh
Let me go
Ooh
Take me home

Some run from themselves, go out west to the plains
Or go north, find a little old cabin in Maine
Gettin' lost, gettin' bored, gettin' hard
to explain what you're doing
Some people love drinkin' sweet tea in the South
Some love skiing tall mountains that I can't pronounce
You know I'm from a place
where we get kinda loud to prove it
Leave you with an impression that's hard to forget
I can't change how they raised me, so New York Confident

If you're gonna say somethin', say it with your chest
I can't change how they raised me, so New York Confident

Oh, you can't say that somethin's better than the best
Oh, they've tried, they can't save me, so New York Confident
