Every time I set foot in this city of dreams,
it beckons me and, yet, makes me feel like an outsider.
With its tall buildings and crowded roads,
with bridges built on sweat and blood
and empires built on character.
With its sticky wind and fast pace
you try to embrace the city,
but before you know it,
you get entangled
in this city of dreams,
this empire of hope.
