lirik lagu speed on the beat – hello baltimore (re-visitation rights)

[verse one: speed on the beat]
hello, baltimore look at me now
stand proud with resounding sounds of the drums, the br-ss…
playing like i’ve finished the mission. but the true finale?
still ’bout to come on
gave you the commercial break, after the prelude
the exodus to greatness begun anew
and i know that i never would’ve have made it without you
i know you see me now, wbal (eleven)
i’m still on your side through heaven and hell (you know it!)
and if you can’t see that, i feel bad for you (i do!)
but i don’t ever fau-u-u-lt you. (i don’t!)
sticking out, sore thumbs
from plugging up the empty holes
that my predecessors left when they left from here
because you didn’t think they’d be more
than regional successes, and truthfully, some were only that
and i’ve already got some progress, even if it isn’t on these words
and these beats, because i made it out
but, i still got love for these streets
i mean that literally and figuratively
because baltimore, it made me, and baltimore? it raised me

[hook: speed on the beat]
makes no difference where i go
you’re the best hometown i know
hello, baltimore! sotb!!! loves you
yes, i do…
from the castle on the hill down to orioles park
from the science center, to fort carroll
hello, baltimore! hello, baltimore!
sotb!!! loves you…

[verse two: speed on the beat]
the proposition of what i’m missing is crazy as (ugh)
i love baltimore, but i didn’t want to come back
but, i seemed to lose my mind, a couple months ago
so, now i’m here working on me, before i collapse
the mission, simple really, make sure i can’t ever crack
hardboil myself until the shell withstands attacks
from bats, and gats, that strive to put my front in my back
and mental lapses, i don’t ever wanna do that
again. probably lost kel. who knows? we’ll see
but, for now, i’ve got to go and go and focus on me
if i ever want a hope of a happy family
and if she’s listening, ms. raquel b., know that i’m sorry
that’s why i went back where i started from!
so i could be a better man, a better father for my sons
i just hope the love we had, it wasn’t a dream
so, one day we can reconcile again, and make life seem serene

[warped instrumental bridge]

[verse three: speed on the beat]
i said on good feeling, mental illness is a (ugh)
but i couldn’t put her to sleep, before she tried to finish
me, but i still stand tall, picking up all the pieces
to restore the peace in this, peaceless treason
i’ve committed against my family, sanity was unraveling
had to be restrained to regain some sort of humanity
but i am only human, i know the error of my ways
and i’ll live with this pain, until my friggin’ dying days
that’s why i came back here, and my family is splintered
i would nail it back together but it was bent beyond recognition
seeped in hellish intentions. she said i was the devil
but that good speed’s still in here! just like you he took shelter
when the insanity took over, but now he’s full-on back
back on the medication, and never touching the jack
or the henny. and the therapists? they’re helping me
so, thank you baltimore, for being there for me and caring for me…
in my time of need. and raquel b? i hope that you see…
that i’m never, ever going down that path again, lady…
i just want my family back, baby…
