lirik lagu subliminal thoughts - home (detroit) (remix)
[intro]:
you are about to witness the very excited story of a city and it’s people. it will be a new adventure that will open new sights
[verse one]:
i was born three hundred years ago, i swear
never thought i’d lose my figure
nowadays i’m best known for cars, plaques, motown and j. dilla
i say my real name is “straight river”
it’s actually french, “détroit”, i bet you ain’t know that did ya?
named in the romance language
now i’m filled with gangstas, hey go figure
favorite color is money green
nickname is the d, favorite number is 313
i break men apart with visions i’ve seen
from rallies of the king to the fall of the ford regime and
once i was needed
now i’m just white and trash like s-m-n
forgive me if i sound a little jaded
but i can’t help the pain and my beauty is faded
from the guns and the drugs of course
my people don’t clap, they just send rounds of applause
standing ovations on any occasion
jeah, you might swear d. wade played here in the way he’s blazin’
once upon a time, i was nothin’ short of amazin’
[hook]:
back in the day i was great
i had ford portrayed known for the great lakes
but present time is a waste
cause the people and the spirit of the city lose faith
back in the day i was safe
no guns
no drugs now my wheels gon’ break
how much more can i take?
screamin’
“is there somethin’ wrong?”
[verse two]:
motor city
dilla ville, home to my heart
a revolution started a spark
ain’t no park where the cypher builds
i was 13 thinkin’ ’bout cadillac wheels
cruisin’ down greenfield
detroit fitted hat turned to the side and chill
mammoth had the deals where we used to pop wheelies and steal
mixtapes out the clinics crates
and break the jakes
home of the great lakes
my first love gave me opportunites to rip mics
respect, pounds and hugs
word got around and i got a little buzz
from ? , where i stack funds
do it once in the booth
the soul of detroit had sucka mc’s spooked
huh, town that show and proves like big proof
and rock city i dwell
motown clientele, i freak gazelle’s well in hitsville
yeah, profit dominate sales
? on my arena when i bust lyrical sh-lls like the young ll
so check me out
[hook]:
back in the day i was great
i had ford portrayed, known for the great lakes
but present time is a waste
cause the people and the spirit of the city lose faith
back in the day i was safe
no guns
no drugs now my wheels gon’ break
how much more can i take?
screamin’
