Take Me Home

Lyrics

[Part I: Take Me Home] [Intro: Jumpsteady] "You know, the irony of life is that you have like this big dream to get where you wanna be, but once you get there you start to dream about where you came from. I guess that's the part of the circle of our lives, like the hands of a clock going 'round. If only we could wind them back and return to a time where the dream began. It's all too soon. That's all we'll be, is a dream in someone's mind" [Verse 1: Violent J & Shaggy 2 Dope] Look at me, I'm famous, on top of the world I finally reached the big time (I'm a superstar) Stand up, step back and take a look Is this really what I had in mind? (I don't really think so) Well I guess them goals that we set in the day They actually came to be (Yup) But now I'm lookin at a blank white paper (Damn) And with a whole book of memories (Only memories) Seven deep in the jeep with the camel top Everybody in it drunk as hell (And we crunk on 'em) Bumpin' Merciless Amir and Awesome Dre And anybody Buy-Rite would sell us ('Cause we always went there) Summers were long, and pollution strong And the Faygo always warm and flat (And that's nasty) But if nowadays supposed to be Heaven for me Then just give me my old Hell back, yeah [Chorus] So take me home (Detroit) To my empty refrigerator (Yeah) Come on and take me home (Oak Park) To hangin' out on the church steps ([?]) Won't you take me home? (Ferndale) To my old-school brown Volaré (Where you at?) Come on and take me home (River Rouge) For what little time I got left (Yeah, come on, come on) (Let's go, y'all) [Verse 2: Violent J & Shaggy 2 Dope] Theres another festival down town Take some bottles back up to the store (I found two of 'em) That would get us bus money down there To get back we have to find some more (Might as well get ten) Hangin' our flyers up everywhere We coulda sworn we was makin' noise (Everybody knew us) When we had everyone in Southwest Representin' with the JJ Boys (And we partied on) I stole to eat (I stole), I stole to live (You stole) I stole only to survive (And you's a hoodlum) Just like J said in "Ghetto Zone" I stole a car with my tape inside (Say What) All we did was try to talk to hoes And none of 'em was tryin' to hear (Not one ho) It woulda meant so much more back then 'Cause now it's fake hoes everywhere [Chorus] So take me home (Yeah) To my empty refrigerator (Come on) Come on and take me home (Picker Forest) To hangin' out on the church steps (Where you at, y'all?) Won't you take me home? (Clark Park) To my old-school brown Volaré (Summer time) Come on and take me home (Del Ray) For what little time I got left (Del Ray, Del Ray) [Bridge: Violent J] Mike P, y'all Southern rock for ya Rude Boy [Verse 3: Violent J & Shaggy 2 Dope] Oh Lord don't let me get my girlfriend's call If she don't get off until two (We got all night long) I finally show up at 4:30 AM And I still have to drop my crew off (But iI'll be back) Now I'm alone and on top of it all Lookin' deep in the back of my mind (Lookin' deep in the back of my mind) I realized the key to a happy life Was right here wit me the whole time [Chorus] So take me home (Detroit) To my empty refrigerator (Yeah) Come on and take me home (Oak Park) To hangin' out on the church steps ([?] y'all) Won't you take me home? (Ferndale) To my old-school brown Volaré (Where you at?) Come on and take me home (River Rouge) For what little time I got left (Yeah, come on, come on) So take me home To my empty refrigerator Come on and take me home To hangin' out on the church steps Won't you take me home? To my old-school brown Volaré Come on and take me home For what little time I got left ([?]) [Part II: The Family Song] [Intro: Jumpsteady & Samantha Bruce] What up everybody I'm here chillin' with Samantha Hi, guys!
