Almost Lost Detroit

Lyrics

Yeah, yeah.. This one, it's for my city When J Dilla passed, the city lost a gem we could never get back Put Detroit on the map, showed the world we were super, In our eyes you'll always be the best producer We lost a little steam, but we getting back to it I know you so proud of everything Black's doing. When we lost Big Proof, we still pay homage when we get in the booth And I know I got something in common with you I too like the girls, the girls that go oooh You was Em hype man, a part of D12 But you still gave back to anyone who needed help When Icewood died, we should have turned 7 mile into Icewood drive You was a street lord, living by the street laws Lost another soldier to these crazy street wars You music lives on, it bangs on your block I pray every day for the violence to stop When we lost Baatin, SV ain't lose a member, they lost a friend You had your own style it was just for you You ain't care what they thought, you just did you And I respect that, cause you didn't conform You were the life of the show every time you performed When Hex went down, I rushed right to his side when it all went down (When hex went down, I rushed) When Hex went down, I rush right to his side when it all went down I'm thinking to myself anybody but him He's the heart of the city can't live without him He was superman they said death was near He gave death the middle finger, I ain't going nowhere When me and K started beefing It shouldn't have got out, we should have kept it a secret But we didn't, other people got involved At the end of the day I admit I was wrong But the past is the past you can't get nothing back At the end of the day I just want my brother back (We had a few tragedies in our city, but they only made us stronger. We gotta start sticking together, like the other cities do)
