jay squared - detroit lyrics
(intro by alan watts)
“time is a social inst-tution and not a physical reality. there is in other words, there is no such thing as “time” in the natural world. the world of stars and waters and mountains and clouds and living organisms. there is a such a thing as rhythm. but time as such is a social inst-tution. all those things are social inst-tutions or conventions. the word convention from the latin ‘convenire’ ‘to come together’ ‘to agree about something’ ‘to hold a convention’ and thus of course in it’s deteriorated sense, when we say something is purely conventional, then we need to be taking it seriously.”
[verse 1]
man, man, man, man
why we gotta care about an image?
why you hating homie, ’cause i’m full of fancy pigment?
yeah, that melanin? boy, it got you n-gg-s trippin’
i was on the west of brooklyn
tryna’ equip the chicken to my pocket sp-ce
because a lot of you n-gg-s occupying sp-ce
saying a lot of sh-t, bragging about the dumbest sh-t
black folks is dying, and increasing by the numbers
sh-t, i wouldn’t know what to do
if they tried to get my brother hit
’cause bible bro, i’d let the shotty blow
or the rugar blast
but i ain’t doing that
man, i got to give this love a chance
it’s the only thing i need upon this planet
and i’ve been searching through myself and these ladies
to raise my future grand-babies
[pre chorus]
so if you, got to s-x, on your crush or your bae
wouldn’t you like that? wouldn’t you like that?
so if you, had the chance, that them lives didn’t have
then wouldn’t you fight back? wouldn’t you fight back?
awh, y’all n-gg-s not listening because
[chorus]
ain’t sh-t changed, but the cartier frames
my goons rollin’
pints & 40’s
backwoods of cookie, with the windows open
we straight smokin’
we straight smokin’
backwoods of cookie, with the windows open 2x
[outro]
you are about to witness, the very exciting story of a city and it’s people. it will be an adventure that will open new sights and familiar surroundings. it is a story of a city seeking new horizons in a resolute contest with great challenges. that city is detroit
