magestik legend – detroitmental lyrics
[verse 1]
my detroit, much deafening what they rap about
my detroit, much deafening, what you know about?
it’s more than homeless people and drug dealers
abandoned homes, ruined p-rn and k!llers
i am not living off the cold signs and eminem
i am not living off the cold signs and k!llers
all those didn’t use this beat ’cause it sounds like ’em but
cops make their whole career from sounding like ’em but
once them cold signs wear off you old news
from joe clews, from john doe’s with no proves
when i was young the hip-pop shock was smacker
i was too young to cl!ck up with those crews
when i was young it was hip-hop and hardcore
rap in the street sh-t was on the radio
now the hardcore rap n-ggas is hip-hop
’cause they won’t play their sh-t on the radio
you see the hardcore rappers used to diss my crew
’cause we was hip-hop rocking at the festival
instead our crowds only had a bunch of white boys
’cause we was getting money rocking international
and now they getting money rocking international
and they crowds got a whole buncha white boys
i seen it all go down
the scene changed like it’s changing now
(what up white boys? what up my n-gga?)
now the young artists holding the crown
the og’s need to hold them down
now the young artists holding the crown
the og’s need to hold them down

detroit is on my mind
i know i say it all the time
when we get the lime they always talk about the crime
motown, motown
(i’ma cool down, my n-gga, i’ma cool down)
detroit is on my mind
i know i say it all the time
when we get the lime they always talk about the crime
motown, motown
detroit is on my mind
[verse 2]
i’m so hot, [?]
that’s when i left the womb
apartment bed, baby late
momma worked, daddy worked
daddy teach, momma teach
grandma baked, basic me
grandma’s hands helped me sleep
momma’s hands helped me slept
they worked seven days a week
just to keep the door keys
just to make me feel sleek
never slain, get no keys
just to keep the lights on
just so i would sing my song
just to keep the lights on
[hook]
detroit is on my mind
i know i say it all the time
when we get the lime they always talk about the crime
motown, motown
detroit is on my mind
i know i say it all the time
when we get the lime they always talk about the crime
motown, motown
[verse 3]
this is what we need
to make ends meet let us
pray this week just to
make next week
this is what we need
to make ends meet let us
pray this week just to
pray next week
so many success stories never told out loud
but i’m here for the glory, i’ma rap motown
so many success stories never told out loud
but i’m here for the glory, i’ma rap motown
i’m here for the glory, i’ma rap motown
