We Almost Lost Detroit

We Almost Lost Detroit Lyrics

(Esham)
I stay true to my city, now ain't this a pity
Niggaz in my city be actin haciditty they be like damn
That's that nigga who be talked that I'll sh*t
But, um, I'm just a nigga that be kickin the real sh*t
And I don't believe in sh*t I don't see
So don't ask me bout G-O-D cause my religion is reality
Suckas be frontin for nothin, but I'mma get mine
I been kickin some old wicked sh*t, since 89
So you can fear when you hear me if you wanna
I gotta case of paranoia Natas gunnin is comin for ya
Back the f**k up when you see me don't even look my way
Or I'm tempted to f**k up your day, you better pray
Niggaz talk hoe sh*t about me but bring it to my face
And I'mma put yo ass in yo place, b**ch
I represent where I'm from and that's the D-E-T-R-O-I-T
And these motherf**kers kill me

(CHORUS)
"Well we almost lost Detroit"
"How do you get to Detroit?"
"Hey now, wait a minute man you ain't gotta come on like that witcha cat
Ya dig, we was just rappin, you know what I mean man?"

(TNT)
Niggaz just be scared of the wicked sh*t
They ain't feelin it, never understand cause it's the real sh*t
Some suckas hate me cause I'm realer than most
But these chatty niggaz in my city keep playin me close
And motherf**kers spreadin gas up all over town
Every time I come around niggaz wanna be down
100 pennies in your pocket, 40 dog in yo hand
Don't you know you're just a worker and your boss is my man
So get my dick out your hand because I'm down with the real
Ready to Shaquille a nigga, and f**k how you feel nigga
I've been down since D-A-Y O-N-E it's only me
No Jimmy Walker, dynamite TNT
Its real life till I die and real life till I'm dead
And real life is all I ever really truly said
So go ahead with that bullsh*t if you must diss me
I represent the city, but it ain't representin me

(CHORUS)

(Mastamind)
Never thought I'd find myself in the middle of war
With the same niggaz and b**ches I'm tryin to puttin this sh*t down for
Stay true to your city, due to your city you're a star now
But there's a price to pay with your life cause you devlish and wild
Givin a f**k that they sayin that my rappin is wrong
Its just so happens that your deepest fear is a wicked song
I'll bust one for you bust your head and leave you headless
You want me to kick this wicked madness you ain't said sh*t
My mind's about to bust one time, first I'll bust this rhyme
Let me see waht evil's on my mind, niggaz wishin I'm dyin
If I do I'm takin em with me, I'm takin this whole city with me
Underground, fools die from this wicked sound
The ghetto mist is thick so I can't see sh*t
All I hear is clickety-click I gotta get these enemies off my dick
You see they hate me, they want me to die but naw
The day I dropped the Blaz4me's the day I almost lost em all

(CHORUS)
