I'm a middle -west music man
And I've been to a lot of places,
but I'm gonna end where I began
I took class in Carolina,
And I don't know my name in Paris,
but I'll be bur ied in Detroit
and my father's father too
I used to live in New York City,
but baby that ain't no substitute
I've made love in every city,
but I'll be buried in Detroit
I don't claim to be a prophet,
I travel tell it like it is
and sometimes God makes it right
I like my song tower like my women,
You see I got fucked up in Stockholm,
but I'll be buried in Detroit
and my father's father too
I used to live in New York City,
but baby that ain't no substitute
I've made love in every city,
but I'll be buried in Detroit
always kept it righteous,
knewin' it would come back to me
was outweighin' the strategy
And I'd pray to God, like,
I hope you got a map for me
like, nobody wanted as bad as me
I guess hunger either kill you
Motor City, boy, I been a driver
The young Detroit legend,
I swear I got the city inspired
And bought M .I .L 2 just to solidify it
D -Boy, D -Boy, that's how I was raised
Me an d mine started charity
And take it further than the found
I got carried through the city
I hope I get married in the city
I hope I get buried in the city
you gon' still hear me through the city
