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)
