Days in the D

[Verse] Woke up, Motor City's engine roarin', ain't no silence, Streets filled with shadows, daily acts of defiance, Graffiti paint murals on the cracked brick alleys, Survive and thrive in the rawness, dodgin' daily malice. [Chorus] Days in the D, where the heart stays gritty, Turn a cold corner, always somethin' kinda risky, The hustle never stop, it's a constant grindin' pity, Detroit livin' raw, no lies, just the nitty-gritty. [Verse 2] Burnt-out buildings whisper tales of the past, Old school beats echo, still holdin' fast, Hood politics deep, you can feel the heat, Walk the wrong way, end up caught in the beat. [Chorus] Days in the D, where the heart stays gritty, Turn a cold corner, always somethin' kinda risky, The hustle never stop, it's a constant grindin' pity, Detroit livin' raw, no lies, just the nitty-gritty. [Bridge] Streetlights flicker, casting ghosted glares, In this concrete jungle, beware of the snares, Factory smoke mixin' with the hostile air, In the city of steel, ain't much care or fair. [Verse 3] Fast cars, hard bars, echoes in the night, Pockets tight, but still fightin' the good fight, From the Belle Isle to 8 Mile's stripe, Detroit’s heartbeat raw, the rhyme and hype. [Fake outro] Nah guys, this shit FIRE! [New singer enters] Yo guys, ya forgot me! Detroit, detroit, detroit everyone in this city can be jumped on robbers everywhere, gooners aren't even bare, can't even walk home without a nuke falling here! (haha, great one blud...!)
