Detroit Never Left (Original Score from "Float The Vote: Tell Your Story")

We Detroit, we Detroit (Yo we, yo we)
We Detroit, we Detroit (Yo we, yo we)
We Detroit, we Detroit (Yo we, yo we)
Yo we, yo we, yo we, yo we
We Detroit, we Detroit (Yo we, yo we)
We Detroit, we Detroit (Yo we, yo we)
We Detroit, we Detroit (Yo we, yo we)
Yo we, yo we, yo we, yo we
We Detroit, we Detroit (Yo we, yo we)
We Detroit, we Detroit (Yo we, yo we)
We Detroit, we Detroit (Yo we, yo we)
Yo we, yo yo yo yo yo yo

Yo we never left (Nope)
We was always here (Here)
What you consider theft
We consider fear (Fear)
If you think we less (Less)
Why be mo' sincere
All you do is interfere
Make a mess and disappear
But you know what? (What?)
That was then (Right)
Look at now
Wonder how
We still in
Took a while
For the crown
To be fitted
Kept hangin' around
In the crowd
Just to get it (Get it)
What's

Deep though (Deep though)
Is people (People)
Think so (Think so)
Feeble
Like we owe (We owe)
Our ego (Ego)
To these folk
Please, ima need yal to respect our steez

We that vibe, that hype, that tribe
The type to always stay and fight
From bars to cars and marks and scars
And even though we deserve the stars
We'll settle for sparks

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Okay we the best (Best)
On some Khaled shit
Cuz every single test (Test)
Bet we hit a lick
Cuz we never quit (Quit)
Rebuildin' brick by brick (Brick)
And settin' more than picks
To go to war with pricks
Yea it's Us vs. everybody
Had to learn who we can trust from my nigga Tommey
From 6 mile we Mack proud
Wit a lifestyle, so Belle isle
Home of the blackest fist you'll ever pound (Ooh-wee)

So put some respect on our name
Been through some tough times
Been through so much pain
Don't think that I need to explain
How all of the pressure
Has caused so much strain
Through all of the stressin'
And bouts of depression
We managed to keep ourselves sane
Call it a lesson
Or call it a blessin'
We were never the same
And though it's a shame
To know we got played
Why continue to pass off the blame
When one thing holds true
No matter the proof
We a victim of change
And that's not a deflection
It's just my perception
From all the connections I've made
Betrayed by complexion is
Trifling deception
That utterly fills me with rage
But revenge is not what I'm after, nah
I just want us to turn the page
Cuz when we got through that chapter nine
Believe me that set the stage (Stage)
For a brand new age (Age)
With a lifetime to go (Go)
Ain't gotta imagine the growth
You should already know
Cuz we back off the ropes

We that vibe, that hype, that tribe (That tribe)
The type to always stay and fight (Stay and fight)
From bars to cars and marks and scars (And even though)
And even though we deserve the stars
We'll settle for sparks (Settle for sparks, we'll settle for sparks)
We that vibe, that hype, that tribe (Uh uh)
The type to always stay and fight (Yhat's right)
From bars to cars and marks and scars (Bars and cars)
And even though we deserve the stars
We'll settle for sparks (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Yeah, yeah (Uh uh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Aww yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
