Take Me Home
[Intro: Jumpsteady]
"You know, the irony of life is that you have like this big dream to get where you wanna be, but once you get there you start to dream about where you came from. I guess that's the part of the circle of our lives, like the hands of a clock going 'round. If only we could wind them back and return to a time where the dream began. It's all too soon. That's all we'll be, is a dream in someone's mind"
[Verse 1: Violent J & Shaggy 2 Dope]
Look at me, I'm famous, on top of the world
I finally reached the big time (I'm a superstar)
Stand up, step back and take a look
Is this really what I had in mind? (I don't really think so)
Well I guess them goals that we set in the day
They actually came to be (Yup)
But now I'm lookin at a blank white paper (Damn)
And with a whole book of memories (Only memories)
Seven deep in the jeep with the camel top
Everybody in it drunk as hell (And we crunk on 'em)
Bumpin' Merciless Amir and Awesome Dre
And anybody Buy-Rite would sell us ('Cause we always went there)
Summers were long, and pollution strong
And the Faygo always warm and flat (And that's nasty)
But if nowadays supposed to be Heaven for me
Then just give me my old Hell back, yeah
[Chorus]
So take me home (Detroit)
To my empty refrigerator (Yeah)
Come on and take me home (Oak Park)
To hangin' out on the church steps ([?])
Won't you take me home? (Ferndale)
To my old-school brown Volaré (Where you at?)
Come on and take me home (River Rouge)
For what little time I got left (Yeah, come on, come on)
(Let's go, y'all)
