[Verse 1]
Grew up in this city, it’s rain city
The sun don’t shine but it’s still very pretty
Repping for my city sea town stand up
Detox in the building show me some love
Urban, heart of the city, we do this
I don’t spit all these words and not live it
Macklemore and Gowe thanks for the bleeding
For this town and place, lemme do the same leading
No South Beach for me, no OKC for me
Stay here with my body down on my knees
I pray for these people that they will see
Although we got some things going on hopefully they will see
Me and God, partners in life, now let’s live it
I bleed it, I do this for the town, I rep it
116 unashamed that’s what I’m on right now
Put up your fists and let me know if you’re down
Although I’m always walking dead I feel alive
For the first time striding through to survive
Buying products and food for the family
Now that’s the life I’m living I ain’t fashionably
But I am fashionably, just not what you think
Looking at the cracked image at the sink
Blink of an eye I might be gone ah yeah
But my presence lives in this place so yeah
Always feeling out of place in a different place
Sometimes I hate this place it’s a bittersweet taste
Can’t find myself repping my music anywhere else
Bring that bible belt in, forget about the wealth
The colors I bleed, although I always feel the rain
The pain goes away for a little leaving stains
Not too familiar with the place more in the hood
Yeah, I wanna show people around if I could
Mariners pitching and hitting we got that home run
This is my home run the place where I run back
Always tired and stressed when I look outside
Making me angry and aggravated seeing outside
My outside in ruin, my inside in ruin, man
Please I pray that my city will take me as I am
I have my own preferences I am but a bridge
Gapping all cultures together so they can live
Don’t mistaken me for another type of person
I’m me only me this is Detox I’m not worthless
Beacon Hill in the SCAC church I go to
Sunday afternoon fatigue is what I’m going through
Picture of the paint, splashes on the ink pen
The beauty of this place is deep within its root stem
Ten claps maybe more for this loyal city
Rain city I love you all hope you guys feel for me
I’m just tryna get better for the Lord and this city
Please if I disappoint you all don’t get angry
Sports raging and we got ourselves a fight spirit
Diversity mastermind in the making with his lyrics
I hope to give you the world and my vision
In your Facebook posts and twitter feed mentions
I hope to connect, I hope they recognize me
I hope we can all connect together and work
Space jams I be beating and hitting all summer
I just can’t enjoy the sun after all of the winter
I hope people can recognize that I ain’t fussing
I hope people can recognize I’m just letting
Let it all out, it’s been a long time coming
Uh, way too long that there’s no loving
If anyone asks me to live somewhere sunny
I tell em that I already grew and got used to rain city
