lyrics

Waking up everyday
It’s the same old news
The death toll rises
It’ll give you the blues
In this broken city
You sure won’t see
Any help or relief
For you and me

Chorus:
Motor City violence
For you and me
Suburban crime?
That just can’t be
Motor City violence
For you and me
Drive past 8 mile
And you’ll fucking see

We come from places
You won’t see on TV
Down in the hood
Places you don’t wanna be
It sure ain’t pretty
And it’s just not safe
You gotta watch your back
And keep a gun on your waist

Chorus:
Motor City violence
For you and me
Suburban crime?
That just can’t be
Motor City violence
For you and me
Drive past 8 mile
And you’ll fucking see

Fucking see!

Drugs, violence
Are OK for the hood
But if it spreads to the suburbs
It’s suddenly no good
They’ll bring law and order
To protect the wealth
But in the Motor City
It’s every man for himself

Motor City Violence (4X)
