Apollo Brown
Place Called Home
[Hook]
We are the blood, sweat and tears
The people we feel the love and the fear
Doesn’t matter where the hell you go
There’ll always be a place called home

[Verse 1]
They say the New Detroit is coming
People flocking back the opposite
Way on the James cousins
And I don’t know if I would call it ill intention
The city needing something
I suppose is still progression
Positive folks you want to take on that
Endeavor sure but doesn’t need another store
That’s filled with leather goods
And when I think you know the watches
I don’t think about Detroit
I think installing profits

[Verse 2]
They praised entrepreneurs the restaurateurs
And tell the residents they should be resting assured
Gangbuster beat the police back up
Paying themselves on the back
For putting street lights up
You ambulances still don’t run on time
Cops still harassing people pulling guns on time
Let’s just see how long the new Dollars last
When the people with the blue collars SAS
[Hook]
We are the blood,sweat and tears
The people we feel the love and the fear
Doesn’t matter where the hell you go
There’ll always be a place called home
(always be a place called home)
And we know there’s a time for change
But you are where your heart remains
(where your heart remains)
That’s the matter where you take that bro
There’ll always be a place called home

[Verse 3]
Yeah strategically place, highways, liquor stores
Cameras,stop lights,neighborhoods
Divided by race I grew up in the middle ground
One of the only places in the city
Where people from all backgrounds were found
Rogers park, Koreans,Blacks, Jews,Latinos
Pakistanis, S*** there was even some
Black Jews no one had a problem with anybody
We had what we needed giant game of 21 we needed everybody
Lander Submarines in the corner
Now it’s a currency exchange guriu
[?] California Chippewa learner with warm parks
Baskin-robbins online used to hit the building on Howard for lunch
Copped forties from quick stop in high school a couple blocks from my school
[?] bibles love to the Hudson Schwartz Miller
The Gables lived closest Mike [?]
Robbie comma rob’s and neuroses
[Hook]
We are the blood,sweat and tears
The people we feel the love and the fear
Doesn’t matter where the hell you go
There’ll always be a place called home
(always be a place called home)
And we know there’s a time for change
But you are where your heart remains
(where your heart remains)
That’s the matter where you take that bro
There’ll always be a place called home
