Dillatroit Songtext / Lyric

Y'all wanna bite and sample him

Screaming, "I got tracks by Dilla" (Nigga)

Nigga, Charles Hamilton

Lying for the camera, damage you, Jeru

Beat a nigga red 'til he think he Blood or Piru

On the internet like you know Ma Dukes

Well Ma Dukes'll probably puke at the site of you

Motown rebirthed a monster, no baby food

Still a nigga throw fits like babies do

Boost my heart, this is for the Yancey team

I wrote these words like James Yancey theme

(Give 'em horror Sup!)

Retribution, reverts behind a true score

(Scream!) Nigga, this Dilla music

Somehow the drum and hi-hat makes me abuse it

For Jay Dee I'm a soldier, every sound's a movement

General selector, army platoon shit

Welcome to Detroit, welcome back to the unit

Jay Dee said get 'em, nigga you getting bullwhipped

Set yourself to fall in love, nigga get poolsticked

Rest of your sins baptized in the pulpit

Dilla donuts get worldwide spins

Hundred percent Jay Dee, no Dilla pretend

Try to duplicate the trend, hope that Jay Dee'll send

All you Dilla stealing niggas, here's Jay Dee's revenge



If you could make music for the world, who would you be?

How would it sound? How would it feel?

Would it make you think of Motown and the heart that pound

The beat in the street, Dillatroit this is 313

(Repeat x2)



Rebirth motown, reassemble, recharge, recorded, relit, rekindled

I'm known to see different, you glow and we glisten

Breathe the scent and represent

Get choked for remixing, ego, we divided

I just washed the seam to the skull he provided

It's all in the news, you can go read about it

The more people hear Jay, the more he deposit

Hey Jay, they trying to eat off your name

Doing new things and it ain't even the same

The king with a board, they trying to figure you out

Start with a dream and then you invent a new route

Uh, it's powerful how it came together

Hit record in the zone and it stay forever

Timeless, I see it day and night

Everybody leave, then they coming back trying to make it right

Ecstasy and pain, ultra hard, dramatical

We bogart a attitude, old scars get tatted too

Come from the Hart Plaza, murder car capital

Broken dream boulevard, heard it all avenue



A new beginning, focused on the dime in the year

It's no ending, things never seemed so clear

I take a second reflecting on the way stuff was

Was it hate, or was they giving me tough love

I don't know, still it made me who I am

Now I'm back, ready to pursue my plan

And now I'm back, ready to renew my stance

And like that, a nigga feeling new again, uh

Yeah and I'm right back on it

I'm living the dream with some nightmare moments, uh

But everybody has a story in the skyscraper of a building called glory

What's yours?

My music allows me to touch yours

Get called out for encores

Tell me, should I wan't more?

Of course I should, that's what I'm so charged for
