[00:00.0]I own a mansion, but live in a house
[00:06.820]A king-size bed, but I sleep on the couch
[00:11.570]I'm Mr.Brightside, glass is half full
[00:16.580]But my tank is half empty, gas kit just blew
[00:21.220]This always happens, 30 minutes from home
[00:24.60]Gotta lay a long cable and only option I have is McDonald's bathroom
[00:27.70]In a public stall dropping a football
[00:29.320]So every time someone walks in the john like at Madden
[00:32.60]''Shady, what up?''- What? Come on, man, I'm crapping
[00:34.550]And you're asking me for my got damn autograph on a napkin?
[00:36.740]Oh, that's odd, I just happened to run out of tissue
[00:39.550]Yeah, hand me that, on second thought I'd be glad then
[00:41.910]''Thanks, dawg, name's Todd, a big fan''
[00:44.210]I wiped my ass with it, crumbled it up in a wad and threw it back and
[00:46.810]Told him ''Todd, you're the shit'' when does all of this crap end?
[00:50.60]Can't park my [?] without causing an accident
[00:51.660]Puff my gas, cut my grass, can't take out the fucking trash
[00:54.200]Without someone passing through my sub harassing
[00:56.340]I'd count my blessings, but I suck at math
[00:58.190]I'd rather wallow then bass suffering from succotash
[01:00.640]But the antacid is my stomach gas
[01:03.40]I mix my corn with my fucking mash
[01:05.239]Potato, so what, ho, kiss my country bucking ass
[01:08.140]Missouri Southern roots, what the fuck is upperclass
[01:10.690]Call lunch dinner, call dinner supper
[01:13.80]Tupperware in a covered plastic wear up the ass
[01:15.490]Stuck in the past, iPod, what the fuck is that?
[01:18.70]B-boy to the core, mule, I'm a stubborn ass
[01:20.900]Maybe that's why I feel so strange
[01:23.560]Got it all, but I still won't change
[01:25.600]Maybe that's why I can't leave Detroit
[01:27.950]It's the motivation that keeps me going
[01:30.240]This is the inspiration I need
[01:32.390]I can never turn my back on a city that made me
[01:34.690](Life's been good to me so far)
[01:38.320]They call me classless, I heard that, I second and third that
[01:41.90]Don't know what the fuck I would doing if it weren't rap
[01:43.479]Probably be a giant turd-sack
[01:45.120]But I blew, never turned back
[01:46.630]Turned 40 and still sag
[01:48.130]Teenagers act more fucking mature, Jack
[01:50.340]Fuck you gonna say to me?
[01:51.880]I leave on my own terms, asshole, I'm going berzerk
[01:54.479]My nerves are bad, but I love the perks my work has
[01:56.580]I get to meet famous people, look at her, dag
[01:59.380]Her eyeliners ran, her skirt snag
[02:01.40]And I heard she drag-races, *burp* swag
[02:03.240]Fucking my Hanes shirt tag
[02:04.530]You're Danica Patrick (yeah) work, skag
[02:07.30]We'd be the perfect match
[02:08.229]Cause you're a vacuum, I'm a dirtbag
[02:09.630]My apologies, no disrespect to technology
[02:12.280]But what the heck is all of these buttons?
[02:14.430]You expect me to sit here and learn that?
[02:16.40]Fuck I gotta do to hear this new song from Luda?
[02:18.390]Be an expert at computers?
[02:20.350]I'd rather be an encyclopedia Britannica, hell with a Playstation
[02:24.130]I'm still on my first manual from Zelda
[02:25.829]Nintendo, bitch, run, jump, punch, stab and I melt the
[02:28.780]Mozzarella on my spaghetti, put in on bread
[02:30.870]Make a sandwich with welch's and belch
[02:32.770]They say this spray butter is bad for my health, but
[02:34.760]I think there's more white trash from the trailer
[02:36.490][?] welfare mentality helps to
[02:39.480]Keep me grounded, that's why I never take full advantage of wealth, I
[02:42.680]Managed to dwell within these perimeters
[02:44.920]Still cramming the shelves full of hamburger helper
[02:46.720]I can't even help it, this is the hand I was dealt to
[02:49.10]Creature of habit, feel like I'm trapped in an animal shelter
[02:52.90]With all these pet peeves
[02:53.490]God dammit to hell, I can't stand all these kids with their camera cellphones
[02:56.880]I can't go anywhere, I get so mad I can yell the
[02:59.670]Other day someone got little elaborate and stuck a fucking dead cat in my mailbox
[03:03.810]Went to Burger King, they spit on my onion rings
[03:06.900]I think my karma is catching up with me
[03:09.140]Maybe that's why I feel so strange
[03:10.940]Got it all, but I still won't change
[03:13.140]Maybe that's why I can't leave Detroit
[03:15.630]It's the motivation that keeps me going
[03:18.170]This is the inspiration I need
[03:19.910]I can never turn my back on a city that made me
[03:22.250](Life's been good to me so far)
[03:26.140]Got friends on facebook, all over the world
[03:32.240]Not sure what that means, they tell me it's good
[03:37.70]So I'm artist of the decade, I even got a plaque
[03:42.310]I'd hang it up, but the frame is all cracked
[03:46.840]I'm trying to be lowkey, hopefully nobody notices me
[03:49.930]In produce hunched over, giant nosebleed
[03:52.480]Over stop as I mosey over to the frozen aisle
[03:55.20]By the frozen yogurt this guy approached me
[03:57.270]Embarrassed, I just did Comerica with Hova
[03:59.370]Show's over, I'm hiding in Kroeger buying groceries
[04:01.970]He just had front row seats, told me to sign this poster
[04:04.450]Then insults me ''wow, up close didn't know you had crow's feet''
[04:07.440]I'm at a crossroad lost till shopping at Costco
[04:10.190]Sloppy Joe's, buck waffles
[04:11.780]Got caught picking my nose, ah
[04:13.320]Look over see these two hot hoes
[04:14.910]Finger still up in one of my nostrils
[04:16.860]Right next to 'em stuck at the light
[04:18.740]This fucking shit is taking forever to change
[04:20.730]I'm stuck, these bitches are loving it rubbing it in
[04:22.980]Chuckling, couldn't do nothing, play it off
[04:24.520]''What you bumping? Trunk Muzik? Yelawolf's better'', fucking bitch
[04:26.910]They want me to flip at the label, but I won't succumb to it
[04:30.10]The pressure, they want me to follow up with another one after Recovery
[04:32.659]Was so highly coveted, but what good is a fucking recovery if I fumble it?
[04:36.600]Cause I'mma drop the ball if I don't get to quit
[04:39.0]Hopping on [?] on you sons of bitches
[04:40.400]Wrong subdivison to fuck with, bitch
[04:42.600]Quit snapping fucking pictures of my kids
[04:44.340]I love my [?], but you push me to my limit, what a pity
[04:46.230]The shit I complain about
[04:47.770]It's like there ain't a butt in the sky and it's raining out
[04:50.360]Kool Aid stain on the couch, I'd never get it out
[04:52.400]Bitch, I got an elevator in my house
[04:54.450][?] I'm living the dream
[04:56.940]Maybe that's why I feel so strange
[04:58.830]Got it all, but I still won't change
[05:01.330]Maybe that's why I can't leave Detroit
[05:03.270]It's the motivation that keeps me going
[05:05.470]This is the inspiration I need
[05:07.630]I can never turn my back on a city that made me
[05:09.920](Life's been good to me so far)
