Detroit Red - This Is Jack'City [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
Let freedom ring

[Verse 1]
These niggas ain’t shit
But they still smell though
I put my heart in this music
That’s why this beat’s dope
I ain’t even started and these niggas want a part in it
This must be the mark, I mean, you’re watching greatness
You better thank God for all of my patience
With that bullshit I put up for you
But I’m the type that only moves when there’s no option to lose
So that means I can’t lose with the swagger I use, my nigga
God knows I ain’t got time for fucking hoes
But when the dough rise everyone knows
Pinocchio nose is the crowd when I book a show
Not a G6, but a C4, motherfucker I’ma ‘bout to blow up
Fuck the sky, I’ma walk on the moon
When they shoot me in a hoodie, bury me in a tomb
Breaking loose, make you mother fuckers quick to bruise
Making all these lyrical nooses if you want to cut the fool
G. Avant’s on the beats and there’s Nique on the beats
And there’s Viea with the heat, burning ground and feet
Jack brings calamity, like, damn can he spit?
Fuck with us now and watch how dreams make you rich, bitch

Uh, would you look at that sunrise? It’s time for Jack’City
So don’t you close your eyes… I’m saying…

[Hook]
Man up… or man down
This is our time now, so fuck with us
Guns drawn, this is our town
You can be what you want
My nigga, ‘cuz this is Jack’City

[Verse 2]
And bitches don’t believe, that’s why I walk gritty
So keep on talking shitty and see what you’ll get from me
All I need is time and the world will be mine
If you want Tony got you got have the Montana grind
I got some friends, well, I had some friends
When the money comes in, I’ll have a lot of them
So there are two of you but there’s one of me
You all are clones, how you think, but I’m fucking free
They tell you this; read that, teach that
Look up now, you can’t tell me where you’re at, fucking sad
I’m fucking mad with a hat, fuck your stats
Where’s my bat, give you the new way we bring smack
I got the crack for those hipster cats
So snap a joint fast before it pops like mad
It’s Jack, not New Jack, niggas, learn your math
Unlearn your last class ‘cuz the system is trash
We gonna set up for flight ‘cuz we breaking the ties
As we’re pushing with super might, we’ll be ready to fly
More than ready to try or ready to die
Can’t only fight what you see with your eyes
This one’s for Jack’City…

Yea… I don’t think they heard
What’s up with Jack’City?

[Hook]
Man up… or man down
This is our time now, so fuck with us
Guns drawn, this is our town
You can be what you want
My nigga, ‘cuz this is Jack’City
