[INTRO]
313 Rise
Fordson, what up?
Dearborn High, Edsel Ford
All my brothers and sisters for the cause
Let's give a round of applause for:
[Hook]
Dearborn, Call it D-Bo
Work hard, play hard, No Tebow
Then we chill, You know the deal
One time Fordson, two times D-bo
Dearborn, call it D-bo
Work hard, play hard, No Tebow
Then we chill, you know the deal
Marra Fordson, martaan D-bo
[Verse 1: P3RSONALITY]
Last year mama said I'm fat, bought me jeans way small
Hit the gym, now these TrueBoys fit well y'all
And I'm fit; mentally, physically, e-t-c
Don't compete for my seat; unless you really like defeat
I like women who are neat, intelligent, classy
The kind might be shy but say "hi" when they pass me
Sassy too, 90% classy and 10% hood so you can't tell her shit
Use my wit to spit shit that goes harder than a hit
From Ndamukong Suh
Step to this I throw fits I'll Ndamukong you
Get thrown like pig-skin in Matt Staff's crew
MegaTron flow so high above your ass
Worked my ass off on this route just waiting on the pass
No stopping at the fifty that's fifty more from home
Moving swiftly on opponents chasing me toward zone
Touchdown!
Fordson, that's in D-bo
Work hard, play hard, No Tebow
Then we chill, You know the deal
One time Fordson, two times D-bo
Dearborn, call it D-bo
Work hard, play hard, No Tebow
Then we chill, you know the deal
Marra Fordson, martaan D-bo
[Verse 2: P3RSONALITY]
Wlek shaaa? 7afla time (this is slanguage)
Mixed with 3arabe, first generation sandwich
We manage, and may I add we do that quite well
Some say we brainwashed, well this a very nice spell
3ama life is getting better; yeah; and so am I
Better with every letter, mother nature
Gave me lightning lines I'm surely glad I met her
Early in the game but I'm planning for the next
Coach say, "don't do it" but I snake these insects
Yes, down to the thirty
Dearborn on my shoulder pads you know we getting dirty
If I miss that hole in one you know I make it birdie
"Ali, I heard you rap, heard it from the birdies...
Kind of disturbing, shouldn't you still be teaching?"
I am
[Hook]
[Verse 3: P3RSONALITY]
Dearborn, Detroit, what up?
We both quite stuck, time we demand love!
Seen enough bullshit here and abroad
Allah, we need your hand
I will hand out truth by hand
Bringing back a past that should happen now
Revolution need noise; moo, moo, pow, pow!
Off to the races, and after the racists
Show them what a taste of oppression taste like
Guarantee won't say, "taste nice."
Add more spice, already fire
Do them like they did us, fahrenheit higher
Burn away the hate, love is fate
If we don't act now then we too late
Don't make this mistake, revolt!
We can remake Detroit, remake D-bo
Rise!
