Story By Erykah Badu

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Roget Chahayed/Sean Anderson/Erica Wright
[00:00.005] 作词 : Roget Chahayed/Sean Anderson/Erica Wright
[00:00.15]Here I am Miss Badu
[00:05.11]Not Big Sean, but “I Don’t **** With You”
[00:09.22]It’s cause I’m from D, the other D
[00:12.64]But Detroit had a special place in my heart
[00:16.00]Creative, Deep, Rooted, Organic, Cosmic
[00:24.25]Fantastic, Futuristic, Ancient, Musical
[00:32.08]When I think of Detroit I think of these things
[00:35.95]There’s something in that dirty water that just gives it its flavour
[00:43.28]There is an invisible intelligence
[00:46.53]That runs through the streets
[00:49.13]Like an underground rooting system
[00:52.37]Millions and billions of memories of atoms of all of the beautiful music
[00:58.59]That has been created there
[01:00.99]And I have seen it evolve into, thangs only felt in the heart
[01:09.06]I know This to he true
[01:11.11]Thank You, Berry Gordy for that little house
[01:16.58]Thank You Stevie Wonder for always calling me
[01:20.46]And reminding me that it is there
[01:24.08]That thang
[01:27.97]I always long to connect with it when I lose my way musically
[01:32.69]Thank You J Dilla, for your peculiar- peculiar intelligence
[01:42.89]Yeah, Detroit just has a magic and I know it to be true
[01:47.86]Not Big Sean, but “I Don’t **** With You”
[01:52.32]Live from Badu-bootron
[01:54.94]To be a phenomenon
[01:57.61]Detroit: where the nubians grow
