Where are you now? (Olde to my city)

Home of the Michelin tire on 94
Home of the gateways to Canada
Home of America’s vehicles
Home of where dreams are made
But wait those are no longer
What ever happened to life inside of Belle Isle
What ever happened to the pride people had of being from the “D”
What ever happened to the dreams people made
What ever happened to the roses that grew from concrete
Now all you have are tales of horror
Tales of what USED TO BE
Tales of survivals of the fittest
Images of brothers and sisters killing their fellow brothers and sisters for a dollar and their dream
Images of the crooked getting richer and the hard-workers being bamboozled while getting poorer
Images of innocent babies lives being taken from them
Images of the lost falling deeper
What ever happened to the sounds of the city
What ever happened to the laughter that used to fill Jefferson
What ever happened to my city
