Welcome to motherfuckin' Detroit God damn it
Greetings, welcome to Detroit, a place where profanity is acceptable and tough individuals reside here.

Where's my gangstas and all my thugs
Calling out to all the individuals who are violent and enjoy law-breaking activities.

Throw them hands up and show some love
Raise your hands and express appreciation.

And I Welcome you to Detroit City
Once again, welcome to the city of Detroit.

I said Welcome to Detroit City
Repeating the previous statement.

Every place, everywhere we go
Wherever we travel, wherever we explore.

Man we deep everywhere we roll
An abundance of people always accompanies us on our journeys.

Ask around and they all know Tricky
Inquiring about me will yield the same result, I am a well-known individual.

Ask what's good man they all say Tricky
People tend to ask about my well-being as I am respected and influential.

Click click boom, just as soon as we hit the room
The sound of firearms signifies our arrival upon entering.

You can hear 'em holla Goon Sqwad in this bitch
People announce our presence by shouting the name of our group, Goon Sqwad.

Let me hear you holla Goon Sqwad in this bitch
Encouraging more individuals to acknowledge our arrival by shouting the name of our group.

Let me hear you holla Runyon Ave. in this bitch
Another neighborhood name is exclaimed for recognition after our arrival.

So who am I gonna call on when I ain't got them boys with me
In times of distress and lack of assistance, who can provide help for me?

And the situation gets a little sticky
When a situation becomes uncertain and problematic.

I'ma dial 911 like a motherfuckin' punk, fuck that, bla bla
Refusing to use emergency services and resources as it is cowardly.

I'mma call that rude boy from Detroit, Trick Trick
Opting to seek assistance from a well-known Detroit figure, Trick Trick.

Come to the club, meet me out front
Arrive outside the club to assist and provide protection.

There's some chump up in this bitch
A disrespectful, unimportant individual is present in the club.

Poppin' some junk cause he's drunk
Starting a verbal altercation due to being intoxicated.

And we may have to fuck his ass up
Physical violence may be necessary for resolution.

Cause uh, somethin' smells a lil' fishy
Due to strange and suspicious circumstances, something is not quite right.

And I don't like the way his boys keep lookin' at me
