[Andre 3000]
This just my interpretation of the situation
[Lil' Wayne]
And this is my dedication
It's poppin' dedication 4 ho (D4)
And this is dedicated, first off
To my city
The lost city of New Orleans
But umm, I wanna speak to my city
And I wanna let ‘em know that
We can't be lost for long
And we damn sure can't be lost forever
So each time we find ourselves
Within all that water
Within all that dirt, within all that blood, within all that pain, within all them cries
It's time to find ourselves, New Orleans
Because memories are everything
And when I say memories are everything
I mean it's important what you are remembered by
And trust me. I, you, we
Don't wanna be remembered as the lost city
I'd rather be remembered of the city that found glory after all that tragic
Scrimp, yea
Also I bet I could scrape it all down and get them kids off the streets
You're welcome
But umm, we gotta get up man
f** it
Rise above it
So a lot of people ask me
What you gonna do for your city?
I be like motherf**er, you ain't know what you just said?
What you gone did for your city?
Motherf**er, that's my city
Therefore I still got family members in that city mane
What the f** I'mma do for them?
You know what I mean?
And I do my best, trust me
And that's what the f** I do for my city
I do this right here for my city man
That's what the f** I do for my city
I do me for my city
So therefore I am remembered by my city
