Atmosphere - Shhh (Hidden Song) lyrics

[Sample] Such a pleasure to come home Cause I... I have a very special love for this city [Intro: Slug] Well all right, well okay (x3) Well all right(x3) [Verse 1: Slug] I wanted to make a song about where I'm from You know? Big up my home town, my territory, my state But, I couldn't figure out much to brag about Prince lives here, we got 10,000 lakes But wait, the women are beautiful, to me they are And we're not infested with pretentious movie stars And it hit me, Minnesota is dope If only simply for not what we have but what we don't It's all fair, it ain't out there, it's in there It's in the mirror, behind the breast, under the hair "Follow the dream" doesn't mean "leave the love" Roam if you must, but come home when you've seen enough I love New York and Cali, but I ain't movin' Too overpopulated, saturated with humans And I'm not big on rappers, actors, or models If I had to dip, I'd probably skip to Chicago None of this is to diss no one, nowhere Like damn, I'm from Minnesota, land of the cold air Too many mosquitoes and our fair share of egos But like my man Sabe says, that's where my mommy stays [Hook: Slug] So if the people laugh and giggle when you tell 'em where you live Say shhh, say shhh And if you know this is where you wanna raise your kids Say shhh, say shhh If you're from the Midwest, and it doesn't matter where Say shhh, say shhh If you can drink tap water and breathe the air Say shhh, say shhh [Verse 2: Slug] Got trees and vegetation in the city I stay The rent's in the mail and I can always find a parking space The women outnumber the men two to one Got parks and zoos and things to do with my son The nightlife ain't all that, but that's okay I don't need to be distracted by the devil every day And the jobs ain't really too hard to find In fact, you could have mine if you knew how to rhyme This is for everyone around the planet That wishes they were from somewhere other than where they standin' Don't take it for granted, instead take a look around Quit complaining and build something on that ground Plant something on that ground, dance and sleep on that ground Get on your hands and knees and watch the ants walk around that ground Make a family, make magic, make a mess Take the stress, fuel your motivation, and build your nest It s**s that you think where I'm from is whack But as long as that's enough to keep your a** from coming back And with a smile and a hint of sarcasm, he said "I beg your pardon but this is my secret garden" All right (In the land of ice and snow) Well okay (In the land of ice and snow) Well all right (In the land of ice and snow) Well okay (Minneapolis, Minneapolis, Minneapolis, Minneapolis) [Hook] [Hook: Slug] If the playground is clear of stems and syringes Say shhh, say shhh If there's only one store in your town that sells 12-inches Say shhh, say shhh If no one in your crew walks around with a gun Say shhh, say shhh And if you ain't gonna leave cause this is where you're from Say shhh, say shhh [Outro] Well alright, well okay (repeated in background) St. Cloud, Minnesota Mankato, Minnesota Duluth, Minnesnowta Kansas City St Louis, Missouri Columbia, Missouri Oshkosh, Wisconsin Madison Milwaukee Cincinnati, Ohio Columbus, Ohio Boulder, Colorado Lawrence, Kansas Tulsa, Oklahoma Sioux Falls, South Dakota Ann Arbor, Michigan Indianapolis Say shhh..
