Shhh Lyrics - Atmosphere

Such a pleasure to come home 

'cause I...I have a very special love for this city 

Well all right, well okay [x3] 

Well all right [x3] 

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

[Chorus:] 

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 

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, feel your motivation and build your nest 

It sucks that you think where I'm from is wack 

But as long as that's enough to keep your ass from coming back 

And with a smile and a hint of sarcasm, he said 

"I beg your pardon but this is my secret garden"

Well okay

Well all right

Well okay 

(Minneapolis, Minneapolis, Minneapolis, Minneapolis) 

[Repeat Chorus] 

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 

Well alright, well okay [repeated in background]
