Buried In Detroit Lyrics - The Truth - Mike Posner

I'm a writer and a lover 

I'm a Midwest music man 

And I've been to a lot of places 

But I'm gon' end where I began 

I took class in Carolina 

Got high smoking joints 

And now they know my name in Paris 

But I'll be buried in Detroit 

Next to my father, and my father's father too 

I used to live in New York City 

But baby that ain't no substitute 

Not for my hometown 

That place people avoid 

I've made love in every city 

But I'll be buried in Detroit

I don't claim to be a prophet 

I just speak my mind 

I try to tell it like it is 

And sometimes God makes it rhyme 

I like my songs how I like my women 

Honest and to the point 

You see I got fucked up in Stockholm 

But I'll be buried in Detroit 

Next to my father, and my father's father too 

I used to live in New York City 

But baby that ain't no substitute 

Not for my hometown 

That place people avoid 

I've made love in every city 

But I'll be buried in Detroit 

You know I ain't gon' live forever 

Baby it won't be long 

At the wake they'll say "He made a lot of mistakes 

But he could write hell of a song" 

And I made, I made a killing 

Though I never really was employed 

I had a girl from San Diego 

But I'll be buried in 

I killed a show in Indonesia 

But I'll be buried in 

I made love in every city 

But I'll be buried in Detroit
