In Defense of Dorchester |
Staring down Cedar Grove up on Indian Hills |
See a skyline littered with triple deckers and gin mills |
Years of Tot Lot pass my eyes |
Reflecting faces that have gone by |
Adams corner embedded in my soul |
In defense of Dorchester |
Home to a thousand dreams and Bean Town legends |
In defense of Dorchester |
Historical relevance cemented in her sidewalks |
Gather up my thoughts, stroll through the observation fields |
Think about Dot detractors well up with a rapid anger |
Because I can’t help but sing for her |
It gets real personal when she is slurred |
Can’t forget Garvey and Hemey Park |
In defense of Dorchester |
A real community not idle zip codes |
In defense of Dorchester |
I forged a life on these streets and city roads |
This is who I am |
This is where I’m from |
Wear it on my sleeve |
Predictably the fire brand |
Never stay silent when she’s assailed |
Into my heart advocacy nailed |
Lower Mills, I did not forget you |
In defense of Dorchester |
Home to a thousand dreams and Bean Town legends |
In defense of Dorchester |
No matter where the gang winds up, you’ll always be my home |
