[Spoken Word]

Here is a city of contrast

Yet it's reputation is built on the imagination and abilities of it's people

The city was in their hearts

Detroit has always moved forward on faith

Building and re-building

It looks only to the future

The face of Detroit is changing every day

And the old always gives way to the new

Perhaps fate had its eye on this place from the very beginning

This is the city of Detroit, in the state of Michigan (Michigan, Michigan)
