Playing off the first line of the Ludacris song Southern Hospitality

Cadillac grills, Cadillac mills

Cadillac is a luxury car company that has always been popular in the South, the South is also known for battle rapping, with Red Bull Energy Drinks hosting a battle in Atlanta every year.

The Southern United States, while beautiful and peaceful as it seems, has had a long history of violent racial conflicts.

For hundreds of years in America, the South were known as slave states where white slave-owners owned African slaves who were forced to work on plantations every day, the American Civil War broke out due to this issue.

After the Civil War ended and the African-Americans were freed, many extremist hate organizations, such as the Ku Klux Klan emerged in attempts to stop the African-Americans from voting or gaining equal rights.

There problems are not a thing of the past either, many recent racially charged issues, such as the Trayvon Martin case that happened in 2012 show that there is an unseen struggle between races in the South.

City and Colour, the moniker that Dallas Green goes by has a woman in his life that he cares so much for, he feels that he can never be good enough to her due to how amazing she is to him and how great she makes his life.

After the slow and quiet beginning of the song, Green picks up the tempo with energetic guitar strumming and backing vocals repeating the last word of each line he sings.

Though Green’s many sucessful musical endeavors (Alexisonfire has had several albums reach the Gold Status, City and Colour has been very successful as well.) have granted him a very wealthy and lavish life, his woman isn’t concerned with his money at all, she loves him for who he is. Green wrote this song as a gift to her, he promises to always love, care, and be faithful to her.

Ending a relationship with someone you really care for can be catastrophic to one’s mind, especially when the person you ended it with gets together with another person. Green knows that he would be a nervous wreck if this ever happened to him due to how much he loves and cares for the woman this song is about.

Dallas Green cares and loves the woman in his life with all of his heart. When they get into fights or something happens to her and that causes her to cry it breaks Green’s heart because he cares for her so and he hates to think he could have prevented her pain.

Green, being involved in two famous musical acts, is constantly going all around the world to play and perform his music. He wants his woman to know that no matter where he goes that he will always be faithful to her.

Dallas Green is the man behind the solo project City and Colour, in addition to his solo work, Green is also the guitarist and clean vocalist for the Canadian metalcore band Alexisonfire. All of Green’s musical endeavors have created him a life that is very hard to keep a sustainable relationship, his love interest has had to make many sacrifices to keep their relationship alive.

NoCanDo has been under so much stress that he has had to resort to smoking some Marlboro Red cigarettes, despite all the health risks cigarettes can cause, just so he can feel some relief from the stresses of his life.
