Dumbfoundead - 24KTWN Lyrics
[Verse 1: DFD]Feel the pressure, yeah I feel the pressure, /When I'm the one who speaks in the voice of my ancestors, /And the homies up in Western are saying they'll represent us, /So I'm forever tatted, ***** a temporary henna, /It's a privilege to pursue- /-my happiness, cause my crew, /Got a list of things to do, /Before dreaming about the future; /Running the family business, /Handling father sickness, /All the sacrifices given,I'm doing this all for you, /It's a letter to my homies, /You will never have to owe me, /Buying bottles, karaoke, /With a couple model (tommies)/***** the police, /Bluffing you, your wrist will have a rolley, /Trying to write a happy ending to the story, /[Refrain: DFD]I guess this is a going-away letter, /I ain't coming back to town 'till I'm doing like way better, /Don't be offended when phone calls go to voicemails, /The flight attendant asked me to turn it off, that's real, /[Hook: DFD]I'm bringing gold to me city, who's with me? /Gold watches for my people, did you miss me? /Bought them all off the jeweler by the pound, /A couple karats turn this ***** into 24K-Town, /(Repeat Hook)[Verse 2: DFD]Where'd you go? They're asking me where I went, /Gone for a couple months, but it feels like I barely left, /Everybody is a statue that froze at their last step, /Every weekend is a celebration of the past-tense, /My brothers with resolutions, /My sister with no excuses, /I salute ya', /Let's go and make some moments in the future, /I ain't saying I'm Confucius, I'm confused as much as ya'll, /Another student of life, I just studied abroad, /Normally I'd be on (Darmody), but normal is done, /It ain't about repping inside, but outside where you're from, /When they're drunk, they yell it from the top of their lungs, /But over drums, they'll hear it for generations to come, /[Refrain: DFD]I guess this is a going-away letter, /I ain't coming back to town 'till I'm doing like way better, /Don't be offended when phone calls go to voicemails, /The flight attendant asked me to turn it off, that's real, /(24K-Town, bringing gold to my city)[Hook: DFD]I'm bringing gold to me city, who's with me? /Gold watches for my people, did you miss me? /Bought them all off the jeweler by the pound, /A couple karats turn this ***** into 24K-Town, /(Repeat Hook)[Outro]
