Dumbfoundead - 24KTOWN lyrics
[Dumbfoundead - 24KTOWN lyrics]
When I'm the one who speaks in
The voice of my ancestors
And the homies out on Western
Are saying they'll represent us
So I'm forever tatted, fuck 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 tomes
Fuck the police
Cuffing you, your wrist will have a Rollie
Trying to write a happy ending to the story
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
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 bitch into 24K Town
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 Normandie
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
(K Town)
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
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 bitch into 24K Town
