Manafest - Down Town lyrics

[Manafest - Down Town lyrics]
On on, and on and, yeah, yeah (Downtown)
Ayy yo, the place where I'm
Chilling at is, yeah, uh
(Downtown) ayy, where people get the party
On it's D Town
And if you wanna get live, then come downtown
All my people get live on time
It's the place to be at, where we spit raps
The DJ scratch, beboys with the Air Tracks
Battle cats, graffiti, Jimmy smoking crack
I rap a prayer, two fingers in the air
Party on with Bacardi-cardi's song
Bodyguards
Folly's on, God's army got me strong
Rocking Psalms
Home to the homeless, dope Trojans
And stone folk hopeless
Coc' addicts and roach clips
Focus on the frontier, CN Towers
Engineered here, all my peers here, chill
And spend years here
Know the city, grab your girl and look pretty
Flex a fifty, and give away your pennies
Not to be trusted, gang busted, and rugged
Tourists subject to loss
So keep your eyes on your luggage
Towns that never sleep
From New York to Wall Street
Miles of concrete that rocks without a beat
Ayy yo, the place where I'm
Chilling at is, yeah, uh
(Downtown) ayy, where people get the party
On it's D Town
And if you wanna get live, then come downtown
'Cause you know that, yeah (What?)
It was downtown
Down town, like new years countdown
Skate and crowd around till the
Police turn it out
Bounce to the next spot, watch
I seen a lot cops
I got caught stopped eating a vendor dog
Rep my cross I gotta be it, rap in coliseums
God, I see him looking down
Daily and the weekend
Seeing night life and the fights and the mics
And the wrongs and the rights and
The cause is the pride
My side of the track is
For truth and the facts
Where I'm going when I rap
Through God I'm intact
The fast pace of life, you forget who you are
Try to get that girl, or soup up your car
Job, dialogue, the cost to get it all
You Got a five-year plan
But who's there when you fall?
There's nothing wrong with it
Downtown's explicit most peeps is after it
Check it when you visit
Ayy yo, the place where I'm
Chilling at is, yeah, uh
(Downtown) ayy, where people get the party
On it's D Town
And if you wanna get live, then come downtown
It's my place that I live at, downtown
If you wanna chill above average
Get passed the madness
Find Jesus of Nazareth
Or God-fearing activists
Toronto's a classic and has all the matches
The fashion, cornrose, gadgets, attractions
Traffic cars, girls, the ahhs
Left a life of God, living by no man's laws
Why's the truth hard to see
When God's in your dreams?
Put it down, follow me, Matthew 4: 19
Poisonous living, boy struck, you illin'
My boisterous opinion, minds got you thinkin'
The T dot don't stop or sleep
Watch clocks in streets
Party blocks loose is how we do
Is everything fair in the city? (Nope)
Why don't you ask the squeegees, homeless
Or the needy
Regardless or not, I still call it my home
Residing in the downtown, uptown
Land of broken souls
Ayy yo, the place where I'm
Chilling at is, yeah, uh
(Downtown)
And If you wanna get live, then come downtown
Ayy, where my people get the party on, it's
(Downtown) downtown
The place that I live at
The place that I live at t-Dot
Ayy yo, the place where I'm
Chilling at is, yeah, uh
(Downtown) ayy, where people get the party
