Duke Westlake - 24KTOWN 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 out on Western are saying they'll represent us So I'm forever tatted, f** 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 f** the police Cuffing you, your wrist will have a Rollie Trying to write a happy ending to the story [Pre-Hook: 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](2x) 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 j**eler by the pound A couple karats turn this b**h into 24K-Town [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 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) [Pre-Hook: 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](2x) 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 j**eler by the pound A couple karats turn this b**h into 24K-Town [Outro]
