[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, 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 (tommies)/
f*** 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 b**** 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? /
