This Town Lyrics by Tona

Carpe Diem

2015

[Verse 1]

Ain't no cash in these jeans
Just a pocket full of dreams
The ambition alone in it
Got it busting out the seams
I know that fame ain't nothing like what it seem
While I'm still in my inception I'm still protecting this dream
I just put on my loyalty for my team
I say money, cars, and women let nothing come in between
Youngins say that I inspire them they inspiring me
I hope I can give them the guidance nobody provided me
If I ever get a time that's always left to be seen
This ain't happen overnight I've been struggling since a teen
As I'm staring down my city hope everybody succeed
And that's whether or not you wishing that same outcome for me
It's that [?] affiliation I can never leave
It's everything that I breathe
Everything that I bleed
So I bring it out everywhere round the city from west to east
It's still the same when I leave, carry it in my stream
It's me

*Beat rides*

[Verse 2]

They tell me this that wack era of music
Embrace it or refuse it
The 90s' fuck it and that lifestyle back
And that's whether if I'm inclined you're out your mind
I would donate my spine to give my city it's backbone back
And that's just a older maestro
Feel I owe a lot more, the maestro
Take it from here and let the lights show
And when I'm gone hope somebody keep my name alive
Feel like I'm Damon Stoudamire back in 95
Couldn't live up to the hype and what I was facing
The expectations a superstar in the making
I'm here I'm just the future living in present day
Give me the pressure of my city I can hold the weight
Just love my borough represent it to the fullest
Ain't nobody finna take it where I took it
Took a couple of bookings
But still over the tower what I'm seeing
Can do this forever and never see end
This is what I believe in

[Outro]

It looks like we've come this far
In a matter of time we'll all be stars
