Down Town - Manafest

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
