2AM in Kent
[Verse 1: David Fung]
I’m trying give them that 2AM in Kent vibe
That CBP free my brother Ken vibe
Cuz he ain’t do nothing but keep the crew buzzin’
Now we spaz on the track trying to prove something
Two steps forward, one step back
Watch my heart Harden, son step back
I just turned the same age as Paul Millsap
I still ain’t in my prime, does that make y’all mad? Probably not
By the way, I’m a polyglot
Which means I serve words like it’s volleyball
Merge nerves like Salvador Dali clocks
Golly gosh, I gotta cop from Alibaba
Watch out for this Huaqiao
Who still grabs boards even if you box out
Until I’m laid up, I gotta clap backboards
VISA Squad combo, Marvel vs Capcom
Six years ago I tried it in the motherland
It didn’t work out so I partnered with my brother and
We built an Asian-American hub
For all the issues swept under the rug
Lived in LA but stayed away from the drugs
Got mad love from the nerds to the thugs
But now it’s time for a different chapter
Sometimes moving forward is moving backwards, back to Asia
[Verse 2: Dough-Boy]
It's been a long time coming
The road is rough but we didn't mind running
We gave you everything, you still wanna hear more
Sampling some tracks that I didn't get the clearance for
But I'm Dough-Boy, I don't give a what
Hope they don't sue me, better wish me luck
Sometimes I think about how my life would turn out
Living on the edge as the ashes burn out
Times are hard, it ain't what used to be
Doing what I like ain't doing good for me
This guy approached me on the train, “What was going on?”
He said he liked my tracks, he resonated to my songs
I told him we the same living in public housing
Surviving this city, drinking from the same fountain
Sometimes I think I do it just for this feeling
Sometimes I think I'm doing it to find the meaning
At the same time trying to make money
While this m**** still trying to take from me
17 million views for Fly Out
Should've done my publishing instead of picking buy-out
But I love making beats, what else can I say?
Still calling other clients who forgot to pay
And just another day, another dollar
At this day and age, I don't know who my real brothers
Gotta catch my flight, gotta do this show
How many more years you think you could go?
I will never know
[Interlude: Andrew Fung]
Yo, never know
Never know
Never know, uh
[Verse 3: Andrew Fung]
Ayy yo, I heard that one day we could all be individuals
I read it somewhere, man, I hope it wasn't fictional
Because I know it’s never simple just to be people
Who are seen as equal when the revolution’s peaceful
Resilience is brilliance, as one of the millions
Scratch that, it’s more like one of the billions
Seen as useful, but hyper frugal so they ogle at our tasty noodles
Thanks for the kudos, we still ain’t cool though
You like the language as a tattoo but not to learn
You like the girls but act like it’s something that you earned?
We ain't all nerds and what about the boys?
Y’all don’t want us around unless we’re employed
When we take jabs at ya, you dodge them like Floyd
That’s some Bull like basketball in Illinois
We were handed a butter knife in a gang fight
And didn’t sharpen it that same night so who's to blame, right?
I seen the Reddit posts, I share the same plight
And a lot of dudes are tappin' out of that same fight
Different people got different approaches
We both trying to win games but we got different coaches
This track is for the people tryna hear it
Everyone else can feel the beat and not the lyrics, yeah
This one's the one for the ones who need to hear it
Everyone else can feel the beat and not the lyrics
We out
