November47 - Tokyo+bound (feat. Tiger J) Lyrics

Jumpin up, got down in a different land
Waitin for my destiny - revealed like a card hand
Royal flush, I just blush at this mystic country
Thinkin Life's just a dream - now I'm in reality (Wow!)
Kickin back contemplatin how it's s'posed to be
Wonderin what this next Life has for me
Learning a lot, thinking a lot
Maybe this will be hard
No harder than being black, sent behind bars
And runnin and duckin fast from cop cars
We live in a culture where we are far from equality
That's right! I think I need a place to be me
And that's um...
T-O-K-Y-O, the best and...
T-O-K-Y-O, it's different from the rest
T-O-K-Y-O is where I feel most blessed
No stress. And I see...

Skyscrapers all around me
(Follow this vibe all the way to Tokyo)
The stars can't seem to find me
(As long as they were the good ones. And I would...)
The Skytree lookin down on me
(Follow this vibe long as it doesn't stir me wrong...)
The cars come and go around me
(And leave me aimless... aimless... wonderin...)
I'm Tokyo bound

I got a whole lotta figuring to do
I came here thinking I was gonna find clues
But instead I found I was overdue
For cleanin out a closet full of broken tools
Couldn't fix my life lookin at my shoes
I had to look up just to see if it was blue
The sky taught me it was ok to choose
Something other than being lost and confused
Where could I possibly go from here now?
I burned all of my bridges so you could appear now, God
No religion but I'm calling your name
I'm one or two steps from certifiably insane (Whooh!)
Head spinnin, followed by blurred vision
Alcohol overload, searchin for some attention
Searichin for an extension
Give me another day to figure out how to fit in

Skyscrapers all around me
(Follow this vibe all the way to Tokyo)
The stars can't seem to find me
(As long as they were the good ones. And I would...)
The Skytree lookin down on me
(Follow this vibe long as it doesn't stir me wrong...)
The cars come and go around me
(And leave me aimless... aimless... wonderin...)
I'm Tokyo bound

Nana korobi ya oki
(七転び八起き)

Jaku niku kyō shoku
(弱肉強食)

Keizoku ha chikaranari
(継続は力なり)

Ame futte chi katamaru
(雨降って地固まる)

Skyscrapers all around me
(Follow this vibe all the way to Tokyo)
The stars can't seem to find me
(As long as they were the good ones. And I would...)
The Skytree lookin down on me
(Follow this vibe long as it doesn't stir me wrong...)
The cars come and go around me
(And leave me aimless... aimless... wonderin...)
I'm Tokyo bound
