“COWBOY BEAT” was originally previewed on PlaqueBoyMax’s Twitch stream, on December 1st, 2024 during a Song Wars battle. It was originally confirmed by DC to be on the deluxe of his album REBIRTH, before the deluxe was scrapped. He later dropped the track as an exclusive song on the Limited Edition...
[Verse 1: DC The Don]
I said, "I'd rather be rollin' up blunts in the hopes that I feel somethin'," then covered my face
It's a shame, I swallowed my words without sayin' my grace
Everything I seen turned me off, got me losin' my faith
Every thought is a exercise, I'm runnin' in place
Tell me how I'm supposed to turn it up now?
Still in the middle of the city, I got blood on my hands
They like, "Damn, they did you dirty, dawg," they did me dirty, dawg
What it feel like?
Tell me how the fuck it's supposed to feel like
I can't stay out the way, baby, this my real life
Rollin' under pressure, even when it don't feel right
[Chorus: DC The Don]
Do the ceiling fan still make too much noise?
Early Sunday morning with the garden blowers (Oh-oh-oh)
You shut the blinds, even though the sunlight still haunts you
You play the cowboy beat through the middle of the summer
[Post-Chorus: DC The Don]
Slow dancin', ooh
Slow dancin' (I'd rather be home; Yeah)
Slow dancin' (I'd rather be home; There's no love me for me outside)
I said, "I'd rather be home" (There's no love for me)
Oh
[Verse 2: DC The Don]
Excuse me, shawty, before you lose me, shawty
Can we dance? I ain't come to do interviews in this party (Oh, ooh, ooh)
Know I got problems, babe, but I don't care nothin' about 'em
We can do it just how you want it, I ain't judging nobody
She play the cowboy beat through the middle of the night (Don't let the soul cry)
Role playing through your mind like you ain't have a good life (Woo, woo, woo)
And while the moonlight shine, she let me out on the roof (You're still gone, oh)
Stargazin', I left my shades on, I'm tryna see it through (You're still gone, ooh)
[Refrain: DAMOYEE & DC The Don]
Come close, put your arms around me, feel the moment of peace (You're still gone)
Take a pic', it lasts longer, make it a memory (I'd rather be home, home, home)
When I hold my breath each time your heart beats (I'd rather be home, home, home)
Hear your voice through the void, I can feel your eyes on me (I'd rather be home, home, home)
Why don't we cut through the noise? (You're still gone)
On this beautiful night, 'fore you go, let's enjoy it
Let's enjoy it (Oh)
[Chorus: DC The Don]
Do the ceiling fan still make too much noise? (Slow dancin')
Early Sunday morning with the garden blowers (Slow dancin')
You shut the blinds, even though the sunlight still haunts you
You play the cowboy beat through the middle of the night, yeah (Woo; Slow dancin'; Uh)
[Refrain: DAMOYEE & DC The Don]
Come close, put your arms around me, feel a moment of peace (Oh, I'm gone)
Take a pic', it lasts longer, make it a memory (Oh, I'm gone; Woo)
When I hold my breath each time your heart beats (Oh, I'm gone)
Hear your voice through the void, I can feel your eyes on me (Slow dancin'; Does it still? Does it still?)
[Chorus: DC The Don]
Do the ceiling fan still make too much noise?
Early Sunday morning with the garden blowers
You shut the blinds, even though the sunlight still haunts you
You play the cowboy beat through the middle of the night, yeah
