Magic City is also a nickname for:
Buju Banton (born Mark Anthony Myrie 15 July 1973) is a Jamaican dancehall, ragga, and reggae musician. Banton has recorded pop and dance songs, as well as songs dealing with sociopolitical topics.
He released early dancehall singles in 1991, but came to prominence in 1992 with two albums, including Mr. Mention, which became the best-selling album in Jamaican history upon its release. Banton signed with major label Mercury Records and released Voice of Jamaica the following year. By the mid-1990s, Banton had converted to the Rastafari faith, and his music undertook a more spiritual tone. His 2010 album Before the Dawn was the winner for Best Reggae Album at the 53rd annual Grammy Awards.
Banton gained international notoriety early on in his career for the anti-gay track "Boom Bye Bye", as well as for his 2009 arrest and conviction on drug conspiracy and firearms charges, for which he is currently serving a ten-year federal prison sentence in Federal Transfer Center with a scheduled release date of January 2019.

In the club, 20 G's in the watch.
Shortys hard, I gotta make her mine for the night.
She got an apple bottom, my momma feed her right.
I'm like, My name is Royal City girl,
And I was wonderin' if you would take me to your world.
Heard that there's a place you got,
That both me and you could go.
I won't let my momma know,
We could keep it on the low.
So it's on bring me to your city girl,
I could be your volunteer, you'll be my magician girl.
Back to the room, she put me on the chair.
Just a touch of magic her jeans disappear.

The club packed, she wanna pull disappearing acts.
Took her to the VIP, she busted it open and she throwed it back.
With a little Remy, blowing on on some good chush.
20 stacks, watch it glare, give your shades a better look.
She loosen up my belt, whispered words that she felt.

One minute, two minute, three minute, four,
She dancin' for me now, she's somethin' like a pro.
Call her Miss Houdini cause she's magic with her lips,
Like abracadabra she know where to kiss.
That's somethin' I ain't never seen before,
By the way she move I gotta put her in my video.
This is Magic City, my personal fantasy world,
Where I could do whatever with my fantasy girl.
It's 12 o'clock so she know, how I roll.
By one o'clock, she gonna take it to the floor.
Just like magic, take it down low.
Take me to your magic place, baby I ain't tryin' to wait.

[Closing:Unk]
Tell me can I talk to you
Girl where do you come from
Ive been looking for you
All of my life
Even though I barely know you boy
I think maybe tonights the night
Cause ive been looking for your love
All of my life
[Verse 1:]
Its two o'clock in the morning
And im still wide awake
Writtin letters to you girl but
I threw them all away
Because I
I wanna show what i feel for ya but
These words and this paper
Just aint good enough for ya
How can i prove to ya that girl
You live inside my mind and
I can see your pretty face everytime i close my eyes
Something about the way we meet
The day we meet i cant forget
I played this song again and again and i
I tell myself that one day
You gonna be my special queen
Convince myself you feel the same way for me and
Even though we just meet
It feels so right
This is going down tonight
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
Girl i can tell the way you feelin
Your smile is so revealin
That sparkle in your eyes
Got me knowin that your willin
To take a ride with somebody like me
Lets take a chance girl and
You could be my royalty, my loyalty
From this night until the very end
Its like a game we play
But everyone wins
Si tu fueras mi reina yo te regalaria todos mis dias momentos llenos de alegria
You got me feanin
For the taste
Of just one kiss
Im fantasing of what
Its like and i
Cant stop this
I think im goin crazy
So tell me can we talk pretty lady
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
Now ive been looking for this baby
Girl all of my life
The type of mamasita
Thats down for mine and
If you feel the same way
Let me know girl
Let me know mama c'mon
Cause now ive been looking for this baby
Girl all of my life
The type of mamasita
Thats down for mine and
If you feel the same way
Let me know girl
Let me know mama c'mon
[Chorus]
[Scribe:]
And I hope you feel my pain
Hope you don't forget my name
For the cause I claim and the reason I came Tell me was it all in vain?
I walk ball and chain
Throught the midnight rain I'd sing
And the man would say
Stop the music playing loud and clear
Cos' they don't wanna hear
Oh lord they don't wanna hear
But its loud and clear
And its deep inside my soul....
[Chorus: PNC]
Raise them hands
Say my name and let it bang
[x2]
[Verse 2: Scribe]
And I refuse to lose, no
I never been the type to quit
You'd probably give up now and just turn back around but that's one of many differences
because I don't care what the distance is I told you
I take it all the way I couldn't just walk away and just pretend like I don't have more to say
Stop the music playing loud and clear
Cos they don't wanna hear
Oh lord they don't wanna hear
But its loud and clear
And its deep inside my soul
They can't hold me down no more
they got to let me go!
[Chorus: PNC]
[Verse 3: Scribe]
Cos I know what I've gotta do
I couldn't stop now even if I wanted to
They told me give it up its impossible
Never bury my head in the sand like the ostrich do
And I'm young and I still got a lot to prove
I can't stop won't stop unstoppable
Elevated breaking down all obstacles
Til I heard a voice from the other side of the room tellin me to..
Stop the music playing loud and clear
Cos they don't wanna hear
Oh lord they don't wanna hear
But its loud and clear
And its deep inside my soul
They can't hold me down no more
they got to let me go
[Chorus: repeats til end]
