(Talking:D-Mac) I try to tell n***a's time and time again You better get up and get you something n***a You blink and you'll be in your mid 30's, with no stories to tell And a mind full of would've's and could've's, and should've's All this motheruckin money out here n***a? Better get you some By any means...Listen (Verse 1:D-Mac) I got moves to make Risks to take Goals to set, goals to reach, and dreams to chase Cant be worried bout what people say, let em hate Trying to make it to the top floor, gotta elevate, get out my way I aint got no time to play wont let you stop me for a second Be careful who you hang with cause they may just block yo blessings Stay prayed up, keep a fully loaded weapon In the city where I'm living bodies dropping sh** get hectic Get out then give back, thats the plans for the ghetto Work for what I want and nothing less I'll never settle Find a faithful woman who can put up with my schedule And accept its money over everything everyday Chorus: My n***a Thats my mind state, so whats your mind state? Gotta get this money n***a I aint got no time to waste My n***a thats my mind state, so whats your mind state? Aint talking dollars? I'm gon' holla got no time to play My n***a thats my mind state, my mind state n***a that's my mind state Verse 2: Never leave the porch without a gun my n***a k** or be k**ed where Im from my n***a We see the rain more than sun my n***a And you cant have fun with no funds my n***a So, even though we might get life from it We find a hustle and we put our life in it Cuz only thing worse than a broke n***a, is a n***a thats alright with it Get up of your a** lil n***a do something Love sleep but I cant hit that snooze bu*ton Gotta get up out of bed, go and get bread whether part time gig or risking time in the feds Lurking all fall just to ball all summer Vowed I will never let a woman take me under Only roll with n***as I consider as my brothers Rather grind for my own I don't want nothing from you Nah, n***a f** yo handout I wanna be the Illest man out So me and feb been cooking up, just to see how it pans out And f** them b**hes boy its time to eat now When Im balling I'll catch em on the rebound Chorus: My n***a Thats my mind state, so whats your mind state?
