[Verse : AC Lane ]
ATL State of Mind, I go crazy in these rhymes
These n***as in the A be acting shady all the time
But not me, everybody plotting and scheming
Of course they're not what they seeming, these women hot for the semen
You better watch those, and watch out the potholes
They watching your watch while you rock shows
So peep that, n***as getting head with the seat back
Take you out ya' rolls, and ya' ho, you could keep that
Ride off bumping me, ac, or maybe 3 stacks
Give ya girl knee pads for them knee caps
You need cash if you wanna make a profit
Takes money to make money, words of a profit
No,i'm not from the hood directly, word, but i wreck beats
And you ain't really balling like a rec league
AAU, they send a squad to Aim At U
Aim and shoot, your ney worth,aim at hoops
It's that easy, n***as bumping gucci and jeezy
I was bumping nas and jay so they couildn't read me
Parties in the A, damn that sh** does not work
Awkward, everytime somebody shot burst
Can't throw an afterparty cuz the party getting shot first
Back in the day they had fought first
Not today, we tryna make a knot a day
Pot or ye,and some of us the proper way
Yeah but seein all em' bills make you contemplate
All in lennox and phips, and they spend it all in your face
Now they hating feeling like you spittin all in your face
And that could be the very reason for a h*mo case
That's not okay, i was at starlight off in moreland
That's a drive-in movie, i was there with like four friends
With my lady friend I'm tryna get up in her soft skin
Tryna get it in before it all ends
Door locked, heard a knock from the back window
Gun shot, shot gun, could've been that simple
But nah, it was my n***a,I'm like " what do you want?"
He said Yo we need to go, you looking like a sittin duck
So we riding, driving to the nearest waffle house
I'm just tryna get a damn waffle then im out
But nah g, n***as came in claiming they all g
In tall tees, one of them peeping my car keys
And i don't bare arms like a long sleeve
Got a n***a asking should he reach under the car seat
But nope, it was just more paranoia
Prepare your soul you never know when they rolling up on ya
If his mind is dark, he might, off your switch
Have your whole squad wonder where your life went
Pops took us to the burbs so we ain't gotta deal wit it
Pop still got the word, hope he don't gotta k** wit it
Just intentions, he didn't want me to be making a pension
In the kitchen, young Cy Young with the pitching
Off base,if you living that life then you're not safe
No insurance for the dealer n***a, that's in all states
Cause in atlanta the moneys the only motivation
Your girl could've set you up, so be safe when you hold relations
No one's safe in this world nowhere
Know why? somebody's sitting in the cold somewhere
And that's enough to get them hot headed
That's enough to fill you up with some hot lead and
Not care a-bout it, cause terror, out in
Public, like f** it, if they ain't get it you ain't getting nothing, cousin
Make a decision, they only see an 8th of the vision
Everybody's a rapper because of all the paper that's in it
Here in Atlanta, home of the dances, n***a the real's back
So chill black, i'm part of the crew, that's tryna k** that
Steal that, throne, nevermind i own that
Illest n***a in the city yea you should've known that
Yall autotune tooo much, where's the love for hip hop
You n***as too tuned in to that love and hip hop
Where the art of storytelling go, let a n***a know
Y'all took rap to the cliff, and tried to let a n***a go
But ima be the one in atl to save that n***a
Pull him up, it's AC Lane and i'ma stay that n***a
(RANT)
That's the mind state in this state of mine
ATL state of mind
