Mind State Lyrics - Singles - D-mac

(Talking:D-Mac) 

I try to tell nigga's time and time again 

You better get up and get you something nigga 

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 nigga? 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 shit 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 nigga Thats my mind state, so whats your mind state? 

Gotta get this money nigga I aint got no time to waste 

My nigga thats my mind state, so whats your mind state? 

Aint talking dollars? I'm gon' holla got no time to play 

My nigga thats my mind state, my mind state 

Nigga that's my mind state 

Verse 2: 

Never leave the porch without a gun my nigga 

Kill or be killed where Im from my nigga 

We see the rain more than sun my nigga 

And you cant have fun with no funds my nigga 

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 nigga, is a nigga thats alright with it 

Get up of your ass lil nigga do something 

Love sleep but I cant hit that snooze button 

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 niggas I consider as my brothers 

Rather grind for my own I don't want nothing from you 

Nah, nigga fuck yo handout 

I wanna be the Illest man out 

So me and feb been cooking up, just to see how it pans out 

And fuck them bitches boy its time to eat now 

When Im balling I'll catch em on the rebound 

Chorus: 

My nigga Thats my mind state, so whats your mind state? 

Gotta get this money nigga I aint got no time to waste 

My nigga thats my mind state, so whats your mind state? 

Aint talking dollars? I'm gon' holla got no time to play 

My nigga thats my mind state, my mind state 

Nigga that's my mind state 

(Talking:Jay-Z) 

And you gotta understand the reason right... 

Why does that guy think like that? Right? 

How do you arrive at that point? 

You gotta also look at that 

You gotta look at that, you gotta look at the environment's and the places we live in 

And how things are setup, and how things are structured 

And how we're always the last on the totem pole 

From our schooling to our roads 

To you know, everything that..that, All the obstacles that's placed in front of us 

Even our living conditions, if you live in the projects 

There's someone that lives here, here, here and here 

You know? you have to deal with all these different type of personalities 

You're in the box 

Someone's above you below you on the right of you and to the left of you 

And everyday you have to manage that circle, and thats just one..no 

Thats just two floors, these buildings have 26 floors and there's a ton of them 

Right? these low income houses, and everything is messed up there 

So, thats like living dormant 

If this is what I have to live for, then I'm gonna take the chance to get more 

It doesn't matter, It doesn't matter what happens to me 

(Outro:D-Mac) 

Nigga thats my mind state 

Nigga thats my mind state 

Nigga thats my mind state, my mind state 

Nigga thats my mind state, my mind state 

Nigga that's my...
