DJ 23 - Back In The A Lyrics

(23 on the damn beat)
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
(We taking it to the hood, let's go!)
Posted up on M.L.K., I'm back in the A (The A)
I'm turning up the block it's too much traffic right by Mays (By Mays)
Reeling in that bag, get the money different ways
He keep asking how I earned my stain, boy get out my face (My face)
Floating like a bee, I punch like Ali in his shit (His shit)
Might not know me personally but nigga you know that I'm the shit
Yall still sleeping? Yall better wake up
Pass me the ball, you know imma lay up
Hoes be calling, they tryna lay up
Ain't no stalling me, I'm tryna get up (I'm tryna get up)
A-T-L-A-N-T-A, that's where I'm from
Shoutout Allen Temple, Abby Ridge, shoutout all the slums (Slums)
Riding through the westside with a V8 in the front
Flicking up with my best side, put this drip on every month (Every month)
Two three back again, had to take a vacay in the west coast
Two three set the trend, I'm the one they copying the most
Got love for all my kin (All my kin)
Always here not going ghost
I balled so hard done hurt my shin, dunking on em' in the post (Dunking on em' in the post)
Lead the way and never follow, man that's all I know
Playing in these streets a dirty game, you gotta get out fasho
Sticking to my roots, I'll never change
Ladies f*ck with me cause I'm a local celebrity, all of em' know my name
I guess that shit come with the fame (Fame)
Not worried bout no chain (Chain)
That's not really my lane (Lane)
Wipe off the window pane while I'm sliding in the rain (The rain)
The city made me who I am, I can't forget it (Oh nah)
Raisied on Cascade Road is where I learned to count them digits (Uh)

Floating like a bee, I punch like Ali in his shit (His shit)
Might not know me personally but nigga you know that I'm the shit
Yall still sleeping? Yall better wake up
Pass me the ball, you know imma lay up
Hoes be calling, they tryna lay up
Ain't no stalling me, I'm tryna get up (I'm tryna get up)
Nowadays I don't know what's wrong with niggas in the A (The A)
They always be crashing out over a bitch, that's why I stay out the way (The way)
Yea, you can look in my eyes I don't see no desire to retire (Retire)
I'm tryna go win me a belt like Rocky Balboa, eye of the tiger
But I'm a lover not a fighter (Fighter)
Nah, I never was a thug (Thug)
These niggas think they real strikers (Strikers)
Just by shooting up the club (Club)
Leaving the hate where it was, can't even dwell on the ones that don't believe (Don't believe)
Had faith in myself, started checking off boxes I achieved
Celebration blunts, I chief
Runts played out, it ain't unique
Whole zip, I'm getting it cheap
Spark the flame, almost burnt my cheek (My cheek)
Bankhead to Gresham Road, you gone catch everybody throwing 4's
Why everybody be false claiming? I ain't seen em' in my zone
