Atlantic

[Chorus]
Money cost more than most things
Ain't too far from rope strings
Explosives, gold rings, dope fiends
Can't keep track of my proceeds
Money's no more than commas
Keeping us all on collars
Why some boi turn robbers
Probably why mans want problems
Money cost more than most things
Ain't too far from rope strings
Explosives, gold rings, dope fiends
Can't keep track of my proceeds
Money's no more than dollars
No black lovable scholars
All of our girls need mamas
All of our boys need fathers

[Verse]
I'm feeling like a private eye and shit
Trying to find a better diet, rich in all the iron, vitamins and finer things

Travel the path with a water border
Know that the bath been the water courses
Trained from the past, we was not important
And we ain't eat average, we grovel porridge
Now we know that that cash is chaotic orbit, and we

Never seen Atlanta but we traveled the Atlantic
All my ancestors vanished, all aboard this here titanic, I just hope they didn't panic
(Where did I come from?)
I just know they didn't panic
(Where do we come from?)
I just know they didn't

[Chorus]
Money cost more than most things
Ain't too far from rope strings
Explosives, gold rings, dope fiends
Can't keep track of my proceeds
Money's no more than commas
Keeping us all on collars
Why some boi turn robbers
Probably why mans want problems
Money cost more than most things
Ain't too far from rope strings
Explosives, gold rings, dope fiends
Can't keep track of my proceeds
Money's no more than dollars
No black lovable scholars
All of our girls need mamas
All of our boys need fathers

[Post-Chorus]
Never seen Atlanta but we traveled the Atlantic
All my ancestors vanished, all aboard titanic, I just hope they didn't
(Where did I come from?)
I just know they didn't panic
(Where do we come from?)
I just know they didn't
