Drive Lyrics by Nate Schultz

The Sundown: Legend of the Backyard Kid

2013

ATLANTAint no city greater than mine
Let's take a trip south and relocate the state of your mind
A gorgeous city with the sunset fading behind
I'm from the town with Ted Turner on the stadium sign
Alright I'm riding through Atlanta down on I85
Just kicking raps with my homies they pick the beats while I drive
I said I'm riding through Atlanta down on I85
Just kicking raps with the homies they pick beats when I when I
I'm rocking Jordan's and a Jansport
Hand me down corduroy pants and retro jacket kicking raps while I transport
Smoothly on a razor scooter racing through your cul-de-sac
Holding both the handles popping a wheelie when I pull em back
Yessir but now a days we PULL handles full a Jack
Ready to take more shots than a kid in the backyard shooting hoops I step to the mic and lay these golden tracks
Ain't nothing gonna hold me back I've been Atlanta's coldest cat that flow off the top like he just stole your hat
Anyway I... Come from the A and I'm bringing a whole new feel
Spit wicked vocab on em plus I got that old school skill
Ready to blow up on the scene...
Like an action picture if ya know what I mean
Ain't no doubt about it I'm king
And we've been reaching for the top like the cookie jar
Pocket full a game breakers, bubble gum, and rookie cards
Standing on the counter bout to grab it like the futures ours
Me and Shawn, cruising through the city if your looking for us
Yeah I'm on top of my game and I'm only 19 years old
God gave me quick wit and rhythm everything I say is gold
Whenever I'm in my element y'all are out of control
My shit is slicker than butter lately I been on a roll

Alright I'm riding through Atlanta down on I85
Just kicking raps with my homies they pick the beats while I drive
I said I'm riding through Atlanta down on I85
Just kicking raps with the homies they pick the beats when I when I

I'm on top of my game and I'm only 19 years old
God gave me quick wit and rhythm everything I say is gold
Whenever I'm in my element y'all are out of control

Now lemme take you back
Before Nathan knew how to rap
Before Nate even existed when Nathan was just a chap
In the neighborhood with his bat and his favorite goofy hat
Not a razor to shave his face but a razor to scoot him back
From the park we'd chill until it was dark
Playing stickball
Til dinner broke us apart
We'd sip a coke and depart
Heading home through the neighborhood streets we'd run down
We call this shit the sundown
Fast forward to middle school in my room
Vibin to a kid named Cudi man on the moon
Right there I fell in love with music for the first time
Picked up the pencil and used it to write my first rhyme
A year later my freestyles were killer
Started breaking outta my shell I'm a caterpillar
Had a realization Nathan was more than what they could take
And nowadays I'm way too focused to take a break
But it's getting late and my minds fading away
From writing these rap songs and wasting away the day
So I hit the hay just listening to the rain
Thinking back on how quick it all changed
ATLANTAint no city greater than mine
Let's take a trip south and relocate the state of your mind
A gorgeous city with the sunset fading behind
I'm from the town with Ted Turner on the stadium sign
