Atmosphere - Cut You Down lyrics

rate me

[Slug:]

My old lady say I'm paranoid

She thinks that I'm not on point

Cause I pace around with no purpose

Observant, peek out the curtains

I don't recognize that car

So why's it parked right in front of my yard?

It's been there for the last few minutes

It seems too suspicious

It's gon' be another long night

So set the alarm and the motion lights

Protect my house

That fence ain't enough to keep the riffraff out

Somebody gon' test

I'm breaking out in a sweat

It make the hair on my arms all stand up tall

If it's a private number I don't answer the call

I'm simple, I want some peace

From all the criminals, thugs and thieves

And I ain't tryna involve police

Cause I don't trust any government employees

I believe everybody's a threat

You better take it down to the next doorstep

But if you wan' doubt and pop some

I'm sleeping on my couch with a loaded shotgun

[Chorus:]

And if you wan' fuck around

I'm gon' cut you down

And if you wan' fuck around

I'm gon' cut you down

And if you wan' fuck around

[Slug:]

Shhh, I hear a helicopter

I swear it's out there

Calm down, don't make the wrong move

Cause I don't know who that van belongs to

I'm checking over both my shoulders

I bet they got my name in they folders

I'm trying to stay inside

Cause it's the only way to hide from the satellites in the sky

Get off my property

Why you stalking me?

And those guys from across the street

Better keep they eyes off my wife piece

None of y'all are watching birds

So who's in the alley with binoculars?

Got more detour to steer through

For the sedan in my rearview

I crouch on the floor

Cause knocking on my door is an act of war

And if the guy from the bank

Wanna come see me, he better drive a tank

I ain't nuts yet, I'm just upset

Cause y'all treat me like a suspect

I'm innocent, give me personal space

Before I flip the switch and turn up the bass

[Chorus]
