lyrics

Verse 1 (MCMD)
There's a state of mind in this state of mine
like maybe it's okay for you to just enjoy your life
That's what I like about this place where I'm from
Everybody owns a gun but no one's shooting us up
Upper class is more like middle class,
and middle class is working twice as hard for what they have,
but who am I to complain I do the same thing
Peace and love if you be working 40 plus to maintain
There ain't no mainstream, we got no fame thing,
except for senators trying to get their thing cleaned
in a stall by a cop, if that's all that we got
then I guess that's what I'll rock - the Gem State
We chill like a sensei trying to reach zen on a Wednesday
in a coffee shop, it's straight poppy cock the way they talk about us
In defense of my home you know I talk the loudest
The gem stands for love, there's no man corrupt enough
she couldn't touch and get him to love her
That's why I'm content spending time paying rent
to reside with the gem, there could be no other

Chorus
Polished, cut, refined like a gem
Quality - you cannot find it in them
but us? Infinite, style - intimate
Gem State - my home base, it's too great (x2)

Verse 2 (DTF)
What am I livin' in Pandora?
Nope it's ID not Navi, I explore-a
like Dora, I found what I'm lookin' for-a,
nobody can swipe it as if I could not afford
but even if that's the case I close it
Objection; doesn't matter, so just close it
and roll with me, buckle up and see
the beauty that resides along a belt that's green
The C.O.T. be the freakin' T.O.P.
We look down but unfortunately we no see
cause we hidden in a gem, unfortunately for them
they miss out on a treasure, we're the 'X', yessir
On the map, not on the radio
Snow in April - maybe so, maybe no
It's crazy though cause if you don't like
just wait five
minutes and you will see some sunshine
and though unsigned, got a lotta cosigns
from even more talented people than I
All from the place I reside, I shine like gems
and like falcons we fly high
Peregrine to the world
Don't get offended when I grin at your girl - I'm just nice
There ain't enough smiles in life,
but in my town, there's always one in sight, it's nice

Chorus x2
