[Tempo: 115 BPM, half-time feel Target Length: about 3:20–3:30 Delivery: cool melodic rap-sung, controlled, wounded, confident, Atlanta night energy] [0:00–0:12 | Intro — chrome ping, filtered keys] Don’t say it loud… Just keep it real. Yeah. [0:12–0:42 | Verse 1 — tight pocket, not rushed] They whispered my name When I wasn’t around Same ones smiled When I came back down Plot got twisted But I stayed ten toes Had to move different When the room got cold Out in the A Where the lights don’t sleep Everybody got motion But the price ain’t cheap Twin said, “lock in” So I locked my face Can’t let fake love Come and crowd my space [0:42–1:00 | Pre-Hook — more melodic] I seen friends turn I seen love fold I seen soft hearts Turn ice cold But I’m still here Still on go Had to lose the noise Just to hear my soul [1:00–1:28 | Hook — smooth rage, catchy, spacious] Whisper my name Don’t twist my story I came from pressure You can’t ignore me Outside in Atlanta With my pain tucked low Heart still heavy But my eyes still glow Whisper my name Don’t play me close I know who real I know who ghost Plot twist came But I didn’t break I just turned that loss Into motion in the A [1:28–1:46 | Post-Hook — short, hypnotic] Motion in the A Motion in the A Had to get quiet Just to find my way Motion in the A Motion in the A Don’t twist my name When I’m not in your face [1:46–2:16 | Verse 2 — Atlanta life, cool modern language] Phone on silent Still see the plays Folks get loud When they ain’t got a lane Everybody outside But not everybody straight Some just want shine Some just want shade Westside rain On a blacked-out ride Eastside pain With a smile outside Southside dreams In a small apartment Northside meetings Tryna turn me corporate I ain’t mad I just peep and move You showed your hand I adjusted too No cap, I loved What I had to lose Now I choose peace Like I paid my dues [2:16–2:36 | Pre-Hook 2 — stripped, underwater keys] I seen friends turn I seen love fold I seen soft hearts Turn ice cold But I’m still here Still on go Had to lose the noise Just to hear my soul [2:36–3:06 | Hook 2 — wider, but no crowding] Whisper my name Don’t twist my story I came from pressure You can’t ignore me Outside in Atlanta With my pain tucked low Heart still heavy But my eyes still glow Whisper my name Don’t play me close I know who real I know who ghost Plot twist came But I didn’t break I just turned that loss Into motion in the A [3:06–3:24 | Bridge / Outro — half-sung, reflective] Keep it quiet Keep it true If you know me Then you knew I was built From what they threw Now I move How winners move [3:24–3:30 | Final tag] Motion in the A… Don’t twist my name.
