In Stereo
Aceyalone Lyrics

What is that.. in the stereo
Asking what the listeners hear coming from their stereo

That's Acey/A.C. - Automatic Control
Answering the previous question by stating that what they hear is Aceyalone's music

I can leap over a buildin with the greatest of ease
Expressing confidence in his abilities to perform extraordinary feats

Get up and rock the party like you wouldn't believe
Claiming to be able to energize a crowd and create a memorable experience

Get everybody goin they'll be gone with the wind
Suggesting that he can get people so excited that they lose themselves in the moment

Go all around the world come back and do it again
Implying that he has a global appeal and can repeat his success anywhere

I can really rip a rapper for whatever it's worth
Asserting his ability to compete against other rappers and emerge victorious

And introduce you to the greatest show on earth
Promising to deliver a captivating and exceptional performance

Oh it's beautiful, isn't it? I had it since birth
Reflecting on his natural talent and expressing pride in it

And it feels so incredible when I'm puttin in work
Saying that he derives pleasure from working hard and putting on a great show

It's like I'm headed for heights, I'm ready to fight
Using a metaphor to describe his determination to reach his goals and overcome obstacles

They said it be light, they said it be bright
Referencing other people's expectations and predicting that he will surpass them

I said am I right, now what's the use of rockin my boat
Questioning why anyone would try to disrupt his progress or challenge him

Well any way you rock it I'ma keep it afloat
Declaring that he will remain resilient and succeed regardless of the circumstances

It's like I fly in the ocean, I swim in the sky
Using a contradictory metaphor to describe his versatility and skillful navigation of different environments

I'm live in a stereo, I'm so energized
Expressing excitement about the energy and power present in his music

For all of you guys, and all of you gals
Addressing his audience and acknowledging their presence

This is what they sayin when they hearin them styles
Referring to the reactions of listeners to his music and style

Off the head to head, born to dead
Rhyming and highlighting his freestyle ability and claiming to be destined for greatness

Arm Leg Leg Arm back to Head
Continuing to rhyme and creating an image of a human form

Hmm, infrared, telescopic
Using science and technology terminology to describe the advanced quality of his music

Audio'll transmit fiberoptics
Comparing the transmission of his music to that of fiber optic data

The speed of sound, in full surround
Describing the immersive and powerful nature of his music

A full metal jacket with a new compound
Drawing a comparison between his music and a strong, durable material

Amplified, deep and wide
Providing more detail about the quality and effect of his music

Jump into your ride and lean to the side
Encouraging listeners to get excited and dance to his music

Lo and behold I hit the Project Blowed road
Referencing Project Blowed, a hip-hop collective that Aceyalone was associated with

Headed for the mountaintop, lookin for gold mode
Using more metaphors to describe his ambition and desire for success

I sold the gold but never sold the form
Suggesting that he has changed his style over time but kept the fundamental elements of his music intact

It's hot it's cold it's warm throughout the storm
Using weather imagery to describe his music's ability to adapt and persevere through challenges

Freakazoids, electric ladies
Addressing his female fans and using playful language to describe them

Radioactive robotic babies
Using several adjectives to create a unique and futuristic image

Fuel-injection and dual exhausts
Continuing to evoke a sense of power and speed similar to that of a car

A cable antenna when the signal is lost
Using a metaphor to say that his music can connect with listeners even when they are lost or disconnected

All up in your circuit breaker, doin my thing
Describing his presence and impact on a listener's mind

Yo crank it to the maximum oh WHAT a machine
Encouraging listeners to turn up the volume and maximize their enjoyment of his music

Movin in slow-mo, not makin a fuss
Describing a relaxed but confident approach to making music that still has an impact

All of a sudden when they push the button I get a rush I'm gone
Indicating that he still finds joy and excitement in making and performing music

Climbin up the walls y'all, under your skin
Using more imagery to describe the intense emotional impact of his music

I know it's gonna happen but I'm wonderin when
Acknowledging that his success will come but expressing a desire for it to happen soon

So I pace myself, and brace myself
Explaining his approach to achieving success and coping with challenges

Just in case myself, want to try to get away from me
Acknowledging that some people may try to distance themselves from him or his music

My main objective, remain effective
Summarizing his ultimate goal and motivation for making music

Fuse together rhythms that'll keep you connected
Using a metaphor to describe how his music can bring people together and create unity

Misdirected, disengaged
Recognizing that some listeners may not understand or appreciate his music

Disinfected, a brand new page
Using more metaphors to describe his ability to start fresh and continue to evolve

Hit the corners and hug the curbs
Using a driving metaphor to indicate his precision and control

Smash on the gas that's all you heard
Encouraging listeners to embrace his music's energy and intensity

Check the monitors, heatin up thermometer
Suggesting that his music is so powerful it can affect the temperature around it

Live wire kiss and you Twist like Oliver
Using a final metaphor to describe the electrifying and transformative effect of his music

AHHH! That's Acey/A.C. - Automatic Control
Repeating the chorus to reinforce the idea that the listeners are hearing Aceyalone's music
