Raised in Gwinnett County, Rittz embodies the same level of irony and self-conflict as his hometown. Born into a musical family, he, his twin sister and their brother had always been exposed to the inner workings of music. The fact that their parents were heavily into rock and roll ensured that the kids were always around instruments or in studios. The family moved from small-town Pennsylvania (Waynesburg) to the Atlanta outskirts when he was eight years old, and once Rittz got to junior high, his musical tastes evolved. Atlanta’s booming bass and rap movement had traveled north on I-85 to get the entire metro area jumping.

In My Zone
Rittz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
I've got sunshine in my pocket, I'm just right here in my zone
I've got Sade in my tape deck, I'm just movin' right along
All these haters really love me, they just pretend that they don't
'Cause I've got sunshine in my pocket, I'm just right here in my zone
In my zone
(Zo-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)
In my zone (zo-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)
In my zone (zo-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)
When I'm in my, when I'm in my
(Zo-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh) in my zone
In my old school bumpin' that "Kiss of Life" beneath the city lights
Caught up in the moment, getting misty eyed
'Bout to give my past life a long kiss goodnight
This dream difficult for me to visualize
And that was real when they said the limit is the sky
But my feets on solid ground, no more stalling now
On the road to get it 'cause, when it rain, it pour
But now the storm finally calming down
Up in my cutlass driving, the sun is shining
My Strange piece studded with a ton of diamonds
I ain't got a bunch of money 'cause it cost to grind
Silly beats being burnt up with my stomach growlin'
In the darkest island, got the heart to fight
I see the stars are bright, they screaming Jonny Valiant
Rappers wanna bite me, they crocodiling
I'll be up in Neiman Marcus smiling
Try to walk a mile inside my J's, playing make believe
You could say that you played in the major league
Wear my heart on my sleeve on the stage and leave
I feel wet from the sweat on my famous tee
I'm never scared, fuck shaking like a maple leaf
'Cause runaways for me is unknown
So I lit up my J, from a kid up was straight
Crown Royal, now I'm in my zone
I've got sunshine in my pocket, I'm just right here in my zone
I've got Sade in my tape deck, I'm just movin' right along
All these haters really love me, they just pretend that they don't
'Cause I've got sunshine in my pocket, I'm just right here in my zone
In my zone
This ain't no ordinary, dog
I was sick of being poor and said enough
Right up 85 North, I never was
Working, breaking down doors and barriers
Still representing Georgia, I'm feeling the support
Spread the word 'cause the more, the merrier
Nobody blowing off the torch I carry
Got annoyed from every time they point and stare and judge
All because I got Jordans on, I got a gorgeous blonde
And my jewelry blinds, I got stupid style
Getting' paid doing music now, I'm putting' huge amounts
Inside a few accounts, I got a crew that's down
In case you wanna come and duke it out
If I was you, I'd throw the deuce and bounce
And we just blew an ounce
My hotel room looking like a hookah lounge
I'm blowing up like a bazooka round
I got booed and bowed but stayed positive
Even when I didn't have a pot to piss in
I was sitting on a bottle steady plotting this
And I'll be fine dining at The Optimist
I got the backseat bass and the lobster bisk
And took a shot of whiskey to the dome
Made a toast to the homies that are gone
Two for the fans and the love they shown
(I'm in my zone) I've got sunshine in my pocket, I'm just right here in my zone
I've got Sade in my tape deck, I'm just movin' right along
All these haters really love me, they just pretend that they don't
'Cause I've got sunshine in my pocket, I'm just right here in my zone
In my zone
My calendar at this caliber's for the life of a bachelor
I'm burning through cannabis canister after canister
Um, so many cameras, they flashing, I never glance at 'em
Lost inside of a landfill of thoughts while watching this dancer
I'm wondering to myself if she's got some booty enhancer
Either way, I feel the deep inclination of putting my hands on 'er
I'm a modern day Galileo who lives in Atlanta
The capital of the ratchets, aristocrats and traffickers
A practitioner, practice until I master it
Passionate 'bout my adjectives, syllables so elaborate
Anything less to describe me is just inaccurate
You're a student of classes in which I am a graduate
Immaculate vernacular, Bat-mobile look like Dracula
Giving these boys the blues while telling these hoes to saddle up
You catching feelings, I think you squarer than Madison, I'm
I'm in my zone, ain't no way I'll ever snap out of it
I've got sunshine in my pocket, I'm just right here in my zone
I've got Sade in my tape deck, I'm just movin' right along
All these haters really love me, they just pretend that they don't
'Cause I've got sunshine in my pocket, I'm just right here in my zone
In my zone
Zo-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh (in my zone)
Zo-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh (in my zone)
I've got Sade in my tape deck, I'm just movin' right along
All these haters really love me, they just pretend that they don't
'Cause I've got sunshine in my pocket, I'm just right here in my zone
In my zone
(Zo-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)
In my zone (zo-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)
When I'm in my, when I'm in my
(Zo-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh) in my zone
In my old school bumpin' that "Kiss of Life" beneath the city lights
