Ace Hood At War

Ace Hood’s newest album M.I.N.D., which stands for Memories Inside Never Die, explicates all of the work that Ace Hood has been doing on himself in recent years. The direction of the project is noted from the jump, as “At War” serves as the first full song after the intro piece. Hood sounds hungry, dedicated, and devoted to his new lifestyle, while also understanding his shortcomings and how he exists within the system.

The first minute of “At War” is Ace Hood speaking on his surroundings, Black America in historical and current context, the worldwide trauma we as Black people endure, etc. There’s an awareness in his delivery that lends to the subject matter, else it would come off as shallow and gimmicky, as these topics can easily fall to redundancy.

Ace Hood also made sure to evolve his sound with the times. “At War” doesn’t sound at all dated, fitting into Hip Hop’s current mainstream schema.

Lyrics

O THESE DAYS EVERY CLIP IS COMING FULLY LOADED..
CAN’T TAKE NO CHANCES CUZ THIS WORLD DONE GOT ME CLOSTERFOBIC ..
THE GOVERNMENT GONE PLAY THEY HAND BUT THEY GONE SUGAR COATED…
WHILE COPS ARE BEATING UP THE ONES WHO GOT THEY FREEDOM STOLEN..
I SEE THE PAIN IN ALL THEM PEOPLE I CAN’T HELP BUT NOTICE..
MY GRANNY SAID THEM HEAVY PRESSURES AIN’T FOR US TO TOT IT ..
GIVE IT TO GOD YOU KNOW I’M TRYING BUT SOME MY THOUGHTS CORRODED ..
SOMETIMES I WANNA SAY JUST FUCK IT ALL I NEED A MOMENT …
I KNOW YOU PRAY I DON’T SUCCEED SOME PEOPLE WAITING ON IT..
BUT AS I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY AND THE SHADOW OF DEATH
KNOW EVERY WEAPON FORMED AGAINST ME WAS A TEST OF MYSELF
THIS SONG MAY NEVA DO A THING BUT THE INTENTION WAS THERE
PRAY 4 HAITI
HOOK)
PRAY PRAY 4 HAITI…
I BEEN ON THIS JOURNEY ALONE I KNOW NOBODY GONE SAVE ME ..
I CAN NEVER FATHOM THE FEARS THE PEOPLE LIVING IN DAILY ..
WHITE MAN SWINGING A SWITCH DAWG THAT IMAGES IS CRAZY…
LIKE 30’S BACK IN SLAVERY..
WHERE MY ANCESTORS SHOWED US WHAT WAS BRAVERY…KEEP AN ARMY LIKE NAVY
GO OUT BUSSIN LIKE I MUST PROTECT THE BABIES
VERSE)
I AIN’T GONE LIE BEFORE I START DIS SHIT HERE TOO TRAUMATIC..
SO MANY PEOPLE GONE SECONDS FROM THIS COVID ACTION…
AND THESE DAYS I’M FEELING LOWER THAN MY NORMAL FASHION ….
IF IM NOT LINING WIT MY PURPOSE IM NOT FULLY HAPPY..
I GET THIS SHIT HERE FROM THE SOURCE AND YOU CAN’T MIRROR MATCH IT ..
AIN’T NOTHING REALA THAN ME HEALING UP THIS MENTAL DAMAGE …EVERYONE VANISHED I DIDNT PANIC JUST UP THE STANDARDS
WITHOUT THE HYPE OR MAJOR LABEL STILL DO HEAVY TRACTION..
DID ALL THAT CAPPING BOUT YO ALBUM SHIT WAS BARELY AVERAGE ..
I LIKE MY INCOME WHEN IT’S PASSIVE AND MY LIFE LAVISH
I GET THIS SHIT HERE FROM THE SOURCE AND YOU CAN’T MIRROR MATCH IT
THAT LOYALTY WENT OUT THE WINDOW ONCE THEY TOOK ADVANTAGE..
I AIN’T GONE LIE WHAT’S ON MY PLATE NOW I CAN BARELY MANAGE….MY INDEPENDENT PLATE BIGGER THAN LAST MY PALLET..
LIVING IN MY PRACTICE ALKALININ ON SOME PRIVATE ISLAND..
REALLY IM BREATHING, CALM THE MIND’N I’M CHAKRA ALIGN’N
PRAY PRAY 4 HAITI…
I BEEN ON THIS JOURNEY ALONE I KNOW NOBODY GONE SAVE ME ..
I CAN NEVER FATHOM THE FEARS THE PEOPLE LIVING IN DAILY ..
WHITE MAN SWINGING A SWITCH, DAWG THAT IMAGE IS CRAZY.
