[00:15.63] Yeah, Los Angeles,
[00:21.77] "Welcome to the Terrordome"
[00:23.02] City of Satan,
[00:24.14] Angels can't even get along
[00:25.58] No lie, my town covered in darkness
[00:28.04] Hoping that the sun just ************ne on us
[00:30.23] Rolling up the kush,
[00:31.02] Now I'm letting my mind wander
[00:32.62] Into another place,
[00:33.81] I ain't tryna go down under
[00:34.99] Life is like a race
[00:36.33] And we all tryna finish it
[00:37.57] ************t never fair,
[00:38.69] Strays hitting the innocent
[00:40.13] The good die young
[00:41.12] Where I'm from and it's sad to say
[00:42.94] That somebody gotta die today
[00:44.88] Tomorrow's never promised,
[00:47.34] But we living for the moment
[00:48.45] ******, time never stops,
[00:49.65] It just keeps on going
[00:51.02] Crackers just gave my young ****** four life sentences
[00:53.70] Twenty-five times four, ******,
[00:55.40] Do the math
[00:56.30] And the hood never have witnesses
[00:58.75] Cause if we did,
[00:59.96] Then them shots gon' blast
[01:02.00] As I reflect,
[01:03.40] I start realizing I wanna
[01:07.75] Make a way one day for me and my momma,
[01:10.89] Family and friends
[01:11.94] This ain't the way my life bout to end
[01:14.04] So I'm quick to grab on my pen and
[01:17.03] Give 'em something my people sure to feel
[01:18.98] Give 'em something that I know is all the way real
[01:22.21] Just wakin' up,
[01:23.16] Mind playing tricks on me
[01:24.60] Got the fifth on me,
[01:25.94] Gotta take a risk homie
[01:27.14] Was a ball player till the coach pissed on me
[01:29.41] Keep it real,
[01:30.86] I could take you down the list homie
[01:32.25] Be a tradition,
[01:33.72] See these Chucks be a mission
[01:34.71] Burner be the fuel to the flame,
[01:35.96] The key to the ignition
[01:37.00] If you banging, be serious,
[01:38.30] Boys run up in your pad
[01:40.04] Point-blank, period, moms ain't hearing it
[01:42.34] ******s said 'cuz lil ****** got blasted
[01:44.75] Oh well, give a ************t,
[01:46.31] Shouldn't half-assed it
[01:47.66] Only time you with it,
[01:49.08] When your ******s all tripping
[01:50.23] Caught your ass slipping,
[01:51.58] Now I'm stepping up my crip and steady dipping
[01:53.55] Riding through the city in lights, living it trife
[01:55.85] Wrong intersection, ready to fight
[01:57.44] Hopping out with my own agenda, who the contender?
[02:00.44] Better hope this mother****** jam (BLAHH!)
[02:03.26] As I reflect,
[02:05.00] I start realizing I wanna
[02:07.20] Make a way one day for me and my momma,
[02:12.67] Family and friends
[02:13.64] This ain't the way my life bout to end
[02:15.74] So I'm quick to grab on my pen and
[02:18.68] Give 'em something my people sure to feel
[02:20.72] Give 'em something that I know is all the way real
[02:23.57] Uh, as I'm hearing the first and second verse
[02:26.31] I try to ************yse the feeling that's felt in the song
[02:28.85] I want to tell Rock and Q to go to church
[02:31.11] But that's a hypocrite because I ain't been in so long
[02:33.66] I stare at the world from a righteous point of view
[02:36.26] And realize a crisis coming
[02:37.40] Novocain couldn't numb it,
[02:39.75] The pain is unbearable times two
[02:41.31] Let's rally a team, summon, and school the youth
[02:44.02] How you feel about it?
[02:44.86] Man, I feel the same way as you
[02:46.61] It hurts my soul, like a needle piercing
[02:49.22] Through the bottom of my shoe
[02:50.54] And if you behind bars
[02:51.60] Hold your head, pause
[02:54.59] And if you in close range
[02:56.49] With a ****** with a gun in his waist
[02:57.88] I pray the intervention is divine
[02:59.64] I got a cousin in jail and handful of homies in heaven
[03:02.84] But earlier than expected, what the hell?
[03:05.39] As I reflect,
[03:07.04] I start realizing I wanna
[03:08.64] Make a way one day for me and my momma,
[03:14.23] Family and friends
[03:15.22] This ain't the way my life bout to end
[03:17.46] So I'm quick to grab on my pen and
[03:20.56] Give 'em something my people sure to feel
[03:22.55] Give 'em something that I know is all the way real
