California... knows how to party
4
California... knows how to party
5
In the citaaay of L.A.
6
In the citaaay of good ol' Watts
7
In the citaaay, the city of Compton
8
We keep it rockin! We keep it rockin!
9
Now let me welcome everybody to the wild, wild west
10
A state that's untouchable like Elliot Ness
11
The track hits ya eardrum like a slug to ya chest
12
Pack a vest for your Jimmy in the city of sex
13
We in that sunshine state with a bomb ass hemp beat
14
the state where ya never find a dance floor empty
15
And pimps be on a mission for them greens
16
lean mean money-makin-machines servin fiends
17
I been in the game for ten years makin rap tunes
18
ever since honeys was wearin sassoon
19
Now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me
20
Diamonds shinin lookin like I robbed Liberace
21
It's all good, from Diego to tha Bay
22
Your city is tha bomb if your city makin pay

Throw up a finger if ya feel the same way

32
Out on bail fresh outta jail, California dreamin
33
Soon as I stepped on the scene, I'm hearin hoochies screamin
34
Fiendin for money and alcohol
35
the life of a west side playa where cowards die
36
Only in Cali where we riot not rally to live and die
37
In L.A. we wearin Chucks not Ballies (that's right)
38
Dressed in Locs and khaki suits and ride is what we do
39
Flossin but have caution we collide with other crews
40
Famous cause we program worldwide
41
Let'em recognize from Long Beach to Rose Grands
42
Bumpin and grindin like a slow jam, it's west side
43
So you know the row won't bow down to no man
44
Say what you say
45
But give me that bomb beat from Dre
46
Let me serenade the streets of L.A.
47
From Oakland to Sacktown
48
The Bay Area and back down
49
Cali is where they put they mack down
50

So Many Tears
69
I shall not fear no man but God
70
Though I walk through the valley of death
71
I shed so many tears (if I should die before I wake)
72
Please God walk with me (grab a nigga and take me to Heaven)
73
Back in elementary, I thrived on misery
74
Left me alone I grew up amongst a dyin breed
75
Inside my mind couldn't find a place to rest
76
until I got that Thug Life tatted on my chest
77
Tell me can you feel me? I'm not livin in the past, you wanna last
78
Be tha first to blast, remember Kato
79
No longer with us he's deceased
80
Call on the sirens, seen him murdered in the streets
81
Now rest in peace
82
Is there heaven for a G? Remember me
83
So many homies in the cemetery, shed so many tears
84
Ahh, I suffered through the years, and shed so many tears..
85
Lord, I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears
86
Now that I'm strugglin in this business, by any means
87
Label me greedy gettin green, but seldom seen
88
And fuck the world cause I'm cursed, I'm havin visions
89
of leavin here in a hearse, God can you feel me?
90
Take me away from all the pressure, and all the pain
91
Show me some happiness again, I'm goin blind
92
I spend my time in this cell, ain't livin well
93
I know my destiny is Hell, where did I fail?
94
My life is in denial, and when I die,
95
baptized in eternal fire I'll shed so many tears
96
Lord, I suffered through the years, and shed so many tears...
97
Lord, I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears
98
Now I'm lost and I'm weary, so many tears
99
I'm suicidal, so don't stand near me
100
My every move is a calculated step, to bring me closer
101
to embrace an early death, now there's nothin left
102
There was no mercy on the streets, I couldn't rest
103
I'm barely standin, bout to go to pieces, screamin peace
104
And though my soul was deleted, I couldn't see it
105
I had my mind full of demons tryin to break free
106
They planted seeds and they hatched, sparkin the flame
107
inside my brain like a match, such a dirty game
108
No memories, just a misery
109
Paintin a picture of my enemies killin me, in my sleep
110
Will I survive til the mo'nin, to see the sun
111
Please Lord forgive me for my sins, cause here I come...
112
Lord, I suffered through the years (God) and shed so many tears...
113
God, I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears
114
Lord knows I.. tried, been a witness to homicide
115
Seen drivebys takin lives, little kids die
116
Wonder why as I walk by
117
Broken-hearted as I glance at the chalk line, gettin high
118
This ain't the life for me, I wanna change
119
But ain't no future right for me, I'm stuck in the game
120
I'm trapped inside a maze
121
See this Tanqueray influenced me to gettin crazy
122
Disillusioned lately, I've been really wantin babies
123
so I could see a part of me that wasn't always shady
124
Don't trust my lady, cause she's a product of this poison
125
I'm hearin noises, think she fuckin all my boys, can't take no more
126
I'm fallin to the floor; beggin for the Lord to let me in
127
to Heaven's door -- shed so many tears
128
(Dear God, please let me in)
129
Lord, I've lost so many years, and shed so many tears...
130
I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears
131
Lord, I suffered through the years, and shed so many tears...
132
God, I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears
