[Verse 1: Ray Wright] Never been the nigga ta front cuz boy I used to get fronted OG at 23 a P he shippin q's for 12 hundred That was a different day, cuffed it from Jackie he knew I’d pay Had me a couple hoes just needed a Lac or a Chevrolet Rebuilt a 7-9, full amount til this day I ain’t paid I’ll get em back one day, they was rippin off niggas anyway It ain’t no thang though The world keep spinnin I kept grindin Getchyo change yo The kid kept spittin he keep climbin It’s a - Hard enough job tryin to stay on top Just a dope young hood star got bustas sayin ima flop tryin to help the homies out cuz I got niggas gettin shot done felt my fair share of droughts now im takin these niggas spots
I moved from section to section Fucked up n learned a few lessons Served some payback wit no blessings I be so deep in my sessions It can’t be no more digressions I ask these niggas a question They response sound like they guessin I pay it forward n press em
Cuz this is California Westside Los Angeles ya dig I bend me a corner, blow marijuana do it big Ain't self made or selfish, iIsplit the profit wit my click Linguini wit shell fish, then blow some ones n hit the strip I’m thrustin my pelvis, until she feel it in her tits So transcontinental, we sippin liquor at the Ritz Somewhere in south London, mayn catch me Stuntin wit jay prince Get bread in abundance, break off my kin and never switch Mundo -
[Hook 1: Ray Wright] I love my city, yea i love my dawgs Ya told me don’t trip nigga I’ma pay it forward Cuz me and you go back before I had no dough for shoes, no-where to go
But mayn I love this city, ion love these hoes On a mission for the scritch n nigga everybody know Yea Its the 1 the 2 the 3 the 4 Westside Dub B O - P - M at yo door
[Verse 2: SERK] Yo keeping a shell around my mind a mental terrapin Tearing out my break line can't slow down So close i can taste this shit Standin up on a precipice of pullin up a generation But I can't forget the many lessons that it took to raise a nigga Land of the villain vacay Scam everyday for the payday Fam when I’m callin mayday Come on nigga you know That I'm really puttin work in On my back got a Kerchek Gotta rap with a purpose On the path for the curses Blessings and questions this shit is a quest For the best days Call me a rookie seen veteran thangs Call me a bookie I bet ima win Gotta keep pushin for the folks that held me down for ages Before a nigga ever had a dream of puttin the pen to pages Nigga had a team always leaned Settin some expectations To my niggas a million thanks For the support and patience Went from the poor to the paid Weather the storm n remained Our rapport never break Nigga there's more to claim Lets pour the pain N sip it we the champs Ain't nothing more to say I say I say I say I say
[Hook 2: Ray Wright]
[Verse 3: Manu Li] Me and you was jackin brews that was before the pub deal Me and you would kick it all the time wit nothin not nihil So much time to kill Simple days were plain lays chips On the days I'm most passed these are the most missed But we Johnny we good we cash we Carson If I sing these blues in folsom till my grave n coffin If you got stabbed like Haley Joel Osmond I'll head to Slauson I'm making a tee for you I'll know what to sing I'll know how to grief You Remember playing madden till yo auntie told us turn that shit off. We only got older it's crazy how we fell this far off We went from talking everyday to just not talking at all I guess that’s just how we grew up I know it's nobody's fault And it's not like me Talking behind your back or bash you but I just gotta ask you If you got a new number you never reply Yeah I just gotta ask you Yeah I thought that I saw you you never said hi Or was it goodbye I hope you know I know I know I know I know
