| With brothas always smokin' on the doja
|
| The OPM
|
| Damn we rollin
|
| Hand on the mic
|
| Till we decide about the sick life
|
| Californ-i-a born and raised till this very day
|
| Hell to pay for the ways of the size we blaze
|
| Everyday, a hundred miles an hour
|
| Sorta sour cause my soul’s been devoured
|
| Never looked up above
|
| When push came to shove
|
| As it usually does
|
| Keepin' up with these thugs
|
| Doin' all of these drugs with no means of direction
|
| Infection
|
| But here’s my objection
|
| Rejection
|
| By your whole congregation
|
| With no empathy for my situation
|
| No place in society thats my reality
|
| Angry dont know whos the enemy
|
| I’m in deep
|
| Beneath the streets
|
| It’s hard to creep from city to city
|
| With all these hitters and the heat
|
| Killin' me, stealin from me
|
| Makes no sense to me
|
| So I keep it tight with the homies in the family
|
| Here’s a reality check from the streets of California
|
| Keep your eyes wide open to what’s really goin' on, yo
|
| Things ain’t always what they seem
|
| Things ain’t always what they seem
|
| Here’s a reality check from the streets of California
|
| Keep your eyes wide open to what’s really goin' on, yo
|
| Things ain’t always what they seem
|
| Things ain’t always what they seem
|
| We’re all smokin
|
| Tryin' the SO’s
|
| Broken homes
|
| Chokin' locos
|
| For pesos
|
| Slingin' dope by the case-os
|
| Smokin' cocos
|
| Laced with angel dust and opium
|
| Cities for niggas causin' fuckin' pandemonium
|
| Spoiled by suburbia
|
| Cottonmouth what then all the man
|
| Formin' corny reputations
|
| Bustin' tracks from Kid Kreation
|
| Me and the artists who performed the hardest collaberations
|
| Born and raised in the golden state
|
| Don’t invite no plates
|
| Servin' up some dinner
|
| For southern county serial sinner
|
| Imperial
|
| Superial lyrical
|
| In again
|
| See the opium den
|
| We see the man who posed prohibitin'
|
| And drop a eight to eliminate a peaceful
|
| Evolution of man
|
| For your political pollution
|
| There’s no solution for these county criminal minds
|
| Just subliminal rhymes
|
| Hypnotizing mankind
|
| Here’s a reality check from the streets of California
|
| Keep your eyes wide open to what’s really goin' on yo
|

|
| Heres a reality check from the streets of Califonia
|
| See California the major growth industry
|
| Are private security and penitentiary
|
| Risin from the climatose
|
| Cold-war economies
|
| That’s why the pigs got my homies down on their knees
|
| Lined up against the walls
|
| So the community can see
|
| That the po po won’t go away
|
| So please, now
|
| Open up your eyes guys
|
| You can realize
|
| That the land of sunny skies
|
| Disguised as paradise
|
| Is a lie
|
| Here’s a reality check from the streets of California
|
| Keep your eyes wide open to what’s really goin' on yo
