| California ain't a state it's an army
|
| One motherfucker in the projects killin'
|
| The same motherfucker that'll burn down the village
|
| With a chronic blunt full of that you know who gon
|
| Take you back to Compton in that 6-4 two-door
|
| Sub whoofers in the trunk kickin that lethal injection
|
| A hood nigga lost with no direction
|
| So he bought a blacksmith in western strapped on his vest and that's his protection
|
| At the intersection waitin on a rival cause in the city of angels it's all about survival
|
| Fuck the 5-0 they wanna see you D.O.A welcome to L.A.
|
| Where the ghetto birds flying over my auntie's and my cousin house
|
| Tell me what they buzzin 'bout the lil homie got smoked on the corner
|
| And now his momma cryin dead in California
|
| Ice Cube:
|
| Motherfuckers ain't gon learn till the chronic blunt don't burn
|
| And you can't see nothin' but the ghetto bird light shining through the fuckin' palm trees
|
| The Game:
|
| California ain't a state it's a army
|
| Motherfuckers ain't gon learn till the chronic blunt don't burn
|
| And you can't see nothin' but the ghetto bird light shining through the fuckin' palm trees
|
| Ice Cube:
|
| California ain't a state it's a army
|
| Jumped in my impala took a trip to the swap meet
|
| To scoop up ego trippin' and a white tee
|
| Cause some niggas in my old hood don't like me
|
| Time to put they ass in check like my nikes
|
| Shoulda hit my nigga mack 10 on the chirp
|
| All I need is me and my bitch if you scared go to church
|
| Cause them California niggas crack heads for the turf
|
| And life ain't nothin' but tech nines and dirt
|
| Dippin through the jungles my escalade hit a dip fuck
|
| Here come the gorillas in the mist
|
| And they dressed like ice cube was in 96'
|
| Stone cold jehri curls not one drip
|
| I'll sleep with the worms 'fore I swim with the fish
|
| And I'll ride with my niggas 'fore I roll with a bitch
|
| If it don't make dollars it don't make sense
|
| And I almost got shot 'cause I couldn't hit a fence
|
| Ice Cube:
|
| Motherfuckers ain't gon learn till the chronic blunt don't burn
|
| And you can't see nothin' but the ghetto bird light shining through the fuckin' palm trees
|
| The Game:
|
| California ain't a state it's a army

|

|
| Ice Cube:
|
| California ain't a state it's a army
|
| Call the U.S. government and tell 'em it's a motherfuckin code red
|
| Niggas try to straight up jack me now they both dead
|
| Third lil nigga got away on his moped
|
| Caught him round the corner put the beam on his forehead
|
| Jumped in the impala then smashed through the light
|
| Without him one time in sight so I bust a right
|
| Oh century headed to the L.A.X where ain't nothin' but fly bitches and jets
|
| In and out of lanes and I almost wrecked out brand nigga in a 600 throwin' up the set
|
| He must don't know I got the 40 on deck and the tech
|
| Tryna be shabba ranks time to flex thas the third time this shit happened to me all day
|
| Guess it's time to add another dead body to the doorway
|
| So I turned down my spice one tape and hit the switch
|
| Emptied the whole clip in his fuckin' face
|
| Ice Cube:
|
| Motherfuckers ain't gon learn till the chronic blunt don't burn
|
