L.A.

The city of angels
Land of god
The city of demons
Plan for us
In the city of angels
In the land of god
In the city of demons
What's in the plan for us?

L.A., L.A
The place of all places
Drugged[?] juice in our faces
Can make it or break it
I stood on by the water
And watched him skip the line
One night it's gon' be me inside
God damn
It ain't easy, let me tell you
Accounts overdrawn
Doing sessions in the valley every other night
Connections only get you so far
So far
But oh, what a feeling (How's it feel?)
Oh, what a thrill (You a kid)
To look down from DC
Put the life I knew behind, but still
It's gon' feel for real, soon as I
Still ain't ate a meal

My stomach growling but I'm fucking styling
Spend my last 20 drunk, in Uber riding
Ain't nobody cutting checks, you ain't have to smile and
Shit takes all the talent, yeah
And it ain't that easy, let me tell you
Accounts overdrawn
Doing sessions in the valley every other night
And it goes on and on

I'm chasing something
[?]
Being a broke boy back at home
[?]
I'm making something good
It's getting no bigger than everything I ever know

L.A, L.A
Sun kissed [?]
Folks in tall riches, plus the bitches
I stood up by the water
Watched a peek inside
One day from now, we all can die
God damn
It ain't easy, let me tell you
Accounts overdrawn
Doing sessions in the valley every other night
Connections only get you so far
So far
But oh, what a feeling (How's it feel?)
Oh, what a thrill (You a kid)
To look down from DC
Put the life I knew behind, but still
It's gon' feel for real, soon as I
Still can't cut a deal

I want a Rollie, but it's moving slowly
Spend my last 20 buying drinks for homies
Everybody want to know me
Just to say you on me
Shit been getting phony

It ain't easy, let me tell you
Accounts overdrawn
Doing sessions in the valley every other night
Shit goes on and on
And I'm chasing something (Oh)
It's no better than being a broke boy back at home
Oh yes, [?]
Making something big
It's no bigger than anything I ever know
