Ty Dolla $ign - LA (Feat. Kendrick Lamar, Brandy & James Fauntleroy)

It's just me out here
At least that's what it feels like
They said I wouldn't make it
That this was a city
of broken dreams
But somehow
los angels broke cages
They seen animals
we made stages
Became famous by freeing
the world of their own danger
Prison mentalities we're all
hanging from propaganda
Victim blaming all divided with
remainders of Mike's
Trayvon's and Oscar's
Given to common legends
no acting
The new Selma is happening
right now
Momma I made it
I killed this freestyle
before they killed me
They saw Rodney you saw a king
Realize how powerful you are
and break free
LA
can't believe I found love
in the city of LA
LA
it's the city of angels
it can take you anywhere
LA LA LA
we found love in
LA LA LA
We found love
In the city of the gang bang
Yeah we still dying over
red and blue stripes
Chuck my set up and it feel good
Cause don't nobody love you
more than your neighborhood
We always had bitches
we don't love those
Grew up around the gangsters
and the cutthroats
Be careful where you at
you might get bust on
Yeah
all my South Central niggas
Inglewood twist your fingers up
Compton and Watts Eastside
always turning up
Bad bitches up at Greystone
and Supperclub
Tell 'em where we're from like
LA
can't believe I found love
in the city of LA
LA
it's the city of angels
it can take you anywhere
LA LA LA
we found love in
LA LA LA
We found love
God let me right my wrongs
God let me write this song
God in the middle with a month
Let me hit the pawn shop
momma said we need a loan
God let me dedicate this to the
80% that ain't never coming home
God let me know you exist
In a city where a hundred
hollow tips get thrown
I'm off that Centennial
Fuckin' at the party nigga
at the party we fade ten or more
My hood came thinkin' we yellin'
We in this bitch
Then we yellin'
We in your bitch
Or you tellin' all of us our
dwellin' inside of 2Pacalypse
thug life
And we off that
whoopty whoopty whoop
And we in that hoopty
with the two choppers
So we're guaranteed to shoot
Lock us in the LA County zoo
Watch us eat a bear alive and ooh
This feels so good to keep it true
This feels so good
I'm keepin' you
Hope I'm teachin' you
all the lessons I learned
When I made that turn off the 110
Watch that marijuana just burn
This shit just make
you wanna just sin
See that Staples Center high
earnin' if the Lakers get me a win
I'm gon' liquor shot in memory
of Pac Makaveli live again
Bitch I'm in bitch I'm in
LA
can't believe I found love
in the city of LA
LA
it's the city of angels
it can take you anywhere
LA LA LA
we found love in
LA LA LA
We found love
My nigga so many fell down
round here and they won't tell
And I ain't talking love girl
but I know how you feel
And you've been living in fear
Remember I'm right here
They got your world on wheels
Girl let's roll through them
hills off the ten
Rolling with ya cousin and em
Real shit ain't nobody fake
that isn't it from me
City of LA
City of LA
City of LA
City of LA
South Central
Inglewood
City of LA
Compton
Long Beach
Watts City
LA
LA
can't believe I found love
in the city of LA
LA
it's the city of angels
it can take you anywhere
LA LA LA
we found love in
LA LA LA
We found love
This is where it started
all off nigga
But now look at
where we at now
like what the fuck I mean you
you the first song is LA
So then after that
we'll LA all over the world
