Feat. Fashawn COSS and Tiombe Lockhart

I woke up in this world


Yah yah woke up in the city as a deleric


The ghetto is my narative never been the same
After pop and mom decide to split
Stuck between the thankers and the Sunday morning terrors

Before I go to bed I nearly say a prayer everything
Product of the negligence ^!$$%s having mad run
Remember when Junior hits

He boning with the brass knuckles
Fronting like they hard the other day they ran from me
California dreaming nightmares understand struggle

To moms it was mad hustle even though I'm fatherless
15 years clean from the alcohol anonymous
Never got a trade I got a chance to get a doctorate

California dreaming tryna mend these broken promises
$#&@ this world and the politics this life is not a movie
Hang a picture on the wall try to radiate the beauty

My cali ^!$$%s stay on the grind
Another day another dollar and the 619
Swear some nights. I don't sleep cause the weight of

The world feel like the weight of my sheets
Cali streets wasn't meant for the humble of the need more
The jungle where we hunger for peace

Fumble a leaf the hood life-good life
I'm stuck in between
Wishing I could get my brothers a dream

Smth pushing us back like this warm enough stream
If I take another route will I make it out
Can't help a doubt cause it's a struggle

And reality bites the leader
Handle a pistol with passion with Mike and some Nikes
In a Jersey till you shoot like Cobey

Meanwhile I'm drowning in this bottle of E
Thinking how I've got a daughter to feed
And will I be around to water my seed? Just a thought

So much on my mind as I sit and unwind



[Hook]

Another day another dollar and the 619

Undefiant lost in L.A. times tryna figure out
My purpose everyday on this Earth what's my meaning?
When Cali's senseless they call my knuckle mind

Slipping on the Ave. and all his face on his shirt
Le Merc another day and word to them bangers
They be stacking up that paper in exchange to the work

A thousand planets a thrilion tons mass of the sun
Weight that equal to my burt and the weight of my herd
