City of Angels, land of God
The city of demons, looking for us
The City of Angels, land of God
The city of demons, looking for us

L. A. , L. A
The place of all places
Drug use and dark faces can make or break you
I stood on by the water and watched him skip the line
One night it s gon be me inside

Goddamn, it ain t easy let me tell ya
Account is overdrawn doing sessions in the valley
Every other night
Connections only get you so far, so far

But oh, what a feeling (how it feels)
Oh, what a thrill (you will kill)
To look down from these hills
Put the life I knew behind, but still
This don t feel for real

Cause I still ain t ate a meal
My stomach growling, but I m fucking styling
Spent my last twenty drunk and Uber riding
Ain t nobody cutting checks if you ain t happy smiling
This shit tastes all Italian

And it ain t easy let me tell ya
Account is overdrawn doing sessions in the valley
Every other night
And it goes on and on

Yeah, I m proud that I m chasing something
Cause I don t know better
than being broke, bored and back at home
Oh, this is all hope I m making something
Cause I don t know bigger than any fling I ever known

L. A. , L. A
This sunken shine fishes
With the folks in tall riches and plus the bitches
I stood off by the water, watched them pick a side
One day from now we all could die

God damn, it ain t easy let me tell ya
Account is overdrawn doing sessions
in the valley every other night
Connections only get you so far, so far

But oh, what a feeling (how it feels)
Oh, what a thrill (you will kill)
To look down from these hills
Put the life I knew behind, but still
This don t feel for real

Cause I still can t cut a deal
I wanna a rollie, but it s moving slowly
Spent my last twenty buying drinks for homies
And everybody wanna know me
Just to say you own me
Shit been getting phony

Damn, it ain t easy let me tell ya
Account is overdrawn doing sessions in the valley
Every other night
And shit goes on and on

Yeah, I m proud that I m chasing something
Cause I don t know better
than being broke, bored and back at home
Oh, this is all hope I m making something
Cause I don t know bigger than any fling I ever known
