rate me
INTRO:Dominque: What do you feel when you hear a record like Tupac's newone?
Man: I love Tupac's new record
Dominque: right, but don't you feel like that creates tension between
East and West?
Dominque: He's talking about killing people, I had sex with your wife
and not in those words, but
he's talking about I wanna see you deceased. (after each question or
sentence, a sound affect get'slouder and louder untill Domique's last words)
Tupac:No doughtTo Live & Die in LACalifornia--whatcha saying about Los Angeles
still the only place for me that never ?To Live and Die in LA
when everyday we try a fatin' our pockets
Us niggas' hustle for the cash so it's hard to knock it
Everybody got their own thang currency chasin'
World wide thru the hard times worrying faces
Shed tears as we burry niggas' close to heart
Oh was a friend now a ghost in the dark
Cold hearted--my nigga got smoked by a feenTrying to floss on em'
blind to a broken man's dreama hard lesson--caught cases--keep who's guessin'
plea bargain aint an option now--so I'm stessin'
Cost me more to be free than a life in the penn
making money off of cuss words--writing again
Learn how to think ahead--so I fight with my pin
late night down Sunset like in a sceneWhat's the worst they could do to a nigga
got me lost in hell--To Live and Die in LAon bail--my angels sing...
Chorus: To live and Die in La, it's the place to be
you've got to be there to know itwhere everybody wanna see
It's the city of angles and constant danger
South Central LA--can't get no strangerfull of drama like a soap opera
on the curbwatching the ghetto bird hellocoptersI observe--so many niggas'
getting 3 strikes--tossed in jailso where's the penn--right across from hell
I can't cry--cause it's on nowliving life thug style--so I can't smile
writing to my peopleswhen they ask for pictures50 cali thug niggas[haha]
better learn about the dress codeB's and C's--all them other niggas' copycats
these is G'sI love Cali like I love womancause every nigga in LA
gotta little bit of thug in em' We might fight with each other
but I promise you thiswe will burn this shit down--get us piss
To Live & Die in LAChorus: To Live & Die in LA, it's the place to be
[Tupac: Let my angel sing]you've got to be there to know it
where everybody wanna see What would be LA with out Mexicans
Black love--Brown pridein the set's again--Pete Wilsontrying to see us all broke
remember K dayweekends--crenshaw--MLKautomatics rang free cause
niggas' lost their waygang signs being showednigga love your hood
but reconize and it's all goodwhere the weed at--niggas getting shermed out

Dogg Pound in the Lexwith an ounce to burngot them watts niggas with me
