California Roll
Cali is the place to go
When your life is growing mold
Need your time to shine and glow
Need to climb up fast not slow
Catalyst for artists I swear
A jungle of snakes so just beware
Give you some tips to help you prepare
Gotta embrace or you'll have a nightmare
Hold your dream close
Keep your mind right
Mold your rhymes tight
Sweep your fight nights
Hesitation is our kryptonite
Confidence is a friendly knight
It'll help you to grab the mic
And motivation
Won't let you drown in
All that bat shit bad shit
Ratchet just a tad bit
Haters always at it
Playas never have it
Light em up
Show em you can craft it
Light em up
Smoke em with a smash hit
And until I run the game
I've got everything to gain
So I
Moved out west
So I could make my momma proud
Moved out west
To hone them east with west coast sounds
Surf these Cali vibes
Let them sink into your soul
So join me this float
Called the California Roll
Yeah, California Roll
It's called the California Roll
People like us
Need music in our life
Sitting in class
Overwhelming need to try
Far from perfect
At least I'm on track
Playing for gold
But ain't no king inside the game of rap
Now that I've had a sip
An itty bitty taste
So I gotta get a grip
An addict to the game
Since I learned to rap
I've never been the same
Screw the beaten trail
Got my reasons
I see the beyond the veil
I don't call that cheating
Most of the world is blinded in that
They be what they're supposed to
See what they're supposed to
But you and me
You see
We fight the riptide
Try to make our art our bride
Keep our nose to the grind
Live by the do or die
Living for the ones who died
Riding with the ones who try
Gotta take our shot
Gotta take our shot
Gotta find our peace of mind
Rap grew up with fathers like Eazy, Dre and Biggie too
And I'm not tryna change the game or disrespect the legends fool
Use the bass as a prop and
Rap with a drop
You can't deny that you'll groove
Til I merge the two
I got everything to lose
So I
Moved out west
So I could make my momma proud
Moved out west
To hone them east with west coast sounds
Surf these Cali vibes
Let them sink into your soul
So join me this float
Called the California Roll
Yeah, California Roll
It's called the California Roll
When your life is growing mold
Need your time to shine and glow
Need to climb up fast not slow
