[00:02.03] In my city,
[00:03.08] My city of sin,
[00:05.29] That's where it all started,
[00:07.46] That's where it all ends,
[00:10.27] In my city,
[00:11.71] My city of sin,
[00:13.68] In my city,
[00:15.77] In my city,
[00:17.93] In my city of sin,
[00:20.35] That's where it all ends,
[00:22.81] Just a young punk with a 100 bucks in my pocket,
[00:25.23] Had plans to come to LB and rocket,
[00:27.51] Our jobs pay minimum wage,
[00:29.47] thinking to myself theres got to be a better way,
[00:31.49] Grab my pen and pad and begin to write,
[00:33.46] Hone my skills and try to make em tight,
[00:35.65] Strap myself in for the bumpy flight,
[00:37.58] But my flame of fame yo it wouldn't ignite,
[00:39.75] They just didn't take me serious
[00:41.51] because I was to damn white,
[00:43.01] So I switched it up and joined a rock band,
[00:45.16] Same Big B just had a few more fans,
[00:47.03] It's true things never work out
[00:49.53] the way you want them to,
[00:50.72] Cu'z in a few years that band was through,
[00:52.83] In my city,
[00:55.02] My city of sin,
[00:57.15] That's where it all started,
[00:59.29] That's where it all ends,
[01:01.19] In my city,
[01:02.60] My city of sin,
[01:05.53] In my city,
[01:07.61] In my city,
[01:09.74] In my city of sin,
[01:12.40] That's where it all ends,
[01:14.83] Yea about my head,
[01:16.09] It broke my pride,
[01:17.08] I keep smiling but I hurt inside,
[01:19.33] I had to go back to a 9 to 5,
[01:21.52] Had to hustle late night just to get by,
[01:23.91] Drunk by day criminal by night,
[01:26.70] The end of my problems just wasn't in sight,
[01:28.94] Me and my girl had a second
[01:31.14] kid one the way but i was one step away
[01:33.40] from not having any place to stay,
[01:34.36] So i took the risk and did it big,
[01:35.73] Told god if this worked it would be my last gig,
[01:37.67] Next morning on the couch counting
[01:40.56] my cash thinking my freedom could have
[01:42.86] went so fast,
[01:43.61] I took a gasp and new i needed to
[01:44.80] get my shit together,
[01:48.72] In my city,
[01:51.21] My city of sin,
[01:53.33] That's where it all started,
[01:55.54] That's where it all ends,
[01:57.39] In my city,
[01:59.82] My city of sin,
[02:01.82] In my city,
[02:03.91] In my city,
[02:06.06] In my city of sin,
[02:08.50] That's where it all ends,
[02:10.74] As luck would have it or maybe its fate,
[02:12.68] To get another chance i wouldn't
[02:15.01] have long to wait,
[02:16.88] Got a call from a friend,
[02:17.87] Next thing you know I;m doing songs
[02:18.88] in the studio with OPM,
[02:20.22] Yea we did a few albums
[02:21.69] and i put a few bucks in my hand,
[02:24.00] And even though it didn't work out
[02:26.61] the way i thought it would,
[02:29.12] I got no regrets its all good,
[02:29.83] For the first time in my life
[02:30.44] I understand what it is to be a man,
[02:32.71] If you want something you can chase it,
[02:34.58] its your life you can live it or waste it,
[02:36.55] I might not have got a full plate,
[02:38.27] but at least i got to taste it,
[02:40.98] Not to many people will get the chance
[02:43.11] to do what i've done or see what i've seen,
[02:45.21] I got to see the other side,
[02:46.90] and i got to live my dream,
[02:48.25] I'd like to thank my friends and my family,
[02:51.71] and the Kottonmouth Kings
[02:53.14] for taking my under there wings, thank you,
[02:55.33] In my city,
[02:57.80] My city of sin,
[02:59.94] That's where it all started,
[03:02.11] That's where it all ends,
[03:04.03] In my city,
[03:05.34] My city of sin,
[03:08.48] In my city,
[03:10.39] In my city,
[03:12.55] In my city of sin,
[03:15.16] That's where it all ends,
[03:24.74]
