At this time, please extinguish all smoking materials |
|
Return all seat backs, and tray tables |
|
To their most upright, and long position |
|
Also at this time please take care to fasten your seatbelt |
|
Enjoy your stay, welcome to l.a. |
|
Chorus: xzibit |
|
Welcome to l.a. |
|
Where you can see the whole city burning |
|
Cause the cops got uzis and the dealers keep serving |
|
And your kids ain't learning shit, except this |
|
Sex power and wealth, fuck everything else |
|
(repeat 2x except last line) |
|
Trying to survive, los angeles times |
|
Verse one: xzibit |
|
Mc's get fucked up, chopped like braveheart |
|
Don't start what you can't finish, serious bidness |
|
Down la seneca to bust a left on venice |
|
Where you can find me and mines -- los angeles times |
|
Welcome to l.a. |
|
Where every other day i'm taking the hat off my head |
|
Givin respect to the dead, and avoid havin the same thing |
|
Said about me, xzibit stand underground |
|
Like the roots of a tree, watered three times a day |
|
Forty ounce olde e, like a magnifying glass |
|
Making it easier to see, the mister x to the z |
|
Don't peak, l.a., why test without vest-es |
|
Stop lead projectile, apocalypse now |
|
Love allah not new car, faggot, superstar |
|
Type of cat, fuck that, mash away in a |
|
Diamond-white concourse 'llac |
|
Still black so the one-time react as if under attack |
|
Ain't nothin changed but district range, feel no pain |
|
Mr. big bad insane black john mcclane with |
|
Liquor on the brain, down to earth like dirt |
|
From the city where niggaz known for puttin in work |
|
Chorus |
|
Verse two: xzibit |
|
Welcome to l.a. |
|
If hand determine dick size, i'm palmin the earth |
|
Select turf, then plant bad seed and give birth |
|
And make the hard work look easy fuh sheezee |
|
Leavin you and your best man, stiffer than mannequins |
|
Enough to break the skin on a vietnam leatherneck |
|
Marine drill sargeant, you nothin but a target (pow!) |
|
Charge it to the game, gotta look beyond the brand name |
|
Comin from the guts like i slammed down twenty cups |
|
Of hennesey straight, relate feel my hate |
|
Xzibit flippin through these bitches like dj trait |
|
Translate to left field, only real niggaz follow |
|
Bitches suck and swallow, i'm livin life behind the bottle |
|
Never the role model, still shinin like a new automobile |
|
Flow six-fo', you can't steal |
|
Cause i got a kill switch with a itch for the action |
|
While other rappers use mass weapons of destruction |
|
To sell they shit |
|
Chorus |
|
Verse three: xzibit |
|
El ve-te-rano, you can only pray to learn what i know |
|
Ride slow across the horizon a lone desperado |
|
Comin through the door bringin nothin but hits |
|
Sometimes i feel like a matador, lookin at this bullshit |
|
Niggaz pull rent from the crack of they ass |
|
Maintain do your thang this too shall pass |
|
I season beef with lead pieces then cook it with gas |
|
I'm from the school of hard knocks way ahead in the class |
|
Xzibit hard to get through, like bulletproof glass |
|
Break it down like johnny cochran then mix it with hash |
|
Your defense can't last against advanced prosecution |
|
Hit the airwaves like pollution -- hey, here's a solution |
|
Take a trip to washington then burn the constitution |
|
Top government officials locked down for prostitution |
|
Recruitin the hard rocks mean streets keep producin |
|
The world is a riot shit is mine for the lootin |
|
Chorus |
|
Everyone's got to make a living (2x) |
|
Chorus |
|
Enjoy your stay, welcome to l.a. |
