California ain't a state,
that'll burn down the village
with a chronic blunt full of that.
You know who gon' take you back to Compton in that 6 -4 -2,
kickin' that lethal injection.
A hood nigga lost with no direction.
So he bought a blacksmith
At the intersection waiting on arrival
Cause in the city of angels,
they wanna see you be your way
tell me what they buzzing about
Your little homie got smoked on the corner
And now his mama crying dead
Motherfuckers ain't gon' learn,
till the chronic blood don't burn
And you can't see nothin' but the ghetto burn light
shinin' through the fuckin' palm trees
California ain't a state, it's a army
Motherfuckers ain't gon' learn,
till the chronic blood don't burn
And you can't see nothin' but the ghetto burn light
shinin' through the fuckin' palm trees
California ain't a state, it's a army
took a trip to the swap meet
The school bop, ego trippin'
cause some niggas in my old
Time to put the ass in check,
Shoulda hit my nigga Mac -10 on the church
All I need is me and my bitch, you scared?
Cause them California niggas
And life ain't nothin' but
Dippin' through the jungles,
Fuck, here come the gorillas in the midst
And they dressed like Ice Cube was in 96
Stone Cold Jerry Girls and not one drip
And I ride with my niggas,
If it don't make dollars,
cause I couldn't hit a fence
Motherfuckers ain't gon' learn
Till the chronic blunt don't burn
And you can't see nothin'
but the Ghetto Bird light
Shinin' through the fuckin'
California ain't a state, it's an arm
Motherfuckers ain't gon' learn
Till the chronic blunt don't burn
And you can't see nothin'
but the Ghetto Bird light
Shinin' through the fuckin'
California ain't a state, it's
Call the U .S. government
Niggas tried to straight up jack me,
Third lil' nigga got away
Caught him round the corner,
put the beam on his forehead
then smashed through the light
Without a one time in sight,
On Sentry, headed to the LAX
We ain't nothin' but fly bitches and jets
In and out of lanes and I almost wrecked
Off -brand nigga in a 600,
throwin' up a set, he must don't know
in a tech, tryna be shy but
It's the third time this shit
Guess it's time to add another dead body
So I turned down my Spice 1 tape
Emptied the whole clip in his
Motherfuckers ain't gon' learn
Till the chronic blood don't burn
And you can't see nothin'
But the ghetto burn lightin' shine
through the fuckin' palm tree
California ain't a state, it's a army
Motherfuckers ain't gon' learn
Till the chronic blood don't burn
And you can't see nothin'
but the ghetto burn lights
shinin' through the fuckin'
California ain't a state,
California ain't a state, it's a army
