Intro: One hand in the air one time for us
Two hands in the air one time for us
Raise your glass in the air one time for us, one time x2

I'm the rap phenomenon, changing the thermometer
An unspoken problem mixed with rap artists anonymous
Where white boys spit, outside projects lit
By red blue tint, pigs don't want us to sit here
Like we don't fit here, "but sir I've been here"
The media ain't here, attention just ain't near
And I've been slept on, my talent is bent on
Reaping these benefits, California attention please

Chorus: California What's up? LA what's up?
Downtown what's up? Eastside what's up?
South Central what's up? Pasadena what's up?
Compton what's up? Inglewood what's up?
Longbeach what's up? Highland Park what's up?
Lincoln Heights what's up? To all my Watts what's up?

Im a white boy and my neck is red, I grew up in the ghetto, right outside of the "jects"
Can't even claim I'm from the hood, all the evidence dead
Tore down the hood and built a 24 hour fitness
Built a subway and a market and a panda express
West Altadena wants to make a little bit of interest
Red flag hanging out, my bro's claiming the set
To keep his siblings safe and get a little respect
My Pops is religious and my mom is gay
All my brothers gang bang and now I'm insane
The pain inside, my brain resides in obscenity
I'm reaping these benefits, California attention please

Chorus

When they don't need you, they leave you
Goes to show who your real friends are when people stop believing you
I lost my goon to my studio, my team to my dreams
Scavengers scheme for material things
They took what I created, my word is now debated
I'm a lier and a fake bitch, my elephants been gated
My room's evacuated, the opposition is stated
Submission, it can't be placed, it just will not be demonstrated
My dreams, they could never take it, my pulp was ripe, so I ate it
I lost my time, and they hate it, I'm sorry, fuck man, I hate this
But my tombs been excavated, I'm a legend in the making
And I'm reaping these benefits California attention please

Chorus
