What do you feel when you hear a record like Tupac's new one? [static]<br />
[Man responds] I love Tupac's new record [static]<br />
[Dominique]<br />
Right, but don't you feel like that creates [static]<br />
a tension between East and West? [static]<br />
He's talking about killing people [static]<br />
I had sex with your wife and not in those words [static]<br />
but he's talking about I wanna see you deceased [static]<br />
<br />
[Intro: Makaveli]<br />
<br />
No doubt... to live and die in LA<br />
California -- what you say about Los Angeles<br />
Still the only place for me that never rains in the sun<br />
and everybody got love<br />
<br />
[Verse One: Makaveli]<br />
<br />
To live and die in LA, where everyday we try to fatten our pockets<br />
Us niggaz hustle for the cash so it's hard to knock it<br />
Everybody got they own thang, currency chasing<br />
Worldwide through the hard times, warrior faces<br />
Shed tears as we bury niggaz close to heart<br />
What was a friend now a ghost in the dark, cold hearted bout it<br />
Nigga got smoked by a fiend, trying to floss on him<br />
Blind to a broken man's dream, a hard lesson<br />
Court cases keep me guessing, plea bargain<br />
ain't an option now, so I'm stressing, cost me more<br />
to be free than a life in the pen<br />
Making money off of cuss words, writing again<br />
Learn how to think ahead, so I fight with my pen<br />
Late night down Sunset liking the scene<br />
What's the worst they could do to a nigga got me lost in hell<br />
To live and die in LA on bail, my angel sing<br />
<br />
[Chorus: Val Young]<br />
<br />
To live and die in LA, it's the place to be<br />
You've got to be there to know it, what everybody wanna see<br />
[repeat 2X]<br />
<br />
[Verse Two: Makaveli]<br />
<br />
It's the, City of Angels and constant danger<br />
South Central LA, can't get no stranger<br />
Full of drama like a soap opera, on the curb<br />
Watching the ghetto bird helicopters, I observe<br />
So many niggaz getting three strikes, tossed in jail<br />
I swear the pen the right across from hell, I can't cry<br />
Cause it's on now, I'm just a nigga on his own now<br />
Living life Thug style, so I can't smile<br />
Writing to my peoples when they ask for pictures<br />
Thinking Cali just fun and bitches, hahaha<br />
Better learn about the dress code, B's and C's<br />
All them other niggaz copycats, these is G's<br />
I love Cali like I love woman<br />
Cause every nigga in LA got a little bit of Thug in him<br />
We might fight among each other, but I promise you this<br />
We'll burn this bitch down, get us pissed<br />
To live and die in LA<br />
(Let my angel sing)<br />
<br />
[Chorus]<br />
<br />
[Verse Three: Makaveli]<br />
<br />
Cause would it be LA without Mexicans?<br />
Black love brown pride and the sets again<br />
Pete Wilson trying to see us all broke, I'm on some bullshit<br />
Out for everything they owe, remember K-DAY<br />
Weekends, Crenshaw -- MLK<br />
Automatics rang free, niggaz lost they way<br />
Gang signs being showed, nigga love your hood<br />
But recognize and it's all good, where the weed at?<br />
Niggaz getting shermed out<br />
Snoop Dogg in this muhfucka perved out, M.O.B.<br />
Big Suge in the Low-Low, bounce and turn<br />
Dogg Pound in the Lex, wit a ounce to burn<br />
Got them Watts niggaz with me, OFTB<br />
They got some hash took the stash left the rest for me<br />
Neckbone, Tre, Head Ron, Punchy too<br />
Big Rock got knocked, but this one's for you<br />
I hit the studio and drop a jewel, hoping it pay<br />
Getting high watching time fly, to live and die in LA<br />
(Let my angel sing)<br />
<br />
[Chorus]<br />
<br />
[Outro: Makaveli]<br />
<br />
This go out for 92.3, and 106<br />
All the radio stations that be bumping my shit<br />
Making my shit sells katruple quitraple platinum, hehe<br />
This go out to all the magazines that supported me<br />
All the real motherfuckers<br />
All the stores, the mom and pop spots<br />
A&R people, all y'all motherfuckers<br />
LA, California Love part motherfucking Two<br />
Without gay ass Dre
