(yeah) (West Coast connection)
They love to talk about the business in the dark Signing contracts
in the VIP behind the park But the ink dries different when
the cash gets thin And everybody wants to play the game to
win (uh-huh) Now they lookin' at me with that industry side-eye But
they never see the hustle from the high rise
Everybody wants a verse till the lights come on
Everybody claims they ride till the money is gone
(that's right) But we keep the swing heavy on the boulevard
While they playin' roles trying to act hard
I keep my circle small,
my vision on the prize No room for compromises,
no room for lies They want the verse but they don't want
the grind
Left 'em all behind on the Pacific line
(boulevard bounce)
Now the bass is bumping and the drums are tight We keeping
it moving through the California night
Everybody wants a verse till the lights come on
Everybody claims they ride till the money is gone
(yeah) But we keep the swing heavy on the boulevard
While they playin' roles trying to act hard
Yeah, when the lights come on...
(where they at?) (nowhere)
