002staycool

In Cali, where I'm from, even the ghetto is beautiful
the sun shines most of the time, and you can grow
oranges, grapes, dates, onions, and avocados
in your yard, chillin on your front porch reading a novel
two hours of driving I'm-in mountains like Colorado
or sampling vintages in Napa, popping bottles
choppin it up with chicks who oughta be models
brainiacs cuz all my knowledge is an awful lot to swallow
I stay in Sac, where it's known for trees, chrome and weed
it's not perfect but for what it's worth it's home for me
sometimes I used to zone out and roam the P
alone, just me, taking mental notes of the folks I'd see
and no, dope fiends, hoes, OGs, nosebleeds, broken homes and dreams
weren't the only things that I was shown so please,
save the pity, just party, out west we stay relaxed
it ain't the hash, creative raps are what make bangin tracks!

And it's cool
even when it's a hundred outside, roll down the window and ride
And it's cool
even when it's June or July and you're sweating, you're fine,
And it's cool
D-Boys on the block who know the spot's hot, but don't stop
like it's cool
and even if it ain't, why hate it though? Just try to make it so

(breakdown)

It don't make sense to stay tense
in one of the world's most beautiful vacation destinations
where the skies are blue and the grass is green
or purple, hairy orange, or frosted white, grasp my mean-
ing? It's early, light up the coals, birds are singing
the vegetables are steaming, where's Poor, I heard he's bringing
about 24 cold ones... but with more than eight of us
rolling cones Js and blunts, I'm pretty sure that ain't enough
we got Tyler on the barbecue with Mo
me and NON dropping dominoes on Bru and Dro
acting a fool making stupid jokes 'cause dude's moving slow
to mark my score, as Mutt arrives with Mark from the store
with Ghost holding another case of beer, I'm saying 'bring it here'
as my lady pours a clear glass of water and leaves a smear
of lipstick as she breathes on my ear to kiss it
I slap her ass, I'll be back after we disappear a minute

And it's cool
even when it's a hundred outside, roll down the window and ride
And it's cool
even when it's June or July and you're sweating, you're fine,
And it's cool
DJs with the cuts and chops who just drop HIP HOP
'cause it's cool
and even if it ain't, why hate it though? Just try to make it so
