Just smokin' weed for hours
Drinking Hennessy for hours
[Verse 1: Dr. Dre]
That's when I started flipping sh**, mixing at the EVE
In '83 World Cla** beats for free
I hooked up with this fool slinging cookies and sh**, just rookies and sh**
Stomping out the CPT
It was five n***as showin' muthaf**as the streets
Picked up this cat from Dallas then we went back east
sh** was wild when we broke them muthaf**as a piece
They said 'as long as you don't sing that sh** about the police'
Now back on the coast, I don't bother no one
I keep strictly with the business 'til that sh** gets done
Makin' money muthaf**a, supposed to be havin' fun
But my faculty got f**ed cause we f**ed off one
They got me drunker than a skunk gettin' paid and sh**
Never really considered what was made and sh**
Like a Renegade and sh**, thanks to sh**
n***as couldn't fade muthaf**in gansta sh**
Ice Cube was performin', yeah he ain't no joke
Him and a bunch of Brooklyn n***as servin' nothin' but dope
And we all stayed down, we all kept winnin'
Studios and hoes was just the beginnin'
[Hook]
In sunshine
(Yeah, I'm just tryin' to live)
My life, my life, my life, in the sunshine
(Yeah, I gotta live)
My life, my life, my life
[Verse 2: Dr. Dre]
They said them n***as was real look how they ballin' and sh**
When the business get up in it, it's all new sh**
Make sure it's straight cause you gon' hate when yo' sh** fake
Be like I can't f** with that, back to servin' them cakes
I went to the liquor store so I could get me a drank
Then I ounce and just bounce get some p**y and thank
I see my n***a D.O.C. him and the security ballin'
In one of his foe's that muthaf**a was crawlin'
He holla'd and sh** but I can't hear that n***a jawin'
So I said hold up n***a, got my sh**, we all in, he said
[The D.O.C.]
These papers f**ed up my n***a you can check it out
If yo' sh** f**ed too let's put our own f**in' records out
I got his information and went on my way
Went home and realized, sh** I'm givin' paper away
Then there's a knock at the door, my brother Warren G
With some n***as out of Long Beach called 213
We started workin' on Deep Cover, said f** it, we made it
They played it and they played it, got faded and replayed it
They said it's the sh**, G funk sh** be knockin'
The Row was bouta' drop and it was on and poppin'

In sunshine
(Yeah, I'm just tryin' to live)
My life, my life, my life, in the sunshine

My life, my life, my life
Just smoking' weed for hours
