[Hook: Prohgress]
I got a mic in my hand with something to say
Everyday represent Californ-I-A
Sit back take a trip down memory lane
Everyday represent Californ-I-A
[Verse 1: Prohgress & J-Splif]
We was young then
Back when we couldn't get a pack of cigarettes
Back when we couldn't say that a brother changes
Back when every day was another day
Breaking rules, skipping school when we getting high
Chilling back in the caravan spitting rhymes
On the block 5-0 try to chase me
We bone out freestyle onto the main speed
We are the one now we having fun
Each pound on the ten and we practicing
To the double 1-0 we ain't seen no
With some mean hoes blowing halloween smoke
At the hotel room where we popping beers
Like another 1-2 'cause our homie's here
And our cousin Kev Nish from the C-Town
Last piece of the puzzle we complete now
[Hook: Prohgress]
I got a mic in my hand with something to say
Everyday represent Californ-I-A
Sit back take a trip down memory lane
Everyday represent Californ-I-A
[Verse 2: Kev Nish]
I'm from the town where the stars don't shine
Smog in the air be impaired in your eyes
Hope stays afloat that the rivers stay dry
It's the FM crew kicking L.A. rhymes right
The mind state ain't the same out here
We got them hoes with the holla top
Bucket with a drop top
Friends that know friends that say they know 2Pac
Cousins of that friend got a video of Snoop Dogg
Chicken and waffles, baking red corn dogs
Cruising sunset, now we rolling down [?]
Seat back, feel that, we know where we at
California love on the subs, no feedback
Friday night favors, "Mr. Chuck, we need crack"
Wake up, wake up, revolution bring the beat check
L.A. to the yay, C-town to the day gone
Throwing back the Cali in the place
[Hook: Prohgress]
I got a mic in my hand with something to say
Everyday represent Californ-I-A
Sit back take a trip down memory lane
Everyday represent Californ-I-A
[Verse 3: All]
Don't forget how this love started
We was in it all the way, never half hearted
Breaking rules, skipping school, but we getting wise
Dollar signs ain't the reason that we getting signed
But the dollar signs keep alive family ties
I got a back pain digging [?] you and I
On the grind see the stars bright lights
Ain't nothing changed
Move east around the world till we're back in L.A
Backstage elevate, rolling a J
Zone out, concentrate, stretching my legs
Freestyle, meditate, uh, nothing to say
As the lights go off play the beat DJ
Now raise your hands from side to side
Far East Movement in the house tonight
Kick old school rhymes for you to feel
Put your hands in the air if you keeps it real
Now raise your hands from side to side
Far East Movement in the house tonight
Kick old school rhymes for you to feel
Put your hands in the air if you keeps it real
[Hook: Prohgress]
I got a mic in my hand with something to say
Everyday represent Californ-I-A
Sit back take a trip down memory lane
Everyday represent Californ-I-A
