KimJazz - Orange County (Peace 2 Ta-Nehisi) lyrics

[Intro] Ay yo, throw me on the 8-track Yeah I got an 8 track mind Rhyme, beats and rhyme Girls, girls, girls Hip-hop and time But how do I sh** How do I Focus? [Verse 1] Fixate on the future Thinking 'bout a family Picturing the Huxtables But the comparison To the Cosby Impressing upon me Sunny settings of suburbia might not be So godly Oddly I'm still in the posse of NWA At the Compton swap meet Knowing California is the place is the place that got me In a dream like state Fly away and drop me [Hook] Go out to the county Mr. OC Living the high life Until I OD Work twice as hard I'm winning in OT Until my time's up That's word to OC Yeah I'm Mr. OC Living the high life Until I OD Work twice as hard I'm winning in OT Until my time's up That's word to OC Yeah Peace to Ta-Nehisi Looking for that Dream [Verse 2] Between the world and me It ain't easy Leaving voicemails I fail to sound breezy Pleading for perfect houses Nice lawns Word bond I'm making a 360 Maybe foregone Conclusion Since teenage days amusing For white kids sneering at LTtheLoser Pro-black labeled a race-hating abuser Until I got out of the burbs Found a looser Broad mind state of people One staple of peaceful Good times is taking back the needle To the first notes of James Brown the lethal Say it loud Black and I'm proud While the streets full Gunned down brothers The thought to keep to Is that there's a dream This rap sh** can lead to Cub scouts, cookouts A place where evil Can't put a bullet in my head and sequels In my chest and abdomen Bones cracking Signs saying I matter When the camera capturing I'll act pa**ive So the Dream will have me But hey, I'm still black So maybe it's never happening [Hook] Go out to the county Mr. OC Living the high life Until I OD Work twice as hard I'm winning in OT Until my time's up That's word to OC Yeah I'm Mr. OC Living the high life Until I OD Work twice as hard I'm winning in OT Until my time's up That's word to OC Yeah I'm Mr. OC Living the high life Until I OD Work twice as hard I'm winning in OT Until my time's up That's word to OC Yeah It's for the OC For the OC [Outro] This the high life On the beach The needle's in my arm Make sure I don't OD
