Locals Only

Yeah

The very first time I heard run in them Adidas

I never would have thought one day I'd have a fever

They used to say, nah, Dom, he is not no keeper

And yeah them songs cool but nah, he ain't got no heaters

Then I went home, we ain't got one either

The gas shut off, man, I just go to sleep but

These **** think they good but I really know they suck

And **** think they hood but I really know they punks

The man with the most isn't always in the front

So hit that west side and we'll get you what you want

A nice black eye that'll go with all them lumps

And I try to stay quiet if it ain't involving us

She asked me where I came from

I told her where you headed, back to LA?

I said, baby, what you repping?

I got these ideas and I'm tryna make some records

So when the train stops this time I'ma catch it

When the train stops this time I'ma catch it

When the train stops this time I'ma catch it

When the train stops this time I'ma catch it

So when the train stops

The very first time I heard Black Superman

I knew it was okay to just act like who I am

I used to rob stores for a tape I could afford

I want to thank the Lord for the life of 2Pac Shakur

I know living's hard but you gotta see the light

You never gon' make it if you never rolled a dice

Take the first step, that was Dr. King advice

Going no days off, I'm gon' practice every night

I got so many thoughts and I got so much to write

And that right there is the story of my life

Can't sit and complain, nah, I'm tryna get a name

Help feed the kids and I'm trying to get a chain

My homeboy, Ian, was the first one with a Range

We used to play my old shit, now I got more shit

Just a little something I can get out on the road with

Or maybe just walk to the store with

She asked me where I came from

I told her where you headed, back to LA?

I said, baby, what you repping?

I got these ideas and I'm tryna make some records

So when the train stops this time I'ma catch it

When the train stops this time I'ma catch it

When the train stops this time I'ma catch it

When the train stops this time I'ma catch it

So when the train stops

I remember no cameras, no calls, no answers

No meetings, no features, no chances

No shows, no fans, no dancing

Now there's three hundred girls yelling, go, handsome

I'm warming up California, this is your candle

And I ain't never had a video or no channel

I saw your name on a sign that said show cancelled

The charm of a college kid with them pro handles

This for **** stressed out and gotta smoke Camels

And them ladies and them pretty open-toed sandals

I remember them Impalas with the gold panels

We still keep it west side like an old flannel

Mix a little Liemert Park wth a cold piano

And tell me if you heard something realer

I told Arch we was gonna kill 'em

New everything got me looking like a dealer

If there's something wrong then I'm looking in the mirror

Life is a bitch but I could never fear her

'Cause she be looking good every second that I'm near her

She told me take my time but I really couldn't hear her

Now in it for the ring, girl, I want to be respected

That's why it took me like four years to perfect it

She said you got the type of heart I like to connect with

So when the train stops this time I'ma catch it, gone
