Lyrics

Uh, West Coast
The best, oh
Pacific Heights, we take flight to live it like never before
The sun sets to settle the score from whence it came
But no longer the same, see
We reflect the cause and effect of change
Pacific Heights
Highlights of living in the West is some
Of the sights that leave you breathless
My life reflects this every day I wake up for breakfast
The feeling I'm feeling is the nexus
Blue skies and big shit on the horizon
Game recognize game, advise to lames
Economy thriving, cheddar to make
Better the stakes is high but not higher than I've been
Up in Northern Cali, the Humboldt County experience is bomb
And you'll know what to do when 420 hits
The water is freezing but the tide brings the cool ocean breeze
When it's hot outside, we got mountainous terrain
Valleys and hot springs, a beauty that's boundless
Cali contains the City of Angels, it's big and bold
L.A. is the real deal but all that glitters is not gold
And yo, we got some real hard hitters up in Frisco
We got some real hard hitters in the East, oh
We got some real hard hitters in Vallejo
We got some real hard hitters in the Bay, yo
Street veterans and defiant giants
Cowboys of us kicking up dust and riots
Plus when we get busy we be ready to bust the revolution
And get it on like Huey P. Newton
South Central and Watts rebellions
Speaking of off the hook, we wrote the book
You can tell when you party with us
You don't wanna start it with us
You might get touched with an adrenaline rush
Pacific Heights, we take flight to live it like never before
The sun sets to settle the score from whence it came
But no longer the same, see
We reflect the cause and effect of change
And now we travel down Highway 101, the scenic route
Perceiving the beautiful things that you might dream about
When you think of California, the landscape will perform for ya
Visions will take shape, I'm warning ya
Living here's addictive and it shakes
7.7 On the Richter, earthquakes
And for heaven's sakes it takes a pioneering spirit to face the West
Finesse, pride and grace, wouldn't hurt a bit
Show me something immortal, we'll murder it
Show me something dead, we'll bring it to life and further it
On its path and you don't even know the half
We innovative natives and the way that we lives fast life
That's right, sunset tripping and get caught slipping at night
You might fall victim to one of these wannabe G's
That run the streets defined by living with their third eyes blind
Why California penal facilities exist
To get bigger and bigger so the crime persists
And it don't stop or cease, it only increase
Fuck the cops, this hip-hop shit controls the streets
Of the Golden State, I'm a proud resident
And when I'm old and gray, I'ma still represent
This coastline and toast the Napa Valley wine
It's some of the finest and gets better with time
In Pacific Heights, we take flight to live it like never before
The sun sets to settle the score from whence it came
But no longer the same, see
We reflect the cause and effect of change
Beautiful women and unlimited fun
From Mexico all the way to Oregon
And it don't stop until we see B.C.
Canada bud is plentiful but it ain't easy
To get across the border and it'll cost you more than a little
If you've ever been caught doing any criminal activity in the States
Seattle got ganja too so if you can't pay then stay
And kick it up in Washington where
The mushrooms grow in the morning dew
And I'm watching from a bird's eye view
Up in the Sky Needle having dinner with a winner
Feeling fly like freedom
Enhanced by the psilocybin in my system
Advanced by what I know I hear when I listen
Enchanted wisdom of the land
And the West Coast is host to the everlasting plan
Pacific Heights, we take flight to live it like never before
The sun sets to settle the score from whence it came
But no longer the same, see
We reflect the cause and effect of change
Pacific Heights, we take flight to live it like never before
The sun sets to settle the score from whence it came
But no longer the same, see
We reflect the cause and effect of change
West Coast
The anointed ones
Strike again, Hieroglyphics
Uh, yes
The pioneers roll Westwood
