Ozomatli – City Of Angels lyrics

Let me tell you a little something about L. A., I love it

City of Angels
City of Angel, ooh
City of Angels
City of Angels

Now, what you know about my city that's tic tac?
Hustle to get stacks, fail get laughed at
Even from here I hear the chit chat
Grew up Miracle Mile, Fairfax to tar traps

Hamilton High alumni, what you know
Ham and cheese supreme jb to Carthay cat
L. A. It be the base and the catalyst
Walk Crescent Heights worldwide back to strangle us

Land of the saint and the land of the wicked
Hollywood to Bell, the Manichean kick it
What a duality, arid reality
Devon Brown Shot, minor technicality

Brad Pits cheatin' front page reality
Stanley Miller Beatin', da don't want to touch it
But I love my city, soft yet rugged
Rep L. A. I know the Angels will love it, come on

City of Angels
City of Angel, ooh
City of Angels
City of Angels

Hey yo' y'all, I let the beat talk, then I just fill in the words
It's Jabulani that you're dealing with
My hood is tough like its Clubber Lang
So in the bucket I bump behind mac in the gutter lane

I write raps when I feel the pain or even sorrow
But you heard it before the sun will come out tomorrow
Or so they say but see we're living in L. A.
And what you thought was the sun, was just a flash from the k

You stashing your weed in the passenger seat
Of the Regal with the gold feet
Watch your back, lil' homie got a loaded mac on Figueroa
Just got a new girl, his rep he's finna show her

Slow down baby gangsta, you ain't prepared for the truth
You got him and it's gonna happen to you
Ain't gotta live how your homie do
Just work the angles, the city I'm from is Los Angels, come on

City of Angels
City of Angel, ooh
City of Angels
City of Angels

City of Angels
City of Angel, ooh
City of Angels
City of Angels

Hey hey yeah, city yeah
In the city of Angels

City of Angels
City of Angel, ooh
City of Angels
City of Angels

City of Angels
City of Angel, ooh
City of Angels
City of Angels

City of Angels
City of Angel, ooh
City of Angels

I love it
