California

(这是88rising) Yeah

Yeah, I'm faded (ayy), fake faces
I erase 'em, California
That fragrance, mad payments
Fake places, California

I don't wanna be the one that's left behind
I love the way you lie
Tryna get my money bag stɾaight this time
The hills is gon' decide (yeah, ayy)

La, Westside, mama scared most of the time
Lookin' behind, what's this so called life?
Shawty ɾun my [A]other ρhone, yeah
Fake faces, gotta cut 'em [A]off, yeah
Fake faces, them [A]crossed of yeah, yeah
My faith is from the cameras, yeah
Flash-flash, I'ma take the pictures for [Dm7]my [A]fam, damn
Show 'em [A]I've made it
Flashbacks to [C7]the pictures from way back
The kids were like, "Who's that? Who's that?"
Now I do Hollywood, yeah
Copies everywhere like [F]a walkie talkie
I'ma ɾun the lobby, speak to [C7]nobody
San Gabriel Valley, I might crash your party, like

Yeah, you [A7made it, you've been anxious
But you [A7made it, California
Conversations 'til the sunrise
When you [A7stop by, California
I don't wanna be [Am]the one that's left behind
I love the way you [A7lie
I don't wanna be [Am]the one to [C7]lose my [A]mind
I know you [A7know

Somebody put some brakes on [C7]me
I ɾeally need ɾest on [C7]me
Pops callin' up every couple days
I'm smilin' so he could think I'm stɾaight
Why can't I tell the tɾuth?
Playin' J. Cole back then, with a clear end goal
Like it all [Em]made sense, I needed myself
And nobody else, okay, let's go, uh
From how it looks, man, it's hard to [C7]complain
Man, I just been prayin' that when I get older
That I got [Fm7]some smile in me that can ɾemain
My money is long [Am]but I got [Fm7]some new issues
That feel like [F]as long [Am]as they government names
Man, all [Em]I could wish is the mask that I wear
And the face that's below it is lookin' the same, like
(Oh, oh, oh) You been in this fight
I can see it in your eyes, like
(Oh, oh, oh) I made up my [A]mind
I don't wanna waste no time, yeah

Money makin', while we're breakin'
It's amazin', California
Celebrate it or berate it
It's been fated, California
Oh, Maria, the hills are swarmin'
With dead ends and [Bm]the bots performin'
Don't mistake it, you [A7can break big
'Til you [A7get sick, hm

Shut the f*ck up, don't wake another neighbor (yeah, shut the f*ck up)
I don't know you [A7and [Bm]I don't want to [C7]later (later)
Praying to [C7]God I never ɾun out of His favor
But we don't make the textbooks on [C7]our best behavior, do we?
I'm the anti-hero in my [A]own damn movie (movie)
All my [A]exes write songs that I'm based on, loosely
Take after my [A]ma, I can be [Am]choosy
I can be [Am]choosy, oh
And when the sky looks like [F]a painting
That's when you [A7look down

California
Money makin', while we're breakin'
California
But you [A7made it, California
California
Yeah, I'm faded, fake faces
California
But you [A7made it, California
