[02:47.19]I put my city on the map, nigga
[02:51.35]Yeah, I really put my city on the map
[02:53.87]I mean, when the last time you heard Carson on the track, nigga?
[02:57.41]Let alone when they calling out stomping grounds on the West
[03:02.81]I'll wait
[03:05.37]Yeah, that's what I thought, I'm the best, nigga

[03:13.20]But don't question what pocket I had left, my handkerchief
[03:15.86]I'm guilty by affiliation, in many ways gangsta
[03:18.60]But let me explain something, a paradox if you may
[03:21.01]I threw all on fresh Supreme Chuck Taylors today

[03:53.31]I was the little nigga Pac was talking to
[03:55.93]When he said "keep your head up"
[03:57.41]Cause he knew what I would be facing after his demise
[03:59.86]Jayceon had to pitch them pies, better life than flipping fries
[04:02.39]I'm the one the Crips despise
[04:03.77]Move the Yay or kiss the sky, for having dreams that 50 died
[04:06.53]Eulogy by Mary Blige
[04:07.86]Hopped up in that enterprise, had to stop a genocide
[04:10.46]Went from underdog to watching Top Dawg and Kendrick rise
[04:13.37]Now tell me can I testify, pull over trying to rest for 5
[04:16.08]On a block, no tint on the Wraith left these kids mesmerized
[04:18.88]They ask me how I did it, how I got it
[04:20.67]Say I'm king you looking brolic
[04:21.92]I put them weights down start practicing lyrical exercise

[04:35.63]Ever since I saved my coast, it's been born again
[04:38.80]If I ain't shit then who the king of California then?
