[Intro]
Uh, yeah
I just told myself, uh
Yeah, uh, yeah
[Chorus]
Welcome to LA
The land of opportunity where everybody stay
The girls are pretty, some will shine 360 days
But I don't always feel that way, today I need some gray
Yeah, uh, please protect my soul before they weather it away
The land of opportunity where everybody stay

[Verse 1]
Yeah, and move out to this town where dreams, ambitions, and get lost in the party
Takes a toll on you, man, this shit will charge a large fee
Just don't forget who you are, G
Staring at the man in the mirror, like I recognize him hardly
Brought my sins away and twist some parsley
Stop and chill, these days I do it sparsely
In another universe I coulda' had a stroller and a car seat, but-
And tell me things not happen how they supposed to
But somehow it seems I hurt all the people I get close to
Experience a breakdown some 27 goes through
'Cause you don't want to see heaven, yeah, where Janis Joplin knows you
On phone calls with Mama like she tryin' to give me a earfull
She said "This is the town that happens in so just be careful
Been tryin' to keep your head straight
And dead-off all that bullshit, that's just dead weight"
Yeah
[Chorus]
Welcome to LA
The land of opportunity where everybody stay
The girls are pretty, some will shine 360 days
But I don't always feel that way, today I need some gray
Yeah, uh, please protect my soul before they weather it away
The land of opportunity where everybody stay
[Verse 2]
The whole world's outside knocking at my door like "Gerald, where the fuck that album at?"
But I ain't home, I'm on the road, the stage is where they found me at
So my personal interest, take a backseat to the business
But I balance like a gymnast, like Simone in the Olympics
So please pardon my tardiness, I'm tryin' to put my heart in this
Give this shit my everything, every time when I start with this
Hungry for the world, I swear I starve for this
Yeah, artists come and go these days it's easy, they're not hard to miss
Here today, gone tomorrow, they fade into a dark abyss
Hollywood sunk to a dream, like how the fuck you fall for this?
Have to know yourself or you just really gon' get lost in this, sauce
I really paid the cost to be a boss
I paid in cash and skipped the tax, ain't asked for no receipt
When I get stressed I play the beat and split a Swisher Sweet
Damn, yeah, uh
[Chorus]
Welcome to LA
The land of opportunity where everybody stay
The girls are pretty, some will shine 360 days
But I don't always feel that way, today I need some gray
Yeah, uh, please protect my soul before they weather it away
The land of opportunity, yeah, uh
