Daz & Kurupt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
We cap to ride, cap to homicide
It's instrumental, heat is in the dead of the winter
In the heart of the cold we re-structure your soul
It's that nigga' Daz Kurupt we don't give a fuck
Like nigga' what up ? that nigga Daz and Kurupt
It's fatal fire blaze, Sherm with a perm
Super superb, wiggle like a worm let it burn
Sunny Cali-for-ni-a, the G way display
How to scrape the flow proper like, hit the cylinders
And scrape the flow proper-like, stop at the light
Pull up then drive to the right
It's so good to be back home homie where the feeling is right
[Chorus]
Welcome home, into L.A.
Where the tippy roll around, and the gangsters play
It's been too long, just to seen you come around
Now we can have a good time
Just watch your back, when you're comin' through this town
(L.A., L.A., L-L-L.A., L.A.)
Zone on roam and Romeo's rome
Nigga home sweet home, chromes, battle zones
World wars, boys and girls, girls and whores
Eighty-seven Chevy with switches galore
Impala bounce, at the ice cream parlor blaze an ounce
To ounce, dice game break and it counts
Kick in nigga before we gotta kick in nigga shoot
And whip out the shank and start stickin' niggas
Get jacked for prior burnings, we jack for Higher Learning
No concerning, is life worth living or learning
We jack for other turnings, we keep the burners burning
With no concerning, is life worth living or earning
First I park nigga', then spark nigga'
Go from Martin Luther King to Leimert Park nigga'
We G nigga, we don't give a fuck, Daz and Kurupt
Here, tell your kids-kids, grow the fuck up
[Chorus]
Dippin' and hittin' switches I'mma hop, don't do shit but hop
Pan-cake, let the fo' drop, nigga' hop
Stop, pull out your pistol then pop
Hit em two times til' he drop when I hop
Up and down the street bounce rock
Rag top is history in California, the bounce rock hop
Roller skate nigga' watch a gangster take niggas
Take off, break niggas down, break niggas trample and shake niggas
Over turf, earthquake niggas
Move to the side, we ride, you ever see a G glide
Slide, motivate the crowd, a thirty-eight Mcleod
Forever boom sound with one single round
[Chorus x2]
Welcome home (L.A., L.A., L-L-L.A., L.A.)
Welcome home (L.A., L.A., L-L-L.A., L.A.)
Welcome home (L.A., L.A., L-L-L.A., L.A.)
Welcome home... into L.A.
(L.A., L.A., L-L-L.A., L.A.)
