See any angels in the city

City city city city city city city city city city

See any angels in the city

City city city city city city city city city city

Tell them motha****** I'm forever paid

California king

Wrestle gators in that Everglade

Drive up out that motha******* swamp in the Escalade

So before you put that red rag in your pocket

I wanna see your ******* résumé

Started off on Ground Zero

Then I start to levitate

Rip rappers a new ********

I never hesitate

Dre Beats on smokin' that chronic just to meditate

I'ma give 'em hurricanes until another levee break

You ****** is featherweight

I'm Aftermath's heavyweight

Now Dre's weapon of mass destruction is 'bout to detonate

When a ***** Wack found me ****

I was sellin' weight

Now a ****** sellin' millions

Now it's time to celebrate

Performin' in front of millions

***** every race

6-4 in the '64

Now watch the Chevy scrape

Fourth album no five mics

Then let 'em hate

But I'm not stoppin' till

I'm the ******* king in every state

See any angels in the city

Recognize my life ridicule my fight

Give me fuel for the fire burnin'

When I yearn these lights

In the midst of the hieroglyphs

My fingertips start to write

Get familiar with Cartwright

'Cause I want that shot

I'm a raging bull when the needle drops

For the record I'ma wreck it

Even if my record don't pop

I'ma tie a knot on a downtown buildin'

Let it tow behind me

Tell 'em they can find me

In the dark with the ghetto children

Look at my heart *****

**** your feelings this is me

I'm sick of motha****** talkin' about the West died

Can't you hear my heart beatin'

That's the mother******* Westside

You test me you test God

I'm his son

It say in Psalms you come at me

Then I can split you with this Tommy gun

You won't have no time to run

I'm from the Compton slums

And that's how the West ride

I'm from the city where two of the best died

Rest in peace to both of 'em

Spit like I'm the ghost of 'em

**** I said I spit like

I'm the ghost of 'em

Name your top 10

I'm harder than the most of 'em

Matter of fact

Shorten your list ***** top 5

Game Biggie

Hov probably Pac Nas

No particular order

Bet a mill' that I slaughter

And serve ******

Give a **** what you ordered

How dare you ****** pop fly

When I'm the ***** sold 5 mill' out

The gate and numbers do not lie

See any angels in the city

Recognize my life ridicule my fight

Give me fuel for the fire burnin'

When I yearn these lights

In the midst of the hieroglyphs

My fingertips start to write

Get familiar with Cartwright

'Cause I want that shot

I'm a raging bull when the needle drops

For the record I'ma wreck it

Even if my record don't pop

I'ma tie a knot on a downtown buildin'

Let it tow behind me

Tell 'em they can find me

In the dark with the ghetto children

Look at my heart *****

**** your feelings this is me

I gave you the Documentary

**** was a classic

Gave you Doctor's Advocate

You ripped it out the package

Came with LAX since critics said it was average

I was stressed the **** out

Torn between Aftermath and

Geffen Interscope

Now I got you in the scope

Spill the red ink on the paper

It's like my pen is broke

And this is what you all been waitin' for

I'm the lost angel knockin' on Satan's door

What the **** y'all take me for

I love you 'cause you hate me more

I'm Kobe on the Lakers floor

Except I give you 84

Shake you like Haiti's floor

Walk up on you like

What's goin' on baby boy

Shots in that Mercedes door

Either I'm crazy or the black Slim Shady or

Could that be the reason that

Baby said he would pay me more

But I still owe Jimmy one more album

The best the West has ever seen

No disrespect to Calvin

See any angels in the city

Recognize my life ridicule my fight

Give me fuel for the fire burnin'

When I yearn these lights

In the midst of the hieroglyphs

My fingertips start to write

Get familiar with Cartwright

'Cause I want that shot

I'm a raging bull when the needle drops

For the record I'ma wreck it

Even if my record don't pop

I'ma tie a knot on a downtown buildin'

Let it tow behind me tell 'em they can find me

In the dark with the ghetto children

Look at my heart *****

**** your feelings this is me

Kendrick and I wear pendant on my shoulder

Soldier like a lieutenant

And the coupe tinted got pulled over

Johnny always lock a ***** down knowin' **** well

We don't wanna see the box like Manny Pacquiao

Little ***** Mayweather size

Ride like Pac in his prime

Thug Life is now on radar

'Til the federal come through and raid ours

Reminiscin' when the LA Raiders

Was in my home snapback fitted on my uncle's dome

And I don't condone ****ridin'

I'm addicted to Westsidin'

Livin' in a city where the skinny ****** die

And the semi bullets fly but it turned me to a lion

Tryin' tryin' tryin' tryin' tryin'

And I mean that ****

Game came through put the city on his back

I was in the city where a ***** hadn't seen that ****

Compton a ***** gotta scream that ****

Never went commercial never TV-screened that ****

Can't block or screen that ****

Now everybody sing that ****

Red is a very emotionally and intense color

It enhances human metabolism

Increases respiration rate

And raises blood pressure

It has a very high visibility

Which is why stop signs stop lights

And fire equipments are usually painted red

It also represents one third of California's gang population

Needless to say please dress accordingly

While visiting the Los Angeles area

Also tuck your jewellry

And keep your hands inside your vehicle

Thank you enjoy
