[00:02.03]In my city,
[00:03.08]My city of sin,
[00:05.29]That's where it all started,
[00:07.46]That's where it all ends,
[00:10.27]In my city,
[00:11.71]My city of sin,
[00:13.68]In my city,
[00:15.77]In my city,
[00:17.93]In my city of sin,
[00:20.35]That's where it all ends,
[00:22.81]Just a young punk with a 100 bucks in my pocket,
[00:25.23]Had plans to come to LB and rocket,
[00:27.51]Our jobs pay minimum wage,
[00:29.47]thinking to myself theres got to be a better way,
[00:31.49]Grab my pen and pad and begin to write,
[00:33.46]Hone my skills and try to make em tight,
[00:35.65]Strap myself in for the bumpy flight,
[00:37.58]But my flame of fame yo it wouldn't ignite,
[00:39.75]They just didn't take me serious
[00:41.51]because I was to damn white,
[00:43.01]So I switched it up and joined a rock band,
[00:45.16]Same Big B just had a few more fans,
[00:47.03]It's true things never work out
[00:49.53]the way you want them to,
[00:50.72]Cu'z in a few years that band was through,
[00:52.83]In my city,
[00:55.02]My city of sin,
[00:57.15]That's where it all started,
[00:59.29]That's where it all ends,
[01:01.19]In my city,
[01:02.60]My city of sin,
[01:05.53]In my city,
[01:07.61]In my city,
[01:09.74]In my city of sin,
[01:12.40]That's where it all ends,
[01:14.83]Yea about my head,
[01:16.09]It broke my pride,
[01:17.08]I keep smiling but I hurt inside,
[01:19.33]I had to go back to a 9 to 5,
[01:21.52]Had to hustle late night just to get by,
[01:23.91]Drunk by day criminal by night,
[01:26.70]The end of my problems just wasn't in sight,
[01:28.94]Me and my girl had a second
[01:31.14]kid one the way but i was one step away
[01:33.40]from not having any place to stay,
[01:34.36]So i took the risk and did it big,
[01:35.73]Told god if this worked it would be my last gig,
[01:37.67]Next morning on the couch counting
[01:40.56]my cash thinking my freedom could have
[01:42.86]went so fast,
[01:43.61]I took a gasp and new i needed to
[01:44.80]get my shit together
[01:48.72]In my city,
[01:51.21]My city of sin,
[01:53.33]That's where it all started,
[01:55.54]That's where it all ends,
[01:57.39]In my city,
[01:59.82]My city of sin,
[02:01.82]In my city,
[02:03.91]In my city,
[02:06.06]In my city of sin,
[02:08.50]That's where it all ends,
[02:10.74]As luck would have it or maybe its fate,
[02:12.68]To get another chance i wouldn't
[02:15.01]have long to wait,
[02:16.88]Got a call from a friend,
[02:17.87]Next thing you know I;m doing songs
[02:18.88]in the studio with OPM,
[02:20.22]Yea we did a few albums
[02:21.69]and i put a few bucks in my hand,
[02:24.00]And even though it didn't work out
[02:26.61]the way i thought it would,
[02:29.12]I got no regrets its all good,
[02:29.83]For the first time in my life
[02:30.44]I understand what it is to be a man,
[02:32.71]If you want something you can chase it,
[02:34.58]its your life you can live it or waste it,
[02:36.55]I might not have got a full plate,
[02:38.27]but at least i got to taste it,
[02:40.98]Not to many people will get the chance
[02:43.11]to do what i've done or see what i've seen,
[02:45.21]I got to see the other side,
[02:46.90]and i got to live my dream,

[02:51.71]and the Kottonmouth Kings
[02:53.14]for taking my under there wings, thank you,
