Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, Cali? No doubt
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
[Verse 2]
West, west, y'all, pile it on your plate
A little somethin', somethin' from the Golden State
Nah, we ain't like Kobe and Shaq
It's Magic and Kareem, ****, showtime is back
True legends, two-steppin' on you peasants
What y'all thought? Y'all gon' need 'bout two vests
'Cause when he plug, I plug
Mix shot with the slug, listen here, cub, when I digged up
[Verse 3]
Play slick and get stuck
Don't play tough, boy, go and get it up
Hey yo, Cube, tell me this
Why half of the homies gettin' worked by a bitch
Then they fall in love and get hurt by a bitch
Nine months later, cuz got murked by a bitch
See, I'm just a **** that you don't wanna
Reverse the game on her, put the bitch on the corner
Welcome to California
[Verse 4]
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
(Welcome to Cali)
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
(Welcome to Cali)
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
(Welcome to Cali)
[Verse 5]
Come hit the town, drop down, ****
L.A.X., top down, ****
I'm scoopin' you up, you rollin' or what?
I know what you came for, I'm rollin' it up
Snoop Dogg, ****, y'all hold up
Never thought Ice Cube would show up
But I'm in the studio gettin' fucked up
With a beat from Battlecat, a **** lucked up
I got my hustle down, look and learn
See how a hot **** cook and burn
A **** earn like David Stern
Mixed with Big Worm when he off that Sherm now
Bust a U-turn, come by your hood
For motherfuckers that think I went Hollywood
Pick a coast, it got to be the west
I live out there, from the WS, **** (West side)
[Verse 6]
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
(Welcome to Cali)
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
(Welcome to Cali)
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
(Welcome to Cali)
[Verse 7]
Feel asleep on the plane and so did he
Woke up chillin' in the LBC
I grew up in the NHC
But that ain't what I turned out to be
Understand me, that I'm still a G
Who ain't never spent a day in a penitentiary
Now I'm rappin' with Snoop D O double G
And got the whole fuckin' world, ****, lovin' me
[Verse 8]
Yep, yep, they love him to death
'Cause he walk under water without gettin' wet
Roll through the neighborhood without gettin' checked
So gone and so blown, are we there yet?
You wonder why I got the S on my chest
'Cause I'm a motherfuckin' vet from the wild, wild west
I used to sing Bennie and the Jets
**** so boss now I sip Henny on my jets
From the east back to the west
[Verse 9]
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
(Welcome to Cali)
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
(Welcome to Cali)
L.A.X., oh, Cali? No doubt, baby, no doubt
(Welcome to Cali)
What's happenin', lil' homie, what you finna get into, my nig
Ah cuz
