[Intro: Scratches & Scratches & Blu]
"If it ain't red then it must be blue"
"No matter where I go, or how far I roam"
"Blue, baby, just like yourself"
"Exile and B-L"
[Verse 1: Blu]
The Los Angeles city skyline is like a photograph of my mind
I could feel the sea's breeze every time that I rhyme
Cool guy, coulda played trumpet in a suit and tie
Barbers coulda cut a smoother line so it's U-N-I-versal
First song I ever recorded
Felt important, I had to paint my portrait enormous
Clouds forming, the sun falls and darkness rises
Yo it's like this every time I close my eyelids
Bro I grew up in the city of violence, was known for the riots
And now that I'm grown, I stay blown all alone
Was thinking bout those who didn't make it
In my zone dreaming bout how far we could take it
From the basement, I never been one to run from
Guns sung every night where I come from, the blood runs (B-L)
Never fail, you can tell hell
I would never sell out, even if I'm on sale, retail
Pre-sales, you can see God in the details
Midnight Blue, Kenny Burrell
Shocked the world like the law got caught in the third rail, burn Ls
Thinkin bout my daughter's future walking outta jail
So thorough, even as a kid, I wanted to be big
Like Jigga, "Can I Live?," ten siblings need a crib
Like the ones on Cribs, niggas facing long bids
Tryna make it where I live, real talk, it's common sense, I'm
