Hey, I was walking at the grocery store the other
Day and some guy asked me where I'm from out the blue
I told him Arkansas, and then he proceeded to get aggressive
L.A. got its own language, buddy, let me break down the slang
When they ask you where you from, they wanna know if you bang
They probably ask you 'cause you look
Just like the opposite gang (Ayy)
So be careful what you wear dependin' on where you hang
On the dead homies, means somebody
Tellin' the truth (Ayy, run that back)
On that fake bitch, means somebody tryna fight you
If somebody says "palabra", that means one of two
They either asking you a question or confirmin' the truth (Palabra?)
See, the pad is where you live, a ki of coke is just a brick
If they callin' you a leva then they callin' you a bitch (Bitch)
Instead of saying "I don't think so", they say "nah, dick"
If you came up on some money, you say "I hit a lick" (Rrah)
If you call a girl your jaina, that means she's your lady
If she says "shoot the club up", she's ready for your baby (Mwah)
The Bloods replace the C's with B's, that shit is brazy
The Crips call you a custer, not a buster, it's amazing (Interesting)
It's confusing, if she like you then she choosing up
If she for the streets, she ain't yours, buddy, give it up
Oh, you like to party? That means you do cocaine
White girl, Kelly, blow, it's all the same
If you a sick-ass fool, then you're a cool guy
If you're on a sick one, you're probably high (Okay)
If I text you "Aight, bet", then I'm telling you "bye"
If they put it on a set, then they're not tellin' a lie, facts
L.A., we keep it dangerous, I rep that with my fingers
Buddha, West Coast, where I'm from, we speakin' Spanglish (Blah)
They say when I talk, it's like a total different language
Hablo bien quebrado, so they don't understand us
Califas hella dangerous, rep that with my fingers
Buddha, West Coast, where I'm from, we speakin' Spanglish (Blah)
They say when I talk, it's like a total different language
Hablo bien quebrado, so they don't understand this
L.A. slang
Okay, let me see, where do I start? (Hmm)
If you a punk and you scared, then we'll call you a mark (Mark)
Marked out, you been exposed for not havin' a heart
If you agree with someone's statement, then you'll tell 'em that part
If I tell you "stay dangerous", I'm
Telling you to stay safe (I'm beefin')
That's ironic 'cause L.A. is not a safe place
A squabble is a fight, you got knocked
Out, you got packed out (Pew, pew)
"I'm 'bout to trip", that means I'm 'bout to act out (Ah)
If you down to risk it all, then you a crash out
A 304 is sellin' coochie with her ass out
If you don't bang, you're considered a civilian (Gang)
If you're a tuna, you're a turnt-up non-affiliate (Blah)
I'm a joint, that's me saying I'm a catch
If I want some good head, say I want my soul snatched
If you ain't getting no chili, then you a brokie (No brokie)
If you got status in your barrio, you a trophy
As we spillin' game, here's some information (What?)
To catch a beatdown, that's a transformation (Damn)
Reserve first arrivals when your set trippin' (Rrah)
If they catch you out of bounds, that's
Caught slippin' (Ayy, where you from, fool?)
Better know the fuckin' area
You might be on the corner fuckin' up another feria (Bitch)
That's the paper if you wanna be a baller
If you're lookin' for permission, better see the shot caller (Shh)
'Cause nothing goes down without a ride approval
And if you catch a green light, time for removal (Get outta here)
Rubberneckin' 'cause you're paranoid, plain and simple
What it means, you got to keep your head on a swivel
When it's jumpin' off, you need hang time
When they're throwin' up a set, that's a gang sign (Bang man)
Con eso no te metas
And everything I said es la neta (Real talk)
L.A., we keep it dangerous, I rep that with my fingers
Buddha, West Coast, where I'm from, we speakin' Spanglish (Blah)
They say when I talk, it's like a total different language
Hablo bien quebrado, so they don't understand us
Califas hella dangerous, rep that with my fingers
Buddha, West Coast, where I'm from, we speakin' Spanglish (Blah)
They say when I talk, it's like a total different language
Hablo bien quebrado, so they don't understand this
L.A. slang
Ayy, first off, look, let me show you how it goes (Nigga)
When trades and neighborhoods will probably never get along (Word up)
Well, it's crazy on the Eastside, so you never really know (Look)
Gotta check your rear-view before you back up in the sto', mm
Now I'm back to the shit we love the most
Gotta watch how you talk, certain words'll get you smoked, mm
Write this down, this some shit you need to know
If somebody say "check it out", don't ever, ever go (For sure)
Just trust me, it's shit you gotta follow (Follow)
Young niggas slidin' 'round with guns and hollows
Gotta watch these hood bitches 'cause they look like models (Facts)
For real, look, what else you need to know? (Hmm)
If she lives in the projects, then you probably shouldn't go (Ha)
If you ever get cracked, just don't let nobody know
Gotta have some street smarts, but still act like you slow
L.A.'ll set a nigga up, we don't use the back door (Facts)
We'll bring it to your face and leave your brains on the floor
For real, walk a nigga down, we call that shit poppin' domes
We don't do no drive-bys, we hop out and get known, for real
Killa Kaunn, I say for real
L.A., we keep it dangerous, I rep that with my fingers
Buddha, West Coast, where I'm from, we speakin' Spanglish
They say when I talk, it's like a total different language
Hablo bien quebrado, so they don't understand us
Califas hella dangerous, rep that with my fingers
Buddha, West Coast, where I'm from, we speakin' Spanglish
They say when I talk, it's like a total different language
Hablo bien quebrado, so they don't understand this
L.A. slang
