In a west coast seaside town
To a family that lived inside a Chevy Impala
That was always breaking down
Mama said he was dangerous
Yeah he was born with that California blood
He was a stranger in a city of bridges
His family was dying in the rain
So they drove to Pasadena in a U-Haul truck
Eating fast food and driving late
Daddy said there was nothing to be afraid of
Oo they were strong with that California blood
It took awhile to understand
There is a light in the darkness at the end of the day
It took awhile to understand
There is joy in the struggle, there is beauty inside the rage
It took awhile for them to understand
They were not strangers in a strange land anymore
They were home
They found their place in the sun
They found their place in the sun
They found their place in the sun
Running wild inside their California blood
He plays guitar in his car at night
When he needs a place to be alone
He sings out loud where no one can hear him
With a voice that he has never known
He was a hungry man living in a falling town
He climbed up to a place where he could walk on the solid ground
A twisted man living in his own way
He swaggers with a limp, happy damage from the old days
It took awhile for him to understand
There is a light in the darkness, there is beauty in his broken hand
It took awhile for him to understand
That he will never be a stranger, anywhere, ever again
He found his place in the sun
Running wild inside his California blood
He found his place in the sun
