In the city by the sea baby
Long Beach there never be no peace on the East Side
In the city by the sea

Bros killing bros while others getting money
Slowly falling off living life like zombies
Looking so stupid but thinking its funny
Half yall dudes got a friend named Johnny
Law cracking down on a gang of nonsense
And all my peeps getting caught up in a twist
Pillow talking in love with the chicks
I know yall heard loose lips sink ships
On the other hand is everybody Marvin Gaye
Tryna get a record deal in any kind of way
Jim Jones everybody sipping koolaid
The hood tore up police throwing raids
Old dudes still thinking that they ass young
Until they run across that right dam one
Who serves they ass on a platter well done
Then go to the beach and toss that gun
Everybody humping catching HIV
Bareback style in the city by the sea
Ain't no peace young cats rather beef
Not enough Indians everybody chiefs

In the city by the sea baby
Long Beach there never be no peace on the East Side
Nooo
In the city by the sea baby
Long Beach there never be no peace on the East Side
In the city by the sea

Hood rats tricking off their daughters for the funds
Momma used to do the same thing when I was young
Sister got sprung on them iddy biddy rocks
Half my hood probably tapped that twot
Got me tripping how they messing up the children
Filling their clean slates with straight poison
Rock in a dark room loc decisions
Watch some fool think I'm speaking his business
Dogs will holler if they're struck by objects
Lean on the spirit protect your necks
Don't get caught in the stings on the set
Cause fools out here is working with the fed
Tryna place jackets on conscious brothers
Sacrifice them so they can act like gangsters
Cold cold game brings ruff ass weather
Storming like hell let me grab my umbrella

In the city by the sea baby
Long Beach there never be no peace on the East Side
Nooo
In the city by the sea baby
Long Beach there never be no peace on the East Side
In the city by the sea

Some folks treat dogs better than ninjas
Wish a fool would tryda hit a dog figga
He'll call his handler and send you up the river
Spy for then state stay away from that figga
Damn nowadays I see a lot of new faces
Black man only catch slugs and cases
Shady individuals high key races
Keeping down blacks in so many places
Own kind really don't care what's up
Now y'all know why everyone stuck

In the city by the sea baby
Long Beach there never be no peace on the East Side
Nooo
In the city by the sea baby
Long Beach there never be no peace on the East Side
In the city by the sea
