Speech (0:13)

B
It's a Reality check from the streets of Southern California
D 
With brothas always smokin' on the doja
E
The O.P.M., damn we rollin'
B
Hand on the mic till we decide about the sick life

D
California where I raised till this very day
E
Hell to pay for the ways of the blaze
B
Everyday a hundred miles an hour
B
Cause my soul's been devoured
D
Never looked up above and push came to shove
E
As it usually does, keepin' with these thugs
B
Doin' all of these drugs with no means of direction
B
Infection, but here's my objection



Verse (0:46)

D
Rejection by your whole congregation
E
With no empathy for my situation
B
No place in society that's my reality
B
Angry don't know who's the enemy
D
I'm in deep, underneath the streets
E
It's hard to creep from city to city
With all these hitters and the heat
B
Killin' me stealin from me, makes no sense to me
B
So I keep it tight with the homies in the family

Here's a reality check from the streets of california
E
Keep your eyes wide open to what's really goin' on yo
B
Things ain't always what they seem
B
Things ain't always what they seem
D
Here's a reality check from the streets of california
E
Keep your eyes wide open to what's really goin' on yo
B
Things ain't always what they seem

Things ain't always what they seem

Verse (1:36)

D
We're all smokin, tryin' broken homes
E
Chokin' locos, for pesos, slingin' dope by the case os
B
Smokin' cocos, laced with dope and opium
B
Cities for niggaz causin' fuckin' pandemonium
D
Spoiled by suburbia, Cottonmouth what then all the man
E
Formin' corny reputations
B
Bustin' tracks from Kid Kreation me and the artists
B
Who performed the hardest collaberations

D
Born and raised in the golden state
Don't invite no plates servin' up some dinner
E
For southern county serial sinner
B
Imperial, superial lyrical
In again, see the opium den, 
We see the man who posed prohibitin'
D
And drop a eight to eliminate a peaceful
E
Evolution of man for your political pollution
B
There's no solution for these county criminal minds
B
Just subliminal rhymes, hypnotizing mankind

D
Here's a reality check from the streets of califonia



Verse (2:43)

E
See california the major growth industry
Are private security and penitentiary
D
Risin from the climatose cold war economies
That's why the pigs got my homies down on their knees
E
Lined up against the walls, so the community can see
That the po po won't go away, so please now
D
Open up your eyes and realize
                                                       E
The land of sunny skies, disguised as paradise, is a lie
