In The Good - Visionaries, Ariano

Los Angeles Mid-City in fact

I used to run around the swap meet with my liquor store hat

Before I ever even rapped

I would — be there just loitering

with my Raider Starter jacket tryin' to get some embroidery

All my homies older than me

Always lookin' over my shoulder makin' sure that I know what I needed to know

to be

I’m not a veterano O. G

I just studied at The Good Life to be a better emcee

knock on wood

that I never went to prison

Did a couple days in county

Quick in and out the system

To me- LA will always be the chillin' villainism

at the catechism

Tube socks and Cortez

or flip flops

where you hear the surfinest dude

screamin' beiotch

Jerry curl, mullets

skaters and gangsters

who ain’t afraid to pull it

with so much marijuana in the lbc

it’s kinda hard not hookin' up a bag o' trees

kids saggin' at three

wrappin' a sheet around a dead body in the streets

went to Toe Jam’s bustin' listenin' to beats

most the rap I listened to came from the east

except for ATL, CPO and King T

saw a bunch of in and outs with DJ Speed

Mixmaster Spade DJ Trane with an E

The telescopes out anyone can be reached

word to RBX there’s no stars in Long Beach
