Welcome to the bay
|
where the clouds can't stay
|
they're chased away by the rays
|
blazed by the sun
|
that sets in the west
|
where money travels hands
|
like our credit card debts
|
like screw it I'mma pick up
|
those brand new kicks
|
charge it to the game worry
|
bout it when we rich
|
like silicon valley
|
where nerds get hitched
|
to super hot wifey's
|
with silicon chest
|
who might fund the bricks
|
that'll build the projects
|
mostly if it's a look
|
that'll increase margins
|
and everyday we walk past
|
those that's starving
|
or trying to get a hit
|
the source of their problems
|
hey I'm just trying do the
|
best that I can
|
in a hi tech world
|
moving faster than grams
|
slanged in the Mission district
|
where gunshots are numerous
|
drug problems are ludicrous
|
crack babies from uterus
|
hey I know a few know
|
what I'm talking about
|
it's the place we've grown
|
it's a place called home
|
it's a place that we face
|
everyday in the morn
|
a place if I leave best
|
believe i'll be torn
|
it's the bay
|
|
No matter how long I can stay
|
I'll be here
|
No matter how long I'm away
|
I'll be there
|
No matter how long I can stay
|
I'll be here
|
No matter how long I'm away
|
I'll be there
|
|
And it was only 1 score
|
and 7 years ago
|
my folks came to the bay
|
searching for vehicles
|
they had the drive to drive
|
towards the scenic view
|
flat broke where hopes
|
and dreams were feasible
|
coming from Asia things
|
were barely readable
|
burgers and fries things
|
were barely eatable
|
but opportune this place
|
was unbelievable
|
inconceivable when words
|
like chink were teachable
|
despite the racism they asked
|
what would Jesus do
|
and prayed for children God
|
willing received a few
|
then I arrived survived 89'
|
when quakes shook us up
|
and scuffed our state of mind
|
I grew up to an ill fitting suit trying to climb
|
from corporate to forfeit scoring
|
checks to rhyme
|
and I'm now in Frisco water surrounds my grind
|
and men in leather chaps or chaps
|
with gang signs
|
the home of hyphy
|
where living is pricey
|
and blood paints the streets
|
that police just might see
|
it's the home
|
I'm at raised and born the home if I leave best
|
believe I'll be torn
|
it's the bay
|
|
it's the bay
|
|
No matter how long I can stay
|
I'll be here
|
No matter how long I'm away
|
I'll be there
|
No matter how long I can stay
|
I'll be here
|
No matter how long I'm away
|
I'll be there
|
|
inhale exhale
|
take a breath that's the bay we smell
|
inhale exhale
|
take a breath it's the place we dwell
|
inhale exhale
|
take a breath that's the bay we smell
|
inhale exhale
|
check it out as the bay prevails
