Chorus

12 years ago, a friend of mine

Asked me to spit these MC rhymes

So I said this rhyme I'm about to say

The beat was dope, and it went this way…


Well my name is T, from the golden state

They call San Andreas cause I cause earthquakes

Been rhyming on the mic since the age of 8

The fans and the people tell me that I'm great

Yall can hate, but they relate, trying to get all of you walking through them pearly gates

I been to city's all around the globe, Nicaragua

Australia down to Tokyo, Lima Peru and London back to San Tropez

When I'm in Paris France pale vu France

Seen me on TV and on big screens

Now I'm crushing MC's like they jelly beans

Now get both of them hands in tha air

And wave em all around like in around like B-Boys in flair

We bringing the noise, and a raising our voice

Plus I keep it old school like the Beastie Boys.


I had to take this rhyme back to the 80's

When rap was bout skills DJ's and the ladies

Didn't rhyme about sex and degrading themselves

And rappers didn't glorify busting em' shells

This is a hip-hop blast from the past, stop

All the violence put away all the straps

Better enjoy the music cuz it's not gonna last

If we keep on glorifying all the killing and gats

The milies and Mac's the chronic and hash and the cats slanging perico on the corner for cash

We gotta try to make a change for the better, and stop

Selling out for the fame and the cheddar, put down berretta

Quit throwing up letters

I'm trying to make a difference it ain't getting no better

That's why I came to represent for all of my people

Wit conscious rap Chico, cuz it's almost illegal
