MOS DEF LYRICS - Kalifornia

"Kalifornia"



[singing]

This is the place... where you say



[talking]

People come from far, far, far away to find their dreams

Chasin' down these meteors and comets

(chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em down)

Called dreams, in the sky of life

(chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em down

chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em) There certain hot spots

Where these meteors and stars have tendency to fall

And legend has it that California is one of those spots

I believe that to be true



[singing]

They say this is the place stars are born

They say this is the place (place) legends are made

They say this is the place where angels come again, ay ay

They say that this is the place where it all can happen for you

(for you, for you, for you)

California knows how to make dreams seem so sweet

California knows how to-

Place where ain't no?? tell ya you're a star

You're a star, you're a star, you're a star, you're a star (star)

You're a star and you keep on shinin'

(you're a star, you're a star, you're a star, you're a star)

Pretty girls by the oceanside (side)

Stars that refuse to shine (shine, shine)

This is on your mind (i-i-i-ind-i)

California knows how to party (indeed)

In the city of L. A. (ay ay ay ay ay ay ay)

They say that angels come again

In the city, city of Compton (Compton, Compton, Compton, Compton)

Black people all over the? other side?

In the city of good ol' Watts (Watts, Watts, Watts, Watts, Watts)

Make them stop, make them stop

In the city, California don't stop (don't stop)

All the way from L. A. to the Bay (indeed)

Stars fall down here, that's what they say (indeed)

All the way from L. A. to the Bay (indeed)

Stars fall down here, that's what they say (indeed)

It's everything they say, it's everything they say

Distant lights from across the Bay

California! It's the C-A-L-I-F-O-R-N-I-A

California knows how to make me smile sometime

Yes they do (woo) yes they do

California-hey-ay knows how to do what they do

When they do what they do

When they do what they do to me and you too, hey-ay

California-how-hey-ay-ay (phenomenon, phenomenon)

Worldwide original style (indeed)

Mos Def on the profile (indeed)

Adamsville droppin' you so very well

Worlwide original style (indeed)

Mos Def on the profile (indeed)

Worldwide original style (indeed)

Mos Def on the profile (indeed)

Adamsville rockin' you so very well (indeed)

Worldwide original style (indeed)

Mos Def on the profile (indeed)

Adamsville rockin' you so very well (woo)

In the city of L. A. (ay ay ay ay ay ay ay)

It's everything they say, it's everything they say

It's everything they say
