Compton Isn T Too Far Away lyrics

COMPTON ISN`T TOO FAR AWAY
by Afroman

When I was young we wanted to get out the ghetto
But after we moved out of the ghetto
It was hard to get things we needed

I took a picture in the hood
Standing by the door
White T shirt and black khakis
Sagging kind of low
I see the corner that I worked
With my homies in the back
LAPD searching us
Looking for some crack

I don`t need to be the king of the world
All I need is some activator
For my Jehri curl

CHORUS:
Compton isn`t too far away
Neither is South Central LA
No matter what the cops try and say

We move from South Central
To the desert of the real high
Palmdale-Lancaster
Blue suburban sky
When I come home late at night
The sheriff harasses me
He puts me in the choke hold
So bad I can barely breath

I`m the hungry hustler Afroman
I`m going parking lot platinum in my Astrovan

CHORUS:
Compton isn`t too far away
Neither is South Central LA
No matter what the cops try and say
I`m selling yay

I see police lights
On palmdale boulevard
Back-up units pulling in
I`m thinking oh my god
I got nowhere else to go
My hands are in the air
I don`t know what to do
But you can`t have my weed and my brew
