Mos Def

(Softly)

This is the place They say

People come from far far far away

To find their dreams

Chasin down these meteors and comets called dreams

(Chasin em Chasin em Chasin em...)

In the sky of life

In certain hotspots where these meteors and stars have a tendency to fall

And legend has it (break) that California is one of those spots

I believe that to be true... They say...This the place where stars are born

They say...this is the place where legends are made

They say....this is the place where angels come play

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

)for you 4x)

california..knows how to make dreams seem so sweet

california..knows how to whisper in your ear and tell you (your a star 5x)

and you keep on staring

pretty girls by the oceanside

softly refuse to shine

In the city of LA

They say the angels come play

In the city..City of compton All over the world

In the city Of good old watts
