    Lyrics:
    California love
    California knows how to party
    California knows how to party
    In the city of L.A
    In the city of good ol' Watts
    In the city, the city of Compton
    We keep it rockin', we keep it rockin'
    Now let me welcome everybody to the Wild Wild West
    A state that's untouchable like Eliot Ness
    The track hits your eardrum like a slug to your chest
    Pack a vest for your Jimmy in the city of sex
    We in that Sunshine State where the bomb-ass hemp be
    The state where you never find a dance floor empty
    And pimps be on a mission for them greens
    Lean mean money-making-machines servin' fiends
    I been in the game for 10 years makin' rap tunes
    Ever since honeys was wearin' Sassoon
    Now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me
    Diamonds shinin', lookin' like I robbed Liberace
    It's all good, from Diego to the Bay
    Your city is the bomb if your city makin' pay
    Throw up a finger if you feel the same way
    Dre puttin' it down for Californ-i-a
    California knows how to party
    California knows how to party (Yes, they do)
    In the city of L.A
    In the city of good ol' Watts
    In the city, the city of Compton
    We keep it rockin', we keep it rockin'
    Shake, shake it, baby
    Shake, shake it, shake it baby
    Shake, shake it, mama
    Shake it, Cali
    Shake, shake it, baby
    Shake, shake it
    Shake, shake it mama
    Shake it
    Out on bail, fresh out of jail, California dreamin'
    Soon as I step on the scene, I'm hearin' hoochies screamin'
    Fiendin' for money and alcohol, the life of a Westside player
    Where cowards die and the strong ball
    Only in Cali where we riot, not rally, to live and die
    In L.A. we wearin' Chucks, not Ballys (yeah, that's right)
    Dressed in Locs and Khaki suits, and ride is what we do
    Flossin' but have caution: we collide with other crews
    Famous because we program
    Worldwide, let them recognize from Long Beach to Rosecrans
    Bumpin' and grindin' like a slow jam
    It's Westside, so you know the Row won't bow down to no man
    Say what you say, but give me that bomb beat from Dre
    Let me serenade the streets of L.A
    From Oakland to Sac-town, the Bay Area and back down
    Cali is where they put their mack down; give me love!
    California knows how to party
    California knows how to party
    In the city of L.A
    In the city of good ol' Watts
    In the city, the city of Compton
    We keep it rockin', we keep it rockin'
    Shake, shake it, baby
    Shake, shake it
    Shake, shake it, mama
    Shake it, Cali
    Shake, shake it, baby
    Shake, shake it
    Shake, shake it mama
    Shake it, Cali
    Uh, yeah, uh, uh, Long Beach in the house
    Uh, yeah, Oaktown
    Oakland definitely in the house
    Frisco, Frisco
    And you know L.A. up in this
    Pasadena, where you at?
    Yeah, Inglewood
    Inglewood always up to no good
    Even Hollywood tryin' to get a piece, baby
    Sacramento, Sacramento where you at?
    Throw it up, y'all! Throw it up, throw it up!
    I can't see ya
    Let's show these fools how we do it on this Westside
    'Cause you and I know it's the best side
    Yeah, that's right
    West Coast, West Coast
    California love
    California love, yeah
    California knows how to party
    California knows how to party
    In the city of L.A
    In the city of good ol' Watts
    In the city, the city of Compton
    We keep 'em rockin', we keep 'em rockin'
    Just come on shake, shake it, baby
    Baby, baby, shake it mama, shake it mama, shake it mama

    Pac was such a beautiful soul. His spirit and way through his life were so human, so aware of his existence, so consciously living until the very last breath as far as I can tell. His physical death, yet his mind and spirit live on. His message and way to take on his life no matter what he was facing, that's rare. So rare that his young body of 25 contained a soul older than the wise old man.
    He said in one of his interviews " I got the whole world fear me, at 23, weighing 160 lbs and I haven't even started, I haven't even write out my plan yet."
    So powerful. He had no filters, no masks, just a pure, direct, honest, open and fully real human being. And he did what he thought best with his life and was so open and pure with his feelings and emotions ...
    He definitely is the closest person I've never met physically, but spiritually yes.
    Poet, actor, rapper, activist, socially aware.
    Thriving on so many levels with everything life threw at him. Inspirational and example for many.
    He fought for what he believed in and lived. He faced all his fears and laid them bare in his life, all there in the open. His songs, acting roles, interviews, poems, the way he lived.
    That recent docu series called Dear Mama is a gem on so many levels.
    The name says it all. Afeni, the reason Tupac Amaru Shakur excited in the first place. And I mean him as a person, his name, and his character and power to take on life and all challenges. A combination of life, societies child that society also formed him as he said and of course such a big main part goes to his mom, Afeni. Her life, what she did and how she raised him.
    There is so much to say, so let's keep their spirit and message alive and spread it.
    Honor these beautiful souls and share it. Spirits like these 2 we definitely need in this world.

As I rolled my eyes but gave in cause I could see the passion in this kids face. I listen to it and as I smiled my Sons face lit up and was he ever so stoked up that I agreed! I remember like yesterday how my Son mourned with the world the day Tupac's life was taken. My Precious Son Tyler died in his sleep 3 yrs after Tupac lost his, May they both RIP.

      @@umairbaig6149 Thank you for sharing with me. Life sometimes seems unfair, and other times it makes up for the unfairness with blessings. How blessed I was to been called "Mom" by an amazing young man for 22 yrs. He will forever live on in the hearts of many, who's lives were touched by his compassion and love for the one and only race... The "Human Race".... He made me very proud!💕I wish you nothing but the best that life has to offer in your journey ahead...💕

    Tupac accomplished so much in his short life. Music, travel, marriage, writing, movies, friends & enemies. He fit a full lifetime of memories into 25 years.

If you read the notes / death messages tupac’s mom received you will find one from eminem himself saying that tupac is the sole reason he continued rapping and didnt quit. Because it made em feel like he should keep being his authentic self

      Thank you Jay. I am a whitewash Latin fool... but There is a huge place in my heart for Rap. I just have not heard any "Rappers" since the platinum days of "Death Row" and the East coast's rivalry.
