California Dreams
[Verse 1]
It's too smooth
The energy's perfection
The palm trees swing in my direction
We gotta skate or we gon' be late
Fuck it, we gon' bring the party with us anyway
Warren G, I gotta regulate
Gotta say, in my city, there's too many fakes
We let 'em imitate
It ain't what they say, I see it in their face
The sunshine ain't for everyone
Why you think you need to run?
Why you think you need to change?
I ain't gonna judge you babe
Do your thing

[Chorus]
Why you steady California dreamin'
I know you wanna be a star
You wanna be that, you wanna be that
You wanna be famous for no reason
Just never change who you are
She wanna be
(Ooh-wee)

[Verse 2]
Yeah, look, I just gotta say
Look, I just gotta say
You ain't gotta change for me
Too many people fake
And they scared to show their face
It's getting hella boring
'Cause everyone's the same
I know you feel the same
Why, oh why must you be part of it
Just too hard to quit
[Chorus]
Why you steady California dreamin'
I know you wanna be a star
You wanna be that, you wanna be that
You wanna be famous for no reason
Just never change who you are
She wanna be
(Ooh-wee)

[Verse 3]
Yeah, don't flex, it's not cool
I saw you staring from across the room
I'm tryna see what's inside of you
Ain't gotta be perfect 'cause it's not the truth
Like don't flex, it's not cool
I saw you moving from across the room
I'm tryna see what's inside of you
Ain't gotta be perfect 'cause it's not the truth

[Pre-Chorus]
And uh, ooh woah
Think I'm seeing stars when I'm with you tonight
We could see the ocean, get our stars in line
Too far gone
Ain't no coming back
Gotta get used to that (Ooh-wee)
[Chorus]
Steady California dreamin'
I know you wanna be a star
You wanna be that, you wanna be that
You wanna be famous for no reason
Just never change who you are
She wanna be
(Ooh-wee)
