Verse 1 (Intellect):
Im from the sunny Long beach where guns get cocked in these streets
Eastsidaz where the unloyal get toe tags on they feet
No time for gamin', why you still playin'
Local PD gun you down where you layin'
Lil' homies bang the hood to gain street rep
So they set to push the blow like a pro street vet
West coast Long Beach that's where im from
Consequences turn deadly and it could be the outcome
We used to knuckle up, now we see the wig splt
You from the wrong area they trip on some crip shit
The concrete jungles dogg bodies get mopped
You still prayin' for god but the devil gonna plot
Hook (Jedi):
This is just a small introduction to Shining Sons music
Long Beach city that's the way we do it
Lets get our grind on, lets get our shine one
And come through daytime with the lights one
Tryin' to maintain, step ya game
It's still a damn mess but you still gangbang
Yea, Shining Sons in the House
Yea, Shining Sons in the House!
Verse 2 (Jedi):
City by the sea, North, West, & East
Dealin' with the violence makin' ends meet
All the years on the east still survivin'
Growin' up around the block where you had no option
Ain't tryin' to promote it dogg it's been reality
Brainwashed society with the mentality
Street by street, knuckles crack guns clap
If you gang affiliated, we'll see what's on yo hat
Cerritos & 5th ave., squabble if you get mad
On my block is working class tryin' to get fast cash
We them type of rappers causin' propoganda
Real life no movie stars no actors
Hook (Jedi):
This is just a small introduction to Shining Sons music
Long Beach city that's the way we do it
Lets get our grind on, lets get our shine one
And come through daytime with the lights one
Tryin' to maintain, step ya game
It's still a damn mess but you still gangbang
Yea, Shining Sons in the House
Yea, Shining Sons in the House!
Cuts by DJ ET:
24/7 Eastidin' it
I represent that shit till' it don't stop
Long beach, Eastsidin it
So what that LBC like
Filipino G from the L-B-C (x2)
The name nods to ancient Egypt, the band includes progressive British jazz heads, and their sound is fiery and mesmeric.
