"California"
(Dm, Am,  Bb, Gm)
Never goin' home, n-n-never goin' home
DmI can't stop, never let a hater
Kill your dreAmams, 19, I got paper
BbKatniss Everdeen
GmNah, it's always in my favor                                
I pull up on the scene, black tee and a Blazer
DmWon't chase a woman, I re-place
AmI'll make you have deja vu when I walk by
BbLike, "Hey it's that guy! Yeah aren't you from Vine?"
GmHell nah I'm from Nebraska, get your facts aligned
DmBut I ain't gonna lie, Jack and Jack
AmDid blow up on the app but we're more than that
BbBest duo in LA since Kobe-Shaq
GmWe need a whole demolition just to hold us back
DmRun circles around the competition, culdesacs
AmLegs keep burnin' but it's so worth it
BbWhen you're young and earnin' money like a surgeon
GmYeah it's cool and all but spreadin' love's my purpose
 Dm-                             Am    Bb-        Gm  
So who's gonna tell me I can't do
                                   Dm- Am  
Anything I put my mind to
BbNow I ain't tryna hear it
GmBitch get up out my ear
I'm just a midwest Dmkid dreamin' CaliforniaAm  
BbOne way ticket cause I had to shGmow yah
DmFlow so sick, make you catch pneumonAmia
BbI'm never goin' home, n-n-never Gmgoin' home
DmNo way, no waAmy
BbNever goin' home, n-n-neveGmr goin' home
DmNo way, no Amway
BbNever goin' home, n-n-neveGmr goin' home
No way
DmI'm fresh up in the game and I'm here to stay
AmDon't really got my shit together, just appear this way
BbAnd I'm like everybody else, I got fears to face
GmNowadays even the real are just a realist phase
DmAnd nobody's really what they seem
AmLearned that the hard way, cuts run deep
BbAnd these millions of people put their trust in me
GmMan I got a lot of pressure but I must succeed
DmSo I'm a keep grindin' and workin', I'm finally certain
AmMy life is not meant to be wasted
BbThe line of success all these people be tracin'
GmThat shit, it ain't me, I'm a play my own way
DmAnd I'm a little unorthodox, I can't lie
AmNo I ain't gonna conform I rock my own style
BbTell that to the fans and everybody by side
GmYo we're headed to the top and you should keep a close eye
 Dm-                             Am    Bb-        Gm  
So who's gonna tell me I can't do
                                   Dm- Am

Never goin' home, n-n-never goin' home

I can't stop, never let a hater

Kill your dreams, 19, I got paper

Katniss Everdeen

Nah, it's always in my favor

I pull up on the scene, black tee and a Blazer

Won't chase a woman, I re-place

I'll make you have deja vu when I walk by

Like, "Hey it's that guy! Yeah aren't you from Vine?"

Hell nah I'm from Nebraska, get your facts aligned

But I ain't gonna lie, Jack and Jack

Did blow up on the app but we're more than that

Best duo in LA since Kobe-Shaq

We need a whole demolition just to hold us back

Run circles around the competition, culdesacs

Legs keep burnin' but it's so worth it

When you're young and earnin' money like a surgeon

Yeah it's cool and all but spreadin' love's my purpose

Dm Am Bb Gm

Don't really got my shit together, just appear this way

And I'm like everybody else, I got fears to face

Nowadays even the real are just a realist phase

And nobody's really what they seem

Learned that the hard way, cuts run deep

And these millions of people put their trust in me

Man I got a lot of pressure but I must succeed

So I'm a keep grindin' and workin', I'm finally certain

My life is not meant to be wasted

The line of success all these people be tracin'

And I'm a little unorthodox, I can't lie

No I ain't gonna conform I rock my own style

Tell that to the fans and everybody by side
