PIGEON JOHN:
Let me show you how a real ___ do it / how I roll a road
block roll right through it / In effect like '88 with fake
Polo / the great state of Cali band we roll solo / numero
uno / dos tres the Don Dada / got the club followin' Pigeon
John's persona / there's none hotta' / not even old man in a
sauna / not even a club in the 80's bumpin' Banana Rama /
Six Tray'? No! / got a Civic with four doors / not even
mine, my girls so I gotta dip low / West Coast/ comin' down
like the Holy Ghost / I set trends they bite them and I
don't boast / no I really do / can't lie I think I'm so fly
/ man without a crew Pigeon John he don't know what to do /
guess I'll just rap/ to all the sad souls in the back / and
hope that they get the hope that I wrote / kickin' it in
Barnes -n- Nobles / reading magazines and drinkin' homemade
cocoa / checkin' out the scene and you know I'm a local /
watching for the schemes and looking out for bozos / so I
can bulldoze
CHORUS:
I'm rockin' with the 4th / A.V.E.N.U.E / this is Pigeon John
original Cali M.C. / rockin' for the nerds / I'm rockin' for
the G's / hands up / plan is to only give you what you need
/ Rockin' with the 4th / J.O.N.E's / this is Pigeon John
original Cali M.C. / I do it for the nerds / do it for the
G's / hands up / plan is to only give you what you need
TENA JONES:
Tena Jones flowin' if you know me it's just Tena / from the
south side part of Little Rock to pushin' BMer's / this
critic said we copied obvious she'd never seen us / others
said we'd never shine and now we headlining arenas / just
rhymin' and climbin' makin' this music for your mind and /
every deal that I'm signin' keep my momma in some diamonds /
and I promised my little sister to push and excel / I'ma pay
all of her tuition when she get into Yale / I got a fetish
for lettuce me and my Avenue team / makin' so much money
even when I'm bummy I'm clean / Mod you remember I was
workin' up in GTE? / now everywhere we go we in the V.I.P. /
didn't have no money then we use to rock it for free / now
Puerto Rican fans pay to be aqui con mi / so I'll see you
haters later laughin' at you cause' you comical / Phenomenal

AKIL:
Los Angeles Unified Skill District / ghetto manuscripts,
California lyricists / ready to flip and spit the live
direct hits / ready for whatever holmes, don't even trip /
yo I uplift and shift my gift / God blessed me with / all
praises due to my Lord for my accomplishments / my testament
I represent is evident / that I'm a full-blooded man check
my fingerprints / I'm definitely, absolutely, positively,
ain't a chicken like George / but know my Roots like I was
Kizzie / the Mandingo lingo live and die born single / make
way for my arrival / make your spine tingle / ain't just to
hear another verse thrust / head rush the Cold Crush /
verbal nunchack's/ what/ feel my detector / missile launch
ejector / North American government wrecker yo!
AHMAD JONES: They call me M-O-D. / ain't never sold a key /
you just a microwave rapper / I'm a dope M.C. / don't say
I'm hatin' cause you fakin' and we takin' it ''B'' / I'm
O.G./ puttin' Cali on the M-A-P / Avenue teach clear as
Evian / reach so we stay beyond / each crew get served like
kishke or filet mignon / peace to D.J's and the streets that
they play me on / crazy long lines/ out they seats like we
Savion / y'all said I was a one hit wonder / world is a
jungle fools wanna take me under / but I won't stop/ just
rock/ like when a glock pops / hip hop was our culture long
before it hit the pop charts / so you cannot box me in /
locked is what I got blocks / I do this like Pac and Big
Poppa fo' they got shot / fake and you hate but I'ma make
you give me my props / and blow up so big you'll be
mistaking us for sasquatch
