[Verse 1]
Yo, uh
Never been one of the same
They're all just lames
That's why you just keep running your mouth
You'll just be stuck in your lane
I'm paving my way
I'm taking this shit out of bounds
Hate to be stuck to a pattern
I'm changing it up
And I got 'em all looking surprised
They're feeling this life that I'm dreaming about
You be talking the same
All I'm hearing these lies
[Chorus]
Baby I've been living out my life
I've made decisions
Y'all just stuck behind my bars
Like I put you in a prison, yeah
12 year old kid
Never knew what this could mean
Was a 12 year old kid
With all these California dreams
Sleeping on me, sleeping on me
Boy I'm so awake
You keep sleeping on me, sleeping on me
Boy its a mistake, yeah
12 year old kid
Never knew what this could mean
Was a 12 year old kid
With all these California dreams (yeah, yeah, uh, oh)
[Verse 2]
I never paid attention
Y'all ask a lot of questions
Cut out with all my goals
Till I'm the one you mention
Flow sharp it cut the tension
Fucking with the vibe
If you just rocking with me
Now your in for one hell of a ride
In town like what
I just wanna know what it feel like
To the rap game dream and the real life
Y'all don't know shit, but my team might
Green light all day, as I speed by
Me high and the hate fuck that
Only got one girl better call back
All bad, but that ass may fall back
Want real big stacks on small cash, woah
Steady but stacking up views
I started from nothing this life is a blessing, yeah
Rappers ask what do I do
Like fuck outta here I ain't giving no lessons, no
This can't be learned by assessments, no
I wasn't out with the sessions, yeah
Swear it's the difference of only just being a hobby
Or straight up profession, yeah
Never be wasting my time
Making these rhymes everyday, yeah
Only thing stuck in my mind, I put in the grind
Get outta my way
I don't care what you are thinking
Believe in the passion
I hear what I'm speaking
I still be a problem
Keep addin' 'em up
Subtract from the fakes
So I know I'll be leaving
[Chorus]
Baby I've been living out my life
I've made decisions
Y'all just stuck behind my bars
Like I put you in a prison, yeah
12 year old kid
Never knew what this could mean
Was a 12 year old kid
With all these California dreams
Sleeping on me, sleeping on me
Boy I'm so awake
You keep sleeping on me, sleeping on me
Boy its a mistake, yeah
12 year old kid
Never knew what this could mean
Was a 12 year old kid
With all these California dreams yeah
[Bridge]
Uh, California dreams yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, California dreams
Cali-Cali-Cali, California dreams
I be living, I be living up these California dreams yeah
[Verse 3]
Palm tree chilling
I'm on a limb I live so lavishly
Leave the fakes behind
Know a few be coming after me
One day I'll take the jump
Cause I really wanna do this
Private pool chilling
Got my girl sending me nude pics
Yo, flying to multiple states
Yeah, buying a couple estates
Yeah, I been predicting my life
True, it ain't been looking to great
Yeah, don't even know how to break
See me just run from the fakes
I spin it right back, like you never gon' catch me
Boy you be stuck as slow as the pace
Your boy got the taste
I mixing it up like its lace
Until I be one of the greats
Done working with lame
My music will travel the states
A million cash in my basement
Join is the movement
I'm living it up while you snoozin'
They asking like Jay how you doing
I'm givin' my all and never give in
I'm moving right past to the time I be losing
[Chorus]
Baby I've been living out my life
I've made decisions
Y'all just stuck behind my bars
Like I put you in a prison, yeah
12 year old kid
Never knew what this could mean
Was a 12 year old kid
With all these California dreams
Sleeping on me, sleeping on me
Boy I'm so awake
You keep sleeping on me, sleeping on me
Boy its a mistake, yeah
12 year old kid
Never knew what this could mean
Was a 12 year old kid
With all these California dreams yeah
[Outro]
Sleeping on me, sleeping on me
Boy I'm so awake
You sleeping on me, sleeping on me
Boy its a mistake, yeah
12 year old kid
Never knew what this could mean
Was a 12 year old kid
With all these California dreams yeah
Yeah, all these California dreams

Was a 12 year old kid
