Based on a true story Lyrics by Mr. Criminal

Palm Trees and Sunsets

2017

Verse 1:
Ive been through this, survived that
Closest homies tried to stab me in my back
Street wars like afghan and iraq
They took my homies and we can't have em back
Kush blunt burning turning to ashes
As I’m thinking deep thoughts no blinking
Steady sinking to a deep mind state
How did I affect the crime rate
Came out bangin’ my mentality from the gate
No mercy on my homies just sent they asses up state no parole
Got a prison hoe
No fake shit
Unfortunately, this is how the story goes
Based on a true story ese real facts
Though the little homie Snapper broke out of East lake with a pistol
Marvin sandoval Rest in peace
The lakers we miss you, another homie dead
Didn’t make it out of school but he made to the news
Stuck in the Cali blues, little homie Downer too
Smoked an army vet, fresh from Iraq
They gave the homie all day
There ain’t no coming back
And my homie Bandit just passed away
It’s fucked up heard about the shit just the other day
