Lyrics California - Jelly Roll

It's like a devil sittin' on my shoulder
And he keeps tellin' me just to come over
And I can't think straight 'cause I ain't sober
I only do cocaine in California
In California, in California, in California
And I'm a long way from home right now
In California

Lord, please just keep surroundin' me
Tryna escape these demons
But I feel like they keep houndin' me
Friends talkin' down on me
Mama says she's proud of me
Stayin' at the chamber and
Snortin' lines on the balcony
And for some reason, I keep thinkin' about jumpin', man
I can't believe I'm thinkin' this way

I came from nothin', it's amazin'
All of the sudden everybody's lovin' him
Wasn't long ago that he was stayin' at the Budget Inn
Came to Hollywood, he ain't know what a budget is
Next thang you know they tryna fuck him out his publishin'
These white lines have him feelin' like the light's lime
They sayin' that he's next, he's waitin', it's the right time

It's like a devil sittin' on my shoulder
And he keeps tellin' me just to come over
And I can't think straight 'cause I ain't sober
I only do cocaine in California
In California, in California, in California
And I'm a long way from home right now
In California

Everyday I awake, hit my knees and start to pray
Try to find the words to say but so much sin is in the way
What does it take just to make it in this scandalous game?
I ain't got no umbrella, I just stand in the rain
Man, it takes a strong mind just to handle the fame
Willin' to destroy anythin' that stand in the way

Next thang you know, I'm learnin' thangs that I never knew
Next thang you know, I'm doin' thangs I said I'd never do
For good times, man, it's all about a good vibe
I'm so high, I swear to God I feel a could fly
Walkin' out the rainbow room high as I ever been
Told Jackie Chan, I can't believe they finally let us in

It's like a devil sittin' on my shoulder
And he keeps tellin' me just to come over
And I can't think straight 'cause I ain't sober
I only do cocaine in California
In California, in California, in California
And I'm a long way from home right now
In Califonia

Smokin' weed, just let me be
I'm tryna buy my soul back, will they set me free?
I got fake friends now, I know we'll never talk
Again if my mother fuckin' record blops
So I just keep on tryna build this from the ground up
Wasn't long ago that I was really weighin' pounds up
Really from the streets so keep that pussy shit from 'round us
And roll some good weed, somebody pour that crown up

It's like a devil sittin' on my shoulder
And he keeps tellin' me just to come over
And I can't think straight 'cause I ain't sober
I only do cocaine in California
In California, in California, in California
And I'm a long way from home right now
In California
