City Of Angels
By Forklift_philosopher Records
Intro / Chorus:
The City of Angels,I was in for a treat,
Warm sun on my skin, wild parties on the beach.
She asked me intently, “Are you here for a rest?”
I said, “I skipped town from Brooklyn to escape from the ex!”
Verse 1:
Just touched down in L.A.X.,
Heard the weather was nice this time of year out west.
Hot air vibing in the heat off the runway,
I was ready for whatever came next that day.
I’m not here for the smoking, ain’t got no motive,
Just tryna catch some rays and maybe a dip in the ocean.
Chorus:
The City of Angels, I was in for a treat,
Warm sun on my skin, wild parties on the beach.
She asked me intently, “Are you here for a rest?”
I said, “I skipped town from Brooklyn to escape from the ex!”
Verse 2:
Arrived at the hotel, there she stood at the desk,
Soft aura glowing from that pretty floral dress.
Conversation was flowing, she laughed and said,
“Would you like to be my personal guest?”
Chorus:
The City of Angels, I was in for a treat,
Warm sun on my skin, wild parties on the beach.
She asked me intently, “Are you here for a rest?”
I said, “I skipped town from Brooklyn to escape from the ex!”
Verse 3:
City of Angels, she won’t find me here,
I’ll be lost somewhere between Santa Monica and Venice Beach Pier.
Tryna look for myself while the world’s searching for me,
Find me sipping cocktails down Rodeo Drive under palm trees.
Chorus:
The City of Angels, I was in for a treat,
Warm sun on my skin, wild parties on the beach.
She asked me intently, “Are you here for a rest?”
I said, “I skipped town from Brooklyn to escape from the ex!”
Verse 4:
Thought to myself, “From now on, I’m gonna seize the day,”
Fancied a cruise on the Angel Crest Highway.
She said to me, “You’re not from here, are ya?”
I smiled and replied, “Just trying to escape the drama.”
We drove through the canyon with the drop top down,
Sweet harmonies strum from that V8 sound.
Sky painted gold, sun fading to black,
Thought to myself, I might never go back!
Bridge:
Stars peeked out as the sun hung low,
L.A. night in the distance had that electric glow.
She turned to me, said, “Guess we both needed peace,”
And for the first time in a while, I could finally breathe!
Final Chorus ×2:
The City of Angels, I was in for a treat,
Warm sun on my skin, wild parties on the beach.
She asked me intently, “Are you here for a rest?”
Then smiled and said, “Well, come and be my guest.”
I said, “I skipped town from Brooklyn to escape from the ex!”
