Verse 1 (Julius):
From the Gold Coast to the Golden State
We own this place, I put skills on display
I know the lay of the land, I move with no delay
Andale, put that on LA, right
Word to Sway, we from the valley of hyenas
High murder rate, nigga, in Cali, we the meanest
From the valley to Atlantic, nigga, better vanish when they see us
Yea, the shoes is lit, we ain't bragging 'bout our sneakers, mm
Doc J, I promise I'm very sick
Better stay on your toes like white polish on every chick
Rhyming since a kid, I've been high quality ever since
I'm from Long Beach, I put hydraulics on every whip
Welcome to Cali, me and my bros get our cypher on
Where we from, you might have to squabble up like the song
Gotta stay in survival mode
Welcome to the Sunshine State, Sun Light, you should feel right at home
Chorus (Sun Light):
Gold Coast to the West Coast
Riding on my own wave and it's so fresh though
See the breeze in the trees, in the home of Death Row
Same me but here I'm so close to my best, bro
Tip-toeing as I step through the waters
I'm on a quest and I'm testing the waters
Yes, there's a lot that I'm yet to accomplish
But trust in the process, just getting started, I'm on it
Verse 2 (Demetrius):
Like the Gold Rush back in ancient California
It's gold meets West Coast, we the Golden State warriors
You die by the 3-pointers, I mean the devil's pitchfork
Forking you, yo, I'm straight warning you
I'm in the city that's corrupt with police
So it's fuck the police, yea, no justice, no peace
Whether it's East or West, we in the guts of those beasts
Where everybody nuts, speaking of nuts, just hold these
Yea, that's why I grew up diabolical
I demolish you and your crew, the Shoes will sayonara you
You should try suicide before you decide to follow through with
Fucking with me, I'll leave you for dead like a deadbeat
Biological father do, make no mistake
I got the Midas Touch, that means speaking of the Golden State
I'll turn the mic into a golden state like if Jordan was traded
To the place where the Oakland A's plays back in the Frobe days
Chorus (Sun Light):
Gold Coast to the West Coast
Riding on my own wave and it's so fresh though
See the breeze in the trees, in the home of Death Row
Same me but here I'm so close to my best, bro
Tip-toeing as I step through the waters
I'm on a quest and I'm testing the waters
Yes, there's a lot that I'm yet to accomplish
But trust in the process, just getting started, I'm on it
Verse 3 (Kenny):
West Coast to the Gold Coast, we be on go
Show out when we show up, you a no-show
Go hard or go home, getting caught slippin' is a no-no
You better focus on your goals and post up, call it goalpost
I'm from where they speak well but still throw up hand signs
Do your research, we are the best you can find
Say I'm underground guess I'm a land mine
When I blow up, watch every wack man die
Yea, we stepping all on their necks
They better just show respect, we veterans on the West
So sleep on us, we gon' wake up whoever has overslept
We 'bout us, you can relax, we ain't focusing on the rest
I'm explosive because Pac told me bomb first
These Cali streets are bad but I guarantee I'm worse
When I'm irked, before I put my foot in my mouth
I put my foot in your mouth, just converse with my Converse, yea
Chorus (Sun Light):
Gold Coast to the West Coast
Riding on my own wave and it's so fresh though
See the breeze in the trees, in the home of Death Row
Same me but here I'm so close to my best, bro
Tip-toeing as I step through the waters
I'm on a quest and I'm testing the waters
Yes, there's a lot that I'm yet to accomplish
But trust in the process, just getting started, I'm on it
Verse 4 (Sun Light):
I could see the beach when the pilot was landing it
On the same rock but the air different
Looking at the tide, the horizon just vanishes
7000 miles from the family, I am ambitious as a writer
I'm still collecting my breath
I take it in, I know the water is as fresh as it gets
I flew this whole way to step beside the best of the best
That's why they call me Sun Light because I'm set in the West
Had to get up out Australia, nobody was down to ride
I thought I was out my mind but down the line was bound to find
A map to 'Merica, had to ready up and catch a flight
To Kenny, Demi-God and Docta J, I ain't 'bout to hide
I'm sick of sitting in the shadows, need to embrace it
Lyricism isn't shallow, deep as the basement
Wishing since a kid of travelling to this place, now
The mission is to figure out the reason I came from
Chorus (Sun Light):
The Gold Coast to the West Coast
Riding on my own wave and it's so fresh though
See the breeze in the trees, in the home of Death Row
Same me but here I'm so close to my best, bro
Tip-toeing as I step through the waters
I'm on a quest and I'm testing the waters
Yes, there's a lot that I'm yet to accomplish
But trust in the process, just getting started, now watch this
