Music video by 2Pac performing To Live And Die In L.A. HD 4K Remastered Lyrics: To live and die in LA, where everyday we try to fatten our pockets Us sistas hustle for the cash so it's hard to knock it Everybody got they own thang, currency chasin' Worldwide through the hard times, worrying faces Shed tears as we bury brothas close to heart Who was a friend is now a ghost in the dark, Cold hearted bout it brotha got smoked by a fiend Trying to floss on him, blind to a broken man's dream, A hard lesson, court cases keep me guessin', Plea bargain, ain't an option now, so I'm stressin' Cost me more to be free than a life in the pen Making money off of cuss words, writing again Learn how to think ahead, so I fight with my pen Late night down Sunset liking the scene What's the worst they could do to a sista Got me lost in hell To live and die in LA on bail (My angel sing) To live and die in L.A.

It's the place to be (Let my angel sing) You've got to be there to know it What everybody wanna see To live and die in L.A. It's the place to be You've got to be there to k
