Did you think three months rent was all you had to save?
Did you think one good song was all that it would take?
Meet in line, get a number
Overnight, get discovered
Well, when that doesn't work out
You can't just blame LA
When things don't go your way
You can't just fold your cards
The second it gets hard
It's not the city's fault
Every time you're lost
You can flip it off but it's not gonna change
You can't just blame LA
Now look at you, telling everybody that you can
That it'd be you, if someone big would just give you a chance
You got so much potential
But no one here really gets 'ya
You can say it till you're blue in the face
But
You can't just blame LA
When things don't go your way
You can't just fold your cards
The second it gets hard
It's not the city's fault
Every time you're lost
You can flip it off but it's not gonna change
You can't just blame LA
Bridge
I got so jaded
Thinking I was owed a lucky break and
Something had to give
'Cause of where I live
But I can't just blame LA
When things don't go my way
I can't just fold my cards
The second it gets hard
It's not the city's fault
Every time I'm lost
Yeah, I flipped it off 'cause I thought it would change
You can't just blame LA
You can't just blame LA
I can't just blame LA
You can't just blame LA
