Lyrics by Alex Barry
[Chorus]
Ca-li-for-nia dream-in’
Don’t wake up don’t wake up
But I pray that I’m gon’ wake up
C’mon wake up
I’m wait-in’
[Verse 1]
Goin’ in hard so I can’t turn back
Never stop runnin’ ‘til my soles turn black
Pray I don’t stop and find my soul’s turned black
Y’all the ones that saved me, I hope y’all learn that
Never lie on the track ‘cause you can’t run sitting down
Look at how spitting now
All these lines I’ve written out
Everything is getting out of hand
Got the power, man
But my time’s wasted like an alcoholic hour hand
How did I become a man
I cannot imagine being anything other than
What I am
What I’ve found
Is that we are Irrevocably bound
Without you I can’t make no sound
Y’all lift me up and I put it down
Livin’ my life outside of bounds
Ain’t no need for strict perfection
You’re like my life’s course correction
Born in C.A., born to wreck $#1T
Born in C.A., born to break $#1T
Born in C.A., born to make $#1T
Born in C.A., born to fix $#1T
But my dreams are nothing without your affection 
All Boundaries are f**king conventions
[Chorus]
Ca-li-for-nia dream-in’
Don’t wake up don’t wake up
But I pray that I’m gon’ wake up
C’mon wake up
I’m wait-in’
[Verse 2]
I been too hard on my friends lately
‘Cause I believe in them when they don’t believe in me
Say I don’t need homies if that’s the way it’s meant to be
Keep trying to convince me that I’m naïve
So I fight back freely tryna feel this $#1T out
Didn’t know there would be beef ‘til killed that cow
The green leaf shook my belief
Got me feelin’ like I’m knee deep
Just wading
For you to come back
It’s simple to move on and hard to retract
So I’ll act as your atlas, keep the clouds out your head
Even if the sky falls, that don’t mean our bond is dead
Just got caught up in my head
Then I used my mouth instead
And before I even knew it couldn’t unsay what I had said
In an instant I saw what I was not seeing
An instinctual force connects all our beings
E Pluribus Unum, from many we are one thing
With you I am something, without you I’m nothing
[Chorus]
Ca-li-for-nia dream-in’
Don’t wake up don’t wake up
But I pray that I’m gon’ wake up
C’mon wake up
I’m wait-in’
[Verse 3]
And bless California, ‘cause you know I love that golden state
You know I ain’t golden boy, ‘cause you know they say nothin’ gold can stay
Wasted time tryna avoid mistakes, and I watched my chances float away
Current’s bringing them back around, so I guess I got to go today
This beat brings me to tears, much like my nostalgia
Stone cold silence and I wish I would’ve called ya’
Now I just hope that I haven’t f**ked it all up
Get on the beat just to try to make it all up
A.M.B.ition never fails, but I don’t know about me
I’m hopin’ in my head that you can’t live without me
I know I talk big and it’s easier to doubt me
But I’m hopin’ that the beat can beat some greatness out me
I’d like to thank y’all for seein’ something in me
And I’d like to thank y’all for livin’ life with me
But if drake is drizzy, lil twist is twizzy, and I’m A.M.B.ition, I guess I am busy
