Yeah… we back in the zone, nephew West Coast meetin’ the Heartland That’s right, Doggystyle and Petty style… Don’t back down, ya dig? Uh… yeah… smooth like that I came up from the beach to the boulevard, cruisin’ slow Got the sunset paint on the ‘64, let it roll Ain’t no hurry in the life of a player Smoke in the air, peace in the prayer Tom singin’ from the past, I’m blendin’ eras like wine Petty on the hook, Dogg on the rhyme West Coast soul with a Southern twist Two legends on a groove you can’t resist Don’t back down, no, I stay true (uh-huh) Even when the world try to break my cool (yeah) From the palm trees to the red dirt town OG Dogg, and I won’t back down Rollin’ through the city with the top peeled back Feelin’ free, Petty strummin’ through the track Life got weight, but I never lose pace Still smile when the sun hit my face I been chillin’ since cassette decks and blue rags Before these apps, before the hashtags Now I’m coastin’, postin’, toastin’ longevity He's still the same Dogg, just more integrity You see, homie… The world’ll test you, try to bend your crown But real ones? We stay solid and sound And Petty told me long ago You stand tall, never fold, never slow Don’t back down, no, I stay true Even when the storm try to block my view From the Long Beach blocks to that Gainesville sound OG Dogg, and I won’t back down Yeah… that’s real talk, nephew Legends never die, they just ride together Snoop D-O-double-G… and the homie Tom P Peace, love, and that California breeze
