I've got a love and hate relationship with la

Off the plane, paint my face in the car, park my heart at the valet

I watch the sun sink down over santa monica boulevard

When I'm lonely and I'm missin' home

But other times I feel like my blood is runnin' cali.

I've got some famous friends that I could call

But I don't know if I'm cool enough

And what's worse than spendin' time alone

Is one of them not pickin' up

It's hard to grow and time to go

But some days I wanna stay

I've got a love and hate relationship with la.

I wonder if I'll get invited to the party

Yeah and if I do, will I go?

If I go, will I know somebody?

I'm on my third glass of wine tryin' to find conversation

In a room with bigger names

But other days I'm lookin' out for real estate.

Confetti's fallin', friends are callin'

Saw me on the tv

But if I let down my hair in the ocean air

Will tennessee be mad at me?

Yeah, I know it ain't a one-way road

But sometimes it feels that way

I've got a love and hate relationship with la.

Yeah, ooh...

Yeah, ooh...

Sometimes it feels like it's all real but nothin' here is as it seems

I ask myself does it feed my soul or my anxiety?

Carpet's red, ego's fed, but it's myself that I have to face

I've got a love and hate relationship with la.

(Yeah, ooh)

I've got a love and hate relationship with la, la

(Yeah, ooh)

I've got a love and hate relationship with la, la

(Yeah, ooh)

I've got a love and hate relationship with la, la

(Yeah, ooh)

I've got a love and hate relationship with la, la.
