[Buildup]
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is

[Verse]
First place flow, never comin' in second
Y'all already know on the record I wreck it
Future of this rap shit, tryin' to protect it
Makin' sure these wack ass kids get neglected
Workin' all night, insomniac
Fake ass rappers are insane, react
Big name features high, I don't even need that
Y'all can't match the mentality of Abstract
Bitch, I'm just too versatile
Throw me any beat you got, I bust the flow
Every line is crackers, I'm 'bout to blow
If you didn't know then, son, now you know
Rollin' on snitches on stoners
Chillin' at the party, bitches and Coronas
[?]
Show 'em now like I didn't know ya
Yeah, 'cause that's how we do
Come 1k and rise and deepen the crew
Oh, you criticizin', who are you?
I ain't got time for that, got shit to do
'Cause I got lyrical swag like none other
Who are you to judge a man's work by its color?
Listen to the music, don't judge by the cover
See with your ears, I keep it Stevie Wonder
Shit's too dank, covers over Coldplay
[?] too long, too many people to thank
No question, I'm headin' that direction
All be aware, never leave the throne unprotected
Never leave the throne unprotected
Never leave the throne unprotected
Never leave the throne unprotected
Never leave the throne unprotected

[Chorus]
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is
We from Los Angeles
This is where the party is

[Drop]
This is where the party is

Growing up in New Jersey, Luke Terkovich, otherwise known as Abstract, was involved with music at an early age. Learning how to play piano, electric guitar, and the drums were Luke’s first involvement with music — and he did it all before 6th grade. With a move across country from New Jersey to Jackson, Wyoming, the distance between learning and playing new instruments got larger. It wasn’t until several years later that Luke began to mess around with freestyling during his high school years spent at Jackson Hole High. Evolving his newly found musical expression into Raised in Jackson, WY, Abstract is known for his immense musical versatility and affinity for providing uplifting music for a turbulent world. With a knack for storytelling, he provides introspective motivation to all who take the time to dive into his work. Notably known for his remix of Ruth Bs Lost Boy “Neverland” which has garnered hundreds of millions of plays on YouTube, his work with Drumma Battalion and Roze, and his 2016 album Something to Write Home About. He heads a collective known as “A Team Worldwide” 5 musicians from 4 different countries. Producers Drumma Battalion of Norway, Blulake of Sweden, Cryo Music of Scotland, and Abstract. Coming off his first overseas tour with YONAS, the ATWW collective is gearing up to drop Abstracts new album/experience late summer 2018.writing detailed lyrics, he began to find that he could vent the stresses of his everyday life through creating music. Slowly progressing through the years of his new town where he calls home; balancing school, life, and music developed Luke to become Abstract.

Trying to find his sound was a young teenager who just looked to get something written down and then translated into music, and eventually rap. Still in his caterpillar stage of metamorphosis was a young Abstract who released his first ever collection of songs, properly named The Dream.

In 2012, through YouTube, Abstract met Craig McAllister, a producer from Glasgow, Scotland. During that period, Abstract was in the midst of working on On My Own Time and was the first time Craig showed up with Abstract. Afterwards, the duo started to mesh extremely well and produced the five projects, Under Lights & Microscopes, A Life To Live By, Dreaming With Eyes Open, The Science Of Feeling Tall, and We Are The Artist.
