GANGSTA‘S PARADISE

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life and realize theres not much left
Cause Ive been blastin and laughin so long, that
Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
But I aint never crossed a man that didnt deserve it
Me be treated like a punk, you know thats unheard of
You better watch how youre talkin, and where youre walkin
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
I really hate to trip but I gotta loc
As they croak, I see myself in the pistol smoke, fool
Im the kinda G the little homies wanna be like
On my knees in the night, sayin prayers in the streetlight
Been spendin most their lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Been spendin most their lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Keep spendin most our lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Keep spendin most our lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Look at the situation they got me facin
I cant live a normal life, I was raised by the street
So I gotta be down with the hood team
Too much television watchin got me chasin dreams
Im an educated fool with money on my mind
Got my ten in my hand and a gleam in my eye
Im a locd out gangsta set trippin banger
And my homies is down so dont arouse my anger, fool
Death aint nothin but a heartbeat away
Im livin life, do or die, what can I say
Im 23 now, but will I live to see 24?
The way things is going, I dont know
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
That the ones we hurt, are you and me?
Been spendin most their lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Been spendin most their lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Keep spendin most our lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Keep spendin most our lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Power and the money, money and the power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Everybodys runnin, but half of them aint lookin
Its goin on in the kitchen, but I dont know whats cookin
They say I gotta learn, but nobodys here to teach me
If they cant understand it, how can they reach me
I guess they cant, I guess they wont
I guess they front, thats why I know my life is out of luck, fool
Been spendin most their lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Been spendin most their lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Keep spendin most our lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Keep spendin most our lives, livin in the gangstas paradise
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
That the ones we hurt, are you and me?
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
That the ones we hurt, are you and me?
