As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I take a look at my life and realise there's nothing left, Coz I've been blasting and laughing so long, that, Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone, But I ain't never cross the man that didn't deserve it, Me be treated like a punk you know that's unheard of, You better watch how you're talking, and where you're walking, Or you and your homies might be lying in chalk, I really hate to trip but i gotta loc, As they groove I see myself in the pistol smoke, fool, I'm the kinda G the little homies wanna be like, On my knees in the night, saying prayers in the streetlight,
They've been spending most their lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise, They've been spending most their lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise ,
The getto situation, they got me facing, I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the street, So I gotta be down with the hood team, Too much television watching got me chasing dreams, I'm an educated fool with money on my mind, Got my tin in my hand and a grim in my eye, I'm a low down gangsta set trippin' banger, And my homies is down so don't arouse my anger, fool, Death ain't nothing but a heartbeat away, I'm living life, do or die, what can I say, I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24, The way things are going I don't know,
Tell me why are we, so blind to see, That the one's we hurt, are you and me, They've been spending most their lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise, They've been spending most their lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise, We keep spending most our lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise, We keep spending most our lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise,
Power in the money, money in the power, Minute after minute, hour after hour, Everybody's running, but half of them ain't looking, What's going on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cooking, They say I gotta learn, but nobody's here to teach me, If they can't undersstand it, how can they teach me, I guess they can't, I guess they won't, I guess they front, that's why I know my life is out of luck, fool,
We keep spending most our lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise, They've been spending most their lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise, We keep spending most our lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise, We keep spending most our lives, Living in the gangsta's paradise,
Tell me why are we, so blind to see, That the one's we hurt, are you and me, Tell me why are we, so blind to see, That the one's we hurt, are you and me,Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
