As I walk the valley of the shadow of death I take a look at my and realize there's much left 'Cause I've brassin' and laughin' so long that Even my thinks that my mind is gone But I crossed a man that didn't deserve it Me be like a punk, you know that's unheard of better watch how you talkin', and where you're walkin' Or you and your homies might be a chap I really hate to but I gotta look As they croak I see myself in the pistals ... fool I'm the kind of cheater little homies wanna be On my knees in the night, sayin' prayers in the street
Been spending most their lives livin' in the gangsta's Been most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise Keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's Keep spending most our living in the gangsta's paradise
got the situation, they got me facin' I can't live with no more right, I was by the street So I gotta be with the hood team Too television watchin' got me chasin' dreams I'm a educated with money on my mind Got my 10 in my and a gleam in my eye I'm a loped out certain trippin' banker And my is down so don't arouse my anger ... fool Dead bay nothin' but a heart away I'm light, do or die, what can I say I'm 23 now but will I to see 24 The way things is I don't know
me why are we so blind to see That the we hurt are you and me
Been spending most lives living in the gangsta's paradise Been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's Keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise
The Power and the money, money and the Minute after minute, hour after Everybody's money, but half of them ain't goin' on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cooking They say I've got to learn but nobody's to teach me If they can't understand how can reach me I guess they I they won't I they front That's why I know my is out of luck for
Been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's Been spending most their lives living in the paradise Keep most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise Keep most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise
me why are we so blind to see That the we hurt are you and me me why are we so blind to see That the ones we are you and me ...
