VERSE

You want to tell me what this is all about?

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I take a look at my life and realize there's nothin' left.

'Cause I've been blastin' and laughin' so long that

even my momma thinks that my mind is gone.

But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it.

Me be treated like a punk, you know that's unheard of.

You better watch how you talkin' and where you 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

I'm the kinda

G the little homies wanna be like on my knees in the night

sayin' prayers in the

streetlight been spendin' most of our lives

Livin' in a gangsta's paradise

Keep spendin' most our lives

Livin' in a a gangsta's paradise

keep spendin' most our lives

Livin' in gangsta's paradise.

keep spendin' most our lives

Livin' in gangsta's paradise.

VERSE

Look at the 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 watchin', got me chasing dreams

I'm a educated fool with money on my mind

Got my ten in my hand and a gleam in my eye

I'm a loc'd out gangsta, set trippin' banger

And my homies is down so don't arouse my anger

Fool, death ain't nothin' but a heart beat away

I'm livin' life do or die, what can I say?

I'm 23, now but will I live to see 24

The way things is going I don't know

BRIDGE

Tell me

Why are we so blind to see

that the ones we hurt are

you and me?

been spinning most our lives,

Livin' in a gangsta's paradise.

keep spendin' most our lives,

Livin' in a gangsta's paradise.

VERSE

Power and the money, money and the power

Minute after minute, hour

after hour

Everybody's runnin', But half of them ain't lookin'

It's going on in the kitchen

But I don't know what's cookin'

They say I gotta learn but nobody's here to teach

me

If they can't understand it, how can they reach

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
