| 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 blasting and laughing so long, | |
| That even my mama 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're talking and where you're walking | |
| 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 saying prayers in the streetlight | |
| Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Look at the situation they got me facin' | |
| I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the streets | |
| 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 10 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 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 ones we hurt are you and me | |
| Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Power and the money, money and 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 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 | |
| Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise | |
| 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 |
