Lyrics

[00:08.94] Shit, tired of getting shot at
[00:10.84] Tired of getting chased by the police and arrested
[00:13.49] Niggas need a spot where we can kick it
[00:15.68] A spot where we belong, that's just for us
[00:18.14] Niggas ain't gotta get all dressed up and be Hollywood
[00:20.48] You knah'mean?
[00:21.67] Where do niggas go when we die?
[00:23.47] Ain't no heaven for a thug nigga, that's why we go to Thug Mansion
[00:27.79] That's the only place where thugs get in free and you gotta be a G
[00:32.09] At Thug Mansion
[00:33.78] A place to spend my quiet nights, time to unwind
[00:36.80] So much pressure in this life of mine, I cry at times
[00:39.56] I once contemplated suicide and would of tried
[00:42.27] But when I held that 9, all I could see was my moma's eyes
[00:45.56] No one knows my struggle, they only see the trouble
[00:48.06] Not knowing it's hard to carry on when no one loves you
[00:51.10] Picture me inside the misery of poverty
[00:53.48] No man alive has ever witnessed struggles I survived
[00:56.45] Praying hard for 'Better Dayz', promise to hold on
[00:59.01] Me and my dogs ain't have a choice but to roll on
[01:01.84] We finally found a spot to kick it
[01:03.66] Where we can drink liquor and no one bickers over trick shit
[01:06.77] A spot where we can smoke in peace, and even though we G's
[01:09.64] We still visualize places, that we can roll in peace
[01:12.34] And in my mind's eye I see this place, the players go in fast
[01:15.00] I got a spot for us all, so we can ball, at 'Thugz Mansion'
[01:17.89] Every corner, every city
[01:20.30] There's a place where life's a little easy
[01:22.79] Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
[01:25.45] Every hour, cause it's all good
[01:28.10] Leave all the stress from the world outside
[01:30.98] Every wrong done will be alright
[01:34.14] Nothin but peace love
[01:36.54] And street passion, every ghetto needs a thug mansion
[01:39.69] Will I survive all the fights and the darkness?
[01:41.87] Trouble sparks, they tell me home is where the heart is, dear departed
[01:45.41] I shed tattooed tears and couldn't sleep good
[01:48.11] for multiple years, witness peers catch gunshots
[01:50.88] Nobody cares, seen the politicians ban us
[01:53.38] They'd rather see us locked in chains, please explain
[01:56.09] why they can't stand us, is there a way for me to change?
[01:58.63] Or am I just a victim of things I did to maintain?
[02:01.77] I need a place to rest my head
[02:03.52] with the little bit of homeboys that remains, cause all the rest dead
[02:07.33] Is there a spot for us to roll, if you find it
[02:09.72] I'll be right behind ya, show me and I'll go
[02:12.38] How can I be peaceful? I'm comin from the bottom
[02:14.97] Watch my daddy scream peace while the other man shot him
[02:17.96] I need a house that's full of love when I need to escape
[02:20.99] the deadly places slingin drugs, in thug's mansion
[02:23.34] Every corner, every city
[02:25.82] There's a place where life's a little easy
[02:28.27] Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
[02:30.88] Every hour, cause it's all good
[02:33.67] Leave all the stress from the world outside
[02:36.38] Every wrong done will be alright
[02:39.64] Nothin but peace love
[02:41.96] And street passion, every ghetto needs a thug mansion
[02:44.78] Dear Mama don't cry, your baby boy's doing good
[02:47.72] Tell the homies I'm in Heaven and they ain't got hoods
[02:50.48] Seen a show with Marvin Gaye last night, it had me shook
[02:53.28] Drinking peppermint Schnapps, with Jackie Wilson, and Sam Cooke
[02:56.33] Then some lady named Billie Holiday
[02:58.50] Sang sitting there kicking it with Malcolm, 'til the day came
[03:01.80] Little LaTasha sure grown
[03:03.48] Tell the lady in the liquor that she's forgiven, so come home
[03:06.90] Maybe in time you'll understand only God can save us
[03:10.06] When Miles Davis cutting loose with the band
[03:12.24] Just think of all the people that you knew in the past
[03:14.86] that passed on, they in heaven, found peace at last
[03:17.72] Picture a place that they exist, together
[03:20.62] There has to be a place better than this, in Heaven
[03:23.25] So right before I sleep, dear God, what I'm asking
[03:25.98] Remember this face, save me a place, in 'Thugz Mansion'
[03:28.73] Every corner, every city
[03:31.18] There's a place where life's a little easy
[03:33.65] Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
[03:36.35] Every hour, cause it's all good
[03:39.08] Leave all the stress from the world outside
[03:41.83] Every wrong done will be alright
[03:45.01] Nothin but peace love
[03:47.39] And street passion, every ghetto needs a thug mansion
[03:53.52]
