Oh oh

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

I take a look at my life

And realize there's nothing 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 a gangsta's paradise

Been spending most their lives living

In a gangsta's paradise

Been spending most our lives living

In the gangsta 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

It'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 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 a gangsta's paradise

Been spending most their lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise

Been spending most our lives

Living in the gangsta paradise

Been spending most our lives

Living in the gangsta's paradise

Tell me why are we so blind to see

That the ones we hurt are you and me

Tell me why are we so blind to see

That the ones we hurt are you and me
