Lyrics
Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me?
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life and realize there's not shit left
'Cause I've been pressin' and laughin' 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 between the lines of fun, you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you talkin' and where you walkin'
Or you and your man might be lined in chalk
I really ain't the shit by the candlelight
As I go and see myself in the pistol smoke
I'm the kinda nigga that the homies wanna be like
On my knees in the night, say a prayer to the streetlight
I've been standin' most their life
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
I've been standin' most their life
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
I keep standin' most their life
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
I keep standin' most their life
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me?
Look at the situation I can be facin'
I can't live it no more right, I'm persuaded by the shit
So I gotta be damn hard to the team
To my television watchin' that me takes a dream
I'm a handsome king of bull with money on my mind
Yeah, my team in my hand and a dream in my heart
I'm a loc'd out dream, too sad to be bent
And my homies is down, so don't arouse my anger
All day I'm prayin', laughin' 'bout a half million
The way I'm livin' life, doin' hard, yeah, what can I say?
A good tree never withers, it just grows, and I don't know
Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me?
I've been standin' most their life
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
I've been standin' most their life
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
I keep standin' most their life
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
I keep standin' most their life
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me?
