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 laughing and blasting 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? Yeah, 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
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 facing
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the streets
So I gotta be down with the hood team
Too many television watching got me chasing dreams
I'm an educated fool with money on my mind
I got a 10 in my hand and a gleam in my eye
I'm a loc'd--out gangsta, set-tripping banger
And my homies are down, don't arouse my anger
And 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
So tell me why are we so fucking blind to see
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 cooking
Say I gotta learn, but nobody's here to teach me
If they can't understand, how can they reach me?
I guess they can't, I guess they won't, I guess they front
That's why my life is out of luck, yeah
Ha-ha, fuck everyone

Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
