Tell me
ย
Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothing and everything
All at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it
ย
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
ย
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 blastin' and laughin' 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, you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you talkin' and where you walkin'
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
ย
Been spendin' most our lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Been spendin' most our lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise (Welcome to Paradise)
Keep spendin' most our lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise (Welcome to Paradise)
Keep spendin' most our lives
livin' in the gangsta's paradise (Am I just paranoid? Uh, yuh, yuh, ya)
ย
I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams (To analyze all my dreams)
She says it's lack of sex
That's bringing me down (Yeah, no sex with me, oh)
I went to a whore
He said "My life's a bore" (She said that my life's a bore)
So quit my whining cause
It's bringing her down
ย
I'm a educated fool with money on my mind
MAC-11 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 nothin' but a heart beat away
I'm livin' life do or die, what can I say?
I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24?
The way things is goin' I don't know
Tell me!
ย
Sometimes I give myself the creeps (Sometimes I give myself the creeps)
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me (Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me)
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up (I think I'm cracking up)
'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)
ย
Tell me why are we (Am I just stoned?)
so blind to see
that the ones we hurt
are you and me
ย
Tell me why are we (It's hard to say that I'd rather stay)
so blind to see (awake when I'm asleep)
ย
'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)
I'd like to make myself believe (Sometimes I give myself the creeps)
That planet Earth turns slowly (Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me)
It's hard to say that I'd rather (It all keeps adding up)
stay awake when I'm asleep (I think I'm cracking up)
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
ย
Ooh Yeah!
ย
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
ย
I'd like to make myself believe (Power and the money, money and the power)
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
ย
Been spendin' most our lives (When I fall asleep)
livin' in the gangsta's paradise (So I better hold on)
Power and the money, money and the power
ย
'Cause everything is never as it seems
ย
Keep spendin' most our lives (When I fall asleep)
livin' in the gangsta's paradise (So I better hold on)
Minute after minute, hour after hour
ย
to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
