Paradise lost минус

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I take a look at my life and realize there's nuthin' left Cause I've been blastin' and laughin' so long that Even my ma'ma 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 I really hate to trip, but I gotta loc'- As they grew 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 Sayin' prayers in the street light Been spending most our lives living in the Gangsta's Paradise Been spending most our 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 They got the situation, they got me facin' I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the strip So I gotta be down with the hood team Too much television watchin' got me chasin' dreams I'm an educated fool with money on my mind Got my ten in my hand and a gleam in my eye I'm a loc'ed out gangsta, set-trippin' banger And my homies is down, so don't arouse my anger, fool Death ain't nuthin' but a heart beat away I'm livin' life do-or-die-a, what can I say? I'm twenty-three now, but will I live to see twenty-fow'? The way things is goin' I don't know Tell me why are we, so blind to see That the ones we hurt, are you and me Been spending most our lives living in the Gangsta's Paradise Been spending most our 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 runnin', but half of them ain't lookin' What's goin' on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cookin' 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 outta luck, fool Been spending most our lives living in the Gangsta's Paradise Been spending most our 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 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
