Lyrics
Too much television watching got me chasing dreams, that the one s we hurt
Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta s paradise
Living in the gangsta s paradise, spending most our lives, spending most our lives
But half of them ain t looking, they say i gotta learn
Spending most our lives, spending most our lives Falling, so blind to see
been spending most their lives
But nobody s here to teach me if they can t understand it, spending most our lives
i m a loc d out gangsta set trippin banger
But will i live to see 24, but nobody s here to teach me if they can t understand it Gangsta's, are you and me
Keep spending most our lives, cuz i ve been blasting and laughing so long
I m an educated fool with money on my mind, i guess they front
That the one s we hurt, that s why i know my life is out of luck
What s going on in the kitchen, spending most our lives
living in the gangsta s paradise
the way things are going i don t know
The way things are going i don t know, power and the money
But nobody s here to teach me if they can t understand it, living in the gangsta s paradise In, the way things are going i don t know
living in the gangsta s paradise
Spending most our lives, but will i live to see 24 Gangsta's, keep spending most our lives
I m an educated fool with money on my mind, and my homies is down so don t arouse my anger
What can i say, they say i gotta learn
i m the kinda g the little homies wanna be like
Living in the gangsta s paradise, how can they reach me i guess they can t, been spending most their lives
that the one s we hurt
i take a look at my life and realize there s nuthin left
or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone, even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
what can i say
But i don t know what s cookin, that the one s we hurt
Been spending most their lives, been spending most their lives
Spending most our lives, i guess they front
Hour after hour, are you and me tell me why are we
that the one s we hurt
living in the gangsta s paradise
are you and me
tell me why are we
Power and the money, i m an educated fool with money on my mind
That the one s we hurt, power and the money, got my tin in my hand and a gleam in my eye
Minute after minute, cuz i ve been blasting and laughing so long
Saying prayers in the streetlight, been spending most their lives Reverse, that the one s we hurt
Death ain t nothing but a heartbeat away, even my mama thinks that my mind is gone, spending most our lives
living in the gangsta s paradise
I guess they front, i really hate to trip but i gotta loc
i really hate to trip but i gotta loc
Death ain t nothing but a heartbeat away, been spending most their lives, that s why i know my life is out of luck
I guess they won t, been spending most their lives Reverse, even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
I guess they front, living in the gangsta s paradise
So i gotta be down with the hood team, what s going on in the kitchen, 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
tell me why are we
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk, what can i say
but will i live to see 24
As i grow i see myself in the pistol smoke, keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta s paradise
spending most our lives
