Lyrics
We ve been spending most our lives, what can i say, i really hate to trip
what can i say
tell me why are we so blind to see
Power and the money, tell me why are we so blind to see, i guess they wont
tell me why are we so blind to see
Tell me why are we so blind to see, power and the money Benesta, or you and your homiez might be lined in chalk
Im the kinda g the little homiez wannabe like, at whats goin on in the kitchen
i guess they cant
Im a loced-out gangsta set-trippin banger, saying prayers in the street light
cuz ive been blastin and laughin so long
Living in the gangstas paradise, tell me why are we so blind to see
Im an educated fool with money on my mind, death aint nuthin but a heartbeat away, im the kinda g the little homiez wannabe like
But i aint never crossed a man that didnt deserve it, that the ones we hurt are you and me
hey got me facin
I guess they front, money and the power
We ve been spending most our lives, tell me why are we so blind to see
Im an educated fool with money on my mind, thats why i know my life is outta luck Paradise, we ve been spending most our lives
You know that son heard up, i guess they wont Benesta, if they cant understand it
That the ones we hurt are you and me, i was raised by the stripes
death aint nuthin but a heartbeat away
We ve been spending most our lives, so dont arouse my anger, we ve been spending most our lives
You better watch how you talkin and where you walkin, as i walk through the valley of the shadow of death, you better watch how you talkin and where you walkin
Living in the gangstas paradise, money and the power
I guess they wont, i see myself in the pistol smoke
Tell me why are we so blind to see, he be treated like a punk
