Richard Cheese Gangta's Paradise Lyrics

As i walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life and realize theres nothing left
'cuz i been blastin and laughing so long that
even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
but i never crossed a man that didn't deserve it
me be treated like a punk
you know thats unheard of
you better watch out, you talking, or where you walking
or you and your homies might be lying to talk
I realy hate to trip, but i gotta lope
as they croke i see myself in the pistal smoke, fool
im the kind of G that little homies wanna be like
on my knees in the nite, saying prayers in the street light

Been spending most our lives livin in the gangsta's paradise (2x)
keep spending most our lives livin in the gangsta's paradise (2x)

Look at the situation they got me facin'
i can't live a normal life
i was raised by the street
so i gotta be down with the hood team
too much television watch has got me chasin dreams
i'm a educated fool with money on my mind
got my ten in my hand in the gleem of my eye
i'm a lope doubt gansta set tripping bangger
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 or what can i say
i'm twenty-three never will i live to see twenty-four
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 livin in the gangsta's paradise (2x)
keep spending most our lives livin in the gangsta's paradise (2x)

Power in the money, money in the power
minute after minute, hour after hour
everybody's running or have they take a look
what is going on in the kitchen
but i donno 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 run,
that's how i know my life is outa luck, fool

Been spending most our lives livin in the gangsta's paradise (2x)
keep spending most our lives livin in the gangsta's paradise (2x)

tell me why are we so blind to see
that the ones we hurt are you and me (2x)
