GANGSTA'S PARADISE   
COOLIO featuring L.V. 
 
	As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death 
	I take a look at my life and realize there's not much left 
	coz I've been blastin and laughin so long, that 
	even my mama 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're talking, and where you're walking 
	or you and your homies might be lined in chalk 
	I really hate to trip but i gotta, loc 
	As I Grow 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, saying prayers in the streetlight 
 
 
 	been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise 
	been spending most their 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 stripes  
	so I gotta be down with the hood team 
	too much television watching got me chasing dreams 
	I'm an educated fool with money on my mind 
	got my 10 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 nothing but a heartbeat away, 
	I'm living life, do or die, what can I say 
	I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24 
	the way things are going I don't know  
 
	Chorus: 
	 
	Tell me why are we, so blind to see 
	That the one's we hurt, are you and me 
	been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise 
	been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise 
	spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise 
	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 running, but half of them ain't looking 
	what's going on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's kickin' 
	they say I gotta learn, but nobody's here to teach me 
	if they can't undersstand 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 out of luck, fool 
 
 
	been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise 
	been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise 
	spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise 
	spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise 
	Tell me why are we, so blind to see 
	That the one's we hurt, are you and me 
	Tell me why are we, so blind to see 
	That the one's we hurt, are you and me 
	 
	(fade out)
