Lyrics to "Gangsta's Paradise"
|
Death ain't nothing but a heartbeat away
|
I'm living life, do or die, what can I say
|
I'm twenty-three, never will I live to see twenty-four
|
The way things is going, I don't know
|
Tell me why are we so blind to see
|
That the ones we hurt are you and me
|
They been spending most their lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise
|
They been spending most their lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise
|
We've been spending most our lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise
|
We've been spending most our lives livin' 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 cooking
|
They say I've got to 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 out of luck, fool
|
They been spending most their lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise
|
They been spending most their lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise
|
We've been spending most our lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise
|
We've been spending most our lives livin' 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
|
