As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life and realise there's nothing left
Coz I've been blasting and laughing so long, that
Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
But I ain't never cross the 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 lying in talk


They've been spending most their lives
Living in the gangsta's paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in the gangsta's paradise
We keep spending most our lives
Living in the gangsta's paradise
We keep spending most our lives
Living in the gangsta's paradise


I really hate to trip but i gotta loc
As they groove 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


Ain't no gangsta livin' in paradise [x4]
Paradise [x8]
P-paradise

Power in the money, money in 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 gotta learn, but nobody's here to teach me
If they can't undersstand it, how can they teach 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

Paradise
Ain't no gangsta livin' in paradise [x4]
Paradise [x10]
