As I walk through th valley where I harvest my grains,

I take a look at my wife,

And realize she's very plain

Cause I've been plowing an' harvistin' so long

That even spiderman thinks that my mind has gone.

But I ain't never punched a man that did deserve it.

So please don't point and stare we're just technologiccly impared

There's no phone no lights no motorcars, livin' in a armish paridise

I'm old and I'm into disiplin, I've got bible in my hand and beard on my chin.

And f I finish my chores and you finish dine, then tonight we're gonna party like it's ninetenn ninty nine

So don't be vein, and don't be whiney, otherwise me and my homies will get medevil on you hiney.

We sell quilts at discoun stores, we don't fight we all play nise, living in a armish paridise

Fool, I'm the kinda g that little homie's wanna be like,

On my knees in the night

Saying prayers in the street light.

[Chorus]

We've been spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

We've been spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

We keep spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

We keep spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

Look at the situation, they got me facing,

I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the state.

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 ten in my hand and a gleam in my eye.

I'm a locked out gangsta, set tripping banger

And my homies are down so don't arouse my anger.

Fool, death ain't nothing but a heart beat away,

I'm living life do or die, what can I say?

I'm twenty-three now, will I ever 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?

We've been spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

We've been spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

We keep spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

We keep spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's 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

It'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 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, foo!

We've been spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

We've been spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

We keep spending most our lives

Living in a gangsta's paradise.

We keep spending most our lives

Living in a 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?
