Gangsta's Paradise (From ''Dangerous Minds'')
Coolio feat. L.V.
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I take a look at my life and realize there's nothin' left Cause I've been blastin' and laughin' so long That even my momma 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 betta watch how ya talkin' and where ya walkin' Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk I really hate to trip but I gotta loc As they croak, I see myself in the pistol smoke Fool, I'm the kinda g that little homie's wanna be like On my knees in the night sayin' prayers in the street light
Keep spending most our lives Livin' in a gangsta's paradise Been spending most their lives Livin' in a gangsta's paradise We keep spending most our lives Livin' in a gangsta's paradise We keep spending most our lives Livin' 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 street So I gotta be down with the 'hood team Too much television watching, got me chasing dreams I'm a educated fool with money on my mind Got my ten in my hand and a gleam in my eye I'm a loc'd 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

Keep spending most our lives Livin' in a gangsta's paradise Been spending most their lives Livin' in a gangsta's paradise We keep spending most our lives Livin' in a gangsta's paradise We keep spending most our lives Livin' in a 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 It's goin' on in the kitchen, but I don't 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 front That's why I know my life is out of luck, foo!
Keep spending most our lives Livin' in a gangsta's paradise Been spending most their lives Livin' in a gangsta's paradise
Tell me why are we So blind to see That the ones we hurt Are you and me...
