Ashriver — Gangsta's Paradise (Country)

We've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
We've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
We've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
You've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
We've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of debt,
I take a look at my life and realize there's nothing left.
Because I've been blasting and laughing so long that even my mama thinks that my mind is gone.
I really hate to trip,
But I gotta loc as they pop me myself in the pistol smoke.
Fool, I'm the kind of G that little homies want to be like,
On my knees in the night,
Saying prayers in the streetlights.
Tell me,
Why are we so blind to see that the ones we hurt are you and me?
Power and the money, money and the power,
Minute after minute, hour after hour.
Everybody's crying, but half of them are looking,
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 don't.
Just why I know my life is out of luck.
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 the gangster's paradise.
We've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
We've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
You've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
We've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
We've been spending most our lives living in the gangster's paradise.
