A F#m
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
G# C#m
I take a look at my life and realize there's not much left
A F#m
Coz I've been blastin and laughin so long, that
G# C#m
Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
A F#m
But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it
G# C#m
Me be treated like a punk you know that's unheard of
A F#m
You better watch how you're talking, and where you're walking
G# C#m
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
A F#m
I really hate to trip but I gotta, loc
G# C#m
As I grow I see myself in the pistol smoke, fool
G# C#m
On my knees in the night, saying prayers in the streetlight
A F#m G# F#
Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m G# F#
Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m G# F#
Keep spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m G# F#
Keep spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m
They got the situation, they got me facin'
G# C#m
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the stripes
A F#m
So I gotta be down with the hood team
G# C#m
Too much television watching got me chasing dreams
A F#m
I'm an educated fool with money on my mind
G# C#m
Got my ten in my hand and a gleam in my eye
A F#m
I'm a loc'd out gangsta set trippin' banger
G# C#m
And my homies is down so don't arouse my anger, fool
A F#m
Death ain't nothing but a heartbeat away
G# C#m
I'm living life, do or die, what can I say
A F#m
I'm twenty-three now, but will I live to see twenty-four
G# C#m
The way things are going I don't know
A F#m G# C#m
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
A F#m G# C#m
That the one's we hurt, are you and me
A F#m G# F#
Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m G# F#
Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m G# F#
Keep spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m G# F#
Keep spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m
Power in the money, money in the power
G# C#m
Minute after minute, hour after hour
A F#m
Everybody's running, but half of them ain't looking
G# C#m
What's going on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's kickin'
A F#m
They say I gotta learn, but nobody's here to teach me
G# C#m
If they can't understand it, how can they reach me
A F#m
I guess they can't, I guess they won't
G# C#m
I guess they front, that's why I know my life is out of luck, fool
A F#m G# F#
Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise

Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m G# F#
Keep spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m G# F#
Keep spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
A F#m G# C#m
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
A F#m G# C#m
That the one's we hurt, are you and me
A F#m G# C#m
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
A F#m G# C#m
That the one's we hurt, are you and me
