Karaoké Gangsters Paradise Like a Storm

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

I take a look at my life and realize there's nothin' left

'Cos I've been blastin' and laughin' so long that everyone thinks my mind is gone

But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it

To be treated like a punk you know that's unheard of

You'd better watch how you're talkin' and where you're walkin'

'Cos this life will only leave you lined in chalk

Been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

I've been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

Forget the situation they got me facin'

I can't live a normal life

I was raised by the stripes

So I gotta be down with the hood team 'cos television watchin' got me chasin' dreams

Death ain't nothin' but a heartbeat away

I'm livin' life do or die what can I say

I'm here right now

Will I see tomorrow

The way things are goin'

I don't know

Tell me why are we so blind to see that the ones we hurt are you and me, tell me

Been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

I've been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

Been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

I've been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

Power and the money

Money and the power

Minute after minute

Hour after hour

Everybody's runnin' but half of them ain't lookin'

What'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 I'm fucked

That's how I know my life is out of luck

Tell me why

Been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

I've been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

Been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

I've been spendin' most of life livin' in a gangster's paradise

Why are we so blind to see that the ones we hurt are you and me
