and realize just how much I live
Cause I've been blasting life
Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
But I ain't never crossed a man
You're being treated like a punk,
You better watch how you're talking
I really hate to trip, but I gotta look
I see myself in the pistol smoke
your homies wan na be like
sayin' prayers to the streetlight
Been spreadin' most our lives
Livin' in the gangsters' paradise
Been spreadin' most our lives
Livin' in the gangsters' paradise
Keep spreadin' most our lives
Livin' in the gangster's paradise
Keeps spreading most our lies
Livin' in the gangster's paradise
Minute after minute, hour after hour
What's going on in the kitchen
But I don't know what's coming
But no one's here to teach me
If they can't understand it
I guess they can, I guess they won't
I guess they run, my life is out of luck
We've been spreading monster lies,
living in the gangster's paradise
Keep spreadin' most our lives,
livin' in the gangster's paradise
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?
Been spreading monster lies,
Keep spreading monster lies,
He's spent most our lives
living in the gangsta's paradise
