Lyrics:
[Verse 1: Coolio]
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 better watch how you talkin' and where you 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 homies wanna be like
On my knees in the night, sayin' prayers in the street light
[Hook 1: LV]
Been 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
[Verse 2: Coolio]
Look at the situation they got me facin'
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 trippin' banger
And my homies are down, so don't arouse my anger
Fool, death ain't nothin' but a heart beat away
I'm livin' life do or die, what can I say?
I'm 23 now, will I live to see 24?
The way things is going I don't know
[Hook 2: LV]
Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me?
[Hook 1]
Been 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
[Verse 3: Coolio]
Power and the money, money and the power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Everybody's running, but half of them ain't lookin'
It's going 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, fool!
[Hook 1]
Been 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
[Hook 2]
Tell me 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?

Absolutely fact

I 100% agree
Wether you like it or not... they are spitting straight facts
I'm forever traumatized by the sonic trailer
This song and Jim are the only redemption of that abomination
You're ruining the music goddamnit.
Jokes aside. F for sonic's reputation.
超粒方 it was cool in the background tbh lol
It ruined the song for me.

This is the song that so many modern day rappers want to recreate in both lyrical sense and how much impact it had on modern music culture. 10/10 would recommend 👍

Rap now is crap. Maybe I'm just old school, but I can't stand the new crap rap
Yeah 1.4 billion views for a 90s song. Legendary song.

Dudeee

Creativity that people nowadays don’t know
May 2024, still present
no auto tune, no bs. just pure music ☕️
this is more impressive in that they don’t swear in this song. Something I just notice.
Thanks everyone for the 1.6k likes
Not in good musics
@NIKHIL NIK he didint. Its front not fuck
If you think this is impressive, you need to listen to "Steady Dippin" from Bangin' on Wax Bloods and Crips. Unfortunately, even though Bangin' on Wax is the most true gangster rap group ever started, they are not heavily recognized as mainstream like groups such as NWA. NWA and most other groups are nothing compared to Bangin' on Wax when it comes to actual gang life and what was happening during the war in the 1980s and 1990s. "Steady Dippin" is one of the best Crip/Loc tracks that has no profanity.
👍😍❤️
WHYPHY22
I normally _do_ find it rather impressive when they manage to do that...
This *_definitely_* one of those times.
