Coolio - Mrs. jones lyrics

Paroles de la chanson Mrs. Jones : As I walk thru the valley of the shadow of d**h I take a look at my life and realize there's much left 'Cause I've been bra**in' and laughin' so long that Even my Mama thinks that my mind is gone But I never crossed a man that didn't deserve it Me be treated like a punk, you know that's unheard of You'd better watch how you talkin', and where you're walkin' Or you and your homies might be like a chap I really hate to check but I gotta look As they croak I see myself in the pistals smoke ... fool I'm the kind of cheater little homies wanna be like On my knees in the night, sayin' prayers in the street light Been spending most their lives livin' in the gangsta's paradise Been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise Keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise Keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise They got the situation, they got me facin' I can't live with no more right, I was raised by the street So I gotta be damned with the hood team Too much television watchin' got me chasin' dreams I'm a educated fool with money on my mind Got my 10 in my hand and a gleam in my eye I'm a loped out placeto certain trippin' banker And my homing is down so don't arouse my anger ... fool Dead bay nothin' but a heart beat away I'm livin' light, do or die, what can I say I'm 23 now but will I live to see 24 The way things is goin' I don't know Tell me why are we so blind to see That the ones we hurt are you and me Been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise Been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise Keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise Keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise The Power and the money, money and the power Minute after minute, hour after hour Everybody's money, but half of them ain't lookin' It's goin' on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cooking They say I've got to learn but nobody's there to teach me If they can't understand 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 for Been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise Been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise Keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise Keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise 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 ...
