Gangsta's paradise (Coolio)

Ενα τραγούδι που το γουστάρω πολύ..
μήν ρωτήσετε γιατί..
έτσι..




As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death.
I take a look of my life, and realise there's noting left.
'Cuz I've been brassin' and laughing so long that.
Even my mama 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 now that's unheard of.
You'd better watch how you're talking and were you walking .
Or you and your homie mith be lined in chalk.
I really hate to trip but I gotta lope.
As they croak I see myself in the pistol smoke, FOOL.
I'm the kind of g that little homies wanna be.
Like on my knees in the night sayin prayers in the street light.

Bin spending most their lifes livin in a Gangster's Paradise.
Bin spending most their lifes livin in a Gangster's Paradise.
Keep spending most our lifes livin in a Gangster's Paradise.
Keep spending most our lifes livin in a Gangster's Paradise.

The Ghetto situation they got me facein'.
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the street. (or strip)
So I gotta be down wit the hood team.
Too much television watching got me chasing dreams.
I'm a educated fool wit money on my mind.
Got my ten in my hand and the glim in my eye.
I'm a loped out gangster set trippin banger.
And my homies is down so don't arouse my anger, FOOL.
Death ain't notin but a heartbeat away.
I'm livin life do or die, what can I say.
I'm 23 now but will I live to see 24.
The way things is going I don't know.

Tell me why are we so blind to see.
That the one's we hurt are you and me.

(chorus)

Power and the money, money and the power.
Minute after minute, hour after hour.
Everybody's running but half of them ain't looking.
What's going on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cooking.
They say I got to learn, but nobody's here 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, FOOL.

ΚΑΛΗΜΕΡΑ!!!
