Shadow DIO Gangsta's Paradise

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I take a look at my life, and realize it's not too dark, cause I've been passing it last, and so don't forget, even my mother thinks that my mind is just a line down across the band that didn't deserve it. We be treating like a punk, you know that's in the drill. You better watch how you're talking, and where you're going, or you and your homies might be lost in trouble. I've been here at the trip, but I gotta look at the coop. I see myself in the distant smoke, fool. I'm the kind of city little homies wanna be like. On my knees in the night, say our prayers in the streetlight. I've been spending most of my life with a gang, that's their style of life. The type of shit you're preaching, they got you preaching. I can't even do it right, I'm besieged by the strife. So I gotta be bad with the routine. Too much television, watch it, I be chasing dreams. I'm an educated fool with my A on my mind. Got my kid and my head in the green of mine. I'm a broke down bitch, just sit, sippin' bae. And my homies is dead, so gonna ride my angel. Fool, can't say anything, but your heart's beating way. I'm living life, doing better, you look at the same. I'm 23, cry the blood, I never see. 24, go play the printer, throwing out of love. Tell me, why are we so blind to see? Have no one we hurt, but you and me. I've been spending most of my life with a gang, that's their style of life. Flower in the money, money in the power. Beat it after me, hour after hour. Everybody's playing, but I forgot there's nothing going on in the kitchen. But I don't know what's kissing. They say I got the world, but nobody's here to teach me. If they can't understand it, how can they teach me? I guess they pray, I guess they grow, I guess they cry. That's why I build my life inside a short film. I've been spending most of my life with a gang, that's their style of life. Tell me, why are we so blind to see? Have no one we hurt, but you and me. I've been spending most of my life with a gang, that's their style of life.
