Dangerous Minds Soundtrack Lyrics






Coolio - Gangstas Paradise

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life and realize there's nuttin' left
'Cuz I've been blastin' and laughin' so long, that
Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
But I ain't neva crossed a man that didn't deserve it
Me be treated like a punk you know that's unheard of
You betta watch how you're talkin', and where you're walkin'
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
I really hate to trip but I gotta, loc
As they group I see myself in the pistol smoke, fool
I'm the kinda G the little homies wanna be like
On my knees in the night, sayin' prayers in the streetlight

[Chorus:]

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


THEY GOT the situation, they got me facin'
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the state
So I gotta be down 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 loc'd out gangsta set trippin' banga
And my homies is down so don't arouse my anga, fool
Death ain't nothin' but a heartbeat 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 goin' I don't know

[Chorus:]

Tell me why are we, so blind to see
That the one's 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

Power and the money, money and the power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Everybody's runnin', but half of them ain't lookin'
What's goin' on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cookin'
they say I got ta 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

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

Big Mike - Havin Thangs

Hmm, heh, stay wiv me

[Chorus:]

Loud house and chains and swangin thangs (I gots ta have it)
Just another young nigga havin thangs made

Time plans change and change comes with time
Throughout these years I learned to get down for mine
Had to do some crime
With the attitude of not givin a f*ck
Born with no luck, refuse to stay stuck
I make the bucks
Did what I had to, I did what I could
My rise to the top was no surprise cos I knew dat I would
make it, oh, the chance I had to take it
Fake it, never
because that nigga was too clever
If there ever was a motherf*ckin die for his crime
it had to be me, the B-I-G Mike and he straight G
Come sun down, come sun up, gun up
for dem niggas who wanna run up
wishin my colly came up short, that nigga done what?
Fool, you think black nigga don't go for no losses
I had ta get rid of my runners so I recruited mo' horses
Down wit neighbourhood bouncers I made a connection in rows
Laid up with elbows in vogues
I just kick back and stack rows and hoes

[Chorus:]
Loud house and chains and swangin thangs (Stay wiv me)
Just another young nigga havin thangs made (I gots ta have it)
Loud house and chains and swangin thangs (All my stuff here like that)
Just another young nigga havin thangs made

Times are changin, I'm livin my life in and out the dope, black!
Loungin here and there somethin screamin in my ear
"Michael go back home!" but I ain't really sure, black
I gots ta get my shit together the right way, nigga I know that
Comin up short, swangin by the tail-in
Thinkin of a masterplan, this nigga's bailin
down the road and I promise not to look back
at what I once had, what I have now, would've left left when I was two,
black
Shook that, now I'm in my own realm
Controllin shit, kickin it, never knew life could be so damn well
I got mine, everything feelin lime
Time for a change and change comes with time

[Chorus:]
Loud house and chains and swangin thangs (They done)
Just another young nigga havin thangs made (Hmm!)
Loud house and chains and swangin thangs (Fool!)
Just another young nigga havin thangs made

Lock another nigga up, throw away the f*ckin key
That's the way they punish me, motherf*ck society
I can spend a century in a penetentiary
it won't make a difference G
cos ain't nobody missin me
Round and round and round we go, a diff'rent day, a diff'rent face
Damn I wish I could run away, I hate this motherf*ckin place
Too many goddamn rules that's why I quit school
Givin me a quickie test, I ain't no damn fool
Can't walk out my house because they always in my face
And if I step outta place, they wanna give me a case
Ain't no difference between society and a jail house
Everybody's locked up and wanna get the hell out
Just cos you ain't locked down you think you got it good
but you better think again cos the police are checkin niggas in the
neighbourhood
beatin our ass down
Cos society is just like the pen so get ready for the lock-down
Clock now while you can, man huh
cos it's all about havin thangs
An' I'ma get mine fool!
Time for a change and change changes with time

[Chorus:]
Loud house and chains and swangin thangs (Hmm)
Just another young nigga havin thangs made

Rappin 4-Tay - Problems

no I can't run, I can't hide from all this pressure,
if I sell out that means I'm copping to a lesser charge,
and whenever there's a will baby, there's a way,
each one teach one, I always say,
the murder rate is rising, soceity ain't scaring me,
life is like a puzzle, ain't no telling when they'll bury be,
they wanna tell me how to live,
but I got dues to pay, now how much money you gon' give,
for my PG and me bill, 'cause it's a week late,
leave the hustle alone, fool, don't procastanate,
cause I'm a get mine, and that's the way I was taught,
fool, now what you thought,
that I was born and raised in a big house,
while you would sleep up in the bed, I slept on the couch,
I tried to study, but was often interrupted,
because the nieghborhood I'm from is so corrupted,
rats and roaches creeping through the cracks in my walls,
while my folks down the street breaking plain and ball,
trying to count as much as they can count is like hell,
is kind of hard being raised off up in the cell,
get on your own, and get you some bizness, black,
stay sucker-free, and by all means, watch your back,
you ain't gotta listen, but take it from your boy 4-Tay,
fool, you think you pormised another day?,

each peice of life is like a puzzle, can you slove 'em,
stress 'll drive you crazy tryin to deal with these problems,
problems, problems, how you gon' solve 'em,
man, I'm going crazy trying to deal with these problems,

Each and every day on these streets, game is getting sicker,
thicker than a King-size snicker,
and I know who's got the plug, don't need no witness,
cause your bizness ain't everybody elses bizness,
snitchers, and gothams, and gangstas, they're so keniving,
in 1995, only the strong will survive and,
everytime I open up somethin', somebody wants some,
so I could be broke, all on my lonesome,
too many critics, too many debators,
and when they don't hire us, that makes me think they hate us,
but that's just anothre problem pushing through my brain,
that wouldn't change no matter how much I complained,
how would you care if I was living on welfare,
you act like you gon' move me and my family elsewhere,
allow me to make this conversation more concrete,
too many formalitys, and I find that so obsolete,
but I'm a keep striving, 'cause it couldn't get no worse,
ain't robbing no banks or snatching nobody's purse,
I finally made me a profit, so now I can really chill,
check my mailbox, Oh, too soon , there's my phone bill
trying to look up for number 1, and that's my mother,
if it ain't one thing fly, it's another,

each peice of life is like a puzzle, can you solve 'em,
stress 'll drive you crazy when your dealing with these problems,
problems, problems, how you gon' solve 'em,
man I'm going crazy tryin to deal with these problems,

each peice of life is like a puzzle, can you solve 'em,
stress 'll drive you crazy trying to deal with these problems,
problems, problems, how you gon' solve 'em,
man I'm going crazy trying to deal with these problems,
problems, problems, how you gon' solve 'em,
I'm a handle mine,
problems, problems, how you gon' solve 'em,
take 'em one at a time

Mr. Dalvin - True O.G.

(feat. Static (of The Bassment))

[Intro:]
Yeah, we gonna bust it a little something like this. Me and my nigga Mr.
Dalvin. First let me get some weed before I wreck it. Just lay back.

[Static:]
Where the reefer at, where the reefer at?
Run me in the dime, not trying to bust my head
Cause I stays on top of mine (top on mine)
Cause I been ballin' since the days of back when
Niggas wasn't be thinkin' about drink no juice and gin (alright brother)
Niggas be drinkin' the Thunderbird or Nighttrain
Lookin' for the right frame, breakin' like a dice game
Stackin' skrilla so I'm sippin' Hennessy
Lickin' shot after shot at my enemies
Boom boom recognize all persuers been in the game for years
Cause I'm a sho connoisseur
Consume the blocks, drop off my rocks, the quicker a nigga play me
The quicker a nigga who drops, pops of the glocks
Not trippin' facial experessions, be shittin'
Niggas don't be hearin' all that in every city
Take a nigga out if you gotta on the day to day
Then parlay, ate a gator, parlay, to God nigga

[Hook:]
It ain't hare to see, when niggas try to be like me
A true O.G., y'all y'all, gotta take you underground
Parlay all day with the niggas from the Bassment sound [X2]

[Mr. Dalvin:]
Watch out for I blow, swing low
Forget it, y'all don't hear me though, I'm hittin' switches
Hoppin' like a 64, and I, thought you knew, what I can do
Able to leap tall buildind and run up to your crew (oooooh)
The underground stylistical, got more flavors than mystics
So lay back and watch this nigga kick it
Wicked without thinkin' of funky
But I ain't stinkin', I know I got you open cause I got y'all niggas
blinkin'
Check it out, you watch me devastate this track
I make stacks and stacks and leave niggas on they backs
Cause I...be a sharp shooter, intruder
Rugged and rough, poppin' off just like a lueger
Now how many niggas, wanna get down, while I say
With Jodeci or the Bassment sound, around
I don't wanna see, handin', my crew is deep and you know that we be bangin'
So give me a bottle of Boons so watch me load my gat
Start a war like Tom Barringer in Platoon
So, don't mess with this flow, Mr. Dalvin is gone like 19 nigga fiz-o, oh

[Hook]

Come on get down (repeated after every line)
This goin' out to all the players
Shoot outs to the ballers
Much love to the hustlers (all around the world)
Mo power to the pimps
Watch the Bassment make it mo better (like that)
Niggas just down for whatever, whatever
Come on, like that
Shhhh, let it go, let it flow

Sista - Its Alright

f/ Craig Mack



[Chorus]

It's alright

As you may have heard

To smoke the fat one and let the thunder burn

It's okay, to play this loud

Mr DJ, don't mean to sweat you down



[Missy]

I stuck my fingers in the socket, I blew up like a rocket

in the market, now I cannot stop it

Oh mami, oh papi, why they envy me?

Messin up my creativity with all this negativity

so now I'm drinkin gin-and-seng

Anything to mess with my concentration with hallucinations

of invasion, from waiting on the nation

to get with my style

Cos I'm about to transmit into some funky ish

Can you get with this?

Zay, villaveu, yes, ugh!

They ask me if I'm nasty, they ask me, they bet me too

Like osh-kosh-bigosh, osh cock suck their cocks

Osh miss Miss iss oh shit

I gets mad styles, get it get it

I'm wit it wit it if you wit it, oh shit then let's split it

into a 20 sack, and I'ma be back

wit my boy Craig Mack like that, ugh!



Chorus



[Craig Mack]

Don't sweat me down

This jam needs a frontin MC, leave MC's shakin in the ground

Here come the bumpenin sound

Worth more than the coke that they sellin by the pound

I walk the street like Shaft

Hop to kick a paragraph, floatin on the funk like a life raft

Down with Sista, it's the MC brezzle twister

Mackalicious boy I'll pop you like a blister

Craig Mack's a Jedi Knight with The Force of course

I can run MC's thru my teeth like dental floss

So back up and don't sweat me down

Boo docks on locks, fat boys nabbed the home town

And you can get the balls like that

Hittin wicked like the funkalicious rhymes that's phat, uhh

And we can get back in forth off the back



Chorus



[Missy]

Oh if, I could bring sucker-suckertash

When I farts I poops cash from my ass

Cos If You Think You're Lonely Now

like Bobby Womack in gangsta format, I dunk shit like Shaq

I'm not greedy, I feeds the needy, I smokes a beady

I feel, the need to stroke the weedy

Oh big daddy, is you ready *slurp*

to slurp me in your mouth like spaghetti?

Hi Ho Silver, ya killer, my drug dealer

fo' reala, I drinks some Miller, ugh

Look up in the sky ARGH ARGH!!

It's a birdie, yes I'm worthy for certy

Black eyed peas, all in my butt like fleas

Oh we's smell panties

All in my crack

My amplifier's on the maxi light, Kotter Welcome Back

Rappin 4-Tay - A Message For Your Mind

Ain't nobody gettin no younger, man, we're just gettin older and
We need to get bolder than bold as we've ever been
Our reference as Africans, where our folks sittin
they cryin out laughin
The game is all you know so you in it to win it, right?
Trippin, a gang o' bullets, decided to find a fight
Life is scattered in directions, brotherly connections
Misguided youth driftin in the wrong direction
I hope for the best and say a prayer and keep steppin
Too many kids they own an automatic weapon
A lot of them wanna go home instead of hangin out
It's kinda hard when you're parents' straight smoked out
For you fisters, stay prepared for the up and coming
Get all you can while you can and result to something
You be surprised with this talent that we hold
But we forget and go sick outta control
A lotta homies to die, they left a true lesson
Or fill your soul that I love, this another blessing
You want funk, it used to be bing-bing
To the dome, but nah now it's really on
Go out back, what? To just to be reputable?
Hope you don't lose your life, fools are goin federal
I'm goin forward, showin em up like a pimp
And gettin the truck, you can sell each other profit
Don't let police try to grab you by your shirt collar
You witta black man, who understands black power
Pipin hot, are you the bad brother?
I love to roll rhymes, see my homeboys stickin together
Stay focused cos there's too many blind
Blind to the purpose of life and that's a message for your mind

[Chorus:]

Tried the dope about a thousand times
So here's a message for your mind
[x4]

I once knew a man who couldn't read
He said "It ain't no thang cause
I graduated twice with the game I possess"
Bullet-proof vest to the chest
But when his kids needed help to prepare for a test
It was stress cos Pops ain't acheiving in academics
It's true indeed, his problem is an epidemic
Who wanna work five long hard days through it?
And get tax, I guess somebody gotta do it
So take coke, rock it up brick-solid
Ain't nobody thinkin about a checks up ??? wallet
Kids are growin up with the train of thought
The motion the parents talk, the trip on the *?dopest bar?*
Now look at the man you f*ck, he was as black as you
Sweated ya money, it wasn't funny so you did what'cha had to do
How many brothers will be taken out by another brother?
Give a talk show a whole lot to talk about
It's me and my microphone, it's you and your 9
And that's fine, well here's a message for your mind

[Chorus]

The next verse is out for the chicks
Ho's are to be chosen, nightclub or taking flicks?
The homey might be roughy with a tandy-out Mercedes
Called a girl a 'female dog', well she's a lady
Run into the wrong one, a strong one, a smart man coast her
She pushed you to the left and turned her off when you approached her
You tripped and dissed her, you bashed the sister
And even when you drove off, you couldn't resist her
Solution:Better go, homey, leave her P
Cos you know like I know there's plenty fish in the sea
There's more women in this world than men, for fact, I'm right
Just because she's superfine that doesn't mean that's your type
Briefcase, white shirt, tie and a sportscoat
A hella gold, ???, servin ya friend's dough
Friends are friends then or friends come good friends
A helpin hand in understandin, wants to invite you in
Man's your best friend, boyfriend and girlfriend
It's like a soap opera in this world that we're living in
Misconception from a blink or a wink
He want to get married and all she want is a drink
But it really don't help when you supposed to be faithful
He bought you a boat load and paid for ya cases
Kept it comin, the brother went wrong for expecting some
Got knocked out by ya spouse, now ya started some
It seems strange but these fools are taking people out
For the woman that they love and truly care about
It's understandable, but will hurts when she's givin in
Now was it reaaly worth a life sentence in the pen?
No get-back, nothin but a jail song
A homey told ya that you're woman had it goin on
Now ya stuck and she's on the prowl gettin wined and dined
Damn, now that's a message for your mind

[Chorus]

[Outro]

His pocket's fat and his dove is too. He huh

And, they ain't leavin til six in the mornin (six in the mornin)
So what you wanna do, sheeeit

Who listens, to the words that I speak
As I take me a drink to the middle of the street
And get to mackin to this bitch named Sadie (Sadie?)
She used to be the homeboy's lady (Oh, that bitch)
Eighty degrees, when I tell that bitch please
Raise up off these N-U-T's, cause you gets none of these
At ease, as I mob with the Dogg Pound, feel the breeze
Beeeitch, I'm just

Chorus

Verse Three:

Later on that day
My homey Dr. Dre came through with a gang of Tanqueray
And a fat ass J, of some bubonic chronic that made me choke
Shit, this ain't no joke
I had to back up off of it and sit my cup down
Tanqueray and chronic, yeah I'm f*cked up now
But it ain't no stoppin, I'm still poppin
Dre got some bitches from the city of Compton
To serve me, not with a cherry on top
Cause when I bust my nut, I'm raisin up off the cot
Don't get upset girl, that's just how it goes
I don't love you hoes, I'm out the do'
And I'll be

Chorus

Rollin down the street, smokin indo, sippin on gin and juice (beeotch!!)
Laid back [with my mind on my money and my money on my mind]
Rollin down the street, smokin indo, sippin on gin and juice (beeotch!!)
Laid back [with my mind on my money and my money on my mind]

Wendy - This Is The Life

[ Featuring Lisa ]

This is the life
Everyone has to be somewhere
I am here
Testing a dream
The pressure of dreams is the killer
Of dreams
And it only gets harder

This is the life
This is the life
This is my life

Time is the monster
All of us fight the same monster
To win
I scream when I breathe
Fearing that worry will trigger
All my fears

And it only gets harder
(How did I get so serious?)
This is the life
This is the life
This is the life
This is my life

Everyone has to do something
I am here
Doing what I do best

But this is the life
This is the life
This is the life
