2Pac Feat. Anthony Hamilton - Thugz Mansion lyrics
rate meShit, tired of gettin' shot at<br />
Tired of gettin' chased by the police and arrested<br />
Niggas need a spot where we can kick it<br />
A spot where we belong, that's just for us<br />
<br />
Niggas ain't gotta get all dressed up and be Hollywood<br />
You know what I mean? Where do niggas go when we die?<br />
Ain't no Heaven for a thug nigga, that's why we go to Thug Mansion<br />
That's the only place where thugs get in free<br />
And you gotta be a G at Thug Mansion<br />
<br />
A place to spend my quiet nights, time to unwind<br />
So much pressure in this life of mine, I cry at times<br />
I once contemplated suicide and would've tried<br />
But when I held that 9, all I could see was my mommas eyes<br />
<br />
No one knows my struggle, they only see the trouble<br />
Not knowin' it's hard to carry on when no one loves you<br />
Picture me inside the misery of poverty<br />
No man alive has ever witnessed struggles I survived<br />
<br />
Prayin' hard for better days, promise to hold on<br />
Me and my dawgs ain't have a choice but to roll on<br />
We found a family spot to kick it<br />
Where we can drink liquor and no one bickers over trick shit<br />
<br />
A spot where we can smoke in peace and even though we G's<br />
We still visualize places, that we can roll in peace<br />
And in my mind's eye I see this place, the players go in fast<br />
I got a spot for us all, so we can ball at Thugz Mansion<br />
<br />
Ain't no place I'd rather be, children, dead homies and family<br />
Sky high, iced out paradise in the sky<br />
Ain't no place I'd rather be, only place that's right for me<br />
Chromed out mansion in paradise in the sky<br />
<br />
Will I survive all the fights and the darkness?<br />
Trouble sparks, they tell me home is where the heart is, dear departed<br />
I shed tattooed tears and couldn't sleep good<br />
For multiple years, witness peers catch gunshots<br />
<br />
Nobody cares, seen the politicians ban us<br />
They'd rather see us locked in chains, please explain<br />
Why they can't stand us, is there a way for me to change<br />
Or am I just a victim of things I did to maintain?<br />
<br />
I need a place to rest my head with the little<br />
Bit of homeboys that remains 'cause all the rest dead<br />
Is there a spot for us to roll? If you find it<br />
I'll be right behind ya, show me and I'll go<br />
<br />
How can I be peaceful? I'm comin' from the bottom<br />
Watch my daddy scream peace while the other man shot him<br />
I need a house that's full of love when I need to escape<br />
The deadly places slingin' drugs in Thugz Mansion<br />
<br />
Ain't no place I'd rather be, children, dead homies and family<br />
Sky high, iced out paradise in the sky<br />
Ain't no place I'd rather be, only place that's right for me<br />
Chromed out mansion in paradise in the sky<br />
<br />
Dear momma don't cry, your baby boy's doin' good<br />
Tell the homies I'm in Heaven and they ain't got hoods<br />
Seen a show with Marvin Gaye last night, it had me shook<br />
Drippin' peppermint Schnapps, with Jackie Wilson and Sam Cooke<br />
<br />
Then some lady named Billie Holiday<br />
Sang 'Sittin' there kickin' it' with Malcolm 'til the day came<br />
Little Latasha sho' grown<br />
Tell the lady in the liquor store that she's forgiven, so come home<br />
<br />
Maybe in time you'll understand only God can save us<br />
When Miles Davis cuttin' lose with the band<br />
Just think of all the people that you knew in the past<br />
That passed on, they in Heaven, found peace at last<br />
<br />
Picture a place that they exist together<br />
There has to be a place better than this in Heaven<br />
So right before I sleep, dear God, what I'm askin'<br />
Remember this face, save me a place in Thugz Mansion<br />
<br />
Ain't no place I'd rather be, children, dead homies and family<br />
Sky high, iced out paradise in the sky<br />
Ain't no place I'd rather be, only place that's right for me<br />
Chromed out mansion in paradise in the sky<br />
<br />
Ain't no place I'd rather be, children, dead homies and family<br />
Sky high, iced out paradise in the sky<br />
Ain't no place I'd rather be, only place that's right for me<br />
Chromed out mansion in paradise in the sky
