Thugz Mansion (N.Y.)
作詞:Claudio Cueni, Michael Herring, Johnny Jackson, Nasir Jones, Larry Loftin, Tupac Shakur
I want you to close your eyes And vision the most beautiful place in the world If you in the hood on the ghetto street corner Come on this journey, the best journey Some mansion, acres of land and swimming pools And all that, check it out
I'm capable of anythin', my imagination can give me wings To fly like doves over the streets watchin' many things Kids walkin' home from school on drug blocks Missionaries pass out papers that read, 'Love God' I see faces, cases, judges and jurors Masons, lawyers and cops I watch because every thug's face is my mirror But this was one in particular
This kid, he was the vintage stick em up pro 16 years old, did his jail sentence, nowhere to go Every mornin' calls his comrade To come and get him to smoke He's insane, already gone mad Blames himself for his setbacks Dangerous street corners where his sets at Sling from dust to dawn
Detectives act like they maniacs Chasin' him, his ass was flarin' Smokin' like a chimney on Remy Of course he's not carin' He need a place to go To keep his mind expandin' I give him a helpin' hand And, bring him out to Thugz Mansion
Every corner, every city there's a place where life's a little easy Little Hennessey, laid back and cool every hour, 'cause it's all good Leave all the stress from the world outside Every wrong done will be alright, nothin' but peace, love And street passion, every ghetto needs a Thugz Mansion
Dear Momma, don't cry, your baby boy's doin good Tell the homies, I'm in heaven and they ain't got hoods Seen a show with Marvin Gaye last night, it had me shook Drippin peppermint schnapps with Jackie Wilson, and Sam Cooke 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 Then some lady named Billie Holiday sang Sittin' there kickin' it with Malcolm, 'til the day came Little Latasha, sho' grown, tell the lady in the liquor store That she's forgiven, so come home
Maybe in time you'll understand, only God can save us When Miles Davis' cuttin' lose with the band Just think all the people that you knew in the past That passed on, they in heaven, found peace that last Picture a place that they exist, together There has to be a place better than this, in heaven So right before I sleep, dear God, what I'm askin' Remember this face save me a place, in Thugz Mansion
Every corner, every city there's a place where life's a little easy Little Hennessey, laid back and cool every hour, 'cause it's all good Leave all the stress from the world outside Every wrong done will be alright, nothin' but peace, love And street passion, every ghetto needs a Thugz Mansion
A place where death doesn't reside, just thugs who collide Not to start beef but spark trees, no cops rollin' by No policemen, no homicide, no chalk on the streets No reason, for nobody's momma to cry See I'm a good guy, I'm tryin' to stick around for my daughter But if I should die, I know all of my albums support her This whole year's been crazy, asked the Holy Spirit to save me Only difference from me and Ossie Davis, gray hair maybe
'Cause I feel like my eyes saw too much sufferin' I'm just twenty-some-odd years, I done lost my mother And I cried tears of joy, I know she smiles on her boy I dream of you more, my love goes to Afeni Shakur 'Cause like Ann Jones, she raised a ghetto king in a war And just for that alone she shouldn't feel no pain no more 'Cause one day we'll all be together, sippin heavenly champagne What angels saw, with golden wings in Thugz Mansion
Every corner, every city there's a place where life's a little easy Little Hennessey, laid back and cool, every hour, 'cause it's all good Leave all the stress from the world outside Every wrong done will be alright, nothin' but peace, love And street passion, every ghetto needs a Thugz Mansion
