But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it
Me be treated like a punk, you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you talking, and where you walking
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk

I really hate to gamble, but I gotta loc
As they croak 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 casino light

Been spending most their lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise
Been spending most their lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise

We keep spending most our lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise
We keep spending most our lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise


Look at the situation, they got me facin
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the cracka's
So I gotta be down with the hood team
Too much online gambling got me chasin dreams

I'm a non-educated fool wit gambling on my mind
Got my tin in my hand and a gleam in my eye
I'm a loc'ed out gangsta, set-trippin banger
And my homies is down, so don't arouse my anger, fool

Gambling ain't nuthin but a heart beat away
I'm livin life do-or-die ah, what can I say?
I gambled twenty-three now, but will I live to see twenty-fo'?
The way things is goin I don't know

Tell me why are we -- so blind to see
That the ones we hurt -- are me and me

Been spending most their lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise
Been spending most their lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise

We keep spending most our lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise
We keep spending most our lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise

Gambling and the money, money and the power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Everybody's runnin, but half of them ain't lookin
It's goin on in the kitchen, but I dont know what's cookin

They say I got ta learn, but nobody's here to teach me
If they cant understand it, how can they reach me?
I guess they can't -- I guess they won't
I guess they frontin; that's why I know my gambling problems is outta luck, fool

Been spending most their lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise
Been spending most their lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise

We keep spending most our lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise
We keep spending most our lives
Living in the Gambler's Paradise
