Sayri Tupac - Thug Mansion songtekst

Je score:

(feat. Anthony Hamilton)

Shit, tired of gettin shot at

Tired of gettin chased by the police and arrested

Niggaz need a spot where WE can kick it

A spot where WE belong, that's just for us

Niggaz ain't gotta get all dressed up and be Hollywood

Y'knahmean?  Where do niggaz go when we die?

Ain't no heaven for a thug nigga

That's why we go to thug mansion

That's the only place where thugs get in free and you gotta be a

G

... at thug mansion



[Verse One]

A place to spend my quiet nights, time to unwind

So much pressure in this life of mine, I cry at times

I once contemplated suicide, and woulda tried

But when I held that 9, all I could see was my momma's eyes

No one knows my struggle, they only see the trouble

Not knowin it's hard to carry on when no one loves you

Picture me inside the misery of poverty

No man alive has ever witnessed struggles I survived

Prayin hard for better days, promise to hold on

Me and my dawgs ain't have a choice but to roll on

We found a family spot to kick it

Where we can drink liquor and no one bickers over trick shit

A spot where we can smoke in peace, and even though we G's

We still visualize places, that we can roll in peace

And in my mind's eye I see this place, the players go in fast

I got a spot for us all, so we can ball, at thug's mansion



[Chorus: Anthony Hamilton]

Ain't no place I'd rather be

Chillin' with homies and family

Sky high, iced out paradise

In the skyyyyyyyyyy..

Ain't no place I'd rather be

Only place that's right for me

Chromed out mansion in paradise

In the skyyyyyyyyyy..



[Verse Two]

Will I survive all the fights and the darkness?

Trouble sparks, they tell me home is where the heart is, dear

departed

I shed tattooed tears and couldn't sleep good

for multiple years, witness peers catch gunshots

Nobody cares, seen the politicians ban us

They'd rather see us locked in chains, please explain

why they can't stand us, is there a way for me to change?

Or am I just a victim of things I did to maintain?

I need a place to rest my head

with the little bit of homeboys that remains, cause all the rest

dead

Is there a spot for us to roll, if you find it

I'll be right behind ya, show me and I'll go

How can I be peaceful?  I'm comin from the bottom

Watch my daddy scream peace while the other man shot him

I need a house that's full of love when I need to escape

the deadly places slingin drugs, in thug's mansion



[Chorus w/ minor ad lib variations]



[Verse Three]

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

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 liquorstore 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 of all the people that you knew in the past

that passed on, they in heaven, found peace at 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 thug's mansion



[Chorus - repeat 2X (w/ ad libs)]
