Tupac Thug Theory - A Gangster Life lyrics

A Gangster Life

To live a life of no regrets
Started from the life of cigarettes
The life of a gangster
Or you can even say gangbuster
For him no cares
And to understand him no one dares
He's just another Oakland thug society will
Crush him like a slug

There's no doubt that he claims blue he
Tries and tries to stay true
One day driving a stolen Camry
He got pulled over and thrown in jail
He was charged with felony number one
He's neither shocked nor stunned

But the lesson is never understood
Soon he returned to his hood
He met his crew in the avenue
And the life of sin continues
He had no dream of kids or wife
All he understands if thug four life
One after another his partners
Die he would leave
All this pain if only he could fly

He struggles day after day telling
Himself everything is okay
Soon, even his best friend is dead
And an empty future lies ahead
There's so much love that he needs
He screams as his soul will bleed
Now everybody is gone his crew
Is no longer strong

He chooses to rebuild his life even though
It could end with a bloody knife
To school he goes every day he tries
To listen to what the teachers say

He's finally living in the right way
He feels the future is light
He doesn't even think of the
Day he'll be dead
All he sees is a strong future lying ahead
