[00:08.940] ****, tired of getting shot at
[00:10.840] Tired of getting chased by the police and arrested
[00:13.490] ****** need a spot where we can kick it
[00:15.680] A spot where we belong, that's just for us
[00:18.140] ****** ain't gotta get all dressed up and be Hollywood
[00:20.480] You knah'mean?
[00:21.670] Where do ****** go when we die?
[00:23.470] Ain't no heaven for a thug *****, that's why we go to Thug Mansion
[00:27.790] That's the only place where thugs get in free and you gotta be a G
[00:32.090] At Thug Mansion
[00:33.780] A place to spend my quiet nights, time to unwind
[00:36.800] So much pressure in this life of mine, I cry at times
[00:39.560] I once contemplated suicide and would of tried
[00:42.270] But when I held that 9, all I could see was my moma's eyes
[00:45.560] No one knows my struggle, they only see the trouble
[00:48.060] Not knowing it's hard to carry on when no one loves you
[00:51.100] Picture me inside the misery of poverty
[00:53.480] No man alive has ever witnessed struggles I survived
[00:56.450] Praying hard for 'Better Dayz', promise to hold on
[00:59.010] Me and my dogs ain't have a choice but to roll on
[01:01.840] We finally found a spot to kick it
[01:03.660] Where we can drink liquor and no one bickers over trick ****
[01:06.770] A spot where we can smoke in peace, and even though we G's
[01:09.640] We still visualize places, that we can roll in peace
[01:12.340] And in my mind's eye I see this place, the players go in fast
[01:15.000] I got a spot for us all, so we can ball, at 'Thugz Mansion'
[01:17.890] Every corner, every city
[01:20.300] There's a place where life's a little easy
[01:22.790] Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
[01:25.450] Every hour, cause it's all good
[01:28.100] Leave all the stress from the world outside
[01:30.980] Every wrong done will be alright
[01:34.140] Nothin but peace love
[01:36.540] And street passion, every ghetto needs a thug mansion
[01:39.690] Will I survive all the fights and the darkness?
[01:41.870] Trouble sparks, they tell me home is where the heart is, dear departed
[01:45.410] I shed tattooed tears and couldn't sleep good
[01:48.110] for multiple years, witness peers catch gunshots
[01:50.880] Nobody cares, seen the politicians ban us
[01:53.380] They'd rather see us locked in chains, please explain
[01:56.090] why they can't stand us, is there a way for me to change?
[01:58.630] Or am I just a victim of things I did to maintain?
[02:01.770] I need a place to rest my head
[02:03.520] with the little bit of homeboys that remains, cause all the rest dead
[02:07.330] Is there a spot for us to roll, if you find it
[02:09.720] I'll be right behind ya, show me and I'll go
[02:12.380] How can I be peaceful? I'm comin from the bottom
[02:14.970] Watch my daddy scream peace while the other man shot him
[02:17.960] I need a house that's full of love when I need to escape
[02:20.990] the deadly places slingin drugs, in thug's mansion
[02:23.340] Every corner, every city
[02:25.820] There's a place where life's a little easy
[02:28.270] Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
[02:30.880] Every hour, cause it's all good
[02:33.670] Leave all the stress from the world outside
[02:36.380] Every wrong done will be alright
[02:39.640] Nothin but peace love
[02:41.960] And street passion, every ghetto needs a thug mansion
[02:44.780] Dear Mama don't cry, your baby boy's doing good
[02:47.720] Tell the homies I'm in Heaven and they ain't got hoods
[02:50.480] Seen a show with Marvin Gaye last night, it had me shook
[02:53.280] Drinking peppermint Schnapps, with Jackie Wilson, and Sam Cooke
[02:56.330] Then some lady named Billie Holiday
[02:58.500] Sang sitting there kicking it with Malcolm, 'til the day came
[03:01.800] Little LaTasha sure grown
[03:03.480] Tell the lady in the liquor that she's forgiven, so come home
[03:06.900] Maybe in time you'll understand only God can save us
[03:10.060] When Miles Davis cutting loose with the band
[03:12.240] Just think of all the people that you knew in the past
[03:14.860] that passed on, they in heaven, found peace at last
[03:17.720] Picture a place that they exist, together
[03:20.620] There has to be a place better than this, in Heaven
[03:23.250] So right before I sleep, dear God, what I'm asking
[03:25.980] Remember this face, save me a place, in 'Thugz Mansion'
[03:28.730] Every corner, every city
[03:31.180] There's a place where life's a little easy
[03:33.650] Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
[03:36.350] Every hour, cause it's all good
[03:39.080] Leave all the stress from the world outside
[03:41.830] Every wrong done will be alright
[03:45.010] Nothin but peace love
[03:47.390] And street passion, every ghetto needs a thug mansion
