Thugz Mansion (2Pac Original Acoustic) - 2Pac

Sh*t tired of getting shot at

Tired of getting 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 ni**a

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

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 sh*t

A spot where we can smoke in peace

And even though we gs 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

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

Nothing but peace love and street passion

Every ghetto needs a thug mansion

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 coming 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' *** in thug's 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

Nothing but peace love and street passion

Every ghetto needs a thug mansion

Dear momma don't cry your baby boy's doing' 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 liquor

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

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

Nothing but peace love and street passion

Every ghetto needs a thug mansion
