Discover the story of the song > Gangster S Paradise Remix – 2Pac

In these lyrics, the protagonist (a male) is talking about being caught up in a life of crime and violence. He mentions robbing people and leaving a witness behind, and he wonders if he will get caught or if the witness will snitch on him. He also talks about feeling trapped and paranoid because people are talking behind his back. He mentions being schizophrenic and wanting to win in life like a game. He has no time for police and is willing to do anything to protect himself. He talks about beef with society and feeling misunderstood by people who judge him. He talks about his uncle abusing him and how it fueled his anger. He mentions being in jail and experiencing terrible things like rape. Despite all this, he never loses hope and asks his mama to pray for him. He knows that when they come for him, he'll fight until the end.
