"Power and the money, money and the power

Minute after minute, hour after hour

Everybody's running, but half of them ain't looking

It's going on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cookin'

They say I gotta learn, but nobody's here to teach me

If they can't understand it, how can they reach me

I guess they can't, I guess they won't

Been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise"

— GANGSTA'S PARADISE, Coolio ft. L.V
