Shit, tired of gettin shot at

Tired of gettin 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 nigga

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



[Verse One: 2Pac]

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 shit

A spot where we can smoke in peace, and even though we G's

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



[Chorus: J. Phoenix (Nas)]

Every corner, every city

There's a place where life's a little easy

Little Hennessy, 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 (I wanna go)

Nothin but peace (I wanna go) love (I wanna go nigga)

And street passion, every ghetto needs a thug mansion
