Lyricist:Anthony Corneli Hamilton, Johnny Lee Jackson, Tupac Amaru
Shakur, Marcus Vest

Tired of getting shot at
Tired of getting chased by the police and arrested
Niggas need a spot where we can kick it
Spot where we belong, that's just for us

Niggas ain't gotta get all dressed up and be Hollywood
You na' what I mean? Where do niggas 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

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 nine, all I could see was my mama's eyes

No one knows my struggle, they only see the trouble
Not knowing it's hard to carry on when no one loves you
Picture me inside the misery and poverty
No man alive has ever witnessed struggles I survived

Praying hard for better days, promised to hold on
Me and my dogs don't have a choice but to roll on
We finally found a spot to kick it
Where we could drink liquor and no one bickers over trick shit

A spot where we could smoke in peace and even though we Gs
We still visualize places that we could roll a piece
And in my mind's eye, I see this place the players go and pass
it
Got a spot for us all, so we can ball at Thugz Mansion

Ain't no place, I'd rather be
Chillin' with homies and family
Sky high, iced out paradise
In the sky

Ain't no place, I'd rather be
Only place that's right for me
Chromed out mansion in paradise
In the sky

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 the 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 comin' 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' drugs in Thugz Mansion

Ain't no place, I'd rather be
Chillin' with homies and family
Sky high, iced out paradise
In the sky

Ain't no place, I'd rather be
Only place that's right for me
Chromed out mansion in paradise
In the sky

Dear mama don't cry, your baby boy's doin' good
Tell the homies I'm in heaven and it ain't got hoods
Seen a show with Marvin Gaye last night, it had me shook
Drinkin' Peppermint Schnapps with Jackie Wilson and Sam Cook

Then some lady named Billie Holiday sang
Sittin' there, kickin' it with Malcolm till the day game
Li'l Latasha sure grown, tell the lady in the liquor store
That she's forgiven, so come home

Maybe, in time you'll understand, only God can save us
Where Miles Davis cutting 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 asking
Remember this face, save me a place in Thugz Mansion

Ain't no place, I'd rather be
Chillin' with homies and family
Sky high, iced out paradise
In the sky

Ain't no place, I'd rather be
Only place that's right for me
Chromed out mansion in paradise
In the sky, Thugz Mansion

Ain't no place, I'd rather be
Chillin' with homies and family
Sky high, iced out paradise
In the sky

Ain't no place, I'd rather be
Only place that's right for me
Sky high, iced out paradise
In the sky
