Skydiver's Paradise Song

Recommended Posts

I sat down yesterday evening and worked on this. Just sing this song along with the Coolio version of "Gangsta's Paradise".


As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life
And realize there's nothing left
'Cause I've been jumpin' and diving so long
That even my momma thinks that my mind has gone
But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't understand it
Me be treated like a punk you know that's unheard of
You betta watch how ya talking
And where ya walking
Or you and your wuffo friends might be lined in chalk
I really hate to trip but I gotta loc
As they croak, I see myself in the engine smoke
Fool, I'm the kinda phreak that little jumper's wanna be like
On my knees in the night
Saying prayers in the beacon light


1-Been spending most our lives
Living in a skydiver's paradise (2)
Keep spending most our lives
Living in a skydiver's paradise (2)

They got this situation, they got me facing
I can't have a normal life, I was raised for better
So I gotta be down with the wuffo team
Too much television watching, got me scared of flyin'
I'm an educated fool with jumpin' on my mind
Got my hackey in my hand and a gleam in my eye
I'm a low down puller, set tripping swooper
And my phreaks is down so don't arouse my anger
Fool, death ain't nothing but a heart beat away
I'm living life do or die, what can I say?
I'm twenty-two now but will I live to see twenty-three
The way things is going I don't know.

2-Tell me why are you so blind to see
That the ones you see, are so dang free

(rpt 1)

Power in the money, money in the power
Jump after Jump, pack job after pack job
Everybody's jumpin', but half of them ain't looking
At what's going on in the kitchen
But I don't know what's cooking.
They say I gotta learn
But nobody's gonna teach me
If they can't understand, how can they reach me?
I guess they can't
I guess they won't, I guess they stuck
That's why I know my life is out of luck, foo!

(rpt 1, 2, 2)


Blue Skies,
Jeremy
