The LOX - Can I Live lyrics
Intro: Jadakiss
Uh yeah, yeah, what what, yeah yeah, what, yeah, what, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo,
yo, yo
Verse One: Jadakiss
Yo this is a monopoly, niggaz ain't stoppin' me
and we can't lose cuz Puff set us up properly
Just won't settle for lesser, who wanna test us
we be in the 5 with the goose headrests
L.O.X. put niggaz under pressure
you shoulda knew that, it's always them new cats that'll get ya
Better start looking at things from my angle
I'm trying to be up on the board with a triangle
Next to my name with a 10 or a 20
now that's when you really can say you're getting money
But right now all I do is sit back and listen
to a wise young man who quickly became a rich one
Put me on the fact that it ain't hard to get some
chips if I just keep writing with ambition
Then I get an advance from the 5 to the 6 and
house with 2 kitchen, diamonds, pretty women
Built-in pool to swim in
But the plan is to start from the floor, then raise it up
then you hit 'em in the head 'til your days is up
You blazin' what, playboy you frail and butt
you know when Bad Boy drops, all our sales is tough
Chorus: Black Rob
Can I Live, no one man can stop me
Can I Live, no front-line can block me
Can I Live, its enough base for all of us
Can I Live, without the names they calling us
Can I Live, no one man can stop me
Can I Live, no front-line can block me
Can I Live, or do I have to bring it to these kids
Can I Live, if I don't live nobody lives
Verse Two: Styles Paniro
Time is money, money is power so I'm sour
22 feeling like I've wasted every hour
Of my life, shoulda been had a million in ice
high as a kite, feeling the flight
Turbulence, once in a blue moon I had a dream about fly shit
hangliding to the Alps with this fly chick
Condo in Fresno with a lesbo
and the honey that she hit knows how to stretch blow
You know that I'm Styles then respect the flow
why don't y'all let a nigga live and help him get a decimal
Truth will set you free what will a lie do
niggaz say I'm God but I be gettin' high too
Can't love the money like the nigga beside you
cuz when the paper gone...you gon' slide too
Niggaz wanna ball, but got to fall to rise
while the world spins around they wanna stall their eyes
Close their ears my nose makes me oppose my fears
cuz I can smell hell
Before I turn rat I'll catch a shell farewell
niggaz will never tell
Their man that I was pussy
unless they got a gun, and I ain't got one, I might let you push me
Chorus
Verse Three: Sheek Luchion
I pray to God to promise me, before I see the pearly gates
to let my whole team be straight, mansion no Section 8
Puttin' pressure so that I can make this bed
got 2 mattresses now all I need is the spread
With like 4 pillows so my seeds can rest their heads
You think platinum is enough, nah Sheek want more
tryin' to sell more than Tickle me Elmo in the store
Italian cuisine, Linguin. while my diamonds like "SHING"
so when I move at night time you might think it's LIGHTNING
Just throw me the ball once and I'll tell you no lie
Sheek gonna show you money, like Jerry McGuire
It's a thug thing
L.O.X. product thing conducting
Anything for chips while you sit and blab your lips
in the restaurant taking tips while Sheek on trips
Logos on our ships bustin' at the eclipse
Feelin' pissy, spittin' up Crissy in the water
but you can do that for money, when 100's like a quarter
Chorus
