- Can I live-Jay-Z(by:白茫)
- Yeah, hah, yeah Roc-A-Fella
- We invite you to, something epic y'all know?
- Well we hustle out of a sense of, hopelessness
- Sort of a desperation
- Through that desperation, we 'come addicted
- Sorta like the fiends we accustomed to servin
- But we feel we have nothin to lose
- so we offer you, well, we offer our lives, right
- What do you bring to the table?
- While I'm watchin every nigga watchin me closely
- my shit is butter for the bread they wanna toast me
- I keep my head, both of them where they supposed to be
- Hoes'll get you sidetracked then clap from closed feet
- I don't sleep, I'm tired, I feel wired like codeine, these days
- a brother gotta admire from four fiends away
- My pain wish it was quick to see, from sellin 'caine
- til brains was fried to a fricaisse, can't lie
- At the time it never bothered me, at the bar
- gettin my thug on properly, my squad and me
- lack of respect for authority, laughin hard
- Happy to be escapin poverty, however brief
- I know this game got valleys and peaks, expectation
- for dips, four percent pertation we stack chips, hardly
- The youth I used to be, soon to see a mill'in
- No more, Big Willie my game has grown prefer you call me William
- Illin for revenues, grateful dim the light
- channel 7 news, round seven jewels, hand gettin the mic
- Forgettin all I ever knew, convenient amnesia
- I suggest you call my lawyer, I know the procedure
- Lock my body can't trap my mind, easily
- explain why we adapt to crime
- I'd rather die enormous than live dormant that's how we on it
- Live at the main event, I bet a trip to Maui on it
- Presidential suites my resedential for the weekend
- Confidentially speakin in codes since I sense you peekin
- The INXS rental, don't be fooled my game is mental
- We both out of town dog, what you tryin to get into?
- Viva, Las Vegas, see ya, later at the crap tables
- meet me by the one that starts a G up
- This way no fraud Willie's present gambling they re-up
- And we can have a pleasant time, sippin margaritas
- Ge-ge-geyeahhh, can I live?
- Can I live?
- My mind is infested, with sick thoughts that circle
- like a Lexus, if driven wrong it's sure to hurt you
- Dual level like duplexes, in unity, my crew and me
- commit atrocities like we got immunity
- You guessed it, manifest it in tangible goods
- Platinum Rolexed it, we don't lease
- we buy the whole care, as you should
- My confederation, dead a nation, EXPLODE
- on detonation, overload the mind of a said patient
- When it balls to steam, it comes to it
- we all fiends gotta do it, even righteous minds go through this
- True this, history school us to spend our money foolish
- Bond with jewellers and, watch for intruders
- I stepped it up another level, meditated like a buddhist
- Recruited lieutenants with ludicrous, dreams of
- gettin cream let's do this, against T-D-S
- So I keep one eye open like, C-B-S, ya see me
- stressed right? Can I live?
- Can I live?
- Can I live?
- Can I live?
