Lyrics

[Intro: Jadakiss] Uh, yeah, yeah, what? Yeah, what-what? Yeah-yeah, uh-huh, what? Yeah What? What? Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo [Verse 1: Jadakiss] This is a monopoly, niggas ain't stoppin' me And we can't lose 'cause Puff set us up properly Just won't settle for lesser, who wan' test us? We be in the 5 with the goose headrests LOX put niggas under pressure You shoulda knew that, it's always them new cats that'll get ya Better start lookin' at things from my angle I'm tryna be up on the ball with the triangle Next to my name with a ten or a twenty Now that's when you really can say you gettin' money But right now, all I do is sit back and listen To a wise young man that quickly became a rich one Put me up on the fact it ain't hard to get some Chips, if I just keep writin' with ambition Then I could advance from the five to the six and House with two kitchens, diamonds, plenty women Built-in pool to swim in But the plan is to start from the floor and 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 drop, all your sales is cut [Chorus: Black Rob] Can I live? No one man can stop me Can I live? No frontline can block me Can I live? It's enough base for all of us Can I live? Without the names you're calling us Can I live? No one man can stop me Can I live? No frontline can block me Can I live? Or do I got to bring it to these kids? Can I live? If I don't live, nobody live [Verse 2: Styles P] Time is money, money is power, so I'm sour 22 feelin' like I've wasted every hour Of my life, shoulda been had a million in ice High as a kite, feelin' the flight, turbulence Once in a blue moon I have a dream of fly shit Hang-glide to the Alps with the fly chick Condo in Fresno with the lesbo And the honey that she hit know how to stretch blow They know that I'm Styles, they respect the flow Why don't y'all let a nigga live and help him make a decimal? Truth will set you free, what will a lie do? Niggas said I'm God, but I be gettin' high too Can't love the money like niggas beside you 'Cause when the paper gone, you gon' slide too Niggas wanna ball, but got to fall to rise While the world spin around they wanna stall their eyes Close their ears, my nose makes me oppose my fear 'Cause I can smell Hell Before I sell out, rather catch a shell, farewell Niggas'll 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: Black Rob] Can I live? No one man can stop me Can I live? No frontline can block me Can I live? It's enough base for all of us Can I live? Without the names you're calling us Can I live? No one man can stop me Can I live? No frontline can block me Can I live? Or do I got to bring it to these kids? Can I live? If I don't live, nobody live [Verse 3: Sheek Louch] 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 on so I can make this bed Got two mattresses now, now I need is the spread With like four pillows so my seeds can rest their head You think Platinum is enough? Nah, Sheek want more Tryna sell more than Tickle me Elmo in the store Italian cuisine, linguine 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 gon' show you money like Jerry McGuire It's a thug thing, LOX product thing, conducting Anything for chips while you sit and blab your lips In the restaurant takin' tips while Sheek on trips Logos on our ships bustin' at the eclipse While I'm pissy, spittin' up Crissy in the water But you can do that for money, when a hundred's like a quarter [Chorus: Black Rob] Can I live? No one man can stop me Can I live? No frontline can block me Can I live? It's enough base for all of us Can I live? Without the names you're calling us Can I live? No one man can stop me Can I live? No frontline can block me Can I live? Or do I got to bring it to these kids? Can I live? If I don't live, nobody live [Verse 4: Black Rob] This is to my AK toters, money bill folders Bad bitch holders, whips with big motors On the low for years, the Feds can't decode us We bust rounds, all you gotta do is load us My night time prowlers and grimy after hours Karl Kani, Maur' Malone wearin', Eddie Bauers Flippin' cake niggas who strip and take niggas Upstate niggas, my Crystal Lake niggas We gon' hold it down if we gotta shake niggas And make niggas do what we say or break niggas Survival of the fittest, blame me, 'cause I did it Now you see me shinin', two mill' worth of diamonds And I owe it all to hard grindin', don't mean that I'ma stop climbin', '99, it's good timin' I salute my thugs who rock With the drugs and switch guns and pay 30 thou' for the slug Make it happen, I swear to God if I don't make it rappin' I'm clappin', extortin', and robbin' niggas cribs and car jackin' Can I live? [Outro: Black Rob] Can I live? No one man can stop me Can I live? No frontline can block me Can I live? Or do I got to bring it to these kids? Can I live? If I don't live, nobody live Can I live? No one man can stop me Can I live? No frontline can block me Can I live?
