Chaundon - Can I Live lyrics

rate me

Well alright. It's like a celebration of life. Can I live?

I'm bout to hit the scene

I'm bout to make a scream

I'm bout to see my face in every single magazine

I'm kickin' in the do'

And smashin' all these hoes

I got my eyes set on cribs, whips and flashy clothes

I've been here too long

It's bout time I bounce

I'm tryin' to lay up in a city that I can't pronounce

Black ass hell, lyin' in the sun gettin' darker

The juice is sweeter over here, I match a Magic Marker

I made a little change

Bust listen here mommy

I'm still ghetto, I ain't chasin' mixer with Bacardi

No one here's beefin'

My whole team is eatin'

Yeah we beastin', got an album out for every season

And now it's my turn

And they don't like that kicko

Cause I'ma Pain In Da Ass just like them Jigga intros

Son, I'ma milk this game, until the well runs dry

In record time and do it all in one try

Ya know

I'm bout to take it all, that's what I'm here for

I got my eyes on the prize, I'ma make it y'all

I've been patiently waitin', now it's mine for the takin'

Now watch history in the makin'

Whoa

Can I live?

You can't be serious

Can I live?

Yeah, I know it hurts to see a new nigga cakin'

Sweatin' in the kitchen for years and still bakin'

I don't mean no harm

Pardon my steps

Am I confident? Chaundon is a 5 star chef

Inspired by the likes of Rakim & Kane

B.D.P., Slick Rick, Doug E. Fresh & Dana Dane

Therefore the torch has been passed

So of course if you mistake me for less I'm forced to torch yo' ass

Can I live? Is the question I ask

So what I borrowed from Jay

He don't care, he's makin' money all day

I'm just tryin' to make me a meal

And besides, you ain't heard the old sayin', "All great artists steal"?

Huh?

So I'm ask y'all again

Can I live?

I ain't lookin' for permission, let a nigga do him

So as long as I'm alive there's another rhyme to scribe

Mic to grab, stage to rock and a crowd to wave 'em high ya know

I'm bout to take it all, that's what I'm here for

I got my eyes on the prize, I'ma make it y'all

I've been patiently waitin', now it's mine for the takin'

Now watch history in the makin'

Whoa

Can I live?

You can't be serious

Can I live?

Listen

The game remains the same, only the players change

Numbers get retired, few get to keep the fame

Many lose the fortune, won't get another break

So I play it smart then I learn from these niggas mistakes

I want the lavish life

And meet the baddest wife

It's the American dream, yeah, sho' yo' right

I want rappin' money

I want actin' money

Porno, casino and keep stackin' money

Hand over fist

Damn it I'm rich

Indecent Proposal, hand over your bitch

Check out my blueprint

My foundation is strong, I'm bout to have a run 30 generations long

Many will follow, I'll lead by example

Takin' over New York, I see it as a sample

So to my Source, XXL and Vibe readers

My name is Chaundon

And it's nice to meet ya

I'm bout to take it all, that's what I'm here for

I got my eyes on the prize, I'ma make it y'all

I've been patiently waitin', now it's mine for the takin'

Now watch history in the makin'

Whoa

Can I live?

You can't be serious

Can I live?
