2 Chainz - So We Can Live lyrics

rate me

feat. T-Pain

Honey, we got off on the wrong foot, baby

‘Cause the relationship has been so good lately

If I don’t do what I do, then who’s gonna put food on the table?

It is what it is, I’m just handling biz

But I do what I do so we can live

I only do what I do so we can live

I only do what I do so we can live

I only do what I do so we can live

I only do what I do so we can live

Mama don’t work, heater don’t work

Police pulled me over and said he seen weed on my shirt

I pray to the Lord and ask for forgiveness

If he popped my trunk I can get a life sentence

He came a little closer and told me that he smelling it

I said I rolled one up, I won’t insult your intelligence

But I threw it out the window half a mile ago

He asked me when the last time I smoke, I said a while ago

Forgive me officer, I’m stressing and my pockets sore

Hurting, chilling with my dog like a fucking Labrador

He said he ain’t with the bull, matador

Looked at the top of my car, like what this lighter for?

I told him I was putting goals up in the morning

And I’m going to my uncle’s house to see if he can join me

The officer got a call so he was needed

And he told me slow it down and I told him please believe it

Then I proceeded to go to my uncle’s house

Well, it really wasn’t my uncle, it was a junkie’s house

He got a badass niece with a donkey now

Pulling to the parking lot, headed to the other spot

Out all night, addict with the addicts, causing havoc, I’m a prodigy

Niggas know we mobbin’ deep, gotta stay up when everybody fall asleep

The good die young and promises are hard to keep

I left my old job and now them niggas hardly speak

I got a new job and plus I’m making more a week

The girl that I’m with is like a young Kimora Lee

I got them folks fiendin’, pumping that Jodeci

Sipping and my soda pink, you niggas is toilet seat

Check my resume, it used to say I sold quarter keys

Conduct disorderly, staying in the trap house

Trips went to work, I’m so glad that it mapped out

Honey, we got off on the wrong foot, baby

‘Cause the relationship has been so good lately

If I don’t do what I do, then who’s gonna put food on the table?

It is what it is, I’m just handling biz

But I do what I do so we can live

I only do what I do so we can live

I only do what I do so we can live

I only do what I do so we can live

I only do what I do so we can live

Simon says monkey see monkey do

I wore the shirt, you wore the same shirt, too

See me with my bitch, you buy your bitch the same purse

Shoot you and your nigga, y’all can share the same hearse

This that murder one mixed with the bubblegum

Kept working my dungeon duns, come get your mama some

Nigga, this that slum talk, some say we talk slums

I don’t really finish the end of my words

Watch the rims hit on the curve

And what a nigga really care about a lisp?

People arguing over me while I’m lying in a bitch

Death to a snitch, get it while you can and shit

Its 3:30 in the A.M.

We’re just getting started like when I had the van

Bought the tour bus and put some niggas in the past

Your style good enough to put in a glass bag

And you know I’m getting’ mine, you should use a hashtag

Flow off the hinges tryna fuck all her friendses

Just killed her pussy, you gonna have to use forensics

Organized crime, you can put me in a lineup

Plus I got dreads, I’ll pay a hundred for the line up

So we can live

So we can live

So we can live

So we can live

Appetite for destruction and I don’t need a menu

So far ahead of y’all niggas, I can see you in my rearview

See you in my rearview, one of your headlights out, nigga

I just got my first R&B bitch and got head all night with her

She said she tired of the generic

I say what up, she say what up, what up, you a parrot?

I’m like bird ass girl, aren’t you sick of the rhetoric?

And if I ain’t arrogant, I’m out of my element

So we can live

So we can live

So we can live

So we can live
