Can I Live Lyrics by ANTHM

When We Were Kings

0

[Intro]
Can I Live? No one man can stop me
Can I Live? No front line can block me
Can I Live? Or do I gotta bring it to these kids
Can I Live? If I don't live nobody lives
[Verse]
Young black entrepreneurs knockin' on doors
Kick em down til we on top of the Forbes
Foresight like binoculars, cocky of course
My IPO’s now, see the stock when it when soars
See me just climbin', shinin' like a VVS diamond
He be just rhyming
Spittin' baguettes when I reflect so invisibly set
The bigger we get, no chance you get rid of me yet
I was chillin' low key in my disguise
Believe me I be greedy when I rise
Hoes say I’m easy on the eyes
Denzellin', with a helluva pen
Cast a spell I develop within
Like Prince Akeem and Semi I feen
Whoa, I never asked you to gimme my dreams
I just scheme till I pass through the Jimmy Iovine's
Bumpin' "Cash Rules" gimme my cream, can I live?
I’ll never lose appeal, make my solution real
AMG, Roc-A-Fella style distribution deal
I got a crucial feel, flow’s stupid ill
Southern niggas bump my record from they coupe de ville
Next stop, #1 in the globe
Not the backburner, put me on the front of the stove
Heatin' up, stack bread I’m comin' for loaves
It ain't easy no Weezy, I ain't runnin' with Hov
Pardon me while I boast mine
Independent with no co-signs, but we both shine
Me and DG, decipherin' the code fine
We see behind the red curtains and the closed blinds
We can’t let it be, it ain't my pedigree
The by-product of brainpower you’ll never see
Ain't a rapper quite like me, I’ll battle rap you fight nightly
Ya raps don’t excite me
Ya flow lacks what I get across in most raps
On the mic I’m the opposite of pro black
I hate niggas that’s so wack
I’m throwback like bobby Womack or episodes of Kojack
Grab a Kodak and flash twice
I invest while you flash ice livin off ya past life
I’m mad nice when I grab mics
Bury the competition see the Scottish kilts and the bagpipes
AMG, lyricism at its finest
Timeless rhymes bitch rewind this
[Outro]
Can I Live? No one man can stop me
Can I Live?
