Kardinal Offishall - Jeevin' (Life) lyrics

[INTRO: Kardinal Offishall] Life [x3] It's life y'all, life Word up, life Uh, can you feel it? Life Life, we bring you in the light like this [CHORUS: Jully Black] Life is so sweet, thank the Lord for my days Oh, I'm living for today, life might be here went away Life is so sweet, thank the Lord for my days Oh, I'm living for today, life might be here went away [Kardinal Offishall] Lordy lordy, you took another body But he didn't cause trouble, didn't bother nobody He was, just a man trying to rock the mic But a bullet took his life, aw man Now my breadren eternally is wearing a dress suit with a shiny shoe Far stretched from a Gortex don't you think? I did, now all my man sees is eyelids Dreams turned into seven, prayers closer to Heaven Left his baby mother two weeks overdue Now the two join him, so what side it's truth Manifiested, because the bless-ed seem to go first Experience afterlife, the first light since birth Since we live amoung demons also known as Government Gangsters… and hookers made to walk the cement But I (I), Kardinal know the true flow I have no enemies, but every n***a is a foe And that's life [CHORUS] [Kardinal Offishall] Yo, life is what you do, choices between your crew or your girl I say f- the both of them and struggle solo Or so I tend to seek a bend in the road of life, mode of trifeness As brothers I was running with, dead and walking lifeless See the niceness is what you should be seeking When you... on the streets and the madness is peaking And you... should sit back and recollect Whether your self worth is in your hard work or a piece of leather More n***as worship idle Gods and call themselves what they pray to I sit back and meditate to clear my mind off all external pressure Sometimes pleasure of the body makes my mental feel lesser Guilt's a b**h when living for now instead of for the scripture But your afterlife will catch up with your Mister or misses kisses When I get you in my will and test the money, I find it funny Since I'm broke in the soul, my spirit's searching for longevity Ducking from stray shots is taking the best of me But I will maintain, success has a stain upon my brain What you make will remain, and that's life [CHORUS] [Jully Black] Life's so sweet You gotta thank the Lord for life You gotta thank the Lord for life [Kardinal Offishall] I want to be there to see the eyes of my baby girl Born into the world of chaos, money, AIDS and violence Silence breaks my concentration in my private world Organize, organize so I can flex with my boys Inside the lance will corrupt, trying to stick you for nothing Greed, sloth and five others are fillling up my brohters Word up Enemy is becoming a part of me and I'm all shooting glocks is making the block hot Spots rock, ‘cause n***as realize in between their finger Thinking buring completes the circle of being a rap singer The slogan used to be Just Say No, but now just say yo! And you as high as the sky go Imagine my mother said turn the other cheek But nowadays that will get you sprayed on your back you'll lay If I can't trust you, then unity never will exist It's the gritty quoted, yes it's just the life in the city Word life [CHORUS]
