featuring Black Rob



Intro: Jadakiss



Uh yeah, yeah, what what, yeah yeah, what, yeah, what, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo,

yo, yo



Verse One: Jadakiss



Yo this is a monopoly, niggaz ain't stoppin' me

and we can't lose cuz Puff set us up properly

Just won't settle for lesser, who wanna test us

we be in the 5 with the goose headrests

L.O.X. put niggaz under pressure

you shoulda knew that, it's always them new cats that'll get ya

Better start looking at things from my angle

I'm trying to be up on the board with a triangle

Next to my name with a 10 or a 20

now that's when you really can say you're getting money

But right now all I do is sit back and listen

to a wise young man who quickly became a rich one

Put me on the fact that it ain't hard to get some

chips if I just keep writing with ambition

Then I get an advance from the 5 to the 6 and

house with 2 kitchen, diamonds, pretty women

Built-in pool to swim in

But the plan is to start from the floor, then 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 drops, all our sales is tough



Chorus: Black Rob



Can I Live, no one man can stop me

Can I Live, no front-line can block me

Can I Live, its enough base for all of us

Can I Live, without the names they calling us

Can I Live, no one man can stop me

Can I Live, no front-line can block me

Can I Live, or do I have to bring it to these kids

Can I Live, if I don't live nobody lives



Verse Two: Styles Paniro



Time is money, money is power so I'm sour

22 feeling like I've wasted every hour

Of my life, shoulda been had a million in ice

high as a kite, feeling the flight

Turbulence, once in a blue moon I had a dream about fly shit

hangliding to the Alps with this fly chick

Condo in Fresno with a lesbo

and the honey that she hit knows how to stretch blow

You know that I'm Styles then respect the flow

why don't y'all let a nigga live and help him get a decimal

Truth will set you free what will a lie do

niggaz say I'm God but I be gettin' high too

Can't love the money like the nigga beside you

cuz when the paper gone...you gon' slide too

Niggaz wanna ball, but got to fall to rise

while the world spins around they wanna stall their eyes

Close their ears my nose makes me oppose my fears

cuz I can smell hell

Before I turn rat I'll catch a shell farewell

niggaz will 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



Verse Three: Sheek Luchion



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 so that I can make this bed

got 2 mattresses now all I need is the spread

With like 4 pillows so my seeds can rest their heads

You think platinum is enough, nah Sheek want more

tryin' to sell more than Tickle me Elmo in the store

Italian cuisine, Linguin. 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 gonna show you money, like Jerry McGuire

It's a thug thing

L.O.X. product thing conducting

Anything for chips while you sit and blab your lips

in the restaurant taking tips while Sheek on trips

Logos on our ships bustin' at the eclipse

Feelin' pissy, spittin' up Crissy in the water

but you can do that for money, when 100's like a quarter



Chorus
