So We Can Live - 2 Chainz feat T-Pain
[Hook: 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 gon 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
[Verse 1: 2 Chainz]
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 smellin' 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 stressin' and my pockets sore
Hurtin', chillin' with my dog like a f_ckin' 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 puttin' girls up in the mornin'
And I'm goin' 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
Pullin' out the parking lot, headed to the other spot
Out all night, addict with addicts, causin' Havoc, I'm a Prodigy
N_ggas know we Mobbin' Deep, gotta stay up when everyone fall asleep
The good die young, and promises are hard to keep
I left my old job, and now them n_ggas 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', pumpin' that Jodeci
Sippin' and my soda pink, you n_ggas is toilet seat
Check my resume, it used to say I sold quarter keys
Conduct disorderly, stayin' in the trap house
Trips went to work, I'm so glad that it mapped out

[Verse 2: 2 Chainz]
Simon says, monkey see monkey do
I wore the shirt, you wore the same shirt too
See me with my b_tch, you buy your b_tch the same purse
Shoot you and your n_gga, y'all can share the same hearse
This that murder 1, mixed with the bubblegum
Kept working my dun dun duns, come get your mama some
N_gga, this that slum talk, some say we talks slums
I rarely finish the end of my words
Watch the rims hit on the curve
And what a n_gga really care about a lisp?
People arguin' over me while I'm layin' in a b_tch
Death to a snitch, get it while you can (break) and sh_t
Its 3:30 in the A.M.
We're just gettin' started like when I had the van
Bought the tour bus and put some n_ggas in the pass
Your style good enough to put in a glass bag
You know I'm getting' mine, you should use a hashtag
Flow off the hinges tryna f_ck all her friendses
Just killed her p_ssy, you gon' 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
[Verse 3: 2 Chainz]
Appetite for destruction, and I don't a menu
So far ahead of y'all n_ggas, I can see you in my rearview
See you in my rearview one of your headlights out n_gga
I just got my first R&B b_tch 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
