Let Me Live

Let me live

Let me live

Let me live

Let me live



Ya'll niggas really know me from the stories I tell (tell)

From the lifestyle I lead and the records I sell (sell)

Caught up in situations detrimental to me

And I been through every one for the world to see

That time is always movin' situations do change

And few don't always work out just the way that we plan

Still stand necessary be my friend and my foe

Either love me or you hate me

That's how the game goes

If it's wrong to be respected never ever say die

Remain strong never neglect to spread my wings and fly

Like you I been through struggles so much stress on my brain

Actin' out my life on stages and still had to maintain

Question my every decision

My intentions were good

Twist the story all around and make me misunderstood

Imagine that, no privacy but that's the price of this fame

Under attack, my destiny to be a soldier through rain



I flow I flow

Like water like water

And my desire

Like fire, like fire

I'm kickin' up dirt

From the earth, the earth

Imaginin' I'm the wind

Redeliverin' from deeper within



I flow I flow

Like water like water

And my desire

Like fire, like fire

I'm kickin' up dirt

From the earth, the earth

Imaginin' I'm the wind

Redeliverin' from deeper within



Let me live live

Let me live

In in inside

Inside intelligence

Say it say it say it

What you gotta say

Always ask

And you will be amazed



Let me live live

Let me live

In in inside

Inside intelligence

Say it say it say it

What you gotta say

Always ask

And you will be amazed



Just to make it in this world and go against all odds

Come from the gritty, in the city, to a superstar

Number one hit consistently for 10 long years

Put my soul in every project my blood, sweat, and my tears

Y'all know my status Left Eye the baddest

Underestimate don't hate it I keep it lavish

But it don't mean nothin' if I can't find peace of mind

Packin' all distractions away leave 'em behind

Say goodbye part-time small crimes and felonies

A new beginnin' I'm winnin' envision' the breeze

I'm dressed in all white linen and fallin' to my knees

Thankful for all that's been given I'm livin' with ease

Tropical trees 90 degrees please

Do like the birds and the bees and start a family

So reminisce on every line that I wrote

Know that I never will surrender and it's truth that I spoke



I flow I flow

Like water like water

And my desire

Like fire, like fire

I'm kickin' up dirt

From the earth, the earth

Imaginin' I'm the wind

Redeliverin' from deeper within



Let me live live

Let me live

In in inside

Inside intelligence

Say it say it say it

What you gotta say

Always ask

And you will be amazed



Let me live live

Let me live

Let me love love

Let me love

Let me learn learn

Let me learn

Let me laugh laugh

Let me laugh



Let me see see

Let me see

Let me sing sing

Let me sing

Let me smile smile

Let me smile

Let me ask ask

Let me ask



Let me live

Let me live

Let me live
