NLE Choppa & B.O.A Mook - CAN WE LIVE?

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh (can we live?)

I know some kids totin' guns before they learn how to tie they shoe
No more bedtime stories, they puttin' shit to sleep too
Losin' hope in the future, they killin' off the whole youth
I'm tryna live my dream like Martin Lu'

Can we live? (People dyin' e'ry day)
We wanna live (tryin' my best to stay out the way)
Can we live? (People dyin' e'ry day)
We wanna live (I'm tryin' my best to stay out the way)

Can we live? (Can we live? Can we live?)
Oh, I wanna live (can we live? Can we live?)
Can we live? (My people dyin' e'ry day)
We wanna live

Have you ever lost a brother to this life of crime?
Everybody dyin' and everybody totin' iron
Mothers shouldn't be forced to cry 'cause they kids had to die-ie-ie
Why they have to say goodbye? (Oh lord, these tears)
We speak on police brutality, we don't speak on black-on-black crimes
How black lives matter when we kill each other?
The world can be so better if we all come together

Is everyone distracted?
Is the news for information or is a distraction?
Oh, oh, can we live?
I wanna live, oh

Can we live? (People dyin' e'ry day)
We wanna live (tryin' my best to stay out the way)
Can we live? (People dyin' e'ry day)
We wanna live (I'm tryin' my best to stay out the way)

Can we live? (Can we live? Can we live?)
Oh, I wanna live (can we live? Can we live?)
Can we live? (My people dyin' e'ry day)
We wanna live (ay)

I say "long live" and "rest in peace"
More than "I love you" and "we made it up out the streets"
Need an 808 that can recreate them a heartbeat
Every week, I'm gettin' weak, I lost my dawg to petty beef

21 questions for God (uh)
Will I live to see 21? Because that's beatin' the odds (oh lord, these tears)
I got some peas in a pod that won't see a brighter day
GTL call, I play Tevo my music and it hurt me that way

'Cause I'm dyin' on the inside
He only ten years old with a Glock 9 (Glock 9)
Mama on drugs, daddy gone, so he outside (so he outside)
Incarnated or a grave where he may reside (where he may reside at)

Can we live? (People dyin' e'ry day)
We wanna live (tryin' my best to stay out the way)
Can we live? (People dyin' e'ry day)
We wanna live (I'm tryin' my best to stay out the way)

Can we live? (Can we live? Can we live?)
Oh, I wanna live (can we live? Can we live?)
Can we live? (My people dyin' e'ry day)
We wanna live

To die young means incompletion (all these tears)
To live old is somethin' that I'm seekin' (oh lord, these tears)
Be the change that you wanna see (can we live?)
Heavenly Father, wake me when I'm free (can we live?)

Dangerous in these streets
Angels watchin' over me, I pray when karma creep
It's the good that I reap, I'm tired of rest in peace
My heart been yearnin' for some peace
Can we live? I don't wanna D-I-E
