Chords for J. Cole- Can I Live

_ _ Yeah, pussy my passion, never been a fan of [B] flashin'
Probably cause I never could, said if I had it, never [C#m] would
Then I got my first little taste of paper and I splurged
I [G#m] guess it's just a nigga urge, this is the [C#m] boondock
I swear yo I'm like Huey mixed with Riley
[G#m] Thursday I be tryna save the world and then on Friday
I hit [C#m] the club, hopin' that my dick get rubbed by some fat [G#m] asses
Niggas get to scrappin' and you hear the gas [C#m] blastin'
Damn, all them niggas ain't got no problem with me
[G#m] My mama told me to speak like you got a college degree
[C#m] You see I can but I won't, cause I'm sayin' what I [G#m] want
That's a slang that I speak, don't change that I'm [C#m] deep
At the throat on this certified freak
Will she choke [G#m] as we headed to the crib?
Guess I'll let her give me head [C#m] since she don't remember where I live
My game is tight, [G#m] baby no need to bring pajamas
You ain't stayin' the night, [C#m] no disrespect, I just [C#m] stayin' polite
I drop her off [G#m] before I sleep, I be prayin' for life
Like Hov said [C#] it, can I live?
Hey dear Lord, can I live?
Hey, now am I livin' [C#m] to get paid?
Just slaves for a wage, are we?
[G#m] I can't do no 9 to 5, told my mama sorry
[C#m] I can't do no suit and tie, no I want the glory
If you knew [G#m] me, know my life is like a movie star, me
[C#m] Pardon me if it seems that I'm followin' my [G#m] dreams
I ain't readin' off the script that they picked for me
[C#m] I ain't pissed, nah, I couldn't give a shit, hardly
[G#m] I be shittin' on them niggas that was shittin' on me
Will I live [C#m] or will I die before they get to know me?
[G#m] If I go, I know the ones that's pourin' liquor for me
[C#m] And I know the fake niggas really hatin' on me
[G#m] Knew that I was bout to blow, so they was waitin' on me
[C#m] But oh no, Lord, you see I'm smarter than they know
So [C#m] hold on, Lord, cause I ain't quite ready to [G#m] go
Can I [C#m] live?
Somebody told me that it's only [D#m] one shot
So I'll be goddamned if I'm ever [C#m] gon' stop
Promise to my mama I'ma make it to the top
So I'ma keep climbin' till my heartbeat drop
Like the phone when she heard [D#] the news
Her sister on the other line, talkin' to [C#] her shoes
The only son, what a thing to lose
More [G#m] blacks singin' more blues
More niggas [C#m] pourin' more brews
Poor dude, he was young [G#m] like 21
Straight up out that city that I'm from
[C#m] A real smart nigga, but his niggas, they was dumb
[G#m] He ain't even get a chance to run
Before it landed in his lung
_ God, breathe, nigga
His partner's screamin', don't you fuckin' [C#] leave, nigga
Took off his shirt, tryin' to stop the bleedin', nigga
[G#m] Don't you go
But his life fadin' slow
[C#] Did I tell my mama I love her, do she know?
[G#m] Did I tell my baby sorry from before?
_ [C#] Won't get to see my son [G#m] grow
Lord, I ain't ready to go
[C#m] Can I live? _ _
[G#m] Can I live?
Dear Lord, can I [C#] live? _
[D#] Can I live?
[G#] _ [C#m] Yeah _ _ _
[G#m] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _
[G#m] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _
