Salt N Pepa - Live & Let Die Lyrics
Im a sister with a grip on her lifeI only live once so I gotta get rightThe first time cuz there wont be a secondIm not in the mood to preach about the wrong of the worldIt cant be changed by three girlsOn the trio tip, were not a proof of that tripExcuses, thats the truth when the proof compellinI aint tellin or sellin out to the pop lifeI like the spotlightGimme a mic and a beat so I can speak words of wisdomI may be young, feed some, fall down, and filled up, Im gonna build upKnowledge is food for thought so lets eat upWhatever goes up, comes down, you see nothin lasts foreverNot even mcs, you, he, she, and even I should live and let liveOr live and let dieLive and let dieYoure wastin time tryin to change the mindOf those whos souls are full of holesI do unto others as I wish them to do unto meLife aint nothin but death without moneyMy way of thinkin is one-trackMy method of convincin combatSuccess is a mission, its there for anyone who wants to do betterYou know where Im comin fromSurvival of the fittest, and Ill admit its viciousI testify as a witnessLet me say this first for what its worthIts true that the meek shall inherit the earthBut that dont mean you gotta be weak or softEven on the mic you cant take no shortsI only help those who want to help themselves if no one elseAs a youngster they taught me to live and let liveAnd thats what I always did, word to mizBut theres a change in the world that I live inSo dont be surprised if I live and let dieLive and let dieLive and let dieThats the eighth time that baser almost o.d.d, manLive and let dieYo, finster, baby, went up for homicideLive and let dieHes out there skeezin with no jimmy hatLive and let dieK-bone was shortin the fuzz and got dumpedLive and let die
