I Love My Life

featuring Carl Thomas

[Noreaga]

Can't stop thinkin of the game y'know what'm mean? Can't get the game out my

mind. Gotta get out the game tonight though y'know what'm sayin? (Aw word)

It's damn time. This is real y'know what'm sayin? Growin up (yeah) I did my

little work. (what what what what) Sold my little work. (What what)

Y'know what'm sayin?

[Verse One]

Yo I grew up like the regular thug sold drugs

Wasn't proud about it, but this is what I gotta do

I copped the Jordan's, and the Fi-la's, too

Yo, I loved the Bo Jackson's, the orange and blue

Used to snatch Lee patches, now I wear Cartier glasses

Thinkin that the earth's axis,

revolves around my waist.. and how the fuck I feel

Yo I played ball for Vince, yo I handled the pill

Then it dawned on me, came strong on me

I belonged with these, niggaz thuggin with me

So I switched crews, started rollin with the older dudes

Drinkin brews, did what they say, and paid dues

My hands dirty, trying to keep little Lea

And got jerked, the first time I tried to re-up

People my age, tried to say slow my speed up

Cause I smoked bogies, staked on weed up

Chorus: [Carl Thomas] (Noreaga)

I love my life (Love my life, yo)

Sold drugs my life (Did it all in my time)

Its my whole life (Live it up)

I sacrificed (Sacrificed twice)

This game we play (Play for keeps)

I live and pray (Control the streets)

Hear her say (Yo, just live your life, baby, live your life,baby)

Ooo, yeah

[Verse Two]

These is the days of sparkin, I used to roll with Rob Profit

Troy Outlaw, Freddie Bedrock, and Joe Wood

Runnin in Timbo's ???, shine shoes

Section Two, part of Iraq I grew up at

Had to learn how to slapbox, instead of a gat

I never knew rap, all I knew was crack

Yo there's rules to this game, and people to blame

When you see another little brother doing the same

As you used to

Growing up like you

Palyin skully, with his heat out, cellular phone

Getting little drug money, but got the world sewn

I recall, cause he gonna die

Yo, I cry

It's hard to, get tarred up with God jewel, part two

Smily got shot up to (Rest in peace)

Aiyyo, you realize that you miss a nigga (miss him)

When you realize (realize) that you never gonna see him again

Chorus

[Verse Three]

Aiyyo, its totally, up to the team, to me

So don't, make a move if you don't ask me

I'm, casually known, halfly blown

In Miami, cause now Uncle Wise came home

Jello, copped me a Role', copped them one, too

You keep it real with a person, keep it real with you

Use confidence, Thugged Out aimed for dominance

Nostradam' in this, he slits wrists just like ?Glomerus?

??, Grenad', iced out for Tito

Puerto Rico, we live life now cause we know

The other side of the fence stay friendly

Its just war in there, done, there ain't no Henny

I can't live that, déjà vu, I did that

I gained stats, rumblin cats over Kit Kats

Now I spit raps, park my Benz where the chicks at

And just live with a big stack
