Lyrics

R, R C'mon, c'mon, bounce, bounce C'mon Bounce, rock, roll R, R You can do, whatever you want Whatever you like It's your own life So let me be (uh huh), to do what I want To do what I like 'Cause this is my life (R, R) It's been about ten long years, my skin wreaks Flavors that your incense couldn't match We burn slow like syphilis in your piss, accommodated With the penicillin, you're listenin' to It's "Art Official" will keep your shoes moonwalkin' Soon to talk about, Pop Music You'll buy it cause you choose it A lot of MC's is really S&M'n (R, R) Whips and chains, I maintain like a old jazz singer Ella Fitz in any location Held back in rotation, an apple a day Only makes a nigga fruity I eat responsibilities to carry out my duty Cribbin the MD's, I pull it out just to polish it Make notes if you earnin' or wait your turnbuckle I stick to gettin' mines like stucco (R, R) You can do (you can do), whatever you want (what you want) Whatever you like (what you like) It's your own life So let me be (let me be), to do what I want (what I want) To do what I like 'Cause this is my life (R, R) I'm that full-time rapper, the nickname's Llama Part-time father if you ask my daughter's mommas Missin' in action cause the action got a fraction Of the world listenin' to me Got me travelin' overseas in lands constantly Got a sea of hands wavin', ain't misbehavin' But a lot of kids cravin' for somethin' they ain't got Like the keys to the ride and a pocket with a knot and it's Holdin' they ground 'til they rot in it Plottin' it, lockin' it down strong Cause it's nothin' wrong gettin' your bubblin' on sticker But too much bubblin' can make you fizz quicker So watch your stack, keep your fam intact And pay attention to the now, I'm clearin' the mess While they stressin' back in the day, I'm at the front of the night With my crew shinin' light on the (R, R) You can do (you can do), whatever you want (what you want) Whatever you like (what you like) It's your own life So let me be (let me be), to do what I want (what I want) To do what I like 'Cause this is my life (R, R) You can do (you), whatever you want (what) Whatever you like (what you like) It's your own life So let me be (let me be), to do what I want (what I want) To do what I like (what I like) 'Cause this is my life (R, R) Now we on top of this like a typical bed position Peepin your view, got your whole crew wishin' and waitin' Makin dollars out of ten dime pieces Who be sippin' out the glass suckin' on the lime pieces included In my pieces I pen the good livin' And even when we're stressin' from in the hood livin' At least we're livin' and there ain't no hell in that Give me a yell in that, and go (R, R) I wanna see the world ten times over Dive off cliffs and land on opportunities unthinkable You sinkin' straight to the bottom; while I float in parades That St. Patty couldn't put up All my niggas tryin' to build, then throw your wood up Design life like PNB gears so stand clear for the blast off Last off my chest, peace to Dave West Live your life to the fullest (R, R) You can do (you can do), whatever you want (what you want) Whatever you like (what you like) It's your own life So let me be (let me be), to do what I want (what I want) To do what I like (what I like) 'Cause this is my life (R, R) You can do What you want What you like Let me be What I want What I like
