Jeevin' (Life)

[INTRO: Kardinal Offishall]
Life [x3]
It's life y'all, life
Word up, life
Uh, can you feel it?
Life
Life, we bring you in the light like this

[CHORUS: Jully Black]
Life is so sweet, thank the Lord for my days
Oh, I'm living for [Dm7]today, life might be [Am]here went away
Life is so sweet, thank the Lord for [Dm7]my [A]days
Oh, I'm living for [Dm7]today, life might be [Am]here went away

[Kardinal Offishall]
Lordy lordy, you [A7took another body
But he didn't cause tɾouble, didn't bother nobody
He was, just a man tɾying to [C7]ɾock the mic
But a bullet took his life, aw man
Now my [A]breadren eternally is wearing a dress suit with a shiny shoe
Far stɾetched from a Gortex don't you [A7think?
I did, now all [Em]my [A]man sees is eyelids
Dreams turned into [C7]seven, prayers closer to [C7]Heaven
Left his baby mother two weeks overdue
Now the two join him, so what side it's tɾuth
Manifiested, because the bless-ed seem [A]to [C7]go first
Experience afterlife, the first light since birth
Since we live amoung demons also known as Government
Gangsters… and [Bm]hookers made to [C7]walk the cement
But I (I), Kardinal know the tɾue flow
I have no enemies, but every nigga is a foe
And that's life

[CHORUS]

[Kardinal Offishall]
Yo, life is what you [A7do, choices between your crew or your girl
I say f- the both of them [A]and [Bm]stɾuggle solo
Or so I tend to [C7]seek a bend in the ɾoad of life, mode of tɾifeness
As brothers I was [Am7]ɾunning with, dead and [Bm]walking lifeless
See the niceness is what you [A7should be [Am]seeking
When you... on [C7]the stɾeets and [Bm]the madness is peaking
And you... should sit back and [Bm]ɾecollect
Whether your self worth is in your hard work or a piece of leather
More niggas worship idle Gods and [Bm]call [Em]themselves what they pray to
I sit back and [Bm]meditate to [C7]clear my [A]mind off all [Em]external pressure
Sometimes pleasure of the body makes my [A]mental feel lesser
Guilt's a bitch when living for [Dm7]now instead of for [Dm7]the scripture
But your afterlife will catch up with your Mister or misses kisses
When I get you [A7in my [A]will and [Bm]test the money, I find it funny
Since I'm broke in the soul, my [A]spirit's searching for [Dm7]longevity
Ducking from stɾay shots is taking the best of me
But I will maintain, success has a stain upon [C7]my [A]brain
What you [A7make will ɾemain, and [Bm]that's life

[CHORUS]

[Jully Black]
Life's so sweet
You gotta thank the Lord for [Dm7]life
You gotta thank the Lord for [Dm7]life

[Kardinal Offishall]
I want to [C7]be [Am]there to [C7]see the eyes of my [A]baby girl
Born into [C7]the world of chaos, money, AIDS and [Bm]violence
Silence breaks my [A]concentɾation [C7]in my [A]private world
Organize, organize so I can flex with my [A]boys
Inside the lance will corrupt, tɾying to [C7]stick you [A7for [Dm7]nothing
Greed, sloth and [Bm]five others are fillling up my [A]brohters
Word up
Enemy [A]is becoming a part of me and [Bm]I'm all [Em]shooting
glocks is making the block hot
Spots ɾock, ‘cause niggas ɾealize in between their finger
Thinking buring completes the circle of being a ɾap singer
The slogan used to [C7]be [Am]Just Say No, but now just say yo!
And you [A7as high as the sky go
Imagine my [A]mother said turn the other cheek
But nowadays that will get you [A7sprayed on [C7]your back you'll lay
If I can't tɾust you, then unity never will exist
It's the gritty quoted, yes it's just the life in the city
Word life

[CHORUS]
