This Can't Be Life Lyrics - Beanie Sigel

[Jay-Z] 

Geah. whassup? 

Where's all my street niggaz, project niggaz 

Real niggaz, worldwide 

Let's reflect. e'rybody got a story 

We all ghetto B - here's mine 

Geah 

 

See I was -- born in sewage, born to make bomb music 

Flow tight like I was born Jewish 

Used the streets as a conduit - I kept arms 

38 longs inside my mom's Buick 

At any given moment Shawn could lose it, be on the news 

Iron cuffs - arms through it; or stuffed with embalmin fluid 

Shit, I'm goin through it - mom dukes too 

Tears streamin down her pretty face, she got her palms to it 

My life is gettin too wild 

I need to bring some sort kinda calm to it 

Bout to lose it; voices screamin "Don't do it!" 

It's like '93, '94, bout the year 

that Big and Mag dropped; and "Illmatic" rocked 

outta every rag drop, and the West had it locked 

Everybody doin 'em, I'm still scratchin on the block 

like "Damn; I'ma be a failure" 

Surrounded by thugs, drugs, and drug - paraphenalia 

Cops courts, and their thoughts is to derail us 

Three time felons in shorts with jealous thoughts 

Tryin figure where your mail is, guesstimate the weight you sellin 

So they can send shots straight to your melon; wait! 

It gets worse, baby momma water burst 

Baby came out stillborn, still I gotta move on 

Though my heart still torn, life gone from her womb 

Don't worry, if it was meant to be, it'll be -- soon

[Chorus: Jay-Z] 

This can't be life, this can't be love 

This can't be right, there's gotta be more, this can't be us 

This can't be life, this can't be love 

This can't be right, there's gotta be more, this can't be us 

 

[Beanie Sigel] 

Chill dog 

Second oldest born, from Michelle Brown my mother 

Hell bound, grew with two sisters and one brother 

Pop wasn't around, so many stories that's another 

I'm thinkin damn; how my older sister gon' make me tougher 

When steel sharpens steel, I'ma keep it real 

I'm tired of tryin to hide my pain behind the syrups and pills 

Dead to the world, stretched out like a corpse for real 

Y'all niggaz thinkin what y'all readin in The Source is real 

What my life like, you lookin at the source, it's real 

What your life like? Mine dog, of course it's real 

Passin judgment, you niggaz second-guessin Beans 

Cause you don't eat swine don't make you Amin 

Dog you know a couple suras, out the Qur'an 

I guess you all on your din and I ain't on mine 

Stop that Akki, 'fore I send shots though your body 

Make 'em feel feel hell on earth before Allah drop thee 

I feel the line's drawn here, nuttin more can stop me 

Till them feds pick me up, or them boys pop me 

There's only three things that make Mac not act like Beans 

Amatullah Tisha, Po Aldin, Samir Amin 

My seeds dog, gotta teach 'em that before I leave dog 

Shit I know that I'ma see 'em when I leave dog 

I come back in the afterlife 

Like fuck it I done touched hell twice; what's the meanin?

[Chorus] 

 

[Scarface] 

Yeah. uhh. 

Now as I walk into the studio, to do this with Jig' 

I got a phone call from one of my nigs 

Said my homeboy Reek, he just lost one of his kids 

And when I heard that I just broke into tears 

And see in the second hand; you don't really know how this is 

But when it hits that close to home you feel the pain at the crib 

So I called mine, and saddened my wife with the bad news 

Now we both depressed, countin our blessings cause Brad's two 

Prayin for young souls to laugh atlife through the stars 

Lovin your kids just like you was ours 

And I'm hurtin for you dog; but ain't nobody pain is like yours 

I just know that heaven'll open these doors 

And ain't no bright side to losin lifel; but you can view it like this 

God's got open hands homey, he in the midst. of good company 

Who loves all and hates not one 

And one day you gon' be wit your son 

I could've rapped about my hard times on this song 

But heaven knows I woulda been wrong 

I wouldn'ta been right, it wouldn'ta been love 

It wouldn'ta been life, it wouldn'ta been us 

This can't be life 

 

[Chorus] 

 

[Jay-Z] 

This can't be life.
