Live And Let Die Lyrics - Blacks' Magic - Salt N Pepa

I'm a sister with a grip on her life 

I only live once so I gotta get right 

The first time 'cuz there won't be a second 

I'm not in the mood to preach about the wrong of the world 

It can't be changed by three girls 

On the trio tip, we're not a proof of that trip 

Excuses, that's the truth when the proof compellin' 

I ain't tellin' or sellin' out to the pop life, I like the spotlight 

Gimme a mic and a beat so I can speak words of wisdom 

I may be young, feed some, fall down and filled up, I'm gonna build up 

Knowledge is food for thought so let's eat up 

Whatever goes up, comes down, you see nothin' lasts forever 

Not even MCs, you, he, she, and even I should live and let live 

Live and let die 

You're wastin' time tryin' to change the mind 

Of those who's souls are full of holes 

I do unto others as I wish them to do unto me 

Life ain't nothin' but death without money 

My way of thinkin' is one-track 

My method of convincin' combat 

Success is a mission, it's there for anyone who wants to do better 

You know where I'm comin' from 

Survival of the fittest, and I'll admit it's vicious 

I testify as a witness 

Let me say this first for what it's worth 

It's true that the meek shall inherit the earth 

But that don't mean you gotta be weak or soft 

Even on the mic you can't take no shorts 

I only help those who want to help themselves 

If no one else 

As a youngster they taught me to live and let live 

And that's what I always did, word to miz 

But there's a change in the world that I live in 

So don't be surprised if I live and let die 

Live and let die 

Live and let die 

That's the eighth time that baser almost O.D.'d, man 

Live and let die 

Yo, Finster, baby, went up for homicide 

Live and let die 

He's out there skeezin' with no Jimmy hat 

Live and let die 

K-bone was shortin' the fuzz and got dumped 

Live and let die
