This Way

[Intro: Kanye West and choir] Now turn it up, turn it up, a little louder Turn it up, turn it up, little louder Now turn it up, can't live my, I, I can't live my I can't live my, I, I can't live Now turn it up, turn it up [Verse 1: Evidence] Yeah, yo I can't live my I, I can't live my Life this way, continually get high Instead of running 'round, lock one bird down It's a new day, gotta do it big just to get right Show no respect can't live that way You hold my check, can't live that way Without my chick on deck, can't live that way They say what they like, but I've been that way Our moves calculated through the lens, almost here Success will be the best revenge Man, from Clint East' to Kanye West The sun can't chill but everyday it sets (Evidence!) [Hook: Choir + (Female Choir)] This time I made up my mind This time I'm back on my grind I know there's things in my life That I'mma let go starting tonight (I can't live my, I, I can't live my) (I can't live my, I, I can't live my) I can't live my, I, I can't live my I can't live my life this way (can't live my, I, I can't live my) This way (I can't live my, I, I can't live my) This way, I can't live my, I, I can't live my I can't live my life this way [Verse 2: Kanye West] My favorite girl wanna leave me just because I got a girlfriend My freak girl told me now, she a Christian My White girl wanna move back to Michigan I'm pulling girls off the bench like a sixth man I'm in the club doing the same ol' two step While Omegas doing the same ol' "Q" step I have my money on my mind, I was thinking green She a pledge A.K.A., she was pink and green I want a good girl, she want a gentleman We saying the same thing like a synonym I wasn't really spitting game I was scrimmaging My penmanship so hard it needs censorship I'm a Chicagoan till Chicago ends Till we blow like Chicago wind I don't know what's better, getting laid or getting paid I just know when I'm getting one, the other's getting away This way [Hook] [Verse 3: Rakaa Iriscience] Go 'head, flip a coin so the game can start Believe I know the drama, kid name the part I learned before the hot flame came the spark It's like before the pop fame came to 'Pac But this industry'll play with your life man They playing with your rent, food, water and lights man That's why Rakaa brings it like that ol' Toddy Tee jam The Batterram then I'm off to Amsterdam To rest up for strength to deal with this weight To deal with these deals, to deal with this hate I dedicate this Jam Master Jay Run-D.M.C. showed me how to walk, this way [Hook]
