Here's the lyrics. I'm sending them around to everybody I know. Let's help this get all the publicity we can! And air time! And album sales!

Album: Nick Cannon
Song: Can I Live

[Talking]
Talking Ma
I know the Situation is Personal
but it’s something that has to be told.
As I was making this beat
you was all I could think about, you heard my voice.

[Verse 1]
Yeah Just think Just Think
what if you could Just
Just blink your self away..
Just Just wait just pause for a second
Let me plead my case:

Its the late 70's Huh
You Seventeen Huh
and having me, that will ruin everything, huh
it’s a lot of angel waiting for there wings
you see me in your sleep ---so you cant kill your dreams
300 Dollars. that’s the price of living what?
Mommy I don’t like this clinic!

Hopefully you'll make the right decision
and dont go though with the Knife Decision
but It’s hard to make the right move
when you in high school
how you have to work all day and take night school
hopping off da bus when the rain is pouring--
What you want, morning sickness or the Sickness of mourning?

[Chorus]
I Will Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE
I Will Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE

[Verse 2]
I' m a child of the king
ain’t no need to go fear me
and I see the flowing tears, so I know that you hear me.
When I move in your womb that's me being scaredy
cause who knows what my future holds?
Yo --the truth be told you aint told a soul
Yo-- you aint even showing, I just 2 months old
though your clothes try to hide me deny me went up 3 sizes
your pride got you lying saying ain’t nothing but a migraine.
It ain’t surprising, you not trying to be in WIC food lines.
Your friends look at you funny, but look at you, mommy
thats a life inside you, look at your tummy!
What is becoming, Ma--- I am Oprah bound
you can tell he's a star from the Ultrasound
Our Spirits Connected ---Doors Open Now
Nothing But Love And Respect Thanks For Holding Me Down
She Let Me Live...

[Chorus]
I Will Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE
I Will Always Be apart of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE

[Repeat 2]
[Talking]
It’s uplifting for real, y’all
I ain’t passing no judgment
ain’t making no decisions
I am just telling ya'll my story
I love life
I love my mother for giving me life
we all need to appreciate life
a strong woman that had to make a sacrifice
Thanks for listening
Thanks for listening
Mama thanks for listening
