Can I Live

Back


Hermosa cancion sobre la vida, el aborto y el amor. Basado en una historia real (la del propio cantante). Letra:
"Can I Live"
(feat. Anthony Hamilton)

[Talking]
Talking Ma
I know the Situation is Personal
But it 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
It's the late 70's Huh
You Seventeen huh
And having me that will ruin everything huh
It's alot of angels waiting on their wings
You see me in your sleep so you cant kill your dreams
300 Dollars thats the price of living what?
Mommy I dont like this clinic
Hopefully you'll make the right decision
And dont go through with the Knife incision
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'll Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know it's always true
If I Could Talk I'd Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE
I'll Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know it's always true
If I Could Talk I'd Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE

[Verse 2]
I am a child of the king
Ain't no need to go fear me
And I see the flowing tears so know that you hear me
When I move in your womb that's me being scary
Cause who knows what my future holds
Yo the truth be told you ain't told a soul
Yo you ain't even showing I'm just 2 months old
Through 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 will look at you funny but look at you mommy
That's 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 Sprits Connected Doors Open Now
Nothing But Love And Respect Thanks For Holding Me Down She Let Me Live...

[Chorus]
I'll Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know it's always true
If I Could Talk I'd Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE
I'll Always Be apart of you
Trust Your Soul Know it's always true
If I Could Talk I'd Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE
[Repeat 2]

[Nick Talking]

It's uplifting foreal yall
I ain't passing no judgement
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

'That's the ones who were surveyed, which is not every woman who's had an abortion.'

True, good point.

But I never said abortions were easy things to do. It can be hard emotionally, yeah, but that doesn't mean that deep down they know it's wrong.

A couple of women don't account for all, as you pointed out. Every woman is unique in how she feels after an abortion.

I never said that because someone couldn't feel pain we have a right to kill them.

I simply said that a fetus doesn't feel pain until a certain time, one where less abortions take place then at any other time.

Did you know that plants feel pain? They're actually as sensitive as animals. When they're pulled from the ground they 'scream' with electrophysiological pain.

Should we stop harvesting vegetables?

I didn't reply to this first, but I made some posts explaining some of the things you said, so I'm not going to repeat them.

Have you ever seen what a fetus looks like at about 11 weeks? It doesn't look human at all. Furthermore, just because something looks like another, doesn't mean it is. If someone were to dress up like a doctor, that wouldn't give them a medical license.

I never said they weren't alive, I said they weren't persons.
DeadOverHeels (January 8, 2009 at 4:35 pm)
It's her body, and even if a fetus was a person it couldn't legally use it's mothers body.

Even if a fetus was a person, it would have no right to use it's mothers body against her will. If I needed blood for whatever reason and you were a match, I couldn't force you to donate it to me. Using another persons body for their own needs sounds like a form of rape to me, which is another reason why I'm for abortion.

It's her body, regardless of the reasons behind the pregnancy.

I don't feel that rape statistics can be accurate because, sadly, a lot of rape victims fail to report them. This statistic is a little old, but only 2% of rapists are convicted and imprisoned. Also, in a study of 6000 students at 32 colleges in the USA, only 5% of rape victims reported it to the police while 42% told no one.

Rape isn't the only argument we have, it's only one that supports it.

Excuse the typos...I'm not one to proof read before I hit the post button. lol.
Happyone4 (January 8, 2009 at 2:40 pm)
Also rape/incest accounts for 2% of those who go in to have an abortion...yet millions are done 24-7 all around the world, especially here in America. Rape is the excuse for the Pr0-Choice movement to have abortion on demand when in fact lets face it the majority of those going in to have this proceduce done are those who make a mistake by not using protection or by thinking that protection is always a 100% full proof when it isn't and then they regret their choice.
Happyone4 (January 8, 2009 at 2:32 pm)
Actually they can and do feel pain before month five.3D4D sonograms have helped non-biased research discover this.And pain or not ripping a human's limbs off(that's what abortion is,they dismembers the baby and crushes the skull to remove it)You can see graphic in detail photos of this online when you choose the image option on google and then search for pictures of aborted fetus at 10 weeks,any week really.I just say 10 because most clinics will not do one till you are nine to ten weeks along.

hes only good song

That's the ones who were surveyed, which is not every woman who's had an abortion. And I actually know several women who have had abortions with no family or personal history or depression, clinical or otherwise, and they became depressed within a week of having the abortion.
