Live 4 Love (Early Version)

Get going
(Live for love, live for love, live for love)
(Live for love, live for love, live for love)

30,000 feet and still a-counting (live for love)
The attack on my plane is steadily mounting (live for love)
Feel like I could die from my heart a-pounding (live for love)
How can I live for love?
Calling

Live for love
Live for love (calling)
Live for love (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Live for love

Kicked out of my home at 17 (live for love)
Been bounced back and forth
Like a flick on a screen (live for love)
Don't nobody know the trouble I've seen (live for love)
How can I live for love?
I'm calling

Live for love (ooh-ooh)
Live for love (calling)
Live for love (oh-wee-oh)
Live for love (live for love)

(Live for love, live for love, live)
My mission, so they said, was just to drop the bombs
Don't think about the families, the babies, or the moms
Just like I got no conscience, just like I got no qualms
Just like I don't live for love

So here, my target is approaching
The angel on my shoulder starts coaching
Is it the angel of death?
Ah, I take a deep breath
How can I die?
How can I die?
How can I die for love?

Maybe I was better off staying in school (live for love)
But everybody said flying planes was cool (live for love)
It's so easy to say when you're not going through
How can I live for love? (Live for love)
I'm calling

Live for love
Live for love (I'm calling)
Live for love (wooh-ooh-ooh)
Live for love

(Living for love, living for love, living for love)
(Living for love, living for love, living for love)

(Living for love, living for love)
Live for love
Live for love (calling)
Live for love (live for love)
Live for love

Damn, I got hit, but I could still complete the mission (live for love)
I flash upon my own father long ago wishin' (live for love)
Before he died that I would always try (live for love)
Always try to live for love
Today I'm in another place (live for love)
I have another face
My name has been changed to protect my new race (live for love)
The choice you make is vital
So at the end of my recital
I say you got to live for love

(Live for love)
Steady, steady (live, live)
Live for love (live, live)
Live for love (live, live)
Live for love
(Live for love)

Tony (yo)
What we gonna do now?
(Rock to the F-L-O-W)
How?
Just like you're supposed to do (live for love)
Yeah
(Live for love)
NPG in full effect

Live, live
(Live for love)
Live, live (live for love)

The time has come
Forget the fun
I just begun my run
I bring it hard like a loaded gun
I must explain that the forensic is mental
Break it down, let me kick my credentials

Strong-willed since the day I was born
I'm in the flow but I'm far from the norm
And I'm making it
While all my friends are faking it
Wannabes in the hood
They kickin' back, talkin' shit

"He can't do it"
"He ain't nothin'"
"He need to have a hole in a system that's bumpin', fool"
That's what they want you to think
Another punk caught in the bureaucratic

But I ain't havin' it
I work too hard
Hold me down
I just bogart
Statistics show
I got the flow
You say you want some more?
Let's go, y'all
Kick the flow

Live for love
Live for love
Live for love (rock to the F-L-O-W)
Live for love (just like you're supposed to do)

You dare compare, boy
You are unaware
To make it, see, it takes a certain flair
There's some critics, the proudest and few
The ones who try to play me like a well-paid jigaboo
You call me militant

And think that represents a man who speaks his mind
And isn't hesitant
To come correct
In full effect
I give respect
Even if at times, it means my neck

Yet you chastise
And you criticize
But there's one thing you have not yet realized
I got you loopin'
Oops, your lips are droopin'
Ooh, you try to diss me?
You look stupid, boy

But I forgive and forget
It makes me a stronger man
When my time not spent
On the hassle
I just throw a blow and to do that
Yo, it takes the flow

Live for love (rock to the F-L-O-W)
Live for love (just like you're supposed to do)
Live for love (rock to the F-L-O-W)
Live for love (just like you're supposed to do)
