Live Your Life - T.I. Feat. Rihanna

(Rihanna)
You’re gonna be a shining star,
Fancy clothes, fancy car-ars
And then you’ll see, you’re gonna go far
Cause everyone knows, who you are-are

So live your life, ay ay ay
Instead of chasing that paper
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Ain’t got no time for no haters
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
No telling where it’ll take you
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Cause I’m a paper chaser
Just living my life (ay),
My life (oh), my life (ay), my life (oh)
Just living my life (ay),
my life (oh), my life (ay), my life (oh)

(T.I.)
Nevermind what haters say, ignore them ’til they fade away
Amazing they ungreat for after all the games I gave away
Safe to say I paved the way, for you can’t get paid today
You still be wasting days away, nah had I never saved the day
Consider them my protégé, how much I think they should pay
Instead of being gracious, they violated and made you wait
I never been a hater still I love them, yeah I graze the way
Some say they so yay and no they couldn’t even work on Labor day
It aint that they black or white, their hands of area in shades of grey

I’m West side anyway, even if I left the day it fades away
Some move away to make a way not move away cause they afraid
I’ll go back to the hood and all you ever did was hate away
I pray for patience but they make me want to face away
Like I once made them scream, now I could make them plead their case away
Been thuggin’ all my life, can’t say I don’t deserve to take a break
If you ever see me catch a case, and watch my future fade away

(Rihanna)
You’re gonna be a shining star,
Fancy clothes, fancy car-ars
And then you’ll see, you’re gonna go far
Cause everyone knows, who you are-are
So live your life, ay ay ay
Instead of chasing that paper
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Ain’t got no time for no haters
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
No telling where it’ll take you
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Cause I’m a paper chaser
Just living my life

(T.I.)
I’m the opposite of moderate, immaculately polished with the spirit of a hustler and the swagger of a college kid
Allergic to the counterfeit, impartial to the politics
Articulate but still would grab a nigga by the collar quick
Whoever had problems, they reckonsile they just holla ‘tip
If that don’t work and just fails, then turn around and follow ‘tip
I got love for the game but ay I’m not in love with all of it
I do without the fame and the rappers nowadays are comedy
The hootin’ and the hollerin’, back and forth with the argueing
Where you from, who you know, what you make and what kind of car you in
Seems as though you lost sight of whats important with the positive
And checks until your bank account, and you’re about poverted
Your values is a disarrayed, prioritized are horribly
Unhappy with the riches cause you pis-pone morraly
Ignoring all prior advice and fore warning
And we might be full of ourselves all of a sudden aren’t we?

(Rihanna)
You’re gonna be a shining star, fancy clothes, fancy car-ars
And then you’ll see, you’re gonna go far
Cause everyone knows, who you are-are
So live your life, ay ay ay
Instead of chasing that paper
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Ain’t got no time for no haters
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
No telling where it’ll take you
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay
Cause I’m a paper chaser
Just living my life (ay), my life (oh),
My life (ay), my life (oh)
Just living my life (ay), my life (oh),
My life (ay), my life (oh)

So live your life

Awesome lyrics. The music just makes the words seeping so much further.

But the only thing with the lyrics above is this:

“Instead of chasing that paper
Just live your life (Oh!), ay ay ay”

I think it should read: “you steady chasing that paper….” Reason being, a few lines down she sings that she too is a paper chaser. It is a very positive song.

I also think that in T.I.’s first section, instead of “they violated and made you wait”, it should read “they violate in a major way”.

Again, very uplifting and encouraging, trying to find the balance in life and while remaining a realist. Good job Rhianna and T.I.!
