[00:00:00] Can It Be(Half A Million Dollars And 18 Months Later) - Murs

[00:00:01] It's been two years man

[00:00:05] Of of of waitin' man

[00:00:10] (Can it be I stayed away too long )

[00:00:13] From my supporters and my fans

[00:00:14] Man I know y'all been waitin'

[00:00:15] Now it's finally here and thank you for your patience

[00:00:18] The world's gone crazy since we last spoke

[00:00:20] Bloodshed and war the absence of hope

[00:00:23] Shootin' at the school economy's a joke

[00:00:25] Homies on heroine homies on coke

[00:00:28] But can you even blame 'em

[00:00:29] When they only tryin' to cope damn

[00:00:31] (Can it be I stayed away too long )

[00:00:33] All these rappers wanna talk about is guns and d**e

[00:00:35] Don't they realize we all at the end of our rope

[00:00:38] The future all depends in the power of our quotes

[00:00:41] The power of a pen the power of a vote

[00:00:43] The power of your words the power of your voice

[00:00:46] The power of America's the freedom of choice

[00:00:49] We choose to do nothin' we lose and we sufferin'

[00:00:51] (Can it be )

[00:00:52] That it's time to do somethin'

[00:00:54] It's not socialism it's not communism

[00:00:56] It's lovin' each other realize there's no difference

[00:00:59] It's positive movement gradual improvement

[00:01:02] When no one else does believe you can do it

[00:01:04] My heart is a speaker I bleed this music

[00:01:07] The beat's in my blood I must transfuse it

[00:01:09] If it wasn't for this yeah I just might lose it damn

[00:01:12] (Can it be I stayed away too long )

[00:01:15] My goddaughters Nadia Simone

[00:01:17] Diana know when not our father's ever comin' home

[00:01:20] Claim by the streets with them other war zone

[00:01:22] Tears in my eyes as I'm writin' this song

[00:01:25] Mommy workin' two jobs tryin' to do it on her own

[00:01:27] No matter where I go or how far I roam

[00:01:30] Know that I love and you'll never be alone

[00:01:32] (Can it be )

[00:01:34] Damn y'all so grown

[00:01:36] And a and a wise man told me man like

[00:01:37] (You don't have to worry 'cause I'm coming)

[00:01:39] Life is like a table full of like glasses of water

[00:01:41] (Back to where I should have always stayed)

[00:01:43] And your job is to keep 'em all full

[00:01:45] You know what I'm sayin'

[00:01:46] So everyone's happy

[00:01:47] (And now I've heard the maybe to your story)

[00:01:47] But at the same time

[00:01:49] You gotta keep your pitcher full of water

[00:01:51] So you could fill everybody else up

[00:01:52] (And it's enough love for me to stay)

[00:01:54] And it's like damn

[00:01:56] (Can it be I stayed away too long )

[00:01:59] From the independent hip hop scene

[00:02:01] Now they talkin' like how I'm not a hip hop fiend

[00:02:03] Needle in my arm can't they see I'm O D 'in

[00:02:06] You'll never take the strife from this triple O G in

[00:02:09] I blaze trails created festivals

[00:02:11] Lost fifty G's on paid dues is that acceptable

[00:02:14] What I'm not down for the cause

[00:02:16] (Can it be )

[00:02:18] Hold on Mike I'ma need a few bars

[00:02:19] I could've done the Nas and scream hip hop is dead

[00:02:22] I got up off my a** and I did somethin' instead

[00:02:24] Signed with the devil brought the scene up a level

[00:02:27] Killed the beast from within I'm a born again rebel

[00:02:29] Tryin' to save the youth from the way of the gun

[00:02:32] And if I only save one then my job is done

[00:02:34] So you can say what you will but you should judge me none

[00:02:37] (Can it be I stayed away too long )

[00:02:40] From my God from my faith as I move place to place

[00:02:42] Times I thought if I could just die it'd be great

[00:02:45] Drop on the spot man I didn't even care

[00:02:47] I stopped talkin' to you I stopped sayin' prayers

[00:02:50] Numb from the liquor and the antidepressants

[00:02:52] Pressure from the label studio stressin'

[00:02:55] Almost lost my passion to pursue this profession

[00:02:58] (Can it be I stayed away too long )

[00:03:00] From myself from my soul when I'm out on the road

[00:03:03] I give so much shout to these kids I don't know

[00:03:06] I thought I lost you with no one to talk to

[00:03:08] But you're the one that open up these doors that I walk through

[00:03:11] I can't fault you only forgive you

[00:03:13] I'm the only one that seen the pain that you been through

[00:03:16] The drama the struggle that built all your issues

[00:03:18] (Can it be I stayed away too long )

[00:03:21] The drama the struggle that built all these issues

[00:03:23] Is all just to make sure they never forget you

[00:03:26] Did I leave your mind when I was gone

[00:03:32] It's not my thing trying to get back

[00:03:37] But this time let me tell you where I'm at
