"I Can't Help It"

{Chorus} (Mercedes Martinez)
I..I.. I can't help it, I..I.. I can't help it,
I can't help it.. I can't help... I can't help it.. I can't help it
I..I.I.. I can't help it, I..I..I can't help it,
I can't help it.. I can't help it, I can't help it.. I can't help it

(Malik B)

Live with it, thats how i survive with it,
talk jive with, you take dive with it,
connive with it, depart and arrive with it,
harsh thrive thats why its part I with it
I did it, make rhymes in 5 minutes,
mind of a dentist, crimes of the diminished,
press rewind see what you find in my image,
take you nigga's back to that line of a scrimmage,
Riq you know we pull a freak with the flow,
talks cheap thats why we speak with the dough,
ill techniques sure im sleek with the flow,
its cold outside niggas sleep with the snow,
i tweak in the low tone,freak when the o-zone,
i can't help hiding my seat oh its so known,
i only do what got to becuase its possible,
and climbing over whatevers known as an obstacle.

{Chorus}

(Black Thought)

I can't help it, maybe I'm selfish,
maybe the way im running is becoming a hell freeze,
all I can see is smoke from tortoise shells that sell shit
50's I feel like im making a sales pitch,
my head already so heavy its making the scales tip,
i got my own pressure and got everyones elses,
im rehabilitating and still feeling rebellious,
candidate of heart failure more pills than elvis,
in a layer cake, half chocolate half velvet,
im listening to some howe Melvin,
i got so many options theres so many toxins yo,
didn't really tell what we killing ourselves with,
I lit a cigarette and then held it,
im thinking of some rhymes more illa than a threatin illment,
im on some bomb threat in the mail shit,
because of all things i dealt with, nigga I can't help it...

{Chorus}

(Porn)

I never said I'm ready to die, but I accept it,
never said i"m ready for war, but I'm protected,
I don't even know when its coming but I expect it,
lost thoughts innocent hopes an now I'm left with
nervous conditions, addictions, in addition
to prisons that mixed in to the wrong crowd,
My life is on a flight that going down,
My mother had an abortion for the wrong child,
With the time I felt loved, thats gone now,
Thats replaced with purples rays some storm clouds,
Misery love Misery, so why make friends lets make enemies,
An now I got a habit thats wasn't meant for me,
Now im in a marriage that wasn't meant to be,
One more reason to change identity,
The cars, the crime, K's, penalties.

{Chorus}...

I can't help it... I Can't help it
I can't help it... I Can't help it
I.I..I..I can't help it
I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I.I...I can't help it
I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I can't help it.. I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I can't help it.. I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I can't help it
I can't help it
I can't help it
I can't help it
I can't help it.. I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I can't help it.. I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I can't help it.. I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I can't help it.. I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I.I.I..I..I can't help it
I.I.I..I..I can't help it...
