Pro-life Video Could Air On MTV—need Your Vote!!!

I’m no fan of rap by any stretch of the imagination, but a friend on another Pro-Life site told us about this, and I thought I’d pass it on.

Here’s an incredible opportunity to get the pro-life message on MTV. Even if you don’t watch it, millions of young people do and you have the chance to get a video on Total Request Live that shows strongly the pro-life message. It’s already been shown on BET.

It’s called Can I Live by rapper Nick Cannon. The lyrics are down below. It’s a true story about how his mother wanted to abort him, but chose life. The video shows his mother lying in the abortion clinic, next to all the instruments, and Nick pleading (sort of like he’s a spirit) for her not to kill him, saying “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.” In the end, she jumps off the table and runs out of the clinic, with Nick thanking her for the gift of life.

HERE’S WHAT YOU DO! GO TO http://www.mtv.com/onair/trl/vote/
AND SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM, WHERE YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO TYPE “OTHER” VIDEO. SELECT “OTHER” THEN TYPE IN UNDER Artist Name: “Nick Cannon” and UNDER Video Title: “Can I Live”

VOTE AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE (YOU CAN VOTE AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WANT), AND PASS THIS ALONG; WE NEED THOUSANDS OF VOTES TO GET IT IN THE TOP TEN, AND IF WE DO, IT WILL BE AWESOME!

Here are the lyrics:

NICK CANNON (f/ Anthony Hamilton) LYRICS

Can I Live

[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
Its the late 70’s Huh
You seventeen huh
and having me that will ruin everything huh
its alot of angels waiting for their wings
you see me in your sleep, so you can’t kill your dreams
300 dollars that’s the price of living, what?

Mommy, I dont like this clinic
hopefully you’ll make the right decision
and don’t go though with the Knife Decision
but it 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 Will Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE
I Will Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True
If I Could Talk I Would 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 scaring
cause who knows where my future holds

yo the truth be told you ain’t told a soul
yo you ain’t even showing I just 2 moths 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 look at you funny but look at you mommy
thats 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 Will Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True

If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE
I Will Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE[Repeat 2]

[Talking]

Its uplifting for real y’all
I ain’t passing no judgement
ain’t making no decisions
I am just telling ya’ll my story
my love life
I love my mother for giving me life
we all need to appreciate life
a strong women that had to make a sacrifice
Thanks for listening
Thanks for listening
Mama thanks for listening

PLEASE PASS THIS ON AND VOTE!!!!
