A video of Nick Cannon's powerful pro-life song "Can I Live?" is available online

Rapper Nick Cannon has made the emotionally powerful video of his pro-life song "Can I Live?" available for download free of charge at his website NickCannonMusic.com. Based on his own life, Nick, speaking in the song as the "child who was" in his mother's womb, pleads with her to let him live. He asks her the plaintive question: "Can I live?".

Some of the lyrics can be viewed below and are also referenced in my previous post of June 4, 2005:

"Can I Live"
(feat. Anthony Hamilton)

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
It's the late 70's Huh
You Seventeen huh
And having me that will ruin everything huh
It's alot of angels waiting for their wings
You see me in your sleep so you cant kill your dreams
300 Dollars thats the price of living what?
Mommy I dont like this clinic
Hopefully you'll make the right decision
And dont go through with the Knife Decision
But it's 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 apart of you
Trust Your Soul Know it's always true
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE
I Will Always Be apart of you
Trust Your Soul Know it's always true
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
CAN I LIVE
CAN I LIVE

This song could be very influential in delivering the pro-life message to young people. It can also be easily passed on to others in the form of a
Video E-card.
