He's tellin' me more and more

25 To Life
Yo to my people doing time, Xzibit, Juvenile, y'all need to
(Wake up everybody) Nature, Ja Rule, Reptile come on
bring the heat.
[Xzibit (overlaps)]
Look, I'm inhumane livin' in this house of pain
stuck with a thousand street hustlers
down on they luck
Repeat felons caught up with the death I was sellin'
and for the past three months yo I can still hear my victims yellin'
but I can't listen to my conscience it's nonsense
if I didn't shoot I'd be the nigga in the suit in the box under the ground
fox chased by the hound locked permanent frown Xzibit get down
by liftin' iron by the pound for the tough individual
runnin' run his mouth throw some hands with the General
walk one day in the shoes of a criminal
death disease keep your luxuries to a minimal
I'm not talkin' about weed, jewels, & Bentleys
I'm talkin' about clean clothes, hot food, and Dentyne
see what I mean livin' with the scum of the earth
hit with plenty of time to adjust to life on the inside
[Wyclef] (For every rhyme I write get 25 to Life)
[Juvenile]
You got me fucked up I'm innocent
look I ain't do this shit you don't want to hear my side
but you believin' that bitch
You makin' my nerves bad I need to smoke me a jo'
'cause I know y'all ain't even thinkin' 'bout lettin' me go
Where my lawyer, nigga told me Juv' I can't do nothin' for ya
Y'all go tell that to my mother & my father
but they gon' cus y'all so don't you even bother
you know that shit ain't right that bitch didn't see nothin'
'cause it was dark at night but I guess us blacks
look the same to y'all passin' niggas around like a game of ball
This is my third felony plus my third strike
man I ain't goin' home I got 25 to Life.
(For every rhyme I write get 25 to Life)
QU New York, you try to criticize me I criticize you
been the same muthafucka since in high school
any beat I shed light to with crazy wattage
Blankin' out bought my first eight ball for eighty dollars
learned who not to trust grew obnoxious
so niggas start to hate me same time the boys in blue watch us
circlin' but they don't slow down take you to court
think you seein' Judge Joe Brown they just actin'
Indy's throwin' Tyson back in another year
fuckin' with a nigga's career I cock back at bust in the air
give me space beats with plenty bass drink my Hennessey straight
'til I hurl out third world clout I'll take niggas hearts
and turn killers into girl scouts works of art
Picasso from the Hydro roller-slash-hustler CEO-slash-retired soldier
(For every rhyme I write get 25 to Life)
[Ja Rule]
Kill or be killed behind the wall 40 day short
still the thought of murderer true to the sport
I bang with the best niggas them career criminals
now I'm in with these youngins lookin' to feel me out
Hollerin' 'bout how they gon' hit on me now
Niggas is real wild bangin' before trial
new kicks new trial I don't give a fuck
I'm playin' the yard ox taped to my nuts
ready to self destruct Lord I don't wanna die
but what powered your honor to hit me with 25
I know that real recognize every hustle
and die with these niggas in the struggle
Ya feel me
[Reptile]
Oh God shells loaded in the semi auto quoted
unknown cat never voted picture me on the scene
huntin' for greens like Mike Meyers trick or treatin' on Halloween
mashed down in the fatigues servin' the fiends
kill or be killed metal pipes under the sleeve
in the city slicker bust checks or puff cess
ruffneck love liquor & act figures bloodsport on the streets
no gloves pullin' knives out the 'fridge handin' out cold cuts
ugh streets real thug so recognize thug close yo' eyes thug
you 'bout to die thug!
Call the President I'm blowin' up ya residence
spill acid on the corpse to clear the evidence
Protestors outside screamin' free Gotti
guard your body SWAT teams is waitin' with the shotty
(For every rhyme I write get 25 to Life)
[Wyclef:] Y'all need to (wake up everybody)
[REPEAT]
For all my people doin' time keep your head up
Wyclef Jerry "Wonder" New Millenium new millenium come on

Over my body the shadows played
It wasn't night and it wasn't day
Counting something what have i found
Thirty diamonds in my hand
Thirty miles
The world unfolds
Thirty miles
A pot of gold
I often think of america
I often dream of shooting a gun
Thirty years i'm still a child
Looking for something in a smile
Thirty miles
The world unfolds
Thirty miles
A pot of gold
Listen here in my song
Thirty miles won't be long
Thirty diamonds
Birds of fire
Sparkle like the summer sky
Thirty diamonds
Thirty miles
Looking for something in your smile
I'm looking for something in your smile
I'm looking for something

5 Green Queens & Jean
Before it slipped away
When 5 green queens
On a black bin bag
Meant all the world to me
And I recall the moment
More distant than it seems
When 5 green queens
On a black bin bag
Meant all the world to me
And I recall the moment
Much closer than it seems
When 5 green queens

Meant all the world to me
And I recall the moment
Before it slipped away
When 5 green queens
On a black bin bag
Meant all the world to me

66 Promises
Sixty six promises
Fell from your lips
Sixty six kisses to
Rest on my charred fingertips
And sixty six lovers
To come till i tell
Sixty six postions to take on this
Well-worn trail
Sixty six magicians
Deliver the goods
Documenting our marriage for some
Silent film in hollywood
Is it not what you thought it would be?
Was it not what you wanted it to be
Was i not what you thought i would be?
Was it not what you wanted it to be?
Sixty miles talking
But making no sense
A life out of liberty
And the pursuit of
Happiness
Waiting for something
To smash a few wholes
In the wall of good fortune
And the windows to an
Outer world
And sixty six promises
They came in a kiss
Provided a meaning
Now i see how it reallly is
And it's not what i thought it would be
And it's not what i wanted ti to be
And it's not what i thought it would be
And it's not what i wanted it to be

Yo, engineer, turn me up, yo
I started off in the underground
From mono to stereo now I'm surround sound
Blowin' through your tubes leavin' holes through your speakers
Crackin' through your tweeters my frequency's off the meters
Jam pack arenas from here to Bangkok
I'm ahead of my time like Jimmy Hendrix played Woodstock
Me, I'm playin' Hoodstock before I had the dreadlocks
I used to reminisce should I do music or sell rocks
Grow my own crops livin' in the PJs
That's when an Angel Gabriel, said
"It's all a masquerade eyes wit no face, sneakers wit no lace
I feel the earth spinnin' but I'm standin' in the same space"
Wit no trace of what happened last night
I seen two fiends fightin' over a crack pipe
Now I'm watchin' TV, my antenna was a clothes hanger
Blurry vision Mista Mondehan David Banner
Flip the data the kids are wearin' bandannas
Totin' hammers aimin' at your medulla oblongata
Blow, blow a young thug wit a slim figure
Romantic type like the movie Casablanca
Herb seller once got busted by a undercover buyer
My supplier was a Gypsie cab driver
That's when I realized I need to find a new hustle
Livin' in the jungle the guitar became my muscle
I scribe through snake eyes that wanted my crucified
Y'all thought that I was drownin' but I was getting baptized
Now behold I heard you sold twenty mill
But wit no street credibility you overkill
Y'all ain't real talkin' 'bout keep it gangsta
Only if you knew the gangsta sent me to shank you
Gank you, gank you, tie up your ankles
And if that ain't enough I call hinchmens to lynch you
Now at the funeral I could see the priest bless you
But in the after life I'ma still touch you
Knockin' on Heaven's door you beggin' to get in
That's when the Son of Man greets you wit the face of Satan
Now you look frightened in the belly of the whale
That's when the warden say I wanna welcome you to hell
Bones is five bucks get off the phone, time's up
I seen him cut from his head to his you wish you would wish you could
Wishin' got you here you screamin' so loud that a deaf man could hear
Back to the silence, no more droppin' science
Everybody rappin' 'bout diamonds and violence
And A&R's all they do is charge credit cards
And when the bill comes
They blame it on the rap stars
Now how you figure I ain't rent a car
I wasn't at the spa I ain't buy the bar
Now here's a Jew when you get your first record deal
Don't subject yourself to the mass appeal
First class, caviar in the Anneville
In the new S class wit the Jordan wheels
Remember the music in the streets like the streets
You know the code of the streets
Everybody tryin' to eat yhe evidence is concrete
I'm tired of the same song you take me out
You must be high off of heroine
Sharper than I ever been this one gon' get a ten
Rappers, I'ma murder y'all wit your own medicine
I move with faith, I never have doubt
I'm so hungry you would think I'm just comin' out
But I been here before from Blunted to The Score
To the Carnival, Ecleftic, World Tour
I'm poison whores waitin' in the back door
They want me to rock they boat and shift them on shore
That's when the Father said, "Take heed to this lesson
They wanna cut your hair like Delilah did Samson"
I felt that so I went back to my format
Raps in backpack gats for car jacks
Hats for pussy cats 'cause AIDS I don't want that
And for the DJ's here's somethin' y'all can scratch
Technique twelve the needle hits the wax
Hypnotize the crowd the dance floor's jam packed
Now sing along like a Negro spiritual
No one got shot tonight it's a miracle
But what's this I hear y'all wanna take my spot
You got a better chance puttin' a gorilla in a headlock
I'm too focused I can see through your lens
You ain't a G, just a wannabe kingpin
So, the next time y'all wanna pay for protection
I suggest that you hit up the Haitian Sicilian

911
I serenade the girls with my acoustic guitar
You know what I'm sayin'?
Yo, fellas havin' problems with the chicks?
I want you right now to turn the lights down low
Pull your girl up next to you, I want you to sing this to her
If death comes for me tonight, girl
I want you to know that I love you
And no matter how tough I wouldn't dare
Only to you I would reveal my tears
So tell the police I ain't home tonight
Messin' around with you is gonna get me life
But when I look into your eyes, you're worth that sacrifice
If this is the kind of love that my mom used to warn me about
Man, I'm in trouble, I'm in real big trouble
If this is the kind of love that the old folks used to warn me about
Man, I'm in trouble, I'm in real big trouble
I need y'all to do me a favor
Someone please call 911
(Pick up the phone, yo)
Tell them I just been shot down and the bullet's in my heart
And it's piercin' through my soul
(I'm losin' blood, yo)
Feel my body gettin' cold
Someone please call 911
(Pick up the phone, yo)
The alleged assailant is five foot one
And she shot me through my soul
Feel my body gettin' cold
So cold, sometimes I feel like I'm a prisoner
I think I'm trapped here for a while
(But I'm always right here with you, girl)
And every breath I fight to take
Is as hard as these four walls I wanna break
I told the cops you wasn't here tonight
Messin' around with me is gonna get you life, oh yeah, yeah
But everytime I look into your eyes, then it's worth the sacrifice
If this is the kind of love that my mom used to warn me about
Man, I'm in trouble, I'm in real big trouble
If this is the kind of love that the old folks used to warn me about
Man, I'm in trouble, I'm in real big trouble
You got anything to say, girl?
Someone please call 911, yeah yeah
(Pick up the phone, yo)
Tell them I just got shot down
And it's piercin' through my soul
(I'm losin' blood' yo)
Feel my body gettin' cold
Someone please call 911
(Can you do that for me)
The alleged assailant was five foot one
And she shot me through my soul
(And he shot me through my heart)
Feel my body gettin' cold
(He didn't care, he didn't worry, he didn't wonder)
Wyclef and Mary J. Blige
I'm feelin' you, girl

And you're doin', what you're doin', would you do it
And do it and do it and do it for me

A Dear John Letter
Dear John I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn
And tonight I wed another, dear John
I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me
He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be
'Cause the fighting was all over and the battles have all been won
But then I opened up the letter and that started dear John
Won't you please send back my picture, my husband wants it now
When I tell you who I'm wedding you won't care dear anyhow
And it hurts me so to tell ye that my love for you has gone
But tonight I wed your brother dear John
And tonight I wed another dear John

A Perfect Day Elise
He got lucky, got lucky one time
Hitting with the girl in room five none nine
She turned her back on him facing the frame
Said, "listen joe don't you come here again"
White sun scattered all over the sea
He could think of nothing but her name elise
God is the sweat running down his back
The water soaked her blonde hair black
It's a perfect day
A perfect day, elise
He got burned by the sun
He's a lucky man
His face so pale and his hands so worn
And the sky
Let himself in room five none nine
As she turned away
Said a prayer, pulled the trigger and cried
Tell me why
It's a perfect day
A perfect day, elise
Ah oh, it's a perfect day
A perfect day, elise

A Satisfied Mind
If I had his money I could do things my way
But little they know
That it's so hard to find
One rich man in ten
With a satisfied mind
Once I was wading in fortunes and fame
Everything that I've dreamed for to get a start in life's game
But suddenly it happened
That I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far
With a satisfied mind
Money can't buy-uy back your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely or a love that's grown co-old
The wealthiest person
Is a pauper at times
Compared to the ma-an
With a satisfied mind
When life has ended, my time has run out
My friends and my loved ones, I'll leave them, no doubt
But one thing for certain
When it comes my time
I'll leave this old wor-orld
With a satisfied mind

A Thief in the Night
Darling, our love can never be right
For your ring's on her hand and my heart just can't stand
Stealing love like a thief in the night
Never more shall we meet on some dim-litted street
Darling, two wrongs just don't make a right
So I'm sending you home for I just can't go on
Stealing love like a thief in the night
Never more shall we meet on some dim-litted street
Darling, two wrongs just don't make a right
So I'm sending you home for I just can't go on
Stealing love like a thief in the night

Your open mouth, run your open mouth
Close your open mouth, close your open mouth
Sun blacks out, sky blacks out
Sun blacks out, sky blacks out
Sun blacks out, sky blacks out
Sun blacks out, sky blacks out

Don't plan on standing under the falling sky
So pointless, [Incomprehensible] so pointless to fall, fall, fall
Please believe what you see
And what you hear and what you love, you love
Sun blacks out, sky blacks out
Sun blacks out, sky blacks out
Sun blacks out, sky blacks out

Your names are indications in red blood
Your names are indications in red blood

Act Like a Married Man
Well, I don't care a thing about you're kind of running 'round
The town will go unpainted if you depend on me
I don't intend to wreck my life with a man who isn't free
You've got a good wife at home you know she's never been untrue
She's got the whole world of fate and fast and competence in you
How you can be unfaithful I just can't understand
Now why don't you go home to your wife and act like a married man
Well I suppose you wonder why I say the things I say
Well it's because I'm making plans to have a home someday
I want to be a good wife and never be untrue
And I don't want my man to be a cheater such as you
You've got a good wife

Affair [DVD]
Am I your woman, are you my man?
Could it be love or just a fling?
Maybe your body, it agrees with me
Affair, I don't need commitment
I don't need a man to tell me how to feel
Affair, I don't want a promise
All I really need is to be close to you
I want respect and I'll state my case
'Cause, baby, I won't take
All your loveliness in my face
So hear me loud and clear
Don't matter if you flirt
As long as you're discreet
And make sure nobody's hurt like me
Affair, I don't need commitment
I don't need a man to tell me how to feel
Affair, I don't want a promise
All I really need is to be close to you
Affair, I don't need commitment
I don't need a man to tell me how to feel
Affair, I don't want a promise
All I really need is to be close to you

Ain't No Way
If you won't let me
It ain't no way for me to give you all you need
If you won't let me give all of me
I know that a woman's duty
Is to help and love a man
And that's the way it was for me
Oh, but how can I, how can I, how can I
Give you all the things I can
If you're tying both of my hands
Oh, it ain't no way
(Ain't no way)
It ain't no way
(Ain't no way)
It just ain't no way, baby
(Ain't no way)
Ain't no way, baby
(Ain't no way)
It ain't no way for me to love you
If you won't let me
Stop trying to be someone you're not
Hard, cold and cruel is a man
Who payed too much for what he got
And if you need me to love you
Say, say, yeah, you do
Oh then, baby, baby, don't you know that I need you
Oh, it ain't no way
I tell you that it ain't no way
It ain't no way, it ain't no way, baby, no
It just ain't no way, it sure ain't no way
It ain't no way for me to love you
If you won't let me
No way, if you won't let me
There ain't no way

Ain't Nobody's Business If I Do
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
Ain't nobody's business what I do
If I should take a notion
Well I go right down and jump in the ocean
And it ain't nobody's business what I do
Nobody's business what I do
One day we got ham and bacon
The next day people ain't nothin' shakin'
Ain't nobody's business, whoo, what I do
Nobody's business what I do
Me and my man fuss and fight
The next day people we all right
Ain't nobody's business what I do
Nobody's business what I do
One day I'm goin' crazy
Get me a shotgun and shoot my baby
Ain't nobody's business, I said it ain't nobody's business
Lord it ain't nobody's business, hey!, what I do
It ain't nobody's business what I do
Nobody's!

Airplane blues
I say my man's a pilot on the Birmingham airplane line
When he comes to see me, my man sure comes a flying
I know that my flying man ain't true to me
I know that my flying man ain't true to me
But he's as true as any man can be
He takes me flying, flying, right up to the sky
He takes me flying, flying, right up to the sky
When I'm riding with my man, lord, he rides me so high
First he turns me over then he starts to loop the loop
First he turns me over then he starts to loop the loop
Takes a long long time till his whoops begin to droop
He flies me slow, he flies me fast
And I'm hoping, I'm praying he don't run out of gas
So if he ain't true, there's nothing I'm gonna say
Cause I ain't gonna let him burn that good flight away

All Your Jeans Were Too Tight
So much that I wanna do
It startin to become so clear to me
Tomorrow ain't really what it seems
So many days I've thought of you
It's about time u knew the truth
Got to act quickly, you and I
We fall in love, so many reasons why
Why don't we (so why don't we), don't we
why don't we, why don't we (yeah)
Why don't we, why don't we fall in love (why don't we fall in love)
(It's so many reasons)
(It's the only thing that matters to me)
Why don't we fall in love
It takes such a load off to let you know
That your the only one I never want to go
Think I never did know what to do
A love I never felt, now I feel you
Why don't I just swallow each and every ounce of my pride
Everything you do I wanna feel again
Ain't no use for us to pretend
Why don't we, don't we (Why can't we)
Why don't we (Why can't we), why don't we (Why can't we)
Why don't we, why don't we fall in love (We, can't we fall)
Why don't we, why don't we (Yeah, yeah)
Why don't we, why don't we fall in love (Oh)
Why (Yeah)
Come with me
Tomorrow we're guaranteed love
Baby, let's be
Baby, let's be
Why don't we, why don't we
Why don't we, why don't we fall in love
Why don't we, why don't we (Oh)
Why don't we, why don't we fall in love
Oh...oh...

Amber Jean
Every morning got sun to shine
Every day got plenty of time
Every night there's a moon so fine
There for you, my amber jean.
Still some lines that should get crossed
Still some coins that might be tossed
Still some love that hasn't been lost
There for you, my amber jean.
Amber jean, oh, amber jean,
Prettiest eyes i've ever seen.
Every morning got sun to shine
Every day got plenty of time
Every night there's a moon so fine
There for you, my amber jean.

Angel In Blue Jeans
I felt that she melted all my bitterness away
You always tried so hard to hide your wings behind your coat
So let it be and let them free
So you can't hoover low above the ground
You look so tired you've got moonbeams in your eyes
And if I believed I know you'd be the first to fly
You always tried so hard to hide your wings behind your coat
So let it be and let them free
So you can't hoover low above the ground
I'll find sunshine sometime soon
How can I miss anything about you
When I don't even know what your name is
I feel like I know you as well as I know the sun
So please tell me where is my sunshine now
I'll find sunshine sometime soon
How can I miss anything about you
When I don't even know what your name is
I feel like I know you as well as I know the sun
So please tell me where is my sunshine now
How can I miss anything about you
When I don't even know what your name is
I feel like I know you
As well as I know the sun
And I wonder where is my sunshine now

Angelene
My first name angelene
Prettiest mess you've ever seen
Love for money is my sin
Any man calls i'll let him in
Rose is my colour and white
Pretty mouth, and green my eyes
I see men come and go
But there'll be one who will collect my soul
And come to me
Two thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two thousand miles away
It lays open like a road
Dear god, life ain't kind
People gettin born then dying
But i've heard there's joy untold
Lays open like a road in front of me
Two thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two thousand miles away
Lays open like a road
It seems so far away
I see men come and go
Two thousand miles until i reach that open road
My first name's angelene

{Lil' Mo] Yeaaaaaaaaaaayyyy!!!
[Angie M] Uh, woo! come on, uh
[Lil' Mo] If I can go, with you
[Angie M] Yo, yo, uh
[Verse 1: Angie Martinez]
If I can chose a place to go it gotta be far away
From here we could crossover like Hardaway
Somewhere outside the states where tommorow's like today
And I'm out in a space where nobody else can stay
And, if I can go, with you
Then I'll go get the ticket right now if that's cool
Have you ever been close to feelin like leavin the coast too
Feelin like leavin with somebody who
Hold you the right way while watchin the night fade
Make you feel like you right back in the ninth grade
When you know what he likes and what he might say
And you try to be calm and answer in nice ways
And, if I can go, with you
Way out the states no 2 ways and no page
No cells and no trace, and you just a phone call away
So all I got to say is
[Chorus: Lil' Mo]
If I can go, contigo, I'll pack my things, soon as you say
Baby vamos, we'll fly away, like there is no, no tomorrow
If can go, contigo, I'll tell my friends, nothing at all
I'll get my things, soon as you say, baby vamos, we'll fly away
[Verse 2: Sacario]
And, if I can go, with you
Oh boy we 'bout to make a lot of people annoyed
And cry you better know I know how to sneak with them toys
And boy with the block since around 94 boy
And, if I can flow, with you
Huggin Tato after the studio I roll with you
I send Dutch and three other goons to go get you
Sacario the name hold weights the whole issue
Grown men keep on cryin get mo' tissue
The way me and this girl be rhymin it's so official
Them I'm takin a trip too with no pistols
Cause everything peace only sand no streets
Little Miami Heat that's the plan we'll see
Two cups, one in Senado one in Sand Beach
And, I'll think I'll go, with you
So tell the station you need a week back to you
[Chorus: Lil' Mo]
If I can go, contigo, I'll pack my things, soon as you say
Baby vamos, we'll fly away, like there is no, no tomorrow
If can go, contigo, I'll tell my friends, nothing at all
I'll get my things, soon as you say, baby vamos, we'll fly away
[Bridge: Lil' Mo]
You can fly away, no one has to know
Will you take me with you, cause if I can go
Soon as you say the word, we'll be on our way
To a foreign place, you got to tell me
[Angie Martinez]
Yo, uh, so now that we got a plan are you comin? We could plan a week
The only question now is LaGuardia or Kennedy?
[Sacario]
And a seat, know why? the window cause I like to see
And seein as to how I'm so fly me and the clouds can speak
[Angie & Sacario]
And, since we 'bout to go, in a few
[Sacario]
Go 'head
[Angie Martinez]
Oh, I just wanted to tell Trace thank you
That week off I'm grateful what was you tryin to say boo?
[Sacario]
Nuttin just grab my chain off the table and 2 way too
[Angie Martinez]
Ok, that little place it's a great move
But ain't no problems, unless the water don't stay blue
[Sacario]
And the shop's there?
[Angie Martinez]
If they don't got em, they don't make em
([Sacario:] True!)
No concrete just sand, throw away your shoes
Now, that we are on, our way
And our bags is packed and the car service is not late
Everything's ok, so I guess I catch you on the next track
Now I don't gotta ask
[Chorus: Lil' Mo]
If I can go, contigo, I'll pack my things, soon as you say
Baby vamos, we'll fly away, like there is no, no tomorrow
If I can go, contigo, I'll tell my friends, nothing at all

If I can go, contigo, I'll pack my things, soon as you say
Baby vamos, we'll fly way, like there is no, no tomorrow
And if I can go, contigo, I'll tell my friends, nothing at all
Nothing at all, I'll tell my friends, nothing at all...

Anything Can Happen
Intro:
I got the skully to my face (hardcore)
I got the skully to my face (hardcore)
cause anything can happen at the Carnival
(Yo make room, make room, make room, MAKE ROOM, make room)
You can't stop the shining
Yo, don't slip Mike
You don't want to go there is all, trust me
I know your girl wit you, but you don't want to get embarassed
Trust me
Chorus:
Yo, when you're rolling to the Carnival, anything can happen
What, what, say what, say what, anything can happen
Making love to your girlfriend, anything can happen
What? Say what, say what, anything can happen
She's sleepin wit your best friend cause anything can happen
Wh-a-at? Say what, say what, anything can happen
You roll down the block, come back with your gat
and POW, cause anything can happen
Verse One:
Feel this composition, it's a brand new dub
First thing I did, was went to the pub
Tequila with worm, lemon, salt, and no rocks
Cause when it hits my chest -- it gots to be hot
Uh haha, stop, 'Clef can I rock, yo
Get out the bathroom, let me go again from the top
Feel this composition, I wrote it in the tub
First thing I did, was went to the pub
Tequila with worm, lemon, salt, and no rocks
Cause when it hits my chest -- it gots to be hot
Ahhh, stop, 'Clef can I rock
I'd like to give a shout out to my people on the block
For you Silly Willy playin thug cartoon
My infrared scope got your movements on zoom
Boom new toon, write songs in my room
Sleeping with the bride, even though I ain't the groom
Your husband assume, come back with his goons
Put me in the trunk on your way to your honeymoon
Radio my platoon, Wyclef to Sev'
'I hear them playing Elvis, they on they way to Graceland
But they don't scare me, I'm in the trunk, I ain't sorry
Natural born killer, who slept with the enemy'
Think quick, what should I do, what did double-oh-seven do?
I pulled a bomb from my shoe (hahahahaha)
And exploded the trunk (blaooww) I woke up half drunk
Over looked by a bunch of gypsies wit a bag of skunk
Chorus:
You got the skully to your face, star, anything can happen
What, what, say what, say what, anything can happen
Sellin crack in the corner, man, anything can happen
What? Say what, say what anything can happen
I just got laid off, anything can happen
What, what, say what, say what, anything can happen
You don't wanna go there, cause anything can happen
What, what, say what, say what, anything can happen
Verse Two:
Aiyyo, anything can happen, you can't stop the shining
You lookin at my watch, but my mind's really the diamond
Nine to the Seven, you better off steppin
When I'm writin with my pen, it turns into a lethal weapon (Ding!)
Take this lesson, to your next session
I suggest, you practice with the freshman
Sophomore, junior, then come check the senior
By then I would have graduated from the school of ruckus
Wyclef and Jerry Wonder, last of the producers
If the royalty ain't right, I put a call to Donny Eina
But always stay humble went from bummy to neat
Cause money break groups up like the Five Heartbeats
Don't get souped cause you, pushin a Coupe
Next year you on foot, runnin from a lawsuit
For example, I know I'm nice, I don't front it
Least anticipated, to the most wanted
Yeah, that's me in the spotlight
With a mic and a guitar, like M.O.P., I like it raw
Chorus:
Yo, when you're rollin to the Carnival, anything can happen
What, what, say what, say what, anything can happen
Every man got disciples, anything can happen
What, what, say what, say what, anything can happen
Its all about survival man, anything can happen
Hah, say what, say what, anything can happen
You lookin at me wrong, man, anything can happen
What, what, say what, say what, anything can happen
Will the Knicks win the championship this year?
Say what, say what, anything can happen
Will we find some peace of mind this year?
Say what, say what, anything can happen
You ready for the revolution this year?
Say what, say what, anything can happen
Will you make love with no condom this year?
No no, no no, that will never happen
The record is not over yet
The record is not over yet
The record is not over yet
Where the ladies at? Put yo' hands in the air!
And for the ladies, we won't play you
If you proud, shake what yo mama gave you, hey!
Whether your fat or slim, bubble your ting
Fellas if you need help, use ginseng
And for the ladies, we won't play you
If you fat, shake what yo mama gave you, hey!
Whether your fat or slim, bubble your ting
ReFugee thugs hang at the roller rink
Roller skatin baby
Carnival (Make room, for the Carnival, make room)
And it don't, nine-seven to infinity
Rest in Peace, Rest in Peace
And the record is not over yet, the record is not over yet
It is not, the record (fades out)

Apocalypse
Intro:
Yeah, I was looking out my window
when i heard this sound
look up into the sky
saw the moon turned to blood
looked at my little brother
said, 'you high as hell maaan'
Chorus:
Apocalypse..
1,2 the headlines youths just rolled through
Apocalypse..
3,4 solder, 100 horsemen at your door
Apocalypse..
5,6 you wanted dead or alive, hit or miss
We we y'all, yeah, we we y'all
Verse One:
Arrival of the Carnival
New beats, I never recycle
While your looking for samples
You might get trampled
Surprise, hey
I'm back with lightning and thunder
I heard you over saying that i was a one year wonder
You dumb or some, i went to refugees
Silly felony, when i'm done
Collect royalty from record company's
Clouds getting darker
Suns getting nearer
I'll turn a atheist into a god fearing believer
The back of a building
Your body's found by children
Playin' hide go seek
All we found was his skeleton
In the back of a car
You spawned with the wrong guard
You know my empire strikes back hard
Listen hard, war
This is the day after action
Projects, cannons
Being launched at the palace
Vision, revelation
Sky know apocalypse
Enemy pilots kamikaze into the abyss
Chorus:
Apocalypse..
1,2 the headlines youths just rolled through
Apocalypse..
3,4 solder, 100 horsemen at your door
Apocalypse..
5,6 you wanted dead or alive, hit or miss
We we y'all, yeah, we we y'all, yeah, we we y'all
Verse Two:
Aiyyo, Back on earth
The party is in the tunnel
On the west side of the river
Went mad quiver
Rats get fed to the alligator
Gun blast equivalent to the bombs in pearl harbor
Rescue choppers broke the turn to hiroshima
I'm driving to jersey to escape the terror
I was on the highway pushing a black viper
A car pulls up, is he a jack or a sniper (sniper)
A blue range rover, he says pull over
I didn't know he was a DT undercover
I screamed out my lungs
This is discrimination!
He tried, he said you just robbed a gas station
Who me? not me! it couldn't be
I was in the Grammys with Brandy
Didn't you see me on tv?
Bullshit, yall all in the same game
He tried to run me off the road
Like he was rosco, rico or dre
I stayed calm, gave him a hell of a show
Cause when its time to go
All i gotta press is turbo
Heard it on his walkie, road block on 280 west
Things got serious, that's when i bust a left
U-Turn, my eyes burned
My concern was a truck coming
Head on collision within a chase position
Close one, i almost went up in a blaze
Running from what appears to be a masquerade
Least that what i thought, it was all in my mind
Reality stuck when i got to the borderline
The headline reads every ghettos sad story
A rookie shoots a boy over mistaken identity...
(crash)
Chorus repeat (2X)

As Close As This
With those eyes
You could be
In movies
In the lights
Nothing gets as close as this
With those eyes
Just a breath
Can send me back
To bethlehem
Nothing gets as close as this
I'm hopelessly devoted
This world's alive
This room awake
With tiger's palms and rattlesnakes
And nothing gets as close as this
I'm hopelessly devoted
Every bird
Is on the wing
You fill the air
You're everything
Make me run screaming
Down the wind
Hopelessly
In love again
And nothing gets as close as this
I'm hopelessly devoted
Nothing gets as close as this
I'm hopelessly devoted

Get me harder, harder, harder, harder, harder

Back Side of Dallas
On a wornout stool she sits
And her trembling hand thumbles for another
Kingsize filter cigarette
She blows a puff of smoke then settles back
And look across that light blue haze
And from the back side of Dallas her mind goes
Driftin' back to other days
Meet me in Dallas on June, the 23rd, his letter read
On the greyhound of this big town she
Came to be with him just like he said
Then suddenly he left her for reasons
That she still don't understand
And on the back side of Dallas
A girl must turn her way as best as she can
It's a long way to Dallas for a small town girl
From the middle of Tennessee
A tenth grade education won't get you
No kinda job here in big D hunger pains
And prides are things that just don't go hand in hand
For long
And on the back side of Dallas
A hungry small town girl can't find a home
On the back side of Dallas nervously she takes another pill
On the back side of Dallas tonight like other nights
She drinks her fill
She pays the man behind the bar
And leave the change for twenty dollar
Bill If you're ever feelin' lonesome, man
You want to find someone who feels the same
She's on the back side of Dallas
Where every taxi driver knows her name
She's on the back side of Dallas where
Every taxi driver knows her name

Back To Hers
Why couldn't common sense leave us alone
Is it love or is it loss that pulls us on
Just what do you have I don't have at home
Time has took its toll on us again
We've come all the way from lovers back to friends
Everything we have must be so much
You've gone all the way from my arms back to hers
[ steel ]
Time has took its toll on us again...
We've come all the way from lovers back to friends

Back To School
I walk along the river where we used to come and skate
The trees're now all gone and by the river there's a sign
Trespassin' is a twenty dollar fine
Lookin' up the road toward the schoolhouse on the hill
That thing about an empty building causes me to chill
My memory goes back to when the teacher rang the bell
The day she sent you home for saying hell
Walkin' past the building so important in my past
The road is full of ol' discarded bottles and some trash
I step behind the building as I shelter from the cold
I see our names in letters big and bold
My fingers trace the letters of a work of art alone
And I recall the day that you carved it in a stone
Somehow I can see you now with books and coat in hand
You always waved as down the hill you ran
Cokes were just a nickel then and many were the times
The two of us would sip them as if they were village wine
And then on Graduation Day we bought the little ring
And said that carats didn't mean a thing
Now I retrace my footsteps to the cab that waits for me
Looking back to see our names you carved upon a tree
The driver says I look familiar asks me what's my name
I say hurry I have to catch a plane

Bayonetwork
With eyes rolled back
It came with smiles, it came with gestures
And it came with motives
Investing flowers in one hand
And a blade in the other
This is between me
And this blade and my heart
Distributing rusty knives
In these countless attractive letters
With a directional diagram of a guilty heart
'Insert knife here'
Lack of thought on this subject
Has attested catastrophic
Come one, come all, introduce knife to heart
With our eyes rolled back

Beautiful Feeling
Sometimes i can see for miles
Through water and fire
From england to america
I feel life meet my eyes
And it's the best thing
It's the best thing
It's the best thing
A beautiful feeling
A smile from san diego
He is still a boy
Two ends to every rainbow
And a train from mexico
And he's the best thing
He's the best thing
He's the best thing
A beautiful feeling
And when i watch you move
And i can't think straight
And i am silenced
And i can't think straight
And it's the best thing
It's the best thing
The best thing
Such a beautiful feeling

Beyond The Blue Horizon
Blow, whistle blow away,
Blow away the past.
Go engine anywhere.
I don't care how fast.
On, on from darkness into dawn,
>From rain into the rainbow,
Fly with me.
Gone, gone all my grief and woe.
What matter where I go if I am free?
(refrain)
Beyone the blue horizon
Waits a beautiful day.
Goodbye to things that bore me.
Joy is waiting for me.
I see a new horizon.
My life has only begun.
Beyond the blue horizon lies a rising sun.

Big Exit
Look out ahead
See danger come
I want a pistol
I want a gun
I'm scared baby
I wanna run
This world's crazy
Give me the gun
Baby baby
Ain't it true ?
I'm immortal
When i'm with you
But i want a pistol
In my hand
And i want to go to
A different land
I met a man
He told me straight
"you gotta leave
It's getting late
Too many cops
Too many guns
All trying to do something
No one else has done"
Baby baby
Ain't it true ?
I'm immortal when i'm with you
But i want a pistol
In my hand
And i want to go to
A different land
Sometimes it rains so hard
And i feel the hurt
In my heart
Feels like the end of the world
I see the children
Sharp as knives
I see the children
Dead and alives
Beautiful people
Beautiful girls
I just feel like it's the end of the world
I walk on concrete
I walk on sand
But i can't find
A safe place to stand
I'm scared baby
I wanna run
This world's crazy
Give me the gun
Baby baby
Ain't it true ?
I'm immortal
When i'm with you
But i want a pistol
In my hand
I want to go to
A different land

I said don't mind, but what do you mean i am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
She said i am the one who will dance on the floor in the round
2nd verse
She told me her name was billie jean, as she caused a scene
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
Bridge
People always told me be careful of what you do
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
And mother always told me be careful of who you love
And be careful of what you do 'cause the lie becomes the truth
Chorus
Billie jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that i am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says i am the one, but the kid is not my son
3rd verse
For forty days and forty nights
The law was on her side
But who can stand when she's in demand
Her schemes and plans
'cause we danced on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice
(do think twice)
4th verse
She told my baby,we where dancing still 3:00
Then she looked at me, she show me a photo
My baby cried, 'cause his eyes where like mine
Bridge
People always told me be careful of what you do
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
She came and stood right by me
Then the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon
She called me to her room
Chorus
Billie jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that i am the one
But the kid is not my son
Billie jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that i am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says i am the one, but the kid is not my son
She says i am the one, but the kid is not my son
Billie jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that i am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says i am the one, but the kid is not my son
She says i am the one, she says he is my son
She says i am the one
Billie jean is not my lover
Billie jean is not my lover
Billie jean is not my lover
Billie jean is not my lover
Billie jean is not my lover
Billie jean is not my lover

Black Girl Pain (w. Jean Grae)
"Black Girl Pain"
(feat. Jean Grae)
[Talib Kweli]
I do it for the people, I do it for the love
I do it for the poet, I do it for the thug
This is for victory, and this is for the slaughter
I do it for my mother, I do it for my daughter
Promise I'll always love ya, I love to kiss and hug ya
You and your brother should be lookin out for one another
I'm so blessed, man, y'all the reason I got up
Somebody put his hands on you I'm gettin locked up
I'm not playin, that's the prayer I'm sayin for Diani
And if I die then she'll be protected by Amani
That's her bigger brother and I love the way he love her
She a girly-girl, she love to imitate her mother
But she a Gemini, so stay on her friendly side
She'll put that look on you, it's like somebody' friend just died
My pretty black princess smell sweet like that incense
That you buy at the bookstore supporting black business
Teach her what black is; the fact is her parents are thorough
She four reading Cornrows by Camille Yarborough
I keep her hair braided, bought her a black Barbie
I keep her mind free; she ain't no black zombie
This is for Aisha, this is for Kashera
This is for Khadijah scared to look up in the mirror
I see the picture clearer thru the stain on the frame
She got a black girl name, she livin black girl pain
This is for Makeba, and for my mamacita
What's really good, ma? I'll be your promise-keeper
I see the picture clearer thru the stain on the frame
She got a black girl name, she livin black girl pain
[Hook]
My mama said life would be so hard
Growin up days as a black girl scarred
In so many ways though we've come so far
They just know the name they don't know the pain
So please hold your heads up high
Don't be ashamed of yourself know I
Will carry it forth til the day I die
They just know the name they don't know the pain black girl
[Jean Grae]
This is for Beatrice Bertha Benjamin who gave birth to
Tsidi Azeeda for Lavender Hill for Kyalisha
ALTHLONE, Mitchells Plain, Swazi girls I'm reppin for thee
Mannesburg, Guguletu where you'd just be blessed to get thru
For beauty shinin thru like the sun at the highest noon
From the top of the cable car at Table Mountain; I am you
Girls with the skyest blue of eyes and the darkest skin
For Cape Colored allied for realizing we're African
For all my cousins back home, the strength of mommy's backbone
The length of which she went for raising, sacrificing her own
The pain of not reflecting the range of our complexions
For rubber pellet scars on Auntie Elna's back I march
Fist raised caramel shinin in all our glory
For Mauritius, St, Helena; my blood is a million stories
Winnie for Joan and for Edie, for Norma, Leslie, Ndidi
For Auntie Betty, for Melanie; all the same family
Fiona, Jo Burg, complex of mixed girls
For surviving thru every lie they put into us now
The world is yours and I swear I will stand focused
Black girls, raise up your hands; the world should clap for us
[Hook]
My mama said life would be so hard
Growin up days as a black girl scarred
In so many ways though we've come so far
They just know the name they don't know the pain
So please hold your heads up high
Don't be ashamed of yourself know I
Will carry it forth til the day I die
They just know the name they don't know the pain black girl

Black Smith
Backed away from this call.
Watching your eyes deeply widen.
Impressed with you, impress with me.
Perish the thoughts of last words.
Everything was new.
I have proved that I am yours.
You're still waiting.
I am yours.
Staring at you through my hands.
I am already yours.
Watching as you walked away.
You were always a "someday".
Things change and things change.
I'm still here again.
I've proved that I am yours.
And you're still waiting.
Bury my eyes into this Life.
Still pressed for the price...

So where's the whip you driven?
Where's the condo and the dough?
Boy, you know, you lyin'

Sorry I blew your cover

Blonde Hair, Blue Jeans
Blonde hair, blue jeans, best thing I've ever seen,
She looks great, she feels good, lives in my neighbourhood,
And when she walks past my house she brings me to my knees,
It's like a long dark shadow falling over me; I'm talking 'bout
Blonde hair, blue jeans, she haunts me in my dreams
I wake up, I fall down, I'm lost in what I've found,
Because she lies beside me and whispers in my ear, please, please,
And when I start to kiss her she just disappears;
I'm gonna be where I wanna be,
That's holding her right next to me,
I'm gonna get her in my life, anyway at all; I'm talking 'bout
Blonde hair, blue jeans, best thing I've ever seen,
We're so right, we're skintight, and I'll be with her tonight,
I'm gonna bring her up and take her on the floor,
And when the morning comes then she's gonna beg for more,
I'm talking 'bout, blonde hair, blue jeans,
I'm talking 'bout, I'm talking 'bout,
Blonde hair, blue jeans.

Blood Is Thicker Than Wather
Yo, I'm rollin with the wise guys
you don't wanna testify
I thought it was a movie till they paid me off in jury duty
I can't front the check came in handy
cuz my baby mother stressin me like Edith did Archie
they welcomed me into the family
bought me a Porsche and a crib out in Jersey
I told my moms she wasn't thrilled
she told me they like mad lions son, they shoot to kill
and leave your body on the hill
massacre similar to what happened in Amityville
I'm sittin back with a fifth
reminiscing on who I miss
slidin the family stone in the cd disc
(Chorus)
It's a family affair (X4)
Blood is thicker than water
The feds got me under pressure, yeah
They say I might not see sunlight again
Unless I snitch on my mans
and that won't happen, no no
(Chorus)
They want me to go undercover
They want me to wear a wire too
It'll never happen
Cause I can't see
Me going against my family tree
It's a family affair
(Chorus)
By the time you get this letter
I hope that you're in good health, mom
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to do you wrong
I know you raised me
In the ways of righteousness
And this is gonna be the last time I do a bit
I want out now
He laughed and said, Please Hee Hee
You can check out but you can't leave
I'll cut you up in so many pieces 'Clef
That even if I sent your mom the instruction
She couldn't put you back together
4-5 ways to be circumsized
Times stand still when the murders on the rise
Any last words
Give my regard to Tony Soprano

Blue Jean
I've been riding this train tryin' to see you again
Blue Jean, where have you been? In this song I sing
You're all torn and you're frayed and you're starting to fade and we said
"Blue Jean, what's happening? What have you seen you poor old thing?"
Blue Jean, where have you been? In this song I sing
I spent 30 damn days sleeping on this damn train
Blue Jean, where have you been? In this song I sing
You're all torn and you're frayed and you're starting to fade and we said
"Blue Jean, what's happening? What have you seen you poor old thing?"
Blue Jean, where have you been? In this song I sing
I've been wracking my brain to remember your face
Blue Jean, where have you been? In this song I sing
I'm all torn and I'm frayed and I'm starting to fade and we said
"Blue Jean, what's happening? What have you seen you poor old thing?"

Blues Stay Away from Me
Blues why don't you let me be
Don't know why you keep on haunting me
Love was never meant for me
True love was never meant for me
Seems somehow we never can agree
Life is full of misery, dreams are like a memory
Bringing back your love that used to be
Tears so many I can't see
Years don't mean a thing to me
Time goes by and still I can't be free
Time goes by and still I can't be free
Time goes by and still I can't be free

Bobby Jean
Well i came by your house the other day, your mother said you went away
She said there was nothing that i could have done
There was nothing nobody could say
Me and you we've known each other ever since we were sixteen
I wished i would have known i wished i could have called you
Just to say goodbye bobby jean
Now you hung with me when all the others turned away turned up their noise
We liked the same music we liked the same bands we liked the same clothes
We told each other that we were the wildest, the wildest things we'd ever
Seen
Now i wished you would have told me i wished i could have talked to you
Just to say goodbye bobby jean
Now we went walking in the rain talking about the pain from the world we hid
Now there ain't nobody nowhere nohow gonna ever understand me the way you did
Maybe you'll be out there on that road somewhere
In some bus or train traveling along
In some motel room there'll be a radio playing
And you'll hear me sing this song
Well if you do you'll know i'm thinking of you and all the miles in between
And i'm just calling one last time not to change your mind
But just to say i miss you baby, good luck goodbye, bobby jean

Bonnie & Clyde

You've heard the story of jesse james

If you're still in need of something to read and find
Here's the story of bonnie & clyde.
It is
Clyde had a petite amie
She's beautiful her name is bonnie
Together they had left the st?? arrow
The gang to b.parker and c.barrow
Bonnie and clyde
Bonnie and clyde
I've known clyde since he was young and care free
He was always ?? and bright and clean
For he must see the ?? society
Who drove me to a life of crime and misery
Bonnie and clyde
Bonnie and clyde
The newspapers ...
They said we play for cold bloody pleasure
That's not true but ....
To shot first and ask the questions later
Bonnie and clyde
Bonnie and clyde
If a ... killed in ...
And they have no suspect they can blame
For the police there's nothing mysterious
They hang on clyde barrow and his mistress
Bonnie and clyde
Bonnie and clyde
There's no .... to try to sit it down
To find a new house and quite down
By the third day there's a tac tac tac tac
Of machine gun who's making sneak attack
Bonnie and clyde
Bonnie and clyde
One of these days they will take enough
But i just hope that bonnie will survive
No i don't mind how they make me pay
Bonnie ... away
Bonnie and clyde

... that is no end
... to die

And they died bonnie parker and clyde barrow

Born to lose
Every dream has only brought me pain
All my life I've always been so blue
Born to lose, and now I'm losing you
Born to lose, it seems so hard to bear
How I long to always have you near
You've grown tired and now you say we're through
Born to lose, and now I'm losing you
Born to lose, my every hope is gone
It's so hard to face an empty dawn
You were all the happiness I knew
Born to lose, and now I'm losing you
There's no use to dream of happiness
All I see is only loneliness
All my life, I've always been so blue
Born to lose, and now I'm losing you

Brand New Blues
Cause my old blues don't fit no more
I tried on a brand new blues,
Cause my old blues don't fit no more
I changed my way of living,
Ain't nothing like it was before
I got a new disposition
Got me a new routine
Got a new disposition
Got me a new routine
I got me a brand new washer
To keep my laundry clean, keep my laundry clean
- solos -
I bought me a brand new hatchet,
Cut down my weeping willow tree
I bought me a brand new hatchet,
Cut down my weeping willow tree
No more bending over backwards,
No more bitter tear for me
I ain't gonna be no playgirl,
Don't need no diamond ring
Ain't gonna be no playgirl,
Don't need no diamond ring
Just give me plenty room people
To try my brand new everything
Just give me plenty room
To try my brand new everything

Break My Mind
That you've changed your mind
Let me run on out and tell the cab to keep his meter flyin'
'Cause if you say goodbye to me, babe
You're gonna break my mind
Break my mind, break my mind
No, I just can't stand to hear them big jet engines whine
Break my mind, break my mind, oh, Lord
If you leave, you're gonna leave a babblin' fool behind
Baby, oh, baby, please take your suitcase off of the scales in time
Tell the man that you've suddenly developed a thing about flyin'
'Cause if you say goodbye to me, baby
You're gonna break my mind
Break my mind, break my mind
No, I just can't stand to hear them big jet engines whine
Break my mind, break my mind, oh, Lord

Bright Lights and Country Music
I won't stay home and cry tonight like all the nights before
I've just learned that I don't really need you anymore
I found a little place downtown where guys like me can go
And they've got bright lights and country music
Bright lights and country music, a bottle and a glass
Soon I'll be forgetting that there ever was a past
And when everybody ask me what helped me forget so fast
I'll say, "Bright lights and country music"
A table by the bandstand, a bottle filled with wine
Honky tonks were made for men with women on their minds
Nothing else can take away this loneliness of mine
Quite like bright lights and country music
Bright lights and country music, a bottle and a glass
Soon I'll be forgetting that there ever was a past
And when everybody ask me what helped me forget so fast
I'll say, "Bright lights and country music"
'Cause I love those bright lights and country music

Green eyes
He called me magdalene
So much my eyes have seen
Cleopatra
Would have wept for these of green
I watch the people leave
I walk this sorry town
When i saw him first
He was looking down
He called me magdalene
My sea queen
But he would not look
Into these eyes of green
When we were there alone
No one else around
When i returned to him
He was still looking down
I came, i witnessed
Followed, found
Returned, returned
He's still looking down
Still looking down
And the people leave
Leave this girl
Leave this girl
Leave this town
And still he dares
Dares not look at me
He's drawing circles in the ground

Bubblegoose
Intro: (1st half sung, 2nd half spoken)
When I was young, Mama played a guitar
A microphone and she said I'd go far
She said, 'Just keep all the lyrics hardcore'
Listen to my talk and get up, I'm on the corner with my...
Hey kids, gather around, it's Wyclef and Melky Sedeck
I got a story to tell, heeeeeeere we go
Chorus: (sung)
Sit right back and hear a tale of a hustler 'round my way
He used to clock around the block from where my grandma stayed
Black BMW with rims to match, windows bulletproof
One night, he jumped out the car
and caught a bullet in his bubblegoose
He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose
He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose
You can be at the party gettin' loose
But you can catch a bullet in your bubblegoose
Verse 1:
Hey yo, hey yo, my pen's in my hand, what should I write next?
Oh yeah, and if you don't know, success brings stress
I'm vexed, my phone rings, collect call from Jeff
The operator say, 'If you accept, say yes'
'Yes, what's the deal, son?'
'Yo, I got bad news'
Yo, by the tone of his voice, I heard the ill street blues
'The friends will make you, then too can break you
They plan an execution like Fu Man Chu'
'Who?'
'You know the character from channel 5 kung-fu (wahoo)'
'Slow down, man, Jeff, I'm losin' you'
'Hey yo, your cousin Rohann...'
'Uh-huh'
'Who used to sell bang'
'Uh-huh'
'DT's found his hand in the back of Binnigans...'
'What?'
'In a plastic bag with a note attached'
'Saying what?'
'A million and a half or he won't be back'
'So meet me by the Brooklyn Bridge, 12:00 sharp'
'If not, at the funeral, you gotta play the harp'
Yo, why they wanna start and make me play my part?
Don't they know like Sting, I can turn this murder into art?
I jumped into my car, there's gotta be a joke
Traffic's backed up, who's in town, the Pope?
S-s-s-s-someone blew the horn, I turned and looked left
To my surprise, it was my sis, Melky Sedeck
Repeat chorus
Verse 2:
You're shootin' in the opposite position
I'm thiniin', 'Should I fire or hold back on ammunition
On your wig transition?'
My mission, like Take 6, is to spread love
But all you screwed mugs got me wearin' black gloves
You up in my face, I see the fear in your eyes
You wanna feel the pain like a grown man gettin' circumcised
Shalom, shalom, pardon my left
But my right hand's on your throat, massaging you to death
You provoke the cycle, call Michael
You're lookin' in the mirror, well, I'm in your window, oh oh
You hear me Urkel, your blood will turn purple
Like the colour, you holler, ballin' for your mother
No-one hears you even though you knock
You used to walk around the block with the daily rock
Things done changed since your spark got hot
Now you got your knot wocked with your very own glock
Chorus 2:
Sit right back and hear a tale of a hustler 'round my way
He used to clock around the block from where my grandma stayed
Black BMW with rims to match, windows bulletproof
One night, he jumped out the car
and caught a bullet in his bubblegoose
He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose
He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose
You can be witcha girl gettin' loose
But you can catch a bullet in your goose
He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose
He caught a bullet in his bubblegoose
You can be at the party gettin' loose
But you can catch a bullet in your goose

Alright this is gonna be a search
Everybody put your hands where I can see 'em
Smells funny in here, what you're lookin' at boy

C'mon billy
Come to me
You know i'm waiting
I love you endlessly
C'mon billy
You're the only one
Don't you think it's time now
You met your only son ?

Lover's play
The car was cold and
We lay in it for days
I remember
The things you said
My little billy,
Come to your lover's bed
Come home
Is my plea
Your home now is
Here with me
Come home
To your son
Ttomorrow might never come
C'mon billy
You look good to me
How many nights now

Damn thing went crazy
But i swear you're the only one
Come along, billy, now come to me x7
Come along, and come to me.

Can U?
Heading out feeling finger licking
All freshed up, ready for touching
I'm your little chula straight out of Brooklyn
What's the play, ain't smoking some days?
We had a lot of fun last time we parlayed
Check it, swoop through, so I can see you
Check the back lift the mat, no clue, what I'ma do to you?
Can u, can u come see me tonight? Why?
'Cause I've been thinking about you all day
My parents are gone and I'm all alone
So won't you come, swing my way?
Can u, can u come see me tonight? Why?
'Cause I've been thinking about you all day
My parents are gone and I'm all alone
So won't you come, swing my way?
Dim the lights, light the candles relaxing
Smell real good, ready for maxing
If the cards play right never know what could happen
Stay game tight, got no time for slacking
Me and you first time we're alone
And around our friends only talk on the phone
And come on through 'cause I like your stylo
I'm fit to tip, we'll do whatever you wanna do
Can u, can u come see me tonight? Why?
'Cause I've been thinking about you all day
My parents are gone and I'm all alone
So won't you come, swing my way?
Can u, can u come see me tonight? Why?
'Cause I've been thinking about you all day
My parents are gone and I'm all alone
So won't you come, swing my way?
No problem momma cite, you want it, I'll cum and 'G' you
As soon as I move dis reup the times free'ah to see you
Fly-hood in you neighborhood, heavy Chevy reamed up
Is neck pinky heavy prezzle bezzie gem'd up?
White on white air ones, all on your mommas lawn
Fitted bent low, no one knows who I'm creepin' on
What you seek find Quan learn why they call me don?
While fiend'n for me to move forward like my name Lebron
And when it comes to cardz playin' the hand ain't nothin'
I'm a dealer most of deez otha dudez just frontin'
And you could learn something when we build together
And if you act right I might sing a song to make ya feel better
Can u, can u come see me tonight? Why?
'Cause I've been thinking about you all day
My parents are gone and I'm all alone
So won't you come, swing my way?
Can u, can u come see me tonight? Why?
'Cause I've been thinking about you all day
My parents are gone and I'm all alone
So won't you come, swing my way?
Can u, can u come see me tonight? Why?
'Cause I've been thinking about you all day
My parents are gone and I'm all alone
So won't you come, swing my way?

Candle in the Wind (Good-Bye, Norma Jean)
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They said you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name
It seems to me you've lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend never did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh, the press still hounded you
All that papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
It seems to me you've lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
Goodbye Norma Jean
From a young man in the twenty second row
Who sees you as something more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
It seems to me you've lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
I would have liked to have known you
Oh, but I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Caravan
Took the time to touch, to share
Worlds apart the night we met
We braved the odds and won the bet
Not perfect yet
But close enough for love
How old-fashioned, pure romance
We shared a kiss, we shared the dance
We shared the body and bouquet
And we'll taste the wine another day
When you and I
Are close enough for love
Not just lovers, more than friends
Who knows where one starts and one ends
Tracing lights through sleepless nights
That I'll remember always, always
Long goodbyes and tearful looks
Hold up well in poems and in books
But you and I have life to hold
The greatest story never told
Not perfect yet
But close enough for love

You've murdered my thinking
Gave you my heart
You left the thing stinking
I'd shake from your spell

The ground you tread under
I envy the wind
Your hair riding over

Your head rests and slumbers

Envy your lover

I damn to hell every second you breath
'til the light shines on me

Your hair riding over

Your head rests and slumbers

Envy your lover

Hang your hair over your shoulder
And you can hear the four wind blow
Why can't you hear the wind blow my love?
Can't you hear the wind blow?
We're down in the valley

When I held the baby you so tight, now
How could I ever let you go, now

Words with no echo, this is an unfair architecture
And my fists surrender to my emotion
Canceling each other's experience
With the intimidating sound of our voices
Truth is the method of defense
Passion cries out from our fiery blaze of words
They make monuments and we make no progress
We could build a mansion with our million dollar
Dollar words, dollar words, dollar words, dollar words
Canceling each other's experience
With the intimidating sound of our voices
Truth is the method of defense, defense
Of our voices, truth is the method of defense
Passion cries out from our fiery words
Blaze of words, blaze of words
Our blaze of words, blaze of words

Cheated (R&B Remix Instrumental)
Led Zepplin couldn't be here with you tonight
But we got Wyclef Jean in the house tonight
Yo, I woke up on the other side of the bed
Tune into my rock station and someone say
'Hip-hoppers can't play rock and roll', huh
I cheated on you, you cheated on me
And this is not the way that things are supposed to be
So tell me girl, is this for real or just an illusion?
I pinch myself to make sure that Wyclef ain't dreamin'
By the time you here this song, it'll be number 1 on your radio
You'll be drivin' from the beach
And your boyfriend will say, 'Turn it down real low'
You punch up the sun roof
And you roll down the window, slam that pedal to the floor
Watchin' the what's wrong [unverified]
Shes havin' a good jour [unverified] It said, 'Love don't let me no more'

I pinch myself to make sure that Wyclef ain't dreamin'
I don't know much about philosophy
Play though, all I rest I know [unverified]
All I know, when I met you, in the streets, the air wasn't so cold
It's like my whole world just changed
I'm like a ball with no chain, ground myself on the A-train
Reality struck me, how could you love me
When you slept with another man?
I cheated on you, you cheated on me
And this is not the way that things are supposed to be

Thugs in the dance, no shootin', shootin', shootin'
[Hook:]
I cheated on you, you cheated on me
(to all the girls I cheated on before)
And this is not the way it's supposed to be
(It's a new year, I got a new change of gear, I swear)
So tell me girl, are you for real are you still down
I'm telling you, I have no time to fool around
(to all the girls I cheated on before)
[Wyclef:]
Hey yo, dear queen, by the the time you get this letter
It's 4 pages but my name ain't Aaliyah, what?
I don't know much about biology or chemistry
failed the SAT's, study Brooklyn Zoo-ology
Remember me, Wyclef, the memory
ectasy with no theory of manoghany
"To be or not to be", last words from Shakespeare
But a package says I wanna get rich with no fear
A few good men in the new millineam
Women got a new law, if you cheat you're a dead man
so I been dead like 100 times
Ask Cyndi Lauper, she'll tell you time after time
Like a virgin when I hit it for the very first time
She became a nymphomaniac and wanted it all the time
A thin line between love and lust
She mistake me for the rapper when I said "Can-I-Bus?"
[Hook:]
I cheated on you, you cheated on me
(to all the girls I cheated on before)
And this is not the way it's supposed to be
(It's a new year, I got a new change of gear, I swear)
So tell me girl, are you for real are you still down
I'm telling you, I have no time to fool around
(to all the guys I cheated on before)
[Queen Pen:]
Yo, I checked for you since I was straight up strugglin'
Before your cousin Jerry put you on, when you was nothin'
So why you play me like I don't know jack ish
('Cause like K-Solo, your mom's in my business)
Now who you wanna play loco to mine
Feelin' kinda twisted, heard through the grapevine
that I'm doin' my thing, more more waiting
(I swear) Many a years and many a tears
I use chose remix to make it quite clear
that he came in when you didn't want to be there
and I fell victim to this one night affair
by the time weeks came you was already there
And still I come home just looking at you
See I'm feeling kinda guilty but revengeful too
All the dirt you done done, you don't know a clue
Why I don't sex you no more, and that's not coo'
[Hook:]
I cheated on you, you cheated on me
(to all the guys I cheated on before)
And this is not the way it's supposed to be
(It's a new year, I got a new change of gear, I swear)
So tell me girl, are you for real are you still down
I'm telling you, I have no time to fool around
(let me sum this all up)
[Wyclef:]
Yo, yo, yo, and yo from the college dorm and til the dusk is dawn
I never felt cold until I lost one
Don't let go like EnVogue chocked on
Clash of the titans, now I'm on my unicorn
I left New Jerus, I'm on my way to Brook-lawn
Someone hit my bumper, I turned around and saw Sharon
Got surprised because I saw little Shawn
in the passenger seat with a bottle of Dom
Remain calm, called Cocren on the horn
Salaam, call up the chief 'cause a murder 'bout to go on
What the bomb, bomb, but this ain't a reggea song
It's like a old flick "Godzilla Versus King Kong"
If you saw the movie than you know what's gonna happen
West coat, down south, back to Manhattan
Like Vanessa from "Soul Food" when she came at night, B
Thank God it was a dream 'cause I woke up with my wifey
[Hook:]
I cheated on you, you cheated on me
(to all the girls I cheated on before)
And this is not the way it's supposed to be
(It's a new year, I got a new change of gear, I swear)
So tell me girl, are you for real are you still down
I'm telling you, I have no time to fool around

(Yes, we have to jack it up)
I see it in your eyes
(Yes, we have to jack it up)
You'll be alright tonight
To all the girls I cheated on before, it's a new year
Hey yo, dear queen, by the time you get this letter
It's four pages but my name ain't Aaliyah
I don't know much about biology or chemistry
Failed the S.A.T.'s, study Brooklyn zoology
Remember me, Wyclef the memory
Ecstasy with no theory of manoghany
To be or not to be, last words from Shakespeare
But a package says, I wanna get the bitch with no fear
A few good men in a new millennium
Woman got a new law, if you cheat you're a dead man
So I've been dead like 100 times
Ask Cyndi Lauper, she'll tell you time after time
She became an infomaniac, wanted it all the time
A thin line between love and lust
She mistake me for the rapper when I said Canibus
Chickenhead
(Jack it up, jack it up)
Hey yo, what's your prize tonight
(Yes, we have to jack it up)
I see it in your eyes
(Yes, we have to jack it up)
You'll be alright tonight
To all the girls, I cheated on before
Spragga Benz, where're you at, where're you at
Chickenhead in a di bed, I feel dead, I feel dead
We have to jack it up, jack it up, keep up your head
Chickenhead in a di bed, I feel dead, I feel dead
We have to jack it up, jack it up, jack it up, yo
See my gal she a gimme a hug each day I come
Each an hour, understand, now she be on the bum
Wake up in di morning, all she know we are alone
Each day I cheat on a chickenhead I figure on
Bust it, man I go chill, me called a gal you wanna kill
She have faith, she have di skill, I know she want it she will
Gimme the right, a me remember, me have to come back for November
But the gal fe mi calendar forget that be the day
Chickenhead in a di beb, I feel dead, I feel dead
We have to jack it up, jack it up, keep up your head
Chickenhead in a di bed, I feel dead, Ifeel dead
We have to jack it up, jack it up, jack it up, jack it up

(Jack it up, jack it up)
Hey yo, what's your prize tonight
(Yes, we have to jack it up)
I see it in your eyes

You'll be alright tonight
To all the girls I cheated on before, it's a new year
Yo, yo, from the college dorm, until dusk is dawn
I never felt cold until I lost one, don't let go like En Vogue chocked on
Clash of the titans, now I'm in my unicorn
I left New Jerus', I'm on my way to Brooklawn
Someone hit my bumper, I turned around and saw Sharon
Got surprised because I saw little Shawn
In the passenger seat with a bottle of dom
Remain calm, called Cocren on the horn
Salaam, warm up the jeep, 'cause a murder about to go on
What the bomb bomb but this ain't a reggae song
It's like a old flick, Godzilla vs King Kong
If you saw the movie than you know what's gonna happen
Down South, west coast, than back to Manhattan
Like Vanessa from 'Soul food' when she came at night
Thank God it was a dream cause I woke up with my wife
Chickenhead
(Jack it up, jack it up)
Hey yo, what's your prize tonight
(Yes, we have to jack it up)
I see it in your eyes
(Yes, we have to jack it up)
You'll be alright tonight
Thugs around the world, yo
Ah, put your lighter in the air, right, right
Put your lighter in the air, right, right
Put your lighter in the air, right, right
Salaam Remi, Wyclef Jean, Spragga Benz
Nobody's safe no more
Lock your door, chickenheads on the loose
Ooh aah, I'm out

Good night, good night, good night

Cigarettes and Coffee Blues
And I won't go too bad at all, I'll just lay there and weep
Instead I'll make our favorite spot, that's what I think I'll do
I've got those smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee blues
Smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee all night long
Wondering how the love so right could suddenly go wrong
I'd grab the next bus out of town but I've got to be near you
I've got those smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee blues
Sitting at the table where we carved our names
Wondering how our love went wrong, wondering who's to blame
Listening to the jukebox plays the song that makes me blue
Another cup of coffee and a cigarette or two
Smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee all night long
Wondering how the love so right could suddenly go wrong
A lot of 'bout the people know the miseries I go through
I've got those smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee blues

No joy, no tears
Darling, time's changed

Please see through my eyes
Save your tears for the next who dies
I shout but he don't hear

Class Reunion
You come home from the ATM
Oh yeah
Monica you ready? Oh yeah
Man she look so good
Rollin' through the hood
God bless the dead
Jerry Wonder knock on wood
She was a ghetto queen, yeah
Turned into a fiend, yeah
Night I heard her scream
She [Incomprehensible]
To a nightmare dream, oh yeah
She was mine, she was pop
She was hip, she was hot
She was too fly, butterfly
It was her time, her time
It was her time, her time
So much dope on the streets
That I'm prayin' for peace
But the poor gotta eat
Talkin' 'bout my time
Everybody say it's my time, oh yeah
Baby girl, the world is yours, just look through
That open door, I'll be there for you
If you ever feelin' blue, it's a beautiful world
Baby boy, the world is yours, when you're sad
I'll be your joy, I'm still your friend
And I'm a love you till the end
Said, he looks so real'
When he was runnin' on the football field
I love the cheerleader scream his name
Even in B-ball he had game
But didn't show up at the class reunion
That's when I asked one of my girls what happened
That's when they told me he got life in prison
Caught up in the system, tryin' to be a kingpin
The story never ever ends
He was mine, he was fine
He was hip, he was hot
He was too fly, butterfly
It was his time, it was his time
Oh why, oh why, oh why
So much dope on the streets
And I'm prayin' for peace
But the poor gotta eat
Talkin' 'bout my time, my time
Everybody say my time, oh why
Baby boy, the world is yours, when you're sad
I'll be your joy, I'm still your friend
And I'm a love you till the end, it's a beautiful world
Baby girl, the world is yours, just look through
That open door, I'll be there for you
If you ever feelin' blue, it's a beautiful world
And I don't know much about English class
Math I didn't pass, biology and chemistry
Was all a dream to me, I patiently wait for the bell
So I can see you after class but now it's all in my past
She was mine, she was pop
She was hip, she was hot
She was too fly, butterfly
It was her time, her time
It was her time, her time
So much dope on the streets
That I'm prayin' for peace
But the poor gotta eat
They're talkin' 'bout my time
Everybody say it's my time, oh yeah
Baby girl, the world is yours, just look through
That open door, I'll be there for you
If you ever feelin' blue it's a beautiful world
Baby boy, the world is yours, when you're sad
I'll be your joy, I'm still your friend
And I'm a love you till the end
Baby girl, the world is yours, just look through
That open door, I'll be there for you
If you ever feelin' blue it's a beautiful world
Baby boy, the world is yours, when you're sad
I'll be your joy, I'm still your friend
And I'm a love you till the end
She was mine, she was pop
She was hip, she was hot

Closing Arguments
In closing, ladies and gentlemen of the jury
I'm not gonna sit here and bore you with a long, drawn out story
or excuse, of why I think Wyclef is guilty
I'm gonna stand by the exhibits as well as the tapes
And songs such as Jeapordy, Til Novemeber, All the Girls,
and Bubblegoose, which stand side by side with my allegations
I rest my case
OK, uhh, ladiessss, and gentle-men, of the juwy
As you can see nuttin has been proven here today
DEEZ witnesses dey brought ere don't not have evidence
to incriminate my client eh?
If he's not guilty he's innocent
If he's not detrimental to the society therefore he positive!
As I say before, dis case is pure bishop
Your honor see, this, this is exactly what I'm talkin about
I mean I've been meaning to ask this the whole time
Who the hell is Bishop?
Eh?
And and why the hell hasn't he been brought on the stand?
Bishop, bishop, not true, false, bishop
Ohh, bullshit!

They rest on the coast and the tide is impending
We pull at the motionless and static
But the torrent has crowned their heads
It fills their ears and it makes them ill
They, they do not struggle at all
This will speak of the end and will not prove false
And it's the time to move on with the weapons of faith and love
Faith and love and faith and love and
Synchronize your steps to the sound of guns, yeah
Synchronize your steps to the sound of guns
This world is damned to hell and it's a revelation
This is a shallow grave
[Incomprehensible]
It's on the highest rise, we stand on its highest crest
I'll set myself on fire, come on, watch me burn
Come on, watch me burn, come on, watch me burn
Come on, watch me burn, come on, watch me burn
Poisoned now enough to kill, poisoned now
Poisoned now enough to kill ten hundred men
Poisoned, poisoned
Synchronize your steps to the sound of guns, yeah
Synchronize your steps to the sound of guns

( the family cat )
Pour yourself into a drink
It's what you think
I don't have anything to say at all
A funny mess, don't you agree
Just you and me
I don't have anything to do at all
Shall we go out tonight
Will that be alright
Shall we search for our fortune and fame
For oil on peaceful waters
Always stings the same
So just stab me in the back
And call me lover
For nothing now can ever be the same
We'll swap stories of past conquests
We'll tell each other lies
And i'll try so hard to shoulder all the blame
Shall we go out tonight
Will that be alright
Shall we search for our fortune and fame
For oil on peaceful waters
Always stings the same

Creating Something Out Of Nothing, Only To Destroy It
Your eyes, your concrete eyes.
Cross crisscross my path...
Walking in circular patterns.
Shoe shine your ammo, polish your metal.
I need not your wicked weapons.
My war is not with someone like you.
A string of blood that is not my own strings between.
Increase time and it will fall into place.
A sword and my heart.
So much so that it makes its way through my throat giving me thought to speak.
This becomes my pistol.
This becomes my dagger of my time.
Don't sell out
It all comes to.
This becomes your future.
Unseen war.
Your weapons are useless.
Drop the gun.
Golden gun.
Like bringing a knive to a gun fight.

Creepin' Jean
You're not leaving so descreet,
Just creeping out on me.
Your dizzy head, and smoky eyes,
You'll find some other's bed to sleep.
So don't look back, it is too late,
No story to be told.
This creepin' mess you left for me,
Promising that you'd be home.
You don't know what i mean,
Creepin' jean's a disease.
You don't know what i mean,
Creepin' jean's a disease.
You don't know what i mean,
Creepin' jean's a disease.
You don't know what i mean,
Creepin' jean's a disease.
Your dirty friends and underwear,
Keep hanging 'round my room.
The lonely pictures that you paint
Are creepin' to their doom.
So don't look back it is too late,
No story to be told.
These creepin' friends you left for me,
Saying your promise to be home.
You don't know what i mean,
Creepin' jean's a disease.
You don't know what i mean,
Creepin' jean's a disease.
You don't know what i mean,

Moving with her style and ease
And you see her, from across the room
Yes it's love in the third degree
Ooh, baby baby
Won't you turn your love my way?

She's on fire, 'cause dancin' gets her hotter

Cutoff Jeans
The sound of her bare feet walkin' 'round the room
I'm gettin' over the taste of her lipstick
Her fingers all up in my hair and other little tricks
I'm doing alright with most everything
But I still got a problem with those cutoff jeans
And that's what's driving me crazy
She been driving me crazy, driving me crazy
I'm gettin' over those 'come and get me' eyes
And how she got me going with those little moans and signs
I'm gettin' over all the things she used to do
And thinking less about those late night rendezvouses
I'm doing alright with most everything
But I still got a problem with those cutoff jeans
And that's what's driving me crazy
She been driving me crazy, driving me crazy
Doctor, doctor, doctor, can you help me out?
Something in those cutoff jeans
Is keeping me in doubt
And that's what's driving me crazy, driving me crazy

You still gon be found in a ditch
My name should be Robin Banks the way I be robbin banks
I'm a fiend for the S-500 I want it
Used to stay high and blunted, but all that had to stop
Chick like me be chasin after cops
And they don't stop at my block after the Diallo shootin
Soldiers in waitin, marksmen recruitin
Salutin, thug confederates, rhyme and reason
Time and treatin, Air Force One we leavin
Panama red, holdin 52 hands for ransom
My man Johnny Handsome, itchin to cancel 'em
I'm like hold up, wait a minute, let's get down to buisness
We could shoot up everything soon as the deal is finished
Blah, blah, I got two hours to kill
We want like 5 mil in a private jet so peel
[Supreme C]
Supreme C been after mean figures, ask my lil nigga
Since back in the days, before he was raised
Aint nobody puttin fear in my heart, who need a jumpstart
My art sharp, shoot your posse apart
Nigga take you on one by one, gun by gun
Son by son, done by done
Whoever come murder fest, one of the best
I'm gettin assets, collect ass bets, squat by your address
I come to kick it wit you, walk beans stickin wit you
Why try to hide from accomplice vibe
Yo we break bread, break heads, my people shake feds
Gamble and scramble, F what your man do
It's all about this husltin game, muscle and fame
Tussels in rain, take aim, blush you with game
My language is unexplainable, switch, changeable
And I stay remaindable, with bigger guns aimed at you
HOOK
[Hope]
I run up in Da Cypha heavily armed with endless bars of metaphoric harm
A python with poisonous charm, extending my arm
Pushing figures way to the back
Out of your reach, excessive like Fatal Attract
Freeze, a renegade bar stroke, an ace of spades
I'll kiss you wit a blade when I think I'm gettin played
Made woman, you never in bed with the same woman
You say you want it, you don't wanna see the omen
When my sixth sense start flowin I bless like holy water
I don't wanna die cuz I'm my daddy's only daughter
But yo, sometimes I see the writin on the wall
You know the ghetto testaments, the shootouts, the brawls
Close frames in the hall, will you stand or will you fall
Your whole click is on the run now would you tell it all
About the night shifters, me, I'ma cypher drifter
My sixteen bars is up so peace to the mixes
HOOK 2X
[Wyclef]
October 31st I was standing by the sour
These thugs don't wanna talk they want these Pumas I just bought
Fresh outta school, picked on cuz I'm bilingual
I barely spoke English but the gun language was universal
Ran in the grocery store, spoke to Gabriel
He said, you have problems, here's a feezy from Israel
Ran back outside, just before I could say... another homicide
Threw the biscuit in the bushes runnin like Jesse Owens
Police showed up, but I was nowhere in existence
Back in the crib thinkin bout what I just did
I'ma police of defense but I'm bound to catch this bid
My hypothesis was right, they knocked the door, homie
Like a super in the projects wantin rent money
Just when I thought I get my life straight in the states
Is when I found myself climbin down the fire escape
Bodies found in Virginia under the dumpsters, no
18 shell cases in front of the grocery sto'
Flee the scene of the crime before y'all kick the door
No your honor that must be some old rhyme that I wrote
And lyrics sometime man they misinterpretate it
For example when I say gun I mean my pen and paper
And everytime I wave and spit the crowd jump
Cuz I'm still Digital Underground like "humpty hump"
Feel the funk comin through your elephant trunks
I aint even *Kriss Kross* my clothes yet
And yet y'all wanna "Jump, Jump" in Da Cypha, "Jump, Jump"
You in Da Cypha
HOOK
OUTRO:
Stay in the house when you hear
WooWooWooWooWoo
It means the murder's outside you hear
WooWooWooWooWoo
Where the real killers at you hear
WooWooWooWooWoo
Honey who chill with the gats you hear
WooWooWooWooWoo
Yo don't talk crap man
WooWooWooWooWoo
Just cuz your girl's wit you man
WooWooWooWooWoo
Cuz both o y'all gon go man
WooWooWooWooWoo
To a place where no man knows man

Daddy
I'm sure you heard about my daddy [daddy, daddy, daddy]
This one goes out for anybody that lost somebody [daddy, daddy, daddy]
Be strong
[Daddy, daddy, daddy]
Now I understand what Scarface ment when he said
I'd never seen a man cry
til I'd seen a man die
Never in my deepest thoughts that I would imagine
I would be the one carry a coffin
Yo, I feel like an orphan
Even though I got a mom
I'm the first born, so I gotta play strong
Memories of the past why would we cry, while we laugh
You make it hard dad, for me to finish right this paragraph
I'll remember while we all shove snow
Frost bites and all temperature 40 below
You used to call me lazy cause I said is was too cold
But you would go in the crib, fix me a fresh cup of coco
I can't front I wish there was a sequel of the Sixt Sense
So I can see dead people
I'm so hurt dad, I can't cry no more
But I know that you're knockin' on heaven's door
Peace
[Daddy, daddy, daddy]
Rest in peace dad
[Daddy, daddy, daddy]
For my people live on (live on, live on, live on, live on)
[Daddy, daddy, daddy]
Rest in peace dad
[Daddy, daddy, daddy] [ooohhh yeah]
Uh
Lookin' to my eyes
Realize I'm the same man my father was
You all can tell about my pink cadillac
The way I clean my rock
[?]
But what I love most was when the [?]
[?] in this reality
keep the right mentality
don't fall in the vanity
sometimes I feel like you standin' watching over me
Whisperin' in my ear: "Baby boy, I'm still here";
I heard em said I'm the shadow right beside you
and if it come feel son, I'm there to guide you
and even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I fear no evil
for the Lord is with me
But don't forget that your mom is in your hand
you two are so close
that I finally understand
and here's a message to your brothers and your sisters
I'mma missin' no matter what, I'mma be with them
Peace
[Daddy, daddy, daddy]
To my dad rest in peace
[Daddy, daddy, daddy]
I guess I see you at the resurrection
[Daddy, daddy, daddy]
To all my people that lost somebody
[Daddy, daddy, daddy]
But the light is in the air
[Daddy, daddy, daddy] [oh daddy, oh daddy]
[Daddy, daddy, daddy] [oooohhh yeaa, I need you daddy]
[Daddy, daddy, daddy] [oooohhh]
[Daddy, daddy, daddy] [daddy]

Dance Like This
I ain't come to fight tonight
Too many ladies up in here tonight
(Everybody report to the dance floor please! Grab a girl!)
[Wyclef:]
I never really knew that you could dance like this
She makes her man wanna speak spanish
Como se llama, Bonita? Mi casa, Su casa
[Claudette:]
The way you move, you've got me hypnotized
Especially when I look into his eyes
Hey Papi, I wanna see you do the dance to the conga
[Wyclef:]
Hey girl, I can see your body movin' and it's driving me crazy
And I did not have the slighest idea until I saw you dancin'
The way you walk up on the dance floor
Noobody could ignore the way you move your body, girl
And everything so unexpected the way you right and left it
So you could keep on digging it

Dance Little Jean
And I wished that I could've told the bride and groom
Just what I think of marriage
And what’s in store after their honeymoon
And I was grumblin’ to the dancers
’Bout how men and women ought to live apart
And how a promise never made can not be broken
And can never break your heart
Then suddenly from out of nowhere
A little girl came dancing ’cross the floor
And all her crinolines were billowing
Beneath the skirt of calico that she wore
And oh what a joy fell on the honored guests
As each of them was drawn inside her dream
And they laughed and stomped and clapped their hands
And hollered at her dance little Jean
And they said dance, little Jean, this day is for you
Two people you love, stood up and said I do
Dance little Jean, the prayer that you had
Was answered today your mama’s marrying your dad
Well, my cynical heart just melted
’Cause I figured what this get together meant
How it ended year of tears and sad confusion
That the little girl had spent
And they told the band to pack it up
About the time the couple cut the cake
But we played as long as they stayed
For love and laughs and little Jeanie’s sake
And we played dance, little Jean, this day is for you
Two people you love, stood up and said I do
Dance little Jean, the prayer that you had was answered today
Your mama’s marrying your dad
It was answered today
Your mama’s marrying your dad

Perfuming the air wherever she blooms
With her silk and her incense
Harmonising hotel rooms
Dark-eyed blue jean angel
Red Egyptian hair
Dark-eyed blue jean angel
Watch the people stare
I bought you lace and velvet
And Victoriana trinket
Dressed you up in Art Nouveau
When nobody else kink it

Let loose your henna braid
Fuzz your hair out wild

Dear Jean (I'm Nervous)
Can I appeal to your better nature?
I'm not the boy I was a week or two ago.
I lost my head halfway through your lecture,
I blew a fuse but how were you to know
Dear Jean
You should report this bizarre behaviour
Puff out your rosy reds, and blow me away
One little smile you could be my saviour
I'd be teacher's pet if you asked me to stay
Dear Jean
I nearly died when I first set eyes on your fulsome fig
Even your teeth are geometry, on your lobes I linger
Each night mother Moon sees me stealing by your ro
I can hear you breathing,
I close my eyes, there's a tingle in my thigh,
are those fingers teasing
I'm nervous, he's nervous, I'm nervous, silly me.
He's nervous, I'm nervous, he's nervous, so tell me,
Dear Jean
Dear Jean
I'm amateur, but I know you can teach me,
I may be green, but I'm ready to learn.
And if you want me to surrender completely
Take off your mortar board and make me a man
Dear Jean
I can't believe, do my eyes deceive, is the door wide open?
Here I go, standing on tippy toe, happy heart full of hoping.
Oh but what can I do? I'm my own poor fool,
now my dreams come crashing
As you share all the joys with my own head-boy
in a scene full of passion
I'm nervous, he's nervous, I'm nervous, what a fool.
He's nervous, I'm nervous, a nervous little fool.
Dear Jean, Dear Jean .. ......

Dear John Letter
Dear John I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn
And tonight I wed another, dear John
I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me
He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be
'Cause the fighting was all over and the battles have all been won
But then I opened up the letter and that started dear John
Won't you please send back my picture, my husband wants it now
When I tell you who I'm wedding you won't care dear anyhow
And it hurts me so to tell ye that my love for you has gone
But tonight I wed your brother dear John
And tonight I wed another dear John

Death Is Not End
( nick cave )
When you're sad and you're lonely
And you haven't got a friend
Just remember that death is not the end
And all that you hold sacred
Falls down and does not mend
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
When you're standing on the crosroads
That you cannot comprehend
Just remember that death is not the end
And all your dreams have vanished
And you don't know what's up the bend
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
When the storm clouds gather round you
And heavy rains descend
Just remember that death is not the end
And there is no-one there to comfort you
With a helping hand to lend
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
For the tree of life is growing
Where the spirit never dies
And the bright light of salvation
Up in dark and empty skies
When the cities are on fire
With the burning flesh of men
Just remember that death is not the end
And you search in vain to find
Some law-abiding citizen
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end

Debra Jean
So I can stop hanging around
So I can stop making that downtown trip, you know
I'm starting to get old
You know what I mean
You can scream and shout and it'll be fine
Keep in bed all day and blow my mind
You can hold me tight and rattle my brain
You can kiss me and drive me insane
Give me funny little shivers down my spine
When we kiss eachother every time
What I'm thinking and doing never seem to work out
They're always two diferent things you know
Open your eyes and see that you're the only girl for me
Debra Jean baby you're me queen
And queens don't seem to speak
To guys like me
I was meant for you and you were meant for me (2x)
One thing I know is true - I need a little girl like you
Someone to stay with me and stick by my side
And someone I can call my little butterfly
Give me funny little shivers down my spine
When we kiss eachother every time
What I'm thinking and doing never seem to work out
They're always two diferent things you know
Open your eyes and see that you're the only girl for me

The mirror of our mouths endlessly yelling
May I have attention, attention, attention?
This is a quote from our new weapons
This fight is more important than your life
Destruction is constructive
No, no, no
The world, waking, wearing, yeah
The way that deaf can see a sound in darkness
Certainly we will find, find hope in desperation
No, destruction is destructive
Everyone stay calm, we're taking over the ship
With our lives, with our heart, with our hands out
This God forsaken town
Hell will have no mercy
Hell will have no mercy, mercy

Disco Libido [Jean-Luc Cohen Dungeon Mix]
a little bit of blow and nothing to lose.
You've got your spiked hair and that attitude,
pretending you don't care when you obviously do.
You show up at the club with your entourage,
head to the bar, DJ spins Visage.
Pretending to talk while you scope out the meat,
you'll only go dance to a familiar beat.
Disco Libido
Now we must dance,
so later we fuck
I'm here to dance.
Just loosen up.
You're here to score?
Well, I don't give a fuck.
But you know what they say about how you dance
so at the end of the night, I may give you a chance.
All these other cowards, they stand there and watch.
Need to down some pills, kick it up a notch.
Here's you chance to turn me on, let's see what you
can do.
You've got the hottest mating dance, i'll spend the night with you.

Disconnecktie
And I've learned, I've learned absolutely nothing
As I'm standing here alone, upright and motionless
And I'm drowning in her sea
The rising and sinking
Of every consciousness I've ever known
Now detached, disconnected
The endless cycle of idea and action
Endless invention, endless experiment
Endless hope, endless disappointment
And I thought all I needed was just one breath to stay afloat
For me it was like, like the breath, the last breath
The last breath that I never wanted, any of this
I never thought that this would capsize
But this isn't a boat, it's a coffin
And now I'm moving forward
Into the sea, into the great sea
So I begin with the end in mind

Cycles of heaven, twenty centuries gone by
Twenty centuries gone by, come home
The end is coming like a flood
It's going to be a year for growing
And the greatest amount of forgetting
My sea is dying but death is a doorway
And at the very root of me I know this
And at the very root of me I know this, I know this
It's the greatest reminder
What a broad world to roam in
What a sea to swim in, what a sea to swim in
So I begin with the end in mind
So I begin with the end in mind

Don't Cha Boogie With Your Black Drawers Off
Said he had an awful cough
Went to see my baby,
He said he had an awful cough
He almost caught pneumonia,
Cause he boogied with his black drawers off
In the park, in the dark
The mockingbird he sings so soft
In the park, in the dark
The mockingbird he sings so soft
It make it oh so easy
To boogie with your black drawers off
- solos -
Turn on the lights, pour a corn,
Keep the music smooth and soft
Turn on the lights, pour a corn,
Keep the music smooth and soft
You don't need the fire department
If you boogie with your black drawers off

Don't Go Out into the Rain (You're Gonna Melt)
You're gonna melt, sugar, oh, no
Come and sit here by the fire
For a spell, sugar, oh, ho
Please take your shoes off
And make yourself comfortable
The weather's miserable
And you're so kissable
It's getting late, why don't you stay?
It's after one, we've just begun
She's got to go
Oh, no, no, no, please don't go
Don't go out into the rain
You're gonna melt, sugar, oh, no
Come and sit here by the fire
For a spell, sugar, oh, ho
The house is ours
Now that everybody's gone
And while the telly's on
We should be having fun
It's getting late, why don't you stay?
It's after one, we've just begun
She's got to go
Oh, no, no, no, please don't go
Don't go out into the rain
You're gonna melt, sugar, oh, no
Come and sit here by the fire
For a spell, sugar, oh, ho
It's getting late, why don't you wait?
It's after one, we've just begun
She's got to go
Oh, no, no, no, don't be insane

Don't Let That Doorknob Hit You
You found some excuse not to hold me tight
No matter what I do you sit and pout
Don't let that doorknob hit you going out
Don't let that doorknob hit you going out honey
Others lips now thrill you there's no doubt
There's no burden like the love you make me live without
Don't let that doorknob hit you going out
I've laid awake nights to two or three
So near to you but you're so far from me
The battle's done you won the fight no doubt
Don't let that doorknob hit you going out
Don't let that doorknob hit you
Don't let that doorknob hit you going out

Don't Make Me Over
Now that I'd do anything for you
Don't make me over
Now that you know how I adore you
Don't pick on the things I say, the things I do
Just love me with all my faults
The way that I love you, I'm begging you
Don't make me over
Now that I can't make it without you
Don't make me over
I wouldn't change one thing about you
Just take me inside your arms and hold me tight
And always be by my side
If I am wrong or right, I'm begging you
Don't make me over
Don't make me over
Now that you've got me at your command
Accept me for what I am
Accept me for the things that I do
Accept me for what I am
Accept me for the things that I do
Now that I can't make it without you
I wouldn't change one thing about you
Accept me for what I am
Accept me for the things that I do
Accept me for what I am
Accept me for the things that I do

Don't Release Me [Wyclef Jean Remix]
Yeah yeah, yeah
I'd like to introduce to you
Wyclef Jean with Gloria Estefan
When the Cubans meet the Haitians and Sicilians
Hold your corner, hold your corner
For the thugs who've ever been in love
Hey, yo, this one goes out for the Cuban kings and queens
You ever fell in love with a pretty serpentine?
I met her at the club, yes down with my pager
Asked her what's her name, she said Gloria
Where you from? Cuba
What do you do? I'm a singer
I pulled out my stash
She said, are you a dealer from Havana?
No, no
Yo, can I buy you a tequila?
She said, hell no, I'll take a pina colada
Now with one drink, I'll put her in a spell
I'm huntin' the kid
Like a cheetah hunts a gazelle
I know it's wrong, but I'm waitin' for her mistake
So I can take over like the Devil's advocate
Please don't release me, don't release me
From this spell you got me under, I said
Please don't release me, don't release me
From this spell you got me under
I can't let go, I can't let go
Got to hold on to you, baby
Got to hold on to you now
Ooh, you make me feel like I could lose control
I'm gonna lose it right now
Wanna show you what love can do
Oh I feel like I am walkin' in the clouds
Don't wanna come down again
Let go, oh no
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Please don't release me, don't release me
From this spell you got me under
Uh, uh
Got to hold on to you, baby
Got to hold on to you now
Show me how to find the way to paradise
You can take me there
Want to be the only lover in your life
Ooh baby, don't release me
I got this feelin' that I can't explain
Don't you know I feel like I could rise above the ground
Don't wanna come down
Please don't release me, don't don't release me
From this spell you got me under
Uh, uh
Hold on to you, baby
Got to hold on to you now

Don't Stop
Make that money, I'm in control
A man's cool if I'm in town
Don't need no one to hold me down
I keeps it moving 'cause that's just me
I'm complicated, sleep don't come easy
And everything I got, yeah, I worked for it
Nothing comes for free
Ladies, if you understand just where I'm coming from?
From the BK to Hollywood, come on
If you doing you then ain't a damn thing wrong
Come on, come on sing this song
Fellas, if you hear me and you handling your biz?

Fellas if you hear us say 'Don't Stop'
Got no worries 'cause I'm blessed
And where I'm from I don't forget
Stay focused and I don't look back
I pay my dues and I earn respect
I've been broken, I've been down
Yeah, I'm from the hood but I made it out
I always knew at the end of the day
It be me myself and God
Ladies, if you understand just where I'm coming from?
From the BK to Hollywood come on
If you doing you then ain't a damn thing wrong
Come on, come on sing this song

Don't Touch Me
The look in your eyes pulls me apart
Don't open the door to heaven if I can't come in
Don't touch me if you don't love me, sweetheart
Your kiss is like a drink when I'm thirsty
And I'm thirsty for you with all my heart
But don't love me then act as though we've never kissed
Don't touch me if you don't love me, sweetheart
Don't give me something that you might take away
To have you then lose you wouldn't be smart on my part
Don't open the door to heaven if I can't come in
Don't touch me if you don't love me, sweetheart
No, don't touch me if you don't love me, sweetheart

Don't You Ever Get Tired
Oh, you're happy when I'm out of my mind
You won't love me but you won't let me be
Oh, don't you ever get tired of hurting me
Somebody must have hurt you long ago
But, oh, why avenge someone who loves you so
Oh, please loosen these chains and let me breathe
Don't you ever get tired of hurtin' me
You must think I look bad with a smile
For you haven't let me have on in such a long long while
Still I keep running back how can this be
Oh, don't you ever get tired of hurtin' me

Down By The Water
I lost my heart
Under the bridge
To that little girl
So much to me
And now i'm old
And now i holler
She'll never know
Just what i found
That blue eyed girl
(that blue eyed girl)
She said "no more"
(she said "no more")
That blue eyed girl
(that blue eyed girl)
Became blue eyed whore
('came blue eyed whore)
Down by the water
(down by the water)
I took her hand
(i took her hand)
Just like my daughter
(just like my daughter)
Won't see her again
(see her again)
Oh help me jesus
Come through this storm
I had to lose her
To do her harm
I heard her holler
(i heard her holler)
I heard her moan
(i heard her moan)
My lovely daughter
(my lovely daughter)
I took her home
(i took her home)
Little fish. big fish. swimming in the water.
Come back here, man. gimme my daughter.
Little fish. big fish. swimming in the water.
Come back here, man. gimme my daughter.
Little fish. big fish. swimming in the water.
Come back here, man. gimme my daughter ....

Dress
Put on that dress
I'm going out dancing
Starting off red
Gleam and sparkling he'll see me
Music play make me dreamy for dancing
Must be a way that i can dress to please him
It's hard to walk and the dress is not easy
I'm swinging over like a heavy loaded fruit tree
If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on
It's sad to see
Lonely or this lonely
Close up my eyes
Dreamy dreamy music make it be alright
Music play make it good for romancing
Must be a way i can dress to please him
Swing and sway everything will be alright
But he's feeling so down tight tonight
If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on
You pretty thing
My man says
But i bought you beautiful dresses
You pretty thing
My man says
But i bought you beautiful dresses
Filthy type your dress is filthy
I'm falling flat and my arms are empty
Get away better get it out of this room
A fallen woman in dancing costume
If you put it on x8

Driving
Tell him i'm driving, it's alright
Turn on this wheel
Turn on headlights
A hundred different bibles by my side
In my white gown
I go flying down
Oh my eyes, it cannot be,; he said no, it cannot be
All that time, it cannot be,; easy said, it cannot be
The ghosts fly their asses off tonight
I'm just driving till it dies
Tell him i'm driving, it's alright
You tell him that i had a skin full
You tell him that i couldn't sit still
Imagine your whole self is filled with light
Your voice ringing out
Through the whole fucking town
Oh my eyes, it cannot be ; he said no, it cannot be
All that time, it cannot be ; oh my eyes, it cannot be
You tell him i'm driving ( x4 )

Coming around again
I thought it was worth waiting
You're caught up in my head
Wet sides from time to time
But mostly i'm just dry

You've come all this way
No hair out of place
You put it on the stage
You put right in my face
You leave me dry

You leave me dry
No water well in sight
No water at my sides

I'm sucking 'till i'm white

Emma Jean's Guitar
With the guns and dusty watches it looked so out of place
With a railways baggage sticker, yellow frayed and torn
Destination Nashville, September '64
And you could tell by the fingerboard her painted nails were long
She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs
And her name's etched in the finish like a fading battle scar
And this 1950 Gibson was Emma Jean's guitar
I wonder if she played it in a small town talent show
With her hair teased to perfection in a dress her mamma sewed
And for a little inspiration she pasted on a star
Here up on the head stock of Emma Jean's guitar
And you could tell by the fingerboard her painted nails were long
She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs
And her name's etched in the finish like a fading battle scar
And this 1950 Gibson was Emma Jean's guitar
I wouldn't even know her if I saw her face to face
But there's a little bit of Emma Jean in every song I play
She passed along these hopes and dreams cradled in my arms
And I am just a guardian of Emma Jean's guitar
You could tell by the fingerboard her painted nails were long
She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs
And her name's etched in the finish like a fading battle scar
And this 1950 Gibson was Emma Jean's guitar

With the guns and dusty watches it looked so out of place
With a trailways baggage sticker yellow frayed and torn

She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs
And they were played with tenderness they were played with heart

Evil on Your Mind
Why don't I go and see my sister way out west
That's very thoughtful of you, dear
And I'm really touched by all your tenderness
But us women are suspicious things
We know that men aren't born with wings
What's makin' you so kind
Now I'm not smart but I'm not blind
I think that you've got evil on your mind
You think that you've been good
About as long as muskart bloomed, human could
We've been together for so long
I know another pasture's a looking good
Don't think that other men don't look at me
That certain way from time to time, don't think you're the only one
That must counted with evil on your mind
Your mind is in the hare man
Surrounded by exotic dancin' girls
You're hearin' pretty music
As they run their slender fingers through your curls
Ah, dream on, baby
I thank you for the flowers and the candy honey, that was a very kind
For that's your way of tellin' me you're sorry
For the evil on your mind

Eyepennies
And dig up my bones from the clay
I buried nails and strings and hair
And that old tooth I believe was a bear's
I held my hand in the fire
It burned me down to the wires
Blood suckers hide beneath my bed
And black fumes of skin so gently bled
I slept with a cat on my breast
Slowing my heart stealing my breath
At sunrise the monkeys will fly
And leave me with pennies in my eyes
I will return here one day
And dig up my bones from the clay
I buried nails and string and hair
And that old tooth I believe was a bear's
At sunrise the monkeys will fly
And leave me with pennies in my eyes

Faded Jeans
Made me cough up this kinda song
There's a guy singin', I'd die for you
And it sounds like he means business too
Here's me thinkin' all through the meal
Thank you for bein' so real and givin' me chills
You're the prettiest girl in the world
It's the best joke I ever heard
Young forever, never, never grow old together
Gotta put on your blinkers for a cakewalk in the sun
Like a mission impossible, like Atilla the hun
Tomorrow's got me hidin' away
Yesterday's got me on the run
And my jeans keep fadin', fadin'
And my jeans keep fadin'
Dunno where these guys do come from
That say they'll kill and die for someone
It's a fluke people, that makes me puke, yeah, yeah
And I can't believe this is the truth
Here's me tryin' to make up my mind
One says love is hard to find, two says that it's blind
You're the prettiest girl in the world
It's the best joke I ever heard
Young forever, never, never grow old together
Gotta put on your blinkers for a cakewalk in the sun
Like a mission impossible, like Attila the Hun
Tomorrow's got me hidin' away
Yesterday's got me on the run
And my jeans keep fadin', fadin'
And my jeans keep fadin'
We're go out to yourself past
Get yourself a pair of new blue jeans
Into the washin' machine
Six times bleach, bleach, bleach
Mama's gonna crazy, see what you do
These pairs are brand new
I'll say, send it with that's my jeans keep fadin', fadin'

When will we ever meet
Not in this life
When will i be a bird
Is it this life
White doves only see
From up high

No not another night
Another dark place
White dives only see
From up high
When will another bird
Bend my mind

Foggy River
Flowing o'er a heart of stone
You left me stranded on this foggy river
Drifting helpless and alone
Can't escape this broken heart of mine
There's no freedom anymore
Oh Heaven, help me on this foggy river
Help me find the distant shore
There's no tomorrow on this foggy river
Only mem'ries linger on
A mist of sorrow chills this foggy river
Everything I love is gone
I always knew some day you'd let me down
I've got troubles on my mind
Guess I'm doomed to sail this foggy river
Till I leave your love behind

Forever In Blue Jeans
Written by: neil diamond and richard bennet
Money talks
But it don't sing and dance
And it don't talk
As long as i can have you here with me
I'd much rather be
Forever in blue jeans
Honey is sweet
But it ain't nothing next to baby's treat
And if you'll pardon me
I'd like to say
We'll do okay
Forever in blue jeans
Maybe tonight
Maybe tonight by the fire
All alone you and i
Nothing around but the sound
Of my heart and your sighs
Money talks
But it don't sing and dance
And it can't walk
As long as i can have you here with me
I'd much rather be
Forever in blue jeans
And honey is sweet
But it ain't nothing next to baby's treat
And if you'll pardon me
I'd like to say
We'll do okay
Forever in blue jeans
Maybe tonight
Maybe tonight by the fire
All alone you and i
Nothing around but the sound
Of my heart and your sighs

Fountain
Stand under fountain
Cool skin, wash clean
Wash him from me
Along comes the wind
A big bone shaker
Blows off my clothes
Completely naked
What to do
When everything's
Left you
Out of the blue
It is he
Vision to me
Bearing leaves
Petals green
Covers me
In all my shame
Hand in hand
He's my big man
Stays with me
Some forty days
No words
Then goes away
I cry a-gain
On my hill i wait for wind
And on my hill i wait for wind x5

Frankie Jean (That Trottin' Fool)
One time my papa had a horse, his name was Frankie Jean
Man, that's the running'est horse the world I ever seen
And it just do me good to ride old Frankie Jean
And it do you good to sit and listen at him sometimes
When he's coming down that plank road, almost making his feet talk
Man, that's the singlest-footing horse the world I ever seen
Something kind of like this:
(Instrumental break)
Go on, Frankie Jean, go on
I had him out with me once and he got loose
I couldn't catch him to save my life
I called Frankie Jean and I called him
He didn't seem to pay me no mind
I went and told my papa, "How would you do if you want to catch a horse?"
He said, "How did you do?"
I said, "I called mine; called Frankie Jean and called him
He didn't seem to pay me no attention"
Said, "That's a horse, you can't, you didn't call him right
You must whistle when you want your horse to come to you
Something like this:"
(Full verse whistled)
Then he come single-footing to me
So I took him out again; he got loose from me
I called him and called him
He didn't seem to pay me no attention
I thought about what papa said
You's a horse, I must whistle for you, something like this:
(Full verse whistled)
Then he comes single-footing to me
I had him out on a race once
I had $5000 betting on Frankie Jean
Folks, I wasn't scared at all, 'cause I know he wasn't going to let me lose
'Fore he let me lose, he'd run off all of his shoes
Something like this:
(Instrumental break)
Go on, Frankie Jean

Fresh Interlude
Yo yo, this Wyclef, alongside DJ Skribble (for the ladies)
Yo Skribble I have one question
Could you please answer this for me?
I gotta know this yo
What makes a DJ *cut and scratched 'fresh'*
What makes an MC *cut and scratch 'fresh'*
What makes the ReFugees *scratch 'fresh'*
Why are kids getting jealous?
Cause we F, R, E, S, H
Fresh, fresh, fresh, that's, fresh!
F, R, E, S, H
Fresh, fresh, fresh, that's, fresh!
Hey you, player, with the dibble and the dabble
You wanna battle who? Wyclef or DJ Skribble
Hold the stickup it's a freestyle session
Skribble where you from man *scratched 'Long Island'*
Well I'm from Haiti, then Brooklyn, then Jersey
with a universal tag, plus I got *scratched 'money in the bag'*
You slept on this musician, plus the hip-hop art
Bring your best MC's *scratched 'What?'*
Cause every man got disciples if you ever want a rival
Show up, with a mic, and a rifle
Wyclef stuck the bank at mid-day
and took all of Sony money, in a black van he got away
I just got a call from Tommy Mottola
He said forget about it 'oh my word'
So I held John Agrassia, at gunpoint
He's shook, callin Donny Aiena, while smokin a joint
I said, 'Who's the informer?' They say, 'Michael Malden'
I had to take him out 'Three the hard way!'
The moral of this story don't blame the record company
If your record ain't selling you lack creativity
But what you want me to say? What what you want me to say huh?
Yo I've been trying to get a deal for, years and it ain't
What you want me to say?
*cut and scratched 'hehehehehehe'*
*cut and scratched 'ju-ju-just shut up'*
*cut and scratched 'Bite it!'*
*mix the above three*
'And I'll kill anyone, who dares to go against me!'

Games People Play
Never meaning what they say now, never saying what they mean
Oh, they wile away the hours in their ivory towers
Till they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine
Lotten da, la da da da, lotten da, la a da da dee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play
Oh, we make one another cry, break a heart then we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die that the other one's to blame
People walking up to ya singing, "Glory Hallelujah"
And they're tryin' to sock it to ya in the name of the Lord
Lotten da, la da da da, lotten da, la a da da dee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play
Oh, look around and tell me what you see, what's happening to you and me
God grant me the serenity to remember who I am
Some give up their sanity for their pride and their vanity
Turn their back on humanity and they don't give a da da da da
Lotten da, la da da da, lotten da, la a da da dee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play

Generation Gap
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah
When you see a little baby sittin' on his mama's lap
Well, it's just the beginnin' of a thing called the generation gap
It's not the difference of age now everybody's talking 'bout
It's all those no no's that make up the generation gap
Well, the grown ups go out now to parties and get stoned
But that's somethin' they won't talk about around the children at home
But they ain't foolin' anybody now 'cause the kids are gonna find it out
Just another reason for the thing called the generation gap
The generation gap is a mighty mighty big hole
You ain't gonna fill it up with all the lies being told
Wah, wah, wah, wah, you'd better clean your house
If you expect to narrow the generation gap
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah
Daddy says that drinkin' is a sin that we'll have to pay for
Well, then what's that liquor bottle doin' in the dash of his car?
And who's the man that calls mama every time that daddy's out?
Now, do you still wonder, why we still have the generation gap?
The generation gap is a mighty mighty big hole
Now, do you still wonder why we got the generation gap?
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah

Get Ready for This [Rio & Jean Remix '92]
Get down with the sound, house on the ground
Freeze when I squeeze, drop to your knees
You must of bet, I'm in here to stay
Ready to take you around the way
So you get ready for this, mind your own biz
'Cause I am bad, yeah the microphone wiz
No need to sit, 'cause we're 2 Unlimited
Ready, ready, ready for this
Feel the base, you just get closer
Be impressed by the words I chose of
Once again kickin' it live
Doin' everything yo just to survive
Above the law, I take our stand
Being on stage with a mic in my hand
Bustin' it loud to the crowd
The age is 20, I'm from the south
Be a part, break my heart
Get ready for this, mind your own biz
People in the front, show me what you want
And I won't give it in, get ready for this
We're 2 Unlimited, so people won't you sing?
Movin' up and down, dancin' on the ground
Feelin' kinda free, security
How's this sound, that moves you from the ground
House on the ground, bass in your face
Racin' the place, no time to waste
Being hypnotized, I can see it in your eyes
Feelin' kinda better, put on your sweater
Feelin' like a white, I think it doesn't matter
Super, dope, def, and even outrageous
If I was an animal, they'd 've kept me in cages
So get ready for this
Y'all ready for this?
Be a part, break my heart
Get ready for this, mind your own biz
People in the front, show me what you want

Ghetto Religion
I heard him saying
Tomorrow no more
Pay me now or leave
But we didn't have anything to give?(ah can you feel me)
Searching for restoration?(and we need restoration)
Make the church my family
This is my story
This is my song
And I can sing it all night long?I tell you why because
The ghetto is a part of my religion?(the only thing my eyes can see)
The only thing my eyes can see?(and I tell you there aint no man)
There aint no man gonna stop the vision?(I'm a part of the ghetto)
The ghetto is a part of me
Children cry no more?(children cry no more)
Because heaven is upon you
Please put down your guns
And we shall overcome
Thought your load may be heavy
Know that the weight makes you strong
Take my life for example
While I sing my song
Mr. Kelly help me sing this song?
The ghetto is a part of my religion?(the only thing my eyes can see)
The only thing my eyes can see?(and I tell you there aint no man)
There aint no man gonna stop the vision?(I'm a part of the ghetto)
The ghetto is a part of me
The ghetto is a part of my religion?(the only thing my eyes can see)
The only thing my eyes can see?(and I tell you there aint no man)
There aint no man gonna stop the vision?(I'm a part of the ghetto)
The ghetto is a part of me
La la la la la lala la?
La la la la la lala la?
La la la la la lala la?
The ghetto is a part of me
The ghetto is a part of my religion

Yes I done had my fun, had my fun, if I don't get well no more
Well I been livin', lovin' and lyin', and now I'm goin' down slow
Please write my mother, tell her the shape I'm in
Please write my mother, tell her the shape I'm in
Tell her not to worry, just forgive me for my sin
(forgive me, forgive me, forgive me)
On the next train South, look for my clothes on
On the next train South people, look for my clothes on
And if you do not see my body, please don't weep and moan
Don't cry mother, oh this is my prayer
Don't cry mother, mother, oh this is my prayer
Just say your daughter is in another world somewhere

Gone 'Til November (Pop Version)
I wanna dedicate this song, Gone 'Til November...
To all you ladies out there, crying all alone in your room
And all you fellas, going down south...Not making it back...
May the lord bless your soul, I love you girl
[Wyclef - Chorus]
Every time I make a run
Girl you turn around and cry
I ask myself, why oh why?
See you must understand
I can't work a nine to five
so I'll be Gone...'Til November
Said I'll be Gone 'Til November
I'll be Gone 'Til November
Yo, tell my girl yo I'll be Gone 'Til November
I'll be Gone 'Til November
I'll be Gone 'Til November
Yo, tell my girl yo I'll be Gone 'Til November
January, February, March, April, May...
I see you crying, but girl I can't stay
I'll be Gone 'Til November
I'll be Gone 'Til November...
And give a kiss to my mother...
[Wyclef - Verse One]
Girl I gotta leave, please don't cry
When I come back, you know the limit's the sky
I'll take you out to dinner, to your favorite spot
Feed you an aphrodisiac just to get you hot
Drive-by movies, by a cemetary
If my corpse could talk then I would tell you I was sorry
Lifestyles of The Rich & Famous,
Some die with a name, some die nameless
[Chorus 1x]
[Wyclef - Verse Two]
We had nothin'
I had to do something
So I'm Knocking On Heaven's Door, like I'm Bob Dylan
Ever comtemplating, the charges I'm facing
My new-born son, I hope I see his graduation
Take him to the movies, by the cemetary
If my corpse could talk then I would tell him, I was sorry
Lifestyles of The Rich & Famous
Some die with a name, some die nameless!
[Chorus 1x]

Gone 'til November
Intro: (spoken)
I dedicate this record, "the carnival" to all you brothers takin' long
Trips down south, virginia, baltimore, all around the world, and your
Girl gets this message that you ain't comin' back. she's sittin' back
In the room, the lights are off, she's cryin', and then my voice comes in
Pow!, in the middle of the night, and this is what i told her for you
Chorus: (sung)
Every time i make a run, girl, you turn around and cry
I ask myself why, oh why
See, you must understand, i can't work a 9 to 5
So i'll be gone 'til november
Said i'll be gone 'til november, i'll be gone 'til november
Yo, tell my girl, yo, i'll be gone 'til november
I'll be gone 'til november, i'll be gone 'til november
Yo, tell my girl, yo, i'll be gone 'til november
January, february, march, april, may
I see you cryin', but girl, i can't stay
I'll be gone 'til november, i'll be gone 'til november
And give a kiss to my mother
Verse 1: (sung)
When i come back, there'll be no need to clock
I'll have enough money to buy out blocks
Tell my brother, "go to school in september"
So he won't mess up in summer school in the summer
Tell my cousin, jerry, wear his condom
If you don't wear condom, you'll see a red lump
Woh oh oh oh
You sucker mc's, you got no flow
I heard your style, you're s-o s-o
Repeat chorus
Verse 2: (rap)
I had to flip nuttin' and turn it into somethin'
Hip-hop turns to the future rock when i smash a punk (bing!)
Commit treason, then i'll have a reason to hunt you down
It's only right, it's rappin' season
Yeah, you with the loud voice, posin' like you're top choice
Your voice, i'll make a hearse out of your rolls royce
Besides, i got my girl to remember
And i'll commit it that i'll be back in november
Repeat chorus
I know the hustle's hard, but we gotta enterprise, the carnival

Forgive me when I'm gone, me and Canibus

[Wyclef Jean]
I got it made, hey last word from the hustler
Hey, young 'Clef, take care of your mother
Looked at him and replied, "Yo, daddy where you goin?"
He said, "To Baltimore," he'll be back in the mornin
Gave my mom a hug for her soul when she cry
Every man want heaven, no man want die
Vanished through the door, all I saw was his shadow
Heard mom echo, "I don't wanna be a widow"
That's when I realized, death was ahead
Old man pulled off, in a black caravan
With some dark skinned brothers who looked Sicilian
singing Karma Karma Karma Karma Karma Cha-me-leon
[Prazwell/Dirty Cash]
Yeah, yeah, check it, can't stop the shinin
You wanna stop the shinin? No doubt, ahh
[Wyclef Jean]
Everytime I make a run (uh-huh, uh-huh)

Me and 'Clef, we ready to get it on, the three and a half pound
organ imbedded in our skulls is what makes us better than y'all
I'm telling you God, ain't nobody reppin this hard since Genghis Khan
We raise Hell til the heavens fall
Me and my Fugee affiliates buildin, wit plans to make millions
over a quiet game of billiards
Black Sicilians, the descendants of West Indian pilgrims
With the power to collapse buildings
Riding across the ocean floor like Poseidon on a seahorse
to reach our overseas tours
By the middle of March, when the pregnancy starts
in my lady's placenta, I'll be gone 'till November (come on)
[R. Kelly + Wyclef]
Now everytime I make a run
Girl, you turn around and cry (uh-huh, uh-huh)
I ask myself oh why, oh why (you need muscle for the hustle, uh-huh)
See you've got to understand (uh-huh)
I can't work a nine to five (uh-huh)
So I'll be gone, til November
[Wyclef + Khadejiah Bass]
Tell me say Michelle, my belle
Yo I'll be gone til November
Standin on the block where the spot get hot, selling rocks
Guaranteed to get set up by a crooked cop
Michelle, my belle (you was wrong)
I know it's wrong, I wrote this rap song
Forgive me when I'm gone, me and Canibus
we workin the night shift, shift, shift
(Are you a) S-O, S-O
(A meanine) so-so, so-so
[Wyclef Jean]
You gave the feds more info than Sammy "The Bull" Gravano
Jeremiah wore the wire, snitch on Zachariah
In return the feds offer the throne to Neb'kenezer
[Canibus]
Trust me, you don't wanna be the one we bring it to
Our lyrical, can make your rap careers real miserable
You ain't invincible all we gotta do is get pissed at you
Point you out to some people that'll physically injure you
[Wyclef Jean]
It's like Lord, take this ass whippin some more
Like Jay-Z, "pa-pa's," someone pass the guaze
[R. Kelly + Wyclef]
Now everytime I make a run (uh-huh)
Girl, you turn around and cry
I ask myself oh why, oh why (you need muscle for the hustle)
See you've got to understand
I can't work a 9 to 5
So I'll be gone, til November...

Gone Till November
Down south, Virginia, Baltimore all round the world
And your girl gets this message that you ain't comin' back
She sittin' back in her room, da lights is off
She's cryin', and then my voice comes in pow
And in the middle of the night and this is what I tell her for you
Every time I make a run, girl you turn around and cry
I ask myself why, oh why?
See you must understand I can't work a 9 to 5
So I'll be gone till November
Said I'll be gone till November, I'll be gone till November
You tell my girl I'll be gone till November, I'll be gone till November
I'll be gone 'til November, you tell my girl yo I'll be gone till November
January, February, March, April, May
I see you cryin' but girl I can't stay
I'll be gone till November, I'll be gone till November
And give a kiss to my motha
When I come back there be no time to clock
I'll have enough money to buy out the glocks
Tell my brotha go to school in September
So he won't mess up in summer school in da summer
Tell my cousin Jerry wear his condom
If you don't wear condom you see a red line
Oh, you sucka M.C's you got no flow
I heard ya style you S O, S O
Every time I make a run, girl you turn around and cry
I ask myself why, oh why?
See you must understand I can't work a 9 to 5
So I'll be gone till November
Said I'll be gone till November I'll be gone till November
You tell my girl I'll be gone till November, I'll be gone till November
I'll be gone 'til November, you tell my girl yo I'll be gone till November
January, February, March, April, May
I see you cryin' but girl I can't stay
I'll be gone till November, I'll be gone till November
And give a kiss to my motha
I had to flick nothin' and turn it in to somethin'
Hip-Hop turns to the future of rock when I smash a pumpkin
Commit treason now I have a reason
To hunt you down it's only right its rappers season, yeah you
With the loud voice posin' like your top choice
I make a hertz out of ya rolls Royce
Besides I got my girl to remember and I committed that
I'll be back in November
Every time I make a run, girl you turn around and cry
I ask myself why, oh why?
See you must understand I can't work a 9 to 5
So I'll be gone till November
Said I'll be gone till November I'll be gone till November
You tell my girl I'll be gone till November, I'll be gone till November
I'll be gone 'til November, you tell my girl yo I'll be gone till November
January, February, March, April, May
I see you cryin' but girl I can't stay
I'll be gone till November, I'll be gone till November
And give a kiss to my motha
I know the hustle’s hard, but we gotta enterprise, the carnival

Good Enough to Be Your Wife
Marriage doesn't fit your way of life
And you say that you'll be with me forever
Well if that's true, please make me your wife
'Cause if I'm good enough to be your woman, good enough to share your life
Good enough to live together, I'm good enough to be your wife
Good enough to have your children, good enough to give 'em life
Good enough to do your cooking, I'm good enough to be your wife
I don't care what people say about us
Loving one another isn't wrong
And I don't care as long as we're together
Right here next to you is where I belong
But, if I'm good enough to be your woman, good enough to share your life
Good enough to live together, I'm good enough to be your wife
Good enough to have your children, good enough to give 'em life
Good enough to do your cooking, I'm good enough to be your wife
Darling I'm so glad you want me with you
But sharin' someone's life just ain't the game
So with you really want to live together
Then first of all I've got to have your name
'Cause if I'm good enough to be your woman, good enough to share your life
Good enough to live together, I'm good enough to be your wife
Good enough to have your children, good enough to give 'em life
Good enough to do your cooking, I'm good enough to be your wife

Good Fortune
Threw my bad fortune
Off the top of
A tall building
I'd rather have done it with you
Your boy's smile
Five in the morning
Looked into your eyes
And i was really in love
In chinatown
Hung over
You showed me
Just what i could do
Talkin about
Time travel
And the meaning
And just what it was worth
And i feel like
Some bird of paradise
My bad fortune
Slipping away
And i feel the
Innocence of a child
Everybody has
Something good to say
Things i once thought
Unbelievable
In my life
Have all taken place
When we walked through
Little italy
I saw my reflection
Come right off your face
I paint pictures
To remember
You're too beautiful
To put it into words
Like a gypsy
You dance in circles
All around me
And all over the world
And i feel like
Some bird of paradise
My bad fortune
Slipping away
And i feel the
Innocence of a child
Everybody has
Something good to say
And i feel like
Some bird of paradise
My bad fortune
Slipping away
And i feel the
Innocence of a child
Everybody has
Something good to say
So i take my
Good fortune
And i fantasize
Of our leaving
Like some modern-day
Gypsy landslide
Like some modern-day
Bonnie and clyde
On the run again ( on the run again )
On the run again ( on the run again )
On the run again ( on the run again )
On the run again ( on the run again )

Good Golly Miss Molly
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call
From the early, early mornin' till the early, early night
You can see Miss Molly rockin' at the house of blue lights
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call
Well, momma, poppa told me, "Son, you better watch your step"
If I knew my momma, poppa have to watch my dad myself
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call
I am going to the corner, gonna buy a diamond ring
Would you pardon me if it's a nineteen carat golden thing?
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like to ball
Good golly, Miss Molly, sure like to ball
When you're rockin' and a rollin'
Can't hear your momma call

Grateful
And it don't get no realer than this
This is as real as it gets y'all, huh
Maybe my mother, coulda been my father
Perhaps it was my sister, probably my brother
Maybe the church, coulda been the street
Perhaps it was the guitar, or Jerry Wonder beats
Maybe the money when I didn't have a dime
Maybe a way out before committin' crimes
Coulda been Lauryn, perhaps it was Pras
Probably the mirror lookin' dead in my eyes
Coulda been reggae, or the love of hip-hop
Maybe my fans at the show sayin' don't stop
Probably the struggle of all refugees
Maybe the sign how the diamonds bling-bling, ching-ching
Ring ring, there's a call from my wifey
Perhaps I gotta make it home but music keep callin' me
And maybe it's all I know,
Whatever it is I'm grateful for being
A man with a guitar, a dude from the streets
A cat with a song, a Refugee MC
Wyclef Jean, a Fugee for life
A preacher's son, first one on the run
I'm grateful that I haven't been shot
Stopped by the cops and they didn't find a glock
W Y C L E F, I'm grateful
Coulda been a crack fiend with no place to go
Lord, oh mighty God, have mercy on my soul
Coulda been Pablo, king of Yayo
Or a pimp with a limp screamin' we don't love them hoes
Oh no, God knows, perhaps I was chosen
A source of inspiration for the next generation
And maybe it's all I know
Whatever it is I'm grateful for being
A man with a guitar, a dude from the streets
A cat with a song, a Refugee MC
Wyclef Jean, a Fugee for life
A preacher's son, first one on the run
I'm grateful that I haven't been shot
Stopped by the cops and they didn't find a glock
W Y C L E F, I'm grateful
Everybody sing along now you can make it like I made it
Don't let anyone tell you different
When doors close another door will open
Many have called but my people are chosen
You can make it if I made it
Don't let anyone tell you different
When doors close another door will open, yeah
Many have called but my people are chosen, yeah
A man with a guitar, a dude from the streets
A cat with a song, a Refugee MC
Wyclef Jean, a Fugee for life
A preacher's son, first one on the run
I'm grateful that I haven't been shot

Green Eyes
He called me magdalene
So much my eyes have seen
Cleopatra
Would have wept for these of green
I watch the people leave
I walk this sorry town
When i saw him first
He was looking down
He called me magdalene
My sea queen
But he would not look
Into these eyes of green
When we were there alone
No one else around
When i returned to him
He was still looking down
I came, i witnessed
Followed, found
Returned, returned
He's still looking down
Still looking down
And the people leave
Leave this girl
Leave this girl
Leave this town
And still he dares
Dares not look at me
He's drawing circles in the ground

Your green I'z just hypnotize me
And I just love your flashy ways
Don't you know my love is here to stay
Is here to stay, is here to stay, is here to stay
Listen, so innocent, so tempted, what to do?
Look into my I'z, they'll take over you
They'll draw your body close
They'll take control of you
Look into the windows of my soul
What makes your man wanna let go?
Makes your body hot head to toe
These green I'z
Keep the contact, don't lose it
Makes you wanna come pursue this
Don't you wanna come and be with
These green I'z, these green I'z?
These green I'z
I'll make you do like this
That you said, you'll never do
What's wrong baby, boy?
Am I teasing you?
On your mind, all the time
Look into the windows of my soul
What makes your man wanna let go?
Makes your body hot head to toe
These green I'z
Keep the contact, don't lose it
Makes you wanna come pursue this
Don't you wanna come and be with
These green I'z?
These green I'z
Drop your things and hand 'em away
Don't you want to come and play?
Find a place to get away
There's no words for what the I'z can say
Look into the windows of my soul
What makes your man wanna let go?
Makes your body hot head to toe
These green I'z
Keep the contact, don't lose it
Makes you wanna come pursue this
Don't you wanna come and be with

Yo, i wrote this in haiti, overlooking cuba
I asked her what's her name, she said, 'guantanamera'
Remind me of an old latin song, my uncle used to play
On his old forty-five when he used to be alive
She went from a young girl, to a grown woman
Like a virgin, so she sex with no average mahn
Peep the figure, move like a caterpillar
Fly like a butterfly, let your soul feel her glide
Pac woman better yet space invader
If your name was chun-li, we'd be playin street fighter
Penny for your thoughts, a nickel for your kiss
A dime if you tell me that you love me

Make stakes at a faster rate then she fornicates
Pure traits of genius, goddess of black venus
Crab niggaz angry cause they can't get between us
To no sele-xion, smooth complex-ion
The lexicon of lexington, parents came from cuba
Part mexican, pure sweet, dimes fell to her feet
She like movado, and shook her hips like delgado
And broke niggaz down from the grounds to apollo
And then some, she took her act sent it to dim sum
And waited patiently while the businessmen come
Call late on purpose, got even politicians nervous
And made plans to infiltrate the street secret service
This gentle flower, fertility was her power
Sweet persona, venus flytrap primadonna
Que sera que sera she turned dinero to dinera

Gunpowder
I asked my mother why do you cry
She said your brother had... he just died
Well i told him not to go outside
He said he had to fight for his country's right
But don't you know that mo-mother
Don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no
Because the war is not over
Until you can feel love, peace, and hear silence
But i smell gunpowder (pow)
My brother's been dead ever since
I didn't beleive it, but when i saw him i was convinced
Two shots to the head he was already dead lord,
I headed for revenge in the city of port au prince
Screaming bro-brother
Don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no
Because the war is not over
Until you can feel love, peace, and hear silence
But i smell gunpowder (pow)
Zion's gunpowder (pow)
L.a.'s gunpowder (pow)
I wanna know why
Christians pray for a new day
We don't need no, we don't need no, we don't need no
But its still the same way
I wanna know why
Ghetto people pray for a new day
Hey, hey, heeey
And its still the same way
But the preacher man told me
Good things come to those who wait
Do good things come to those who wait?
I wanna know tell me
Good things come to those who wait
Do good things come to those who wait?
We wanna know, we wanna know, we wanna know [pause]

Don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no
Because the war is not over
Until you can feel love, peace, and hear the silence

I'm tied to you right or wrong
My love keeps a growing
'Cause your love keeps a showing
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on
Just enough to keep me a hangin' on
A love as strong as mine will make me do most anything
Like hiding tears and heartaches, and dreaming silly dreams

You keep stringing me along

Dropped off
Pick the fruit

So cover my body

More than the mountains, you
More than i can see

More than the mountains, you
So fruit flower myself inside out
I'm happy and bleeding for you
Fruit flower myself inside out
I'm tired and i'm bleeding for you
This fruit was bruised
Dropped off and blue
Out of season
Happy and bleeding
Long overdue
Too early and it's late too
Too early and it's late too

Harper Valey P.T.A.
'Bout a Harper Valley widowed wife
Who had a teenage daughter
Who attended Harper Valley Junior High
Well, her daughter came home one afternoon
And didn't even stop to play
And she said, "Mom, I got a note here
From the Harper Valley PTA"
Well, the note says, "Mrs. Johnson
You're wearing your dresses way too high
It's reported you've been drinkin'
And a runnin' 'round with men and goin' wild"
"And we don't believe you ought to be
A bringin' up your little girl this way"
And it was signed by the secretary
Harper Valley PTA
Well, it happened that the PTA
Was gonna meet that very afternoon
And boy were sure surprised
When Mrs. Johnson wore her miniskirt into the room
And as she walked up to the blackboard
I can still recall the words she had to say
She said, "I'd like to address this meeting
Of the Harper Valley PTA"
"Well, there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there
And seven times he asked me for a date
And Mrs. Taylor sure seems to use a lotta ice
Whenever he's away"
"And Mr. Baker, can you tell us
Why your secretary had to leave this town?
And shouldn't widow Jones be told
To keep her window shades all pulled completely down?"
"Well, Mr. Harper couldn't be here
'Cause he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again
And if you'll smell Shirley Thompson's breath
You'll find she's had a little nip of gin"
"And then you have the nerve to tell me
You think that as a mother I not fit
Well, this is just a little Payton Place
And you're all Harper Valley hypocrites"
No, I wouldn't put you on
Because it really did it happened just this way
That day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley PTA
That day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley PTA

"And then you have the nerve to tell me
You think that as a mother I not fit
Well, this is just a little Payton Place
And you're all Harper Valley hypocrites"
No, I wouldn't put you on
Because it really did it happened just this way
That day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley PTA
That day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley PTA

Harper Valley Pta
'Bout a Harper Valley widowed wife
Who had a teenage daughter
Who attended Harper Valley Junior High
Well, her daughter came home one afternoon
And didn't even stop to play
And she said, "Mom, I got a note here
From the Harper Valley PTA"
Well, the note says, "Mrs. Johnson
You're wearing your dresses way too high
It's reported you've been drinkin'
And a runnin' 'round with men and goin' wild"
"And we don't believe you ought to be
A bringin' up your little girl this way"
And it was signed by the secretary
Harper Valley PTA
Well, it happened that the PTA
Was gonna meet that very afternoon
And boy were sure surprised
When Mrs. Johnson wore her miniskirt into the room
And as she walked up to the blackboard
I can still recall the words she had to say
She said, "I'd like to address this meeting
Of the Harper Valley PTA"
"Well, there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there
And seven times he asked me for a date
And Mrs. Taylor sure seems to use a lotta ice
Whenever he's away"
"And Mr. Baker, can you tell us
Why your secretary had to leave this town?
And shouldn't widow Jones be told
To keep her window shades all pulled completely down?"
"Well, Mr. Harper couldn't be here
'Cause he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again
And if you'll smell Shirley Thompson's breath
You'll find she's had a little nip of gin"
"And then you have the nerve to tell me
You think that as a mother I not fit
Well, this is just a little Payton Place
And you're all Harper Valley hypocrites"
No, I wouldn't put you on
Because it really did it happened just this way
That day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley PTA
That day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley PTA

He'll Have To Stay
I've been waiting here tonight but not alone
You broke the date that we had made just yesterday
Now there's someone else who's here, he'll have to stay
I have found another love I know is true
And he holds me much more tenderly than you
Loving you's not worth the price I have to pay
Someone else is in your place, he'll have to stay.
Once I loved you with all my heart
But now I must say no
You broke my heart too many times
So now you'll have to go.
I can hear the jukebox playing soft and low
And you're out again with someone else, I know
My love was blind, i'm not your kind that's all I'll say
So you can hang up, I'm in his arms, he'll have to stay.
TAG: Now someone else is in your place, he'll have to stay.

Hear Me
Without a mirror, I see someone else
You're laughing at me 'cause you don't see my soul
You think the smile I wear says, I'm happy but you don't really know
Everyday's a fight
Soon I'll have no tears left here to cry
Jump to the words I speak
When will somebody hear me?
I'm talking, I'm pleading, I need you to understand me
I'm screaming at the top of my lungs, it's so hard
(Can't you hear me?)
Hear my lonely cry
(I need someone to love me)
Hear my lonely cry
Why can't you hear me?
I'm catching tear drops when I hear the phone ring
I wanna say so bad what's really wrong, what's hurting me?
I'm latching out, I'm breaking down feels like my life's crashed
In around me when I hear in the words I speak, can you help me?
Everyday's a fight
Soon I'll have no tears left here to cry
Jump to the words I speak
When will somebody hear me?
(Can you hear me?)
I'm talking, I'm pleading, I need you to understand me
I'm screaming at the top of my lungs, it's so hard
(Can't you hear me?)
Hear my lonely cry
(I need someone to love me)
Hear my lonely cry
Why can't you hear me?
Sometimes I wish, I could sleep forever
'Cause when I sleep my life is so much better
So busy trying to please, be what you want me to be
I dream when someone is gonna take care of me
I'm talking, I'm pleading, I need you to understand me
I'm screaming at the top of my lungs it's so hard
(Can't you hear me?)
(I need someone to love me)
Why can't you hear me?
Tell me it's gonna be alright
Oh, hear my cries, oh, please

Heart We Did All That We Could
I talked to him but I don't think he understood
So just forget about the plans that you were making
Heart we did all that we could
Don't blame these lips these hungry lips were pleading for you
They used all the tender words that they should
And if you break and fall apart I couldn't blame you
Heart we did all that we could
These misty eyes these tear filled eyes were picture taken
Grading all the memories that they could
They're the only thing you'll have when you're through breakin'
Heart we did all that we could heart we did all that we could

Heaven Help the Working Girl
I spend nearly half my life in this little dim cafe
I listen to their troubles, I'd try to be their friend
But heaven help the working girl in a world that's run by men
Oh, heaven help the working girl
Then goin' gets rough in this old world
Filled with men who spend their time
Tellin' lies, breathin' sighs, gettin' wise
Havin' cries and drinkin' too much wine
Thank you, sir, you're very kind, I think I'll pass this time
We'd both be sorry if I did go home to your wife and your kids
It's just the bottle talkin', I'm familiar with that sound
Oh, heaven help the working girl till true love comes around
Oh, heaven help the working girl
Then goin' gets rough in this old world
Filled with men who spend their time
Tellin' lies, breathin' sighs, gettin' wise
Havin' cries and drinkin' too much wine

Heaven's in New York
Go out the way I came in
So innocent, so pure, with no thoughts of insecurity
Live life to the fullest, be what I wanna be
Last day on earth I tell my momma, don't cry
I'll see my daddy in paradise
Where the blind can see, the mute can talk
The crippled can walk but for now Heaven's in New York
Heaven's in New York
I need a ticket to New York
First thing I'd do is go back in time
Take the Twin Towers, put it back in the skyline
Tell my girl, two wrongs still don't make a right
Make love for the last time under the candlelight
Pick up my homies at the gentleman club
After that hit the pub, reminisce on the high school days
Man, I sucked as a quarterback remember getting sacked
Man, I almost broke my back
If it was my last day on earth, treat it like my first
Go out the way I came in
So innocent, so pure, with no thoughts of insecurity
Live life to the fullest, be what I wanna be
Last day on earth I tell my girl, don't cry
I'm with my daddy in paradise
Where the blind can see, the mute can talk
The crippled can walk but for now Heaven's in New York
Heaven's in New York
I need a ticket to New York
Heaven's in New York
Heaven's in New York
I'd tell the man, give the people a tax break
Kids, stop shootin', I can't sing it no more ways
I can't take the money with me so I caught a movie
Favorite actress, Angelina Jolie
Favorite singer got to be Marley
Turn up the bass and move to the styling
I can't go without reading my daughter a bedtime story
The heavens is calling
If it was my last day on earth, treat it like my first
Go out the way I came in
So innocent, so pure, with no thoughts of insecurity
Live life to the fullest, be what I wanna be
Last day on earth I'd tell my homies, don't cry
I'm with my daddy in paradise
Where the blind can see, the mute can talk
The crippled can walk but for now Heaven's in New York
Heaven's in New York
I need a ticket to New York
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I feel no fear for you are with me, yeah
So tell my loved ones, please don't cry
'Cause if doves can fly so can I
If it was my last day on earth, treat it like my first
Go out the way I came in
So innocent, so pure, with no thoughts of insecurity
Live life to the fullest, be what I wanna be
Last day on earth I'd tell my homies don't frown
I'm with my daddy in paradise
Where the blind can see, the mute can talk
The crippled can walk but for now Heaven's in New York
Heaven's in New York
I need a ticket to New York
Heaven's in New York
Heaven's in New York
Yeah, this one goes out to all my refugees
That leave the land where they from
And come to the land of the free
But don't forget once you get that dream
Take it back to your country and give 'em a piece of that inspiration
I need a ticket to New York

Heela
I was lost inside
'Till he said to me
You've got a lovely smile
And i'm saved
Saved
And I'm saved
And I'm saved
Heal me with his hands
Heal me with his heart
When he said to me
No no we never part
P.J Harvey : Heal me with his hands / J. Parish : Well she feels though she had my paradise
P.J Harvey : Heal with his heart / J. Parish : She was a hula girl, she got her hair done nice
P.J Harvey : When he said to me / J. Parish : She said "i'll give it all I got to my heela man
P.J Harvey : No no we never part / J. Parish : He put his hands on me, showed me what I am"
P.J Harvey / J. Parish : And I'm saved
When I got that heela by my side
And I push him daylight, push him night

Help Me Make It Through the Night
Shake it loose and let it fall
Laying soft against your skin
Like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side
Till the early morning light
All I'm taking is your time
Help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong
And I won't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
Lord, tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night
It's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night
I don't wanna be alone
Help me make it through the night

Henry Lee
( nick cave )
Get down, get down, little henry lee
And stay all night with me
You won't find a girl in this damn world
That will compare with me
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
I can't get down and i won't get down
And stay all night with thee
For the girl i have in that merry green land
I love far better than thee
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
She leaned herself against a fence
Just for a kiss or two
And with a little pen-knife held in her hand
She plugged him through and through
And the wind did roar and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
Come take him by his lilly-white hands
Come take him by his feet
And throw him in the deep deep well
Which is more than one hundred feet
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee
Lie there, lie there, little henry lee
Till the flesh drops from your bones
For the girl you have in that merry green land
Can wait forever for you to come home
And the wind did howl and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on henry lee

Hey Girl
This is the life of a night walker
Hey girl, the party’s on the floor
What you doin' in the back of the club smokin’ bud?
Hey girl, she said, “I owe my pimp money
If I don’t pay him tonight, then it’s gonna get uglyâ€
Hey girl, she said, “There is no excuse
This is the life of a prostituteâ€
From the club to your ride, straight to the telly
To make money, money, make money, money, money
There she goes again the [Incomprehensible] Ethiopian
See her walkin' by, but I can’t believe what happened
She jumpin' in a car with a stranger she don’t know
Movin' at night time, whatever it takes to get the dough
Hey girl, I hope you listen to this song
I know you feel like your daddy did you wrong
But only you can boot your destiny
She said, “Thanks for the advice but I got to make my moneyâ€
Hey girl, the party’s on the floor
What you doin' in the back of the club smokin’ bud?
Hey girl, she said, “I owe my pimp money
If I don’t pay him tonight, then it’s gonna get uglyâ€
Hey girl, she said, “There is no excuse
This is the life of a prostituteâ€
From the club to your ride, straight to the telly
To make money, money, make money, money, money
So hey girl, I can see it all in ya eye
Everythin' you cry is wholesome in your life
How many men you done let between your thighs?
Listen ma, there ain’t no surprise
You’re a street walker, slick talker
The face of an hour, the terrible night
And do anythin' just to survive
When you make fun at me, I’m tryin' to stay alive
Hey girl, the party’s on the floor
What you doin' in the back of the club smokin’ bud?
Hey girl, she said, “I owe my pimp money
If I don’t pay him tonight, then it’s gonna get uglyâ€
Hey girl, she said, “There is no excuse
This is the life of a prostituteâ€
From the club to your ride, straight to the telly
To make money, money, make money, money, money
This one goes out for
Diamonds, China, Phoenix, Belinda
Delicious, Star, Mercedes, peaches
Vanilla, cocoa, cinnamon, icky
Ebony, oh I can’t forget India
Ecstasy, sparkle, fantasia, Francis
Sunshine, Vanessa, precious
Haitian Madonna, you’re so precious girl
Don’t let yourself go dirty
Hey girl, the party’s on the floor
What you doin' in the back of the club smokin’ bud?
Hey girl, she said, “I owe my pimp money
If I don’t pay him tonight, then it’s gonna get uglyâ€

Highway '61 Revisited
( bob dylan )
Well, god said to abraham "kill me a son"
Abe said "man, you must be putting me on"
God said "no"
Abe said "wha?t"
God said "you do what you want to, abe but
The next time you see me coming, you'd better run"
Abe said "where do you want this killing done?"
God said "out on that highway 61"
Well, georgia sam he had a bloody nose
Welfare department would give him no clothes
He asked poor howard "where can i go?"
Howard said "there's only one place i know"
Sam said "quick man, tell me, i got to run"
Howard just pointed with his gun
He said "that way down on 61"
"well, mack the finger" said louie the king
"i got 40 red white and blue shoe strings
And a thousand telephones that won't ring
You know where i can get rid of these things?"
And he said "now let me think for a minute son"
Said "yes that can be easily done
Just take them down on that 61"
That highway
Highway x4
Now the fifth daughter on the twelfth night
Told the first father that things weren't right
"my complexion" she said "is much too white"
He said "come here and stare up into the light"
And said "mmm you're right. let me tell the second mother it's been done"
But the second mother with the seventh son
They were out on that highway 61
Now, the roving gambler was very bored
Trying to create the next world war
And he found a promoter, fell on the floor
And said "i've never engaged in this kind of thing before
But yep, i think it can be easily done"
Highway
"we'll just put some bleachers there out in the sun
Have it out on that 61"

Hitting the ground
By my life and a photographic sound
I was filled with love, I was filled with rage
My life book shook with the turning of it's page
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain't no friend round, never be found
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain't no-one there to help you come down
I was not on drugs, I was not on beer
I was still with love, I was full of fear
If I asked the question, life will tell no lie
Love will ask the question are you willing to die
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain't no friend round, never be found
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain't no-one there to help you come down
I'm gonna go way up in an aeroplane
I'm gonna go way out insane
I don't know if I'd ever come down
I don't know if I can reach the ground
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain't no friend round, never be found
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain't no-one there to help you come down
I'm gonna go way up in an aeroplane
I'm gonna go way out insane
I don't know if I'd ever come down
I don't know if I can reach the ground
I was beaten up, I was beaten down
By my life and a photographic sound
I was filled with love, I was filled with rage
My life book shook with the turning of it's page
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain't no friend round, never be found
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain't no-one there to help you come down

Hollyhood to Hollywood
(The ride, the ride)
Yes black, where's my jewels at?
(Uptown)
Yo, let's get back to the hardcore right now
Underground hip-hop yo
This one's a gangsta tune, whassup Fosha?
I'm a send this one out to all the refugee gangs around the world
Signal, signal, y'all need to chill with the driveby's
It was the Fourth of July I heard the cherry bomb bang
Stay in the house that's the sound of the gangs, Clef
By the time we figured out what happened
I was in an ambulance tellin' my cousin, "Keep breathing"
Don't wear your colors here, that cemetery gear
I got my gun and nine, killing's my appetite
(But that ain't right y'all)
Don't wear your colors here, that cemetery gear
(California, California)
I got my gun and nine from Hollywood, to your neck of the hood
(True, true)
Yo, Hollywood got a lot of kids twisted
Jumpin' in and out of limos thinkin' it's them that's really gifted
The only gift y'all possess is workin' with the triple six's
Y'all disguise yourself with bandannas and diamond necklaces
Mosta y'all can't even go back to the hood where y'all grew up
Actin' like y'all drink alcohol when all y'all do is throw up
Talk about when y'all blow up y'all gonna visit the project floors
But the last time they saw y'all was 1984
Now y'all wonder, why they got all hoodies screamin' "Freeze"
Get out the Navigator, Godfather 3's in the DVD they hoppin'
They take your car for a spin, it's cold outside so all you feel is the wind
There's no celly phone, so you can't phone home
Oh lord, here come those criminals, Maleeg and Jerome
("Yo, who you know here, you got family over here?")
He a rap artist
("I don't care, he got the wrong colors over here, no fear")
Now you look shook like that Mobb Deep song
I'm surprised, 'cause on all y'all records you was Al Capone
And come to find out that you never held a chrome
And you escaped the draft and never bust a shot in Vietnam
Now you standin' in the form amongst the children of the corn
Like the Son of Man stood with a crown made of thorns
The only difference is for you there'll be no resurrection
'Cause it's a traffic jam, they got you locked up in a intersection
Don't wear your colors here, that cemetery gear
(Colors)
I got my gun and nine, killing's my appetite
(But that ain't right y'all)
Don't wear your colors here
(Colors)
That cemetery gear
(Chicago, Chicago)
I got my gun and nine from Hollywood, to your neck of the hood
Yo, Hollywood has half-man be hollow to you
How could you have slipped through
While I was detecting the trick that's in you
Pretending you pitbull, when really your candy-ass is poodle
We wouldn't of hit you, hammers have already been
Cocked and cleaned, yo, it was who?
It's click-up, click-up, north cackus, commence to stick up
That's what's within us, cack and lack, clap, buck killers quicker
Stick up the forest misters then head up to chickens with 'em
Adrenaline's givin', when I riff with the fifth to your chin-in
You never knew bout how we play these innings
But you about to play the commission
Waves are spinning, I'm out the glaze I'm shing
The real is missing but the fraud is evident, ever so clear
But you got the nerd to come around here with pounds of fear
Your colors wrong, you must rock edible dons with that huh?
Damn Paul, what's that huh? Let me get that, with the quick snatch
If it's a little man in you then I better put the trick back
And if it's anything killers is fearing, I know my clip stacked for realer
Don't wear your colors here, that cemetery gear
(Colors)
I got my gun and nine, killing's my appetite
(But that ain't right y'all)
Don't wear your colors here
(Colors)
That cemetery gear
(Detroit, Detroit)
I got my gun and nine from Hollywood, to your neck of the hood
Tell the FBI that I won't be home tonight
Tell the Secret Service I won't be home tonight
Colors, put away your colors woh, colors

("Yo, who you know here, you got family over here?")
He a rap artist
("I don't care, he got the wrong colours over here, no fear")
Now you look shook like that Mobb Deep song
I'm surprised, cause on all y'all records you was Al Capone
And come to find out that you never held a chrome
And you escaped the draft and never bust a shot in Vietnam
Now you standin in the form amongst the children of the corn
Like the Sun of Man stood with a crown made of thorns
The only difference is for you there'll be no resurrection
Cause it's a traffic jam, they got you locked up in a intersection
Don't wear your colors here, that cemetery gear
I got my gun and nine, killing's my appetite
(But that ain't right y'all)
Don't wear your colors here! (Colors)
That cemetery gear (Chicago, Chicago)
I got my gun and nine from Hollywood, to your neck of the hood
Yo, Hollywood has half-man be hollow to you
How could you have slipped through
While I was detecting the trick that's in you
Pretending you pitbull, when really your candy-ass is poodle
We wouldn't of hit you, hammers have already been
Cocked and cleaned, yo, it was who?
It's click-up, click-up, north cackus, commence to stick up
That's what's within us, cack and lack, clap, buck killers quicker
Stick up the forest misters then head up to chickens with 'em
Adrenaline's givin, when I riff with the fifth to your chin-in
You never knew bout how we play these innings
But you about to play the commission
Waves are spinning, I'm out the glaze I'm sh ing
The real is missing but the fraud is evident
Ever so clear, but you got the nerd to come around here with pounds of fear
Your colors wrong you must rock edible dons with that huh?
Damn Paul, what's that huh?
Let me get that, with the quick snatch
If it's a little man in you then I better put the trick back
And if it's anything killers is fearing, I know my clit stacked for realer
Don't wear your colours here, that cemetery gear
I got my gun and nine, killing's my appetite
(But that ain't right y'all)
Don't wear your colors here! (Colors)
That cemetery gear (Detroit, Detroit)
I got my gun and nine from Hollywood, to your neck of the hood
Tell the FBI that I won't be home tonight
Tell the Secret Service I won't be home tonight
Colors, put away your colours whoa, colors

I was blind
I was lame
I was nothing
'till you came
You said "babe,
Make you sing
Make you feel
Like some queen"
Said "i'll take you kathleen
To your home and mine"
Lord, he hooked me
Fish hook and line
And rode in fucking mad (?)
With a halo of deep black
'til my love made me gag
Call him daddy, take my hand
Said "i'll take you kathleen
To your home and mine"
Good lord, he hooked me
Fish hook and line
I'm hooked
Oh higher
Oh beautful
Oh higher
Oh beautiful
Oh higher
Now i'm blind and i'm lame
Left with nothing but his stain
"daddy your maid, she can't sing
She can't feel, she's no queen!"
Said "i'll take you kathleen
To your home and mine"
Lord he hooked me
Fish hook and line
Said "i'll take you kathleen
To your home and mine"
Good lord he hooked me
'leen out of time

Horses In My Dreams
Horses in my dreams
Like waves, like the sea
They pull out of here
They pull, they are free
Rode a horse 'round the world
Along the tracks of a train
Broke the record, found the gold
Set myself free again
I have pulled myself clear
I have pulled myself clear
I have pulled myself clear silent
I have pulled myself clear
Horses in my dreams
Like waves, like the sea
On the tracks of a train
Set myself free again
I have pulled myself clear
I have pulled myself clear
I have pulled myself clear silent
I have pulled myself clear

However You Want It
Hook:
However you want it, you don't want it, cuz when you get it it hurts
Your body carried out the church
Mom, she be cryin holdin on to her purse sayin... (oh my baby!)
They shoulda took me first
However you want it, you don't want it, cuz when you get it it hurts
Your body carried out the church
Mom, she be cryin holdin on to her purse sayin... (oh...)
[verse 1]
Aiyyo
What y'all thought i was too busy writin songs with whitney houston
Cuz *my love's your love* will be my slugs wit blood
For any thug that wanna bang and play orangutang
Find yourself in the river with the rest of them
Wake up, wake up, i'm in a nightmare dream
Where i found myself loadin magazines after magazines
Ski mask on my face, gun on my waist
Fine pens shakin in my hand as i write this next line
You look strange, shootin victims at close range
And saw his vein burst from his neck, as i snatched his chain
Is this a bible, i used to read the gospel
Until i got betrayed by one of my twelve disciples
Which one, look through the crowd son
You could spot the traitor wit a tatto on his arm
The symbol is a microphone, an intellectual
A wannabe rakim, but too extraterrestrial
I heard he's lethal and i'm too rusty to battle him
Me being rusty is like biggie not being *born again*
It never happen, watch who you call fam
On mtv, he painted himself as the tin man
Predicted platinum, way before it happened
So that's why when you ship gold, you only sold aluminum
And now you wanna tell everybody i messed up your record?
C'mon!
Hook
[verse 2]
You a thug? you aint a murderer, just an undercover caligula
Cuz when you saw the luger became silent like caesar
Enough of this rap stuff, sedeck take his watch
If i wasn't rappin, i'd take that stash in your left socks
Don't make me raise my voice cuz i'm masterin a coo
So, and besides when they find you you'll be bones
Mom say watch my peers, hangin like chandeliers
Orderin don p, you couldn't pay for one beer
Perpetratin, a fraud, oh god, you aint hard
Take thirty of y'all to murder one kid on the boulevard
You want wyclef jean, bring your same thug guys
Here's my advice, leave the ring with your bride
Cuz you aint comin back no more
We gon send you to a vacation for two, with crabs on the seashore
You freeze up, hold up i really thought you was psychotic
Is that tears in your eyes? you cryin for your life
Kid you tellin me what you did, you didn't wanna do
Watch what you say on record cuz it might come true
Hook
Outro:
Should i take them? should i wait?
Should i take them? should i wait?
Should i take them? should i wait?
I say *no woman, no cry* like i should own a piece of the estate
But at the tribute they didn't invite me
So i put in a call to halis alassi
He said be easy, aint no need to bust a shot (blow! blow! blow! blow!)
Like supercat said, yo the ghetto's red hot
Before bling, bling, bling it was bling, bling, bling!

Human Face, Divine
It is all done wrong, or so it appears.
It is all done right.
Eternal eyes.
I am pressing on no matter how it looks.
It is all planned out.
Understatement.
Lay your hands on your mouth.
Negativity.
I don't want to hear it.
Your cursed tongue.
This is greater than you.
This is greater than me.
Flawless.
Increase time and it will all fall into place.
I don't care about surroundings.
I don't care about wicked words.
I don't care about surroundings.
I don't care about desire.
I don't care because it is a waste of my time.
Don't sell out.
It all comes to these words, a battle field inside my mind.
Shall i take her or leave her.
I will site my sites north.
I will not feed it doubt.
I will not be cursed by doubt or a concubine wife.

I Didn't Mean to Turn You On [DVD]
I knew what you were all about
But when I did
I didn't mean to turn you on
Now I bring you home
You told me goodnight's not enough for you
I'm sorry baby
I didn't mean to turn you on
No, I didn't mean to turn you on
You read me wrong
I wasn't trying to lead you on
Not like you think
I didn't mean to turn you on
I know you expecting a one night stand
When I refused I knew you wouldn't understand
I'm sorry baby
I didn't mean to turn you on
I told you twice
I was only trying to be nice
Only trying to be nice
Ooh, I didn't mean to turn you on
Babe now why should I
Feel guilty 'cause I won't give
Guilty 'cause I won't give in
I didn't mean to turn you on
Ooh, I didn't mean to turn you on
When I took you out
I knew what you were all about
But when I did
I didn't mean to turn you on
No, I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on
I didn't mean to turn you on

I Don't Remember
When I hear his name, I'm not to blame if lonesome heartache start
I don't remember how I loved him when my dreams came through an end
If the teardrop falls it's just because a memory slipped in
I can't recall the way I cried when he made me second choice
I don't remember how I tried to erase the sound of his voice
I'd like to make myself believe, this I know that lying is a sin
So each night I pray, I'll see the day I don't remember him
I can't recall the way I cried when he made me second choice
I don't remember how I tried to erase the sound of his voice
I'd like to make myself believe, this I know that lying is a sin
So each night, I pray I'll see the day I don't remember him

I Don't See How I Can Make It
I woke up today, and found that you had left me
But I wasn't so surprised to see you gone
I could see for quite a while that it was coming
But I don't see how I can make it with you gone
I can't read the find-a-friend, that's in our contract
Read a needle twenty faces from it's sight
See the Leaning Tower of Pizza in perfection
But I don't see how I can make it with you gone
I remember when you said, I love you, truly
Said our vows of love till death would separate
I can see the days ahead are blue tomorrows
But I don't see how I can make it with you gone
I can't read the find-a-friend, that's in our contract
Read a needle twenty faces from it's sight
See the Leaning Tower of Pizza in perfection
No, I don't see how I can make it with you gone

I dream of Jeannie
Born like a vapor on the summer air
I see her tripping where the bright streams play
Happy as the daisies that dance on her way.
Many were the wild notes her merry voice would pour,
Many were the blithe birds that warbled them o'er
I dream of Jeannie with the light brown hair
Floating like a vapor on the soft, summer air.
I long for Jeanie with the daydawn smile,
Radiant in gladness, warm with winning guile,
I hear her melodies, like joys gone by,
Sighing 'round my heart o'er the fond hopes that die
Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain,
Wailing for the lost one that comes not again.
I long for Jeanie with my heart boys low,
Never more to find her where the bright waters flow.
I sigh for Jeanie, but her light form strayed
Far from the fond hearts 'round her native glade;
Her smiles have vanished and her sweet songs flown,
Flitting like the dreams that have cheered us and gone,
Now the nodding wild flow'rs may wither on the shore
While her gentle fingers will cull them no more
Oh! I sigh for Jeanie with the light brown hair,
Floating, like a vapor, on the soft summer air.

I Learned It All from You
If I break your heart and make you blue
If I know just what to do to make you cry
Dear, it's because I learned it all from you
I once was so loving and so good to you
Then you taught me sorrow and unkindness too
I admit, I've changed but there's a reason
It's because I learned it all from you
If you hear I've done you wrong don't be surprised now
Most anything you hear now could be true
I tried so hard so long that I've stopped carin'
All because I learned it all from you
I learned how to bring you pain and hurt your pride
I know how to make you think you'll die inside
If I know just what to do to make you cry
Dear, it's because I learned it all from you

I Let a Song Go Out of My Heart
It was the sweetest melody
I know, I lost Heaven 'cause you were the song
Since you and I have drifted apart
Life doesn't mean a thing to me
Please come back, sweet music, I know I was wrong
Am I too late to make amends?
You know that we were meant to be more than just friends
Just friends
I let a song go out of my heart
Believe me, darlin', when I say
I won't know sweet music until you return some day
Am I too late to make amends?
You know that we were meant to be more than just friends
Just friends
I let a song go out of my heart
Believe me, darlin', when I say
I won't know sweet music until you return some day
I won't know sweet music until you return some day

I Love Being Here With You
Be poetic about it, alright
I love the east, I love the west
And north and south, they're both the best
But I'll only go there as a guest
'Cause I love being here with you
I love the sea, I love the shore
I love the rocks but what is more?
With you they'd never be a bore
'Cause I love being here with you
Singin' in the shower, laughin' by the hour
Life is such a breezy game
Love all kinds of weather, as long we're together
I love to hear you say my name
I like good wine and fine cuisine
And candle light, I like the scene
But baby, if you know what I mean
'Cause I love being here with you
I love being here with you
I like a dance by Fred Astaire
And Brando's eyes, Yul Brynner's hair
But I think to tell you's only fair
That I love being here with you
And Cary Grant, oh do-dah-day
His utter charm takes me away
But don't get me wrong, how do you say
I love being here with you
Oh, Basie's band's a-swingin', I like Ella singin'
'Cause there's something else, you know
They know how to say it, they know how to play it
They wind it up and let it go
I love the thrill of New York shows
I'd love to Durante's nose
But I'd like to say before I close, yeah, yeah
I just love, baby I love, well, I love being here with you

I Love You Because
Every single thing I try to do
You're always there to lend a helping hand dear
I love you most of all because you're you
No matter what the world may say about me
I know your love will always see me through
I love you for the way you never doubt me
But most of all I love you cause you're you
I love you because my heart is lighter
Every time I'm walking by your side
I love you because my future's brighter
The door to happiness you've opened wide
No matter what may be the style or season
I know your heart will always be true
I love you for a hundred thousand reasons
But most of all I love you cause you're you

I Saw The Light
Then Jersus came like a stranger in the night praise the Lord I saw the light
I saw the light I saw the light no more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight praise the Lord I saw the light
Just like a blind man I wandered along worries and fears I claimed for my own
Then like a blind man God gave back his sight praise the Lord I saw the light
I saw the light...

I was a fool to wander and stray straight is the gate and narrow's the way
Now I have traded the wrong for the right praise the Lord I saw the light
I saw the light...

I Used To Hate Cell Phones But Now I Hate Car Accidents
You have created this drama.
You're Dancing around the truth.
My God rain down power.
My God rain down fire.
War.
With these diamonds you cut your throat.
Code red. Cut throat victim.
The outside looks so good.
It is so simple and yet they don't find.
It is so simple and yet they don't mind.
The tragedy is the ignorance behind the clean casket.
On the outside they look so good.
They're walking to wall street in a straight jacket.

I'd rather die young than grow old without you
So don't ever leave me whatever you do
Though others may tempt you and tell you they care
You'll find only sorrow in a secret affair

Please, tell me you love me let me call you my own

My arms grow cold thinking for you
No one can take your place, darling
In my embrace I'll never be free
And when my lips burn with desire
No other kiss put up the fire
Though I may try and try
No one can satisfy this longing in me
I'll never be free from your smile
So tender the sweet surrender in your eyes
How can I be free when I still remember
How you could thrill me with a sigh?
Just like a chain bound to my heart
Your love remain when we're apart
Each kiss I gave to you made me a slave to you
I'll never be free, I'll never be free [unverified]

I'll Thank You All My Life
And saying you love me
You'll never know just what it means
That from my past
I'm free for seeing the real me
Believe my lonely gaitest guys
For looking right into my heart
I'll thank you all my life
I saw you in a crowd that night
You were different from the start
I fell for you but never hoped that I could win
Your heart, I'll ask the good Lord up above
I'll ask him every night
Who make me worthy of your love
I'll thank you all my life
Oh I'll love you a thousand years
And faithful I will be for giving me a love that's real
A dream that I can see
Once down the wrong road I was led
By faithless love and life
For making me believe again
I'll thank you all my life
For house that's ours
And I don't care if it is large or small
Some boys and girls that I don't care
If they are short or tall
For overlooking what I've been
My past and wasted life
And giving all of this to me
I'll thank you all my life

I'm a little bit red in the eyes
A little bit hurt in the heart
A little bit weary in the soul
But I'm alright, I'm alright
You mean I'm worth the dime it took
To call me on the phone
Since when are you concerned
About the way things are at home
I'm doing fine without you
Thank you, me and the dog and the cat
I don't care what you're doing
And I careless where you're at
I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm a little bit red in the eyes
A little bit hurt in the heart
A little bit weary in the soul
But I'm alright, I'm alright
The beds are made, my clothes are clean
There's groceries on the shelf
You're not here to take care of me
So I found somebody else
No, I don't go out very much
But I date the girl who does
She comes over here and loves me
Honey, I ain't the fool I was
But I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm a little bit red in the eyes
A little bit hurt in the heart
A little bit weary in the soul
But I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm a little bit red in the eyes
A little bit hurt in the heart
A little bit weary in the soul

I'm the only one I know

In my tribe
I go out seal hunting with my best friend Tarka
But all I wanna do is get into his parka
I'm the only gay eskimo

Well .. me an nut fluck chuck buck, we both like blubber
But me I've got this crazy fetish for rubber
I'm the only gay eskimo
In my tribe
I make a wish on the northern lights
That I could get a decent pair of whale skin tights
I'm the only gay eskimo
In my tribe
And the seals they sing now
*seal noises*
These cold winter nights are taking their toll
I even get excited when I see the north pole
See the north pole
I'm the only gay eskimo
I'm the only one I know
I'm the only gay eskimo

If (Jeannie's Song)
Washin' all your dirty hair
And you're wonderin' how long
Till they come for you
Watch the lines form on your face
And down the block all the people chase
Just what you were after
Before this happened to you
And if I could be the chains
I'd fall from you
And let you fly to the angels
If I could be your pain
I'd run from you, so far away
If I could turn the time back just one day
It might just be enough to say
All the things I never said to you
Make the plans to fall in place
Only to fall behind in the race
And you can't keep up
And I know that it pisses you off
And your roller coaster climbs the hill
Up and down, it sure does feel
A bit too much
Are you ready to get off?
If I could be the chains
I'd fall from you
And let you fly like an angel
If I could be the pain
I'd run from you, so far away
If I could turn the time back just one day
It might just be enough to say
All the things I've never said to you
(To you)
And what you don't know won't hurt you
What you don't show will kill you
What you don't know won't hurt you
What you don't show will kill you
And what you don't know won't hurt you
What you won't show will kill you
What you don't know wont' hurt you at all
If I could be the chains
I'd fall from you
And let you fly like an angel
If I could be the pain
I'd run from you so far away
If I could turn the time back just one day
It might just be enough to say
All the things I never said to you
(To you)
Never said to you
(What you don't know won't hurt you)
(What you don't show will kill you)
(What you don't know won't hurt you)
No, no, no, no, no
(What you don't show will kill you)
Never said to you, to you, to you

If I Was President
Election time is comin'
(Chorus}
If I was President
I'd get elected on Friday,
Assassinated on Saturday,
And buried on Sunday
If I was President.
If I was President....
An Old man told me
Instead of spending Billions on the war,
We could use some of that money in the Ghetto.
I know some so poor
When it rains that's when they shower,
Screamin fight the power
That's when the vulture devoured.
(Chorus)
The Radio won't play this
They call it rebel music.
How can you refuse it Children of Moses?
{Chorus}
Tell the children the truth, the truth
Christopher Columbus didn't discover America.
Tell them the truth, the truth, yeah.
Tell them about Marcus Garvey.
Tell them the truth, yeah the truth
Tell them about Martin Luther King.
Tell them the truth, the truth
Tell them about JFK.
{Chorus}
If i was President.
{Spoken}
That's the truth right there

If It's All The Same To You
I don't think I'll hang around and let you hurt me anymore
If it's all the same to you if your love has really gone
Pardon me while I walk out pick up my heart and move along
I'll bet somewhere I'll find someone I can thrill with my kiss
If it's all the same to you and I sadly think it is
[ piano ]
If it's all the same to you if your love has really gone...
I sadly think it is

If Only Tonight We Could Sleep [Jean Costas Studio Demo][Instrumental]
In a bed made of flowers
If only tonight we could fall
In a deathless spell
If only tonight we could slide
Into deep black water
And breathe
And breathe
Then an angel would come
With burning eyes like stars
And bury us deep
In his velvet arms
And the rain would cry
As our faces slipped away
And the rain would cry
Don't let it end
Don't let it end

If Teardrops Were Silver
Then I'd be a clown
If loneliness was happiness
I could sure spread some round
If hurting was like heaven
There'd be no wings like mine
If teardrops were silver
Oh, how I'd shine
If loving you was good for me
I'd be the picture of health
And if missing you was riches
I'd own the world and all its wealth
And if wanting you was wisdom
I'd be the wisest and then
I'd know why I lost you
And could win your love again
But hurting's not heaven
It's more like someplace else
But hurting is the one thing
That I do so well
Yes, if heartaches were funny
I could laugh all the time
And if teardrops were silver
Oh how I'd shine
If teardrops were silver
Oh, how I'd shine

If You Can Live With It
You say, you're gonna leave me, pack up and go
You don't wanna hurt me, but you've just gotta have him
And how will I take it you want to know
Well, if you can live with it, I can live without it
If you can face your conscience, I can face my pride
If you can live with it, I can live without it
'Cause I did the only thing I could do, baby, I tried
Can you really take your rings off without feeling kinda dirty?
Can you really kiss him while you're wearing my name?
Can you run your fingers all across his body
Without missin' me a little and feeling ashamed?
If you can live with it, I can live without it
If you can face your conscience, I can face my pride
If you can live with it, I can live without it
'Cause I did the only thing I could do, baby, I tried

If You Haven't You Can't Feel The Way I Do
Have you ever missed someone like I'm missing you
Have you ever cried the whole night through
If you haven't you can't feel the way that I do
Don't tell me it's silly to sit here and cry you can't understand if I want to die
Have you ever lost someone just like I lost you
If you haven't you can't feel the way that I do
[ piano ]
Have you ever been cheated like you cheated me
Have you ever been told someone's used to be
Have you ever gone through just what I've gone through
If you haven't you can't feel the way that I do
Don't tell me it's silly...

If You Were Losing Him To Me
But once I've given him to you what is left for me
You say that he don't love me but now that may be true
But if you were losing him to me I wonder what you'd do
If you were losing everything that made your world go round
Would you hang on till he'd forgot the other love he'd found
Or would you really let him go the way you want me to
If you were losing him to me I wonder what you'd do
[ guitar ]
You've had your stolen moments but how can they compare
With the many ups and downs that we have had to share
I want him to be happy even if it means with you
But if you were losing him to me I wonder what you'd do
If you were losing everything...

We'll spread joy oh boy oh boy and we'll spread it right
We'll have more fun baby all way down the line
If you've got the money honey I've got the time
[ piano ]
Well if you've got the money I've got the time
We'll go honky tonkin' and we'll have a time
Bring along your cadillac leave my old wreck behind
If you've got the money honey I've got the time
Yes we'll go honky tonkin' and we'll be pleasure bent

If you run short of money I'll run short of time
Cause you with no more money honey I've no more time
If you've got the money...

Illusion (featuring Wyclef Jean & Pras)
Went from a dream to the young supremes searching for a destiny that's mine
There's another place another time
Touching many hearts along the way yeah
Hoping that i'll never have to say
Boy i love you but i gotta let you go
Chorus :
Everyday in my mind is confusion
Thoughts of you bring illusion
Trapped in a world only you get in
My minds playing tricks on me again
Daze in my mind is confusion
Thoughts of you bring illusion
Trapped in a world only you get in
My minds playing tricks on me again
Follow your emotions everywhere
Is there really magic in the air
Never let your feeling let you down
Open up your eyes and look around
Boy i love you but i gotta let you go
Chorus
Can it be a picture in my mind
Never sure exactly what i'll find
Only in my dreams i turn you own
Here for just a moment then you're gone
Chorus
(pras) i don't write love song
Leave it up to luther vandross
How i choose to live you don't wanna know the course
I pay to be the boss hear it straight from the source
Fortune 500 is how i like to gloss
Hot shot koni style joyride
Blowing candles in the wind like princess di
Could that be, mom tell me how you really like it
We can fly high i be your co-pilot
Hey yo, back to the girl with all the razamatazz
Hey yo, i love you shorty
You talkin all that jazz
Boy i love you but i gotta let you go
I know you want me, but you play me like the lotto
Use and abuse me so there won't be no friction
I gotta leave i can't be in this illusion
Repeat chorus till end

In a silent violent way
How many roads have I crossed again
With a friendly grin all over my face
It's a favourite old trick of mine
I knew you'd let me down in a silent violent way
My eyes, they're in the back of my head
How I'd love to look straight ahead
Not over my shoulder
It's an old favourite trick of mine
I knew you'd lket me down in a silent violent way
The tap drps on the verdigris
With every drop it seems to me
I've been here before

In The Zone
I believe in miracles
Where you from?
You sexy thing (you sexy thing, you)
I believe in miracles
Since you came along
You sexy thing
[Wyclef]
Uno, dos (check it out), tres, cuatro
I woke up in a dream, Wyclef and Ivy Queen
Drinkin with your Hennessey, you spit on Louis the XIII
I ain't tipsy but C-O-P stopped me
Cause I'm with Omar, a Puerto Rican with a Lamborghini
Ole, ole but this ain't a bullfight
Late at night, I'm gonna bring the fright of Poltergeist
Looked at me through the shades,
Tried to play me like a hermit
I looked at Omar and said, "Yo pass me my gun permit"
[Ivy Queen]
Todas las culturas se unen esta vez
Representando los Boricuas junto a Wyclef
Queena es mi nombre el original Borinquen
De tal manera demuestro como, so come again
[Chorus]
Yes, Queena, de que es al pa' ahi
Que no se olvide de que es la ley
Vamos celebrar en el tola y va cantando
Y combate lo que me pertenece
[Wyclef]
Hey where you from Ivy Queen?
[Ivy Queen]
Puerto Rico, One time!
[Wylcef]
Hey yo all my thug cats, back to the crime
Hey where you from Ivy Queen?
[Ivy Queen]
Puerto Rico, One time!
[Samples from beginning]
[Wyclef]
He looked at my permit and said, "Get out the car"
I'm about to bring the earth, wind, and fire life from Shining Star
Looked at him bizarre, I said, "Hell no"
The music got tense in a place called el barrio
[Ivy Queen]
Representan no de maneras, man
No hay colo-nias que nos detengan
La-tinos, vengan, siempre sobresalen
A los americanos demostrando lo que saben
Come again, yeah
[Chorus x2]
[Wyclef]
Ivy Queen, there was no one around the street
Was like ghost town, six cop cars, one black, one Porto Rican
I ain't a shook one, so I got out the car
I close my eyes, son, I'm waitin for police to blast one
[Ivy Queen]
Te digo lo que ?, demuestro lo que doy
A (yeah) todos los hermanos habran pasos te voy
Que no dejes, que no crees que vengo esta vez
La Queena, una vez mas, para hacer lasos entender
[Chorus x2]
[Wyclef]
Yo, check the story, I thought I was dead (Oh shit)
Here comes Ivy, in a black Beemer
Pumpin this in my Rivera
Cast the guns, this ain't salsa
It ain't? That's the Macarena
Cause when I looked at the cop badges, I saw no number
How do I know if he's an imposter?
I'm 'bout to feed him to the lobsters
And take him shoppin to the Bahamas, and hide with mobsters
[Ivy Queen]
ay ?
Que a mi me puedan tumbar, ay
Ya yo soy la Reina y te lo vine a demostrar
Man, libra, que los Latinos son high, high
son del medio ?
Te digo lo que ?, demostre lo que doy
Gracias a Jesus Cristo, siempre tengo el control
Ya lo ves, no sabes, tienes que entender
La cuidad viene dura, ya ves con Wyclef

Question, tell me what you think about me?
I buy my own diamonds and I buy my own rings
Only ring your cell-y when I'm feelin' lonely
When it's all over please get up and leave
Question, tell me how you feel about this?
Try to control me boy you get dismissed
Pay my own fun, oh and I pay my own bills

Who would I want if I would wanna live
I worked hard and sacrificed to get what I get
Ladies, it ain't easy bein' independent
Question, how'd you like this knowledge that I brought
Braggin' on that cash that he gave you is to front
If you're gonna brag make sure it's your money you flaunt
Depend on no one else to give you what you want

Indian Love Call
Will you answer too?
That means I offer my love to you to be my own
If you refuse me I will be blue and waiting all alone
But if when you hear my love call ringing clear
And I hear your answering echo so clear
Babe, then I will know our love will come true
You belong to me, I belong to you
You belong to me, I belong to you

Industry
'Cause without hip hop music I wouldn't be here today
Preacher's son, yeah
Imagine if Biggie and Pac never got shot
And they both still was rulers of hip hop
And Puffy and Suge was roommates from college
And Big L never got found in the alley
Nas and Jay-Z they were still homies
Squash the beef with Ja Rule and 50
Benzino shook hands with Eminem
And on the same record I heard Eve, Fox and Kim
And sometimes when I dream, that's when I wake up
I kinda hoped that the Fugees didn't break up
And when they walked into the studio I prayed they didn't spray
'Cause I miss that scratch from Jam Master Jay
Shots go off, mother's cry, death since rise, homicide
Black on black crime needs to stop, y'all can't blame it on hip hop
'Cause what we say is what we see and what we see is reality
The ghettos, the ghettos, you got them livin' in sorrow
Soon they won't live to see tomorrow
Imagine if Big Pun was still alive
I could see Fat Joe screamin' terror squad
Imagine if there was four survivors still in Destiny's Child
And TLC never lost they Left Eye
Imagine Refugees never needin' a passport
And John Forte never at Newark airport
Million Man March, man, that was a start
Now I need a million more to meet me at Central Park
When the revolution start y'all gon' have to play this
Imagine Slick Rick not gettin' deported
Shots go off, mother's cry, death since rise, homicide
Black on black crime needs to stop, y'all can't blame it on hip hop
'Cause what we say is what we see and what we see is reality
The ghettos, the ghettos, you got them livin' in sorrow
Soon they won't live to see tomorrow
In the club never though Shyne shot the gun
But in the limousine JLO had to run
Paparazzi snappin' shots through the mirror
That's when I saw a smile from Princess Diana
Back and forth and forth and back
Like Miss Aaliyah man do I miss her
The war goes on with The ROC and The Lox
Murder INC, G-Unit it's a fight to the top
Stop, we lost too many soldiers like Freaky Tah
While they get the cover of a magazine, who got to die?
Shots go off, mother's cry, death since rise, homicide
Black on black crime needs to stop, y'all can't blame it on hip hop
'Cause what we say is what we see and what we see is reality
The ghettos, the ghettos, you got them livin' in sorrow
Soon they won't live to see tomorrow
Yeah, peace be with y'all
Live to see tomorrow
Live to see tomorrow
Live to see tomorrow
Live to see tomorrow
