However You Want It
/w/wyclef+jean/however+you+want+it_20147566.html
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...) 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! 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...) 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 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...) 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!

Next Generation

Hold on now, don't die now, be strong now He said, I was born a crack baby In a plastic bag in the alley Raised in a foster home With no mother to love and I never knew my papi Back in the days of Bobby McFerrin Used to sing don't worry, be happy Lord how can I be happy When I don't even know my own family tree Lord We are the next generation, we ain't scared to die The only thing I fear is the after life 'Cause I don't know what's there on the other side But I pray the Lord forgives me, gives me one more try Gang poppin' things, doing drive-by's and angers Kids going to school putting fears in their teacher The teacher let them know that it ain't all good 'Cause the gang was created to protect the neighborhood, now All you red now, all you blue now All you yellow now, follow me now To that place of righteousness Where the only thing that matters is your consciousness, he said We are the next generation, we ain't scared to die The only thing I fear is the after life 'Cause I don't know what's there on the other side But I pray the Lord forgives me, gives me one more try In my father's kingdom there are many mansions All the rooms are free, there is no tax collection I can see Biggie, Tupac, Moses and Abraham Jason, the one and two's, jamming with the sun of man I've been kicked, I've been stabbed I've been shot, I've been ? by a Person that I thought I trusted, where I live It's a war at the cribs, walk with a strap Myself 'cause I don't want nobody's son on my back My mind playing tricks ?, to really ? Me out in five unless I take another hit I done seen the sun set on the other side of town Now I'm drifting in the darkness, Heaven hold me down ? but I know I'm born dying Feel the tears of the angels looking down on me crying For a lying ass but yo forgive us in a while And I'm sorry, never let me forget that I'm your child While I'm locked up in this basement staring eye to eye with Satan In this cold dark world with no patience We get plotted on by agents with talks of replacing The Africans, Jamaicans and the Haitians in this next generation We are the next generation, we ain't scared to die The only thing I fear is the after life 'Cause I don't know what's there on the other side But I pray the Lord forgives me, gives me one more try Whoa, we the next generation, look at what we facing The kids raise themselves, all kind of temptation Flowers and candles decorating all the pavements No, the perpetrator ain't seeing no arrangements Nobody cares about the feelings of the poor Man they suffer while we spending eighty billion on a war, uh Cutting school budgets, US stockmarket plummets Condition's only worse and I wonder what become it Metal detectors replace music classes Angry little kids want to beat their teacher's asses The red and blue's, somebody gotta lose Reality TV be reality for who I don't question what the Lord found in me I just pass it on to folks with no boundaries Got a long road ahead of us, AIDS already gettin' us Now we got stars, how many will there be left of us We are the next generation, we ain't scared to die The only thing I fear is the after life 'Cause I don't know what's there on the other side But I pray the Lord forgives me, gives me one more try

Oh What A Night
/w/wyclef+jean/oh+what+a+night_20147532.html
It's funny how the Earth rotates, man you never know what's going to happen, ya know mean? All I said was "Aiight, I got this chiki bang bang dang da dang" Then it all got it started for me, man Yo, man I'm just getting back from the tour, man What it be like, man? Yo, bust it, turn me up Somebody told me if you can make in New York City, man, you can make it anywhere else, man Somehow I believe that shhhh [Chorus] Oh, what a night Late December, 1993 (what happened?) Who thought he would rule the industry? What an MC on the grind Yo, I ain't always have whips, I ain't always have yachts I ain't always have chips, I ain't always have rocks Matta fact I was a grimey little negro Who said if music didn't work, I'd sell diesel What cha'll thought, I wasn't raised in the projects? First of the month waitin for that PA check Lived on the first floor Were so poor that if you rung the buzzer the roaches would answer the door (who is it?) I went from boy to man in one night When I saw my life flash like light from poltergeist What made it worse, I couldn't speak English But from his facial expressions, he wanted my Adidas So hurry up and come out and play I'll be damned if I leave bare-footed in this hallway And I got big plans, so beg your pardon Cause next year this time I'ma sell out the Garden [Chorus] Yo, yo, I ain't gonna brag and boast and say I did it all But I'm the only rapper to play Carnegie Hall The first rap group, video cost a million First rapper to ever rep for the Haitians And sa fa say, na boolay Grammy night, we took 3 away 22 million sold, I can't believe this There's still ain't a rapper alive who could achieve this But I ain't satisfied, when back to my home contemplating How could I become the next Quincy Jones? That's when Jerry hit me up on the horn and said "Clef, your on the cover of the cover of The Source by The Rolling Stones" No more struggling, good life we loving it You could live it too, if you only publish it So here we go, so what's the scenario? I own so many cars that I'm renting 'em for videos [Chorus]

Closed legs don't get fed, go out there and make my bread All you wanna know is (where my money at?) She ended up in a road car, bruised up, scarred hard All you wanna know is (where my money at?)

She needs a new honey, in the city she gets lonely I finally figured out her man's locked up in a penatentary So tell me, what should I do when she gets off the phone? The devil said, "Clef, take her ass home!" God says, "Repect her, her man's in the pen" This kid pushed me from behind, "Yo, why you fuckin' with my woman?!!!" Then his girl looked at me, she winked! I blinked! Now he's coming up to me with the gorilla instinct Aww, cool-n-shit! I'm sittin' here eatin' shrimp Besides, I would hate for you to be a missing link He said, "Son, do you know who I am?! I'm no man, but one man who? The son of Sam!" I said you've got this wrong, I never sung your girl a love song He drew for his weapon, there's no more conversation Cock!Cock!Cock!Cock!Cock!Cock! He released! then breathe, His aim went off balance The music got tense That's when I knew I was in trouble! The street is like a jungle! I jumped behind the bar, but caught two in the ankle! POW!

I know, I see, I feel and yes I fear it everyday These ego's there minds and games With all their power could end our days Still the sun it shinesand the moon it sinks with grace It's such a shame that all this shit exists Here on this earth, this magical place I'm doing fine Yes you have the funds and size and power to make some change What you have will break their smiles So many people so many ways Each Child who walks their line Should be free to run their race It's such a shame that all this shit exists here on this earth, this magical place I'm doing fine

I guess this is the rushed goodbye That I thought would never come The woman who lit the light For a family in the dark Starring at the mirror I see your smile through my own Your spark embedded deep inside Will give me strength Will give us hope And I'll never lose your touch No I'll never lose touch This will take me a while Because I miss your smile I guess I new your time would come But for now I miss your smile It's gonna take me a while Thank you for your loyal stance Green spandex and crazy style Thank you for the happiness That you gave to our lives Although now our hearts are cracked And our tears are slow to dry We must count ourselves The lucky ones For we were with you in your prime And I'll never lose your touch No I'll never lose touch Please stay in touch Because I need you in my heart Please stay in touch I need your touch

Here and now our choices here are growing thin, As children grow they grow with what they see In these times where paranioa closes in Power and hate a rampaging disease In our minds we build the blocks to what we need In our minds we are reaching out for peace In our hearts we know of such the hills to climb In our hearts a sesne of mass defeat shame sahme these games that they play with you and me Shame for these games that they play our children will keep these are our times this problem much to big to hold For you and I far too high to reach We can begin by holding close the things we know And valuing our pockets of peace These are the earth the sun the moon the sea the sky These are the gifts to which we all agree Through these things and those we love we can unite And sink into our pockets of peace

Having a problem, turn on the TV Got too much money, give it to me. I'll say what you wanna hear, Do what you think I should. 'Cause I'm on your side, Don't be misunderstood. Will I retain my sanity? Or tumble into vanity? Effect all of Humanity, You will pay. Reach out for something, escape reality. Insane suicide, pay the penalty. Don't see what's the final move, On how to play the game. Don't think you'll end up like them. Don't think that you're the same. Will I retain... Murder you justify, so your hands are clean. Carry out the task you set, Homage to the green. Taking life without a care, Sadist of a kind. Making you into a man, A man without a mind. Will I retain... Do I control my destiny, Or there's a higher authority, That commits atrocity. I fear for humanity.

It's everything we do while we're here A fear or a thought, a feeling or a dream Touch it and taste it, breathe it all in Say what you feel, things aren't what they seem Why live, why breathe, Why breed, why die? These questions all tied up inside It's all or nothing or what you make it A prize or a secret, Which path do you take Decisions and gambles, a goal to be scored Risks and lies We all make mistakes Why live, why breathe, Why breed, why die? These questions all tied up inside Thoughts without pictures Looks without seeing Words without reason Touch without feeling Life is your reward Not to be ignored Why ask the questions when there's no answer? Why play the game when there's no way to win? Why ask the questions when there's no answers? Why seek the truth when the truth is within?

I can buy my own cigarettes, I can pluck my own moustache. I read it's lame to wish, That you won't walk out on me. I'm not embarrassed to sing, Plainly the words love and your name. I can pay all my own bills, I can unroll my own tights. I can untuck all I have to untuck, I can weep through my own midnights. I can loose my own tie knot, I can button up my own pants. I can buy my own cigarettes, I can pluck my own moustache. I can pay all my own debts, I can rip off my own tights. I can humiliate myself to your face, I can weep through my own midnights.
