All Day All Night - Ric Atari lyrics - Wyclef Jean

[Intro:]
All day, all night, all day, alright
All day, all night, all day, uh, alright

[Verse 1:]
All my niggas is trill as fuck,
I was born in the trap game real as fuck
On the way to the top can't fuck this up
Put too much work in, did too much dirt then
Turn around to the tree, make a motherfucking Motown
How a nigga gonn slow down? Feds ridin at nigga
Hope you on the right dream when the shit go down
Oh you actin like a hoe now, well go and lay on your back, back, back
I'm from the ATL, where we stay up all day and all night
To get the stacks, stacks, stacks

[Hook: x2]
All day (all day), all night (all night)
Getting to it (getting to it), alright (alright)
All day (all day), all night (all night)
Countin money,
You know what we like

[Bridge:]
Work, work, gonna twerk out
Work, work, gonna twerk out
Work, work, gonna twerk out
Gonna twerk out

[Verse 2:]
I put my arms up to the sky,
I'm missing my dogs
Wishing they were here nigga
I stayed on that prize, I'm smelling blood
This is our year nigga
No time for that bullshit, we gonn celebrate
Cause we here nigga
Black tree in this bitch, go on have a beer, cheers nigga
So stop with a nigga never sold a soul, with a new regime, we in overload
Pop that belly ring to that trap n roll
If you love me baby catch me on the road
The young city, you already know what's with me
2 or 3 things, that's pretty,
Light skin biggy
Smoking on the O with the Acapulco flow
But that guy just barely drink

[Hook:]
All day (all day), all night (all night)
Getting to it (getting to it), alright (alright)
All day (all day), all night (all night)
Countin money,
You know what we like

Work, work, gonna twerk out
Work, work, gonna twerk out
Work, work, gonna twerk out
Gonna twerk out

Getting to it (getting to it), alright (alright)
All day (all day), all night (all night)
Countin money,
You know what we like

Work, work, work
Work, work, work
Work, work

EP: If I Were President: My Haitian Experience (2010)















Haitian Experience lyrics - Wyclef Jean

 Yeah, now I'm a rock-star, it started with my imagination

Used to gaze at the twins before the birds hit 'em

Daydream about the God, my axe, my Excalibur

A man, who just saw the future beyond the dishwater


Yeah, cab driver used to gyspy cab rider

But she stuck with me when I had nothin', so I had to wife her

And I used write these thoughts on a black and white notebook

Haitian experience, now I'm a page in a book


I'm a Haitian, Haitian

When I landed in America, 'Merica

I got myself a green card, green card

Mamma say, if I ever break the law, they gon' send me back home


This is my Haitian experience

First stop out in England, England

Immigration send me back to Washington, Washington

Said I need a visa if I wanted to be in the United Kingdom


I pray that the Queen of Buckingham is listening

Your Highness, I got a palace out in Port Au Prince

I got a hundred acres and a whole lotta land

But I can't go back and see my people in the ticks


I'm a Haitian in America

When papa first got his green card, worked seven jobs in America

Then he came and got me from Haiti, told me I had one chance

To make it in America

In the legal Valley and lookin' for work in Manhattan in America


My papa was a Haitian, Haitian

He got to America, 'Merica

On a six month visa, visa

When the visa expired, he went underground like rats in the sewer


This is the Haitian experience

Runnin' from the Immigration interrogation

But his vision was his chosen

(How you gon' get us to New York?)

Absolute lost and at sea and never see the airport


Yeah, I pray that the President is up there listenin'

Your Excellence, I got a palace out in Port Au Prince

I got a hundred acres and a whole lotta land

So we go move from detention, we go, we build the land


I'm a Haitian in America

When papa first got his green card, worked seven jobs in America

Then he came and got me from Haiti, told me I had one chance

To make it in America

So I learned to play guitar with dreams of becomin' a rock star

(In America)


(I'm a Haitian)

I'm a Haitian in America

When papa first got his green card, worked seven jobs in America

Then he came and got me from Haiti, told me I had one chance

To make it in America

In the legal Valley and lookin' for work in Manhattan in America


What we gon' do right now is we gon' go back

Way back

To what I call Lassie

The roots, the Haitian experience

Let's go


Look in her eyes, she will survive

She smiles like she's in love

She's 21, she lost her feedin' arms

But she ain't lose her soul, dancin' outta control


Like Angelina Ballerina

Like Angelina Ballerina

Like Angelina Ballerina

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na


Yes, I'm a Haitian in America

When papa first got his green card, worked seven jobs in America

Then he came and got me from Haiti, told me I had one chance

To make it in America

In the legal Valley and lookin' for work in Manhattan in America


Man, I just got on a plane leavin' Haiti

And I landed in Brooklyn, New York City, Cooney Island

Marlboro Projects, man, in projects, it's so rough to blend in

I learned to how to rock, sing, dance, pop, loc, whatever it took

[?]

Yeah, that's my dad, a Haitian livin' in America

Earthquake lyrics - Wyclef Jean

 Earthquake, down there in Haiti

Earthquake in the past of Chile

Earthquake in the Indonesia

Earthquake in the China

Earthquake is coming to America

Earthquakes are there in California

Earthquake warn ya people in the city

That the Earth is getting angry


And I asked Earth what have we done

She said we building too much bombs

So there’s too many sons that won’t see their father

Too many daughters that won’t see their mother

Too many grandmas that won’t see their grandkids

They are in the rubble in Port au Prince


Earthquake, down there in Haiti

Earthquake in the past of Chile

Earthquake in the Indonesia

Earthquake in the China

Earthquake is coming to America

Earthquakes out there in California

Earthquake warn ya people in the city

That the Earth is getting angry


That’s when the earth started talking rude (so rude)

Say she’s thirteen she’s a prostitute

I tried to beg for the young girl’s life

But when the earthquake came it took her to the other side

Then I asked her who’s next?

She said, those that’s polluting the planet

They killing everything moving, flowers and abusing mankind

And the only thing left is Armageddon


Earthquake, down there in Haiti

Earthquake in the past of Chile

Earthquake in the Indonesia

Earthquake in the China

Earthquake is coming to America

Earthquakes out there in California

Earthquake warn ya people in the city

That the Earth is getting angry


And as much as we take it for granted

We might not have no better lie in tonight

We be taking for granted

Our kids might get no ice-cream tonight

In this road we taking for granted

We might not kiss our loved ones tonight

If we want the Earth to be better, lets start spreading love

On the planet called Earth

Lets start spreading some goodness, on the planet called earth

Lets start spreading some kindness, oh yeah

Let’s get rid of the weekenders

One love, one heart, one soul, and shaking every trembling of the earth.

Election Time lyrics - Wyclef Jean

 My generation like

We're okay

As long as we got music, we gon' dance all day

He gon' vote Taylor Swift, she gon' vote Kanye, yeah, yeah

Election time is coming


We're okay

As long as we got music, we gon' party all day

She gon' vote U2, he gon' vote Coldplay, play, play

Election time is coming


Immigration, socialism, capitalism, racism

Health care, welfare, seems like nobody cares

Big business, corporation, small business, taxation

Unemployment, education, my generation


Built a space station so when you google earth

You can see all the Haitians as they rebuild their nation

With fair trade, everybody trades

You trade, I trade and everybody gets paid


Election time around the corner

Who you gon' vote for?

We're okay

Election time around the corner

What you gon' fight for?

We're okay


Election time around the corner

Who you gon' vote for?

We're okay

Election time is coming

Do you want peace or war?


Alternative energy or oil in your SUV

Tell me what you're looking for, we about to have it all

Gun control, infrastructure, agriculture, manufacturer

Hip Hop, be my culture, tell me what you think about us


Technology and foreign policy

I need the bailout money to stimulate economy

Raised on family values, my life be my testament

King had a dream and you too can be the president


Election time around the corner

Who you gon' vote for?

We're okay

Election time around the corner

What you gon' fight for?

We're okay


Election time around the corner

Who you gon' vote for?

We're okay

Election time is coming

Do you want peace or war?


But the kids like

We're okay

As long as we got music, we gon' dance all day

He gon' vote Taylor Swift, she gon' vote Kanye, yeah, yeah

Election time is coming


But the kids like

We're okay

As long as we got music, we gon' party all day

She gon' vote U2, he gon' vote Coldplay, play, play

Election time is coming


You know what?

What?

Why don't you take some of that stuff I grew up on

You know what I'm talkin' about?

[?]


Gramps was a voodoo priest, Dad was a preacher

Uncle was a Mason, I was raised Christian

Best friend, Muslim, al-salam-alakum

My manager was Jewish, he taught me Shabbat Shalom


Flatbush Rastas taught me the scriptures

Haile Selassie, Marcus Garvey

Saint L'ouverture, Haitian Revolution

Napoleon's Army got spanked by them Haitians


Toussaint St. Jean with the info

Did you know that a Haitian founded Chicago?

If I was president

The first thing I would do is get my people out them tents


Election time is coming

My generation like

We're okay

As long as we got music, we gon' dance all day

He gon' vote Taylor Swift, she gon' vote Kanye, yeah, yeah

Election time is coming


But the kids like

We're okay

As long as we got music, we gon' party all day

She gon' vote U2, he gon' vote Coldplay, play, play

Election time is coming


I wanna thank you all for coming to see me here

You could have been anywhere

But you've chosen to come to the Haitian Experience to see us

I go by the name of Wyclef Jean, straight from Haiti

And that's my brother Steph on the drums

Death Threats lyrics - Wyclef Jean

 Death threats

In the middle of the night

Cowards on the telephone

Say I've got a pretty daughter with a pretty wife


So I got no choice

Got on my chopper, got my vest on

(Choppered up, vest on)

Got on my chopper, got my vest on

(Choppered up, vest on)


Got on my chopper, got my vest on

Yeah, I'm ridin' towards my enemy

Before they come and get my family


Biggie used to ask what's beef

It's when my own countryman wanna kill me

I used to rip a flag in the air like I'm part of the set

But now it seems like the same set is givin' me death threats


All I wanted to be was Commander-in-chief

But it seems like they wanna see me six feet deep

But no weapon used against me shall prosper

(Prosper, prosper, prosper, prosper)


Death threats

In the middle of the night

(What they said?)

Cowards on the telephone

Say I've got a pretty daughter with a pretty wife


So I got no choice

Got on my chopper, got my vest on

(Choppered up, vest on)

Got on my chopper, got my vest on

(Choppered up, vest on)


Got on my chopper, got my vest on

Yeah, I'm ridin' towards my enemy

Before they come and get my family


Then they labeled me

(A populist)

Pushed the decision back before they kicked me out the race

So they met in Peurto Princess in secrecy

They said they heard a rumor that I met with Irish Steve


But all I wanted to be was Commander-in-chief

So when the food price rise, everyone still eats

Give them some books, make sure everybody reads

Illiteracy is modern day slavery


Death threats

In the middle of the night

(What they said?)

Cowards on the telephone

Say I've got a pretty daughter with a pretty wife


So I got no choice

Got on my chopper, got my vest on

(Choppered up, vest on)

Got on my chopper, got my vest on

(Choppered up, vest on)


Got on my chopper, got my vest on

I'm ridin' towards my enemy

Before they come and get my family


The coin that I bet heads on, been tails all along

On both sides of the coin

So I'm careful who I eat with

'Cause if I'm poisoned, a dead man can't get elected


Preacher laid his hands on me, said it's a prophesy

But like Bijou Banton, it's my destiny

Yo, and I kept the crowd calm

But they runnin' out of patience, they got short talk and long arms


We disgrace, story come from photo press

All the music where the scene gets tense

And the perpetrator says, "If you love your life

You would take the next plane but you can't survive"


You see I won't get the Peace Prize

'Cause I got a rifle hangin' by my bedside

A million voices goin' feel like a genocide

If my people don't fight for their equal right


You see I won't get the Peace Prize

'Cause I got a rifle hangin' by my bedside

A million voices goin' feel like a genocide

If my people don't fight for their equal right


Death threats

Me ain't scared

In the middle of the night

(What they said?)

Cowards on the telephone

Say I've got a pretty daughter with a pretty wife


So I got no choice

Got on my chopper, got my vest on

(Choppered up, vest on)

Got on my chopper, got my vest on

(Choppered up, vest on)

Got on my chopper, got my vest on


Yeah, David shoot Goliath with a slingshot

Camel To Ferraris lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. WavieboiD, T-Baby)

 [Wyclef Jean (WavieboiD):]

(New everything, me have me new money

Me have me new dividends

Me new mutual fund

Me new stocks

Me new bank account

And bare no tings round here)

Straight from the parishes of Haiti

To Brooklyn, New Jersey

Who would have thought we would have landed in Dubai

(Chaa)


[Wyclef Jean:]

Back from Abu Dhabi

From the camel to Ferrari

The only thing you can't be

Is what you can't dream

Back from the grand priest

Riding camels and Ferraris

You see the only thing you can't be

What you can't be


[T-Baby:]

We picked up the hundreds and fifties

We ran through the bandos as kids

But it wasn't my time, perfected my craft

To take care of my niggas that's with me

Trying to get them Ferraris and Bentleys

To show all the gangs in the trenches

That we gone get richer and richer

So we try and get richer and richer


[Wyclef Jean:]

Cause I came in just like you

Raised in the projects just like you

Mama was on welfare just like you

I even robbed a store once just like you

My house was kinda rough just like you

So I fought for myself boy just like you

I even bought a gun man, just like you

Shot it off a few times (Rrrah) just like you

My people in a gang man, just like you

They were murdered in Flatbush Avenue

Revenge on my mind man, just like you

But preparing on doing your mom in too

More money more problems man, just like you

Yeah, flesh and blood man, just like you

Good days, bad days, girl we will pull through

I ran for president, so can you


Back from Abu Dhabi

From the camel to Ferrari

The only thing you can't be

Is what you can't dream

Back from the grand priest

Riding camels and Ferraris

You see the only thing you can't be

What you can't be


[T-Baby:]

We picked up the hundreds and fifties

We ran through the bandos as kids

But it wasn't my time, perfected my craft

To take care of my niggas that's with me

Trying to get them Ferraris and Bentleys

To show all the gangs in the trenches

That we gone get richer and richer

So we try and get richer and richer

I put it on for the crib, showing the wave what it is

I just got off of the flight, I just got back from Dubai

Nigga I like it I bite (whoa)

I made a way out the way

I'm putting money away, when they get clouds on your rains

They talk about making it rain, I'm talking about trips to the bay

Everybody love you til they hate you

Acting like they love you but they hate you

I can see them talking in the rearview

Engine revving I can't even hear you

We picked up the hundreds and fifties

We ran through the bandos as kids

But it wasn't my time, perfected my craft

To take care of my niggas that's with me

Trying to get them Ferraris and Bentleys

To show all the gangs in the trenches

That we gone get richer and richer

So we try and get richer and richer

Mama told me when I hit the streets the shit won't get easy

But they need me to feed them pasta like Luigi

Couple gs in my pocket, flexxing like I ate my wheeties

All night same clothes I needed all night creeping

I needed white grannies just like you

White couch, marble floors just like you

[?] just like you

Send my young boys home with the Tonton Macoute

We come with the low choppers still in the basement

Ain't never made it out, ain't never fake it

Just trying to be on the list with the greatest

I love you, you understand big homie?

You made it

We picked up the hundreds and fifties

We ran through the bandos as kids

But it wasn't my time, perfected my craft

To take care of my niggas that's with me

Trying to get them Ferraris and Bentleys

To show all the gangs in the trenches

That we gone get richer and richer

So we try and get richer and richer

Cards Never Lie lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Beyonce Knowles & Rah Digga)

 (from "MTV's Hip Hopera: Carmen" soundtrack)


[Beyonce:]

The cards never lie, my last breath a sigh

And now I think about if it's my time to die

I don't know what I was thinking, steady wasting time with Hill

And I need to live my life because my time is unforgiven


I can't understand how my life changed around

Manifest my destiny, is it the brown underground?

Blue skies are turning grayer it's the point of indecision

Believing in the cards you must respect it's every vision


[Wyclef:]

Oh Girlfriend, get your mind on right

Don't spend your time cause you can't waste your time

Everyday like it's your last, but you must fear divine

Intervention comes and snatch up all your dreams from behind


Love!

You feel it and you got to let them know it

Love!

Your heart and that's the feeling that you go with

If you have a dream you need to go and let them know it

Cause you could wake up in the morning and it could be over


[Beyonce:]

No, No, No, No

I don't wanna, I don't wanna

I don't wanna go

Just, Just, Just let me stay home

Let me live my dream, let me see another dawn


No, No, No, No

I don't wanna, I don't wanna

I don't wanna go

Just, Just, Just let me stay home

Let me live my dream, let me see another dawn


[Rah Digga:]

Carmen, don't listen cause the cards have deceit

Just slide him the money, we don't need a receipt

Truth only exists within the eyes of the beholder

Plus he's kind of young for fortune telling

He probably should be older


[Wyclef:]

But the cards never lie, I thought I told you

Now it's her turn to try, to reach her goals before she reaches the sky


[Beyonce:]

This is love

It's like I'm trying to throw my life away

Sometimes love is all you got and other times it makes you pay


[Wyclef:]

Well when you finally rise

Then you'll realize


[Beyonce:]

The windows to the soul are not the hips but the eyes


[Wyclef:]

Oh You could wish on the stars but they dead, just the light


[Beyonce:]

But they shine just as bright as they did their entire life


No, No, No, No

I don't wanna, I don't wanna

I don't wanna go

Just, Just, Just let me stay home

Let me live my dreams, let me see another dawn


No, No, No, No

I don't wanna, I don't wanna

I don't wanna go

Just, Just, Just let me stay home

Just let me live my dreams, let me see another day

Dar Um Jeito (We Will Find A Way) lyrics - Wyclef Jean (with Santana) (feat. Avicii & Alexandre Pires)

 Dar um jeito Oooo!

Dar um jeito Oooo!


[Wyclef Jean:]

When you got nothing to eat

And you find it hard to sleep

How you struggle on the streets

And you can't escape the heat

But your heart could feel that beat

So you get up off your feet

Ain't no mountain you can't reach

Grab your star and make a wish (ouhoho)

We celebrating and we're waving all our rags

We're all united even though we're different flags

We are all one voice,one heart, one soul

Once we set that Goal

You know we're gonna score


[Pre-Chorus:]

Here we go Oooo! Oooo! Oooo!

That's all we know Oooo! Oooo! Oooo!

So here we go Oooo! Oooo! Oooo!

That's all we know


[Chorus:]

Dar um jeito Oooo!

We're gonna find a way

And we're gonna find a way

Dar um jeito Ooo!

We're gonna find a way

And we're gonna find a way


[Alexandre Pires:]

Você nasceu para brilhar

Está escrito em seu olhar

é tão forte a sensação

De vestir uma nação

Quando o jogo começar

Ninguém vai te segurar

Sua determinação

é de um grande campeão

Nós celebramos e vibramos por vocês

O mundo inteiro está torcendo outra vez

Nós somos uma voz, corpo, alma, coração

Então vamos gritar

Explode Emoção


[Pre-Chorus]


[Chorus]


Here we go!


Here we go Oooo! Oooo! Oooo!

That's all we know Oooo! Oooo! Oooo!

So here we go Oooo! Oooo! Oooo!

That's all we know

Dar um jeito Oooo!

We will find a way

And we're gonna find a way

Dar um jeito Ooo!

We're gonna find a way

And we're gonna find a way

Here we go!

[Wyclef Jean:]

You won't like me when I'm angry!

You won't like me when I'm angry!!!!

[Verse 1: Wyclef Jean + (Timbaland)]

You don't wanna provoke the David Banner cause when the Hulk come out

The trunk come out the pump come out

You gonna have to pay me for protection

If not when you see me go in the other direction

Yo! You don't want the good guy to turn villain

Children come up missin

Grandma and grandpa found in the Atlantic Ocean

Homicide show up see I was just fishin

I caught two snappers now I'm cookin in the kitchen

You wanna play comedian so I'm the king of Comedy (What)

Crackin jokes at your eulogy killin your family (Uh huh)

Got the Vibe I like my wife beater

XXL and once I find The Source and turn the cross

Natural we'll murder you (Uh huh)

Then kiss yo' mom at the funeral (Uh huh)

And like my man Haitian Jack I be at immigration

A Haitian singin the same old song


[Chorus: Wyclef Jean & Timbaland]

[Verse 2:]

[Wyclef Jean:] Hollywood!!!


[Hollywood (Timbaland):]

How often do I clap take a portion of your crack (What)

Till I walk you to your grave with your coffin on your back (Uh huh)

Since a snotnose in Pre K, kids wanted to be me

Niggaz couldn't see me from B.K. to P.A

Fuck what he or she say, long as my peeps straight (Uh huh)

Armed with my heat bake, calm as I see Jake (Uh huh)

Ski stay a feet way, far from them cheap snakes (Ha!)

Cause these rap buffoons be all on that cliche

I laughed at a&r's when they tossed the tape

Now they come to see me to endorse the tape

I'm whippin it well, you see the word boss on plates (What)

Whether the cake or the jewels it still Frosted Flakes

Without the Tony or the Tiger what's Frosted Flakes?

I boss this tape


[Wyclef Jean (Timbaland):]

Don't run, be a man!


[Chorus: Wyclef Jean & Timbaland]

Y'all niggaz is pussy, I can smell it from a far (Uh huh)

Trini fear no man don't give a fuck who you are (Uh huh)

I'm soon to be the most expected (What)

Now let me run that back I am the most respected


[Verse 4:]

[Wyclef Jean:] Shells!!!


[Shells (Timbaland):]

Now when Shells come out, it's back on the block again

No music and videos back pushin rocks again

Back on the low right hand with the glock again

Beef I'm a pop now six till your pops hit

I don't play around dogs a gangsta and a gentlemen

Yeah I'm spaced out cause it's all about the benjamins (Uh huh)

Can tell if you a thug by the way you shake your hand (Uh huh)

Can tell if you really hustle by the way you move grams

I do it dogs shoot it dogs trust me don't do it dogs

Lose it dogs see your eye I could black and blue it dogs

Call your dogs you a bitch man made never snitch (What)

Time to eat it's the click, black burners nah mean

Sick of you niggaz pullin them triggers gettin them figures stop (What)

I burn your block with a bomb like I ain't run and go call the cops (What)

It's Shells ma this man back in your buildin

I'm clappin your children if I don't sell a million


[Chorus: Wyclef Jean & Timbaland]

Oh lordy (Oh) Mr. U.S. don't deport me (Don't deport me)

Lord, I know you heard the whole story

About the guns that we hidin in Miami, whoa!!!

Oh lordy (Oh) Mr. U.S. don't deport me (Don't deport me)

Lord, I know you heard the whole story

About the guns that we hidin in Miami, whoa!!!

Distance lyrics - Wyclef Jean

 Even with the distance

I feel so near

Even with the separation of space

You'll be right here


Dress like fashion week

Got nowhere to go

Runways in my closet

Internet's the show

Heroes on the frontline

Working overtime

Courage over fear

When they cross that line


Who's to say

It is not in a time like this that we've been chosen

To get closer

To one another


Even with the distance

I feel so near

Even with the separation of space

You'll be right here


We're six degrees apart

Closer than we've ever been

The stadium is empty

It's the living room we're in

Someone tell the land

Lord hear my cry

We all wear the mask now

Fear as a disguise


Who's to say

It is not in a time like this that we've been chosen

To get closer

To one another


Even with the distance

I feel so near

Even with the separation of space

You'll be right here


Even with the distance

I feel so near

Even with the separation of space

You'll be right here


Even with the distance

Gone 'Til November (The Makin' Runs Remix) lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Canibus, R. Kelly, Khadejiah Bass)

 [Wyclef Jean:]

Tell me how you like it

Right about now I know y'all diggin this, so just...

turn up, your radio wherever you at

We about to bring it

This is Wyclef Jean up here ("Word to Wyclef" - Busta Rhymes)

With Canibus workin the night shift ("Word to Wyclef")

Yo, we want all the ladies to put your hands in the air ("Word to Wyclef")

and sing this song with us ("Word to Wyclef")

Yo, R. Kelly, ya ready? Come on


[R. Kelly:]

Now everytime I make a run (uh-huh, uh-huh)

Girl, you turn around and cry

I ask myself oh, why ohhh why... (uh-huh, uh-huh)

See you've got to understand

I can't work a nine to five

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 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


[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)

Girl, you turn around and cry (uh-huh, uh-huh)

I ask myself why, oh why (you need muscle for da hustle)

See you must understand (uh-huh, uh-huh)

I can't work a nine to five (uh-huh, uh-huh)

So I'll be gone, til November (uh-huh, uh-huh)


[Wyclef + Khadejiah Bass:]

Tell me say Michelle, my belle

Yo, I'll be gone til November

Standing on the block where the spot get hot selling rocks

Guaranteed to get set up by a crooked cop

Tell me say 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 (soooo wronnnng)

we workin the night shift, shift, shift


[Canibus:]

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...

Divine Sorrow lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Avicii)

 Deary blossom, I've gone down to old rock bottom

Now I know the love in my heart was true...

Divine sorrow, I thank you for the joy that followed

Back then my friend, if only you knew


It is harder when you love beyond belief

But I'm a fool to let you go,

So this is for you my love


We will never

We will never have a change of mind

We belong together


We will never

We will never be the weary kind


We sing our sorrows away

We sing our sorrows away

We sing our sorrows away


[Avicii Instrumental]


Divine blessing

I wish I would have heard your lesson

Now I know your words were my only truth

I'm just venting, or maybe I'm done confessing

Back then my friend, if only you knew


It is harder when you love beyond belief

But I'm a fool to let you go,

So this is for you my love


We will never

We will never have a change of mind

We belong together


We will never

We will never be the weary kind


We sing our sorrows away

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ohhh


We can make it through judgement day

We won't go fading away

All I ever know must be heaven where you come from


We can make it through cloudy skies

By your side, I feel alive

All I ever know must be heaven where you come from

Yeah


[Avicii Instrumental]
