Hope N Pray lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Young Chop)

[Intro:]

She put a choppa to my ear and then she said boy you did

Unless you tell me the truth - where you been last night?

I was with Young Chop cutting tracks in the studio

Aye

You don't believe me though

Aye

She aimin at my temple

[Hook: x2]

Hope n pray, hope n pray

Hold me baby, hope n pray

Hope n pray, hope n pray

When the jet go off, you know let's get away

[Bridge:]

I guess that's why I said someone call 911

'Cause you never miss a good thing til it's gone

The old timers used to tell me

A house is not home unless she's in it but she's tryna kill you

[Verse 1:]

She about to go off

Sound like the kind that's let off

This feels like a bad trip

Demons in my mattress

Now she done let off, tryna take my head off

Should I confess? Or should I let it air out?

[Hook: x2]

Hope n pray, hope n pray

Hold me baby, hope n pray

Hope n pray, hope n pray

When the jet go off, you know let's get away

[Bridge:]

I guess that's why I said someone call 911

'Cause you never miss a good thing til it's gone

The old timers used to tell me

A house is not home unless she's in it but she's tryna kill you

[Verse 2:]

Now she's comin down the block

Go back up, I'm hearin shots

No chips lined, I'm not up for talking

I already know she cold-hearted

I'm tryin to make er take this rose

I rather bury you with guns and roses

She wanna know if I heard er loud and clear

On er mama she swear

[Hook: x2]

Hope n pray, hope n pray

Hold me baby, hope n pray

Hope n pray, hope n pray

When the jet go off, you know let's get away

[Verse 3:]

And when I'm long gone

I'm no longer here

Remember I tried to apologize

But death ears can't hear, no

So the choppa ring oh oh oh oh oh

And my head gave up

And my body got tossed

All in the name of love

[Hook: x2]

Hope n pray, hope n pray

Hold me baby, hope n pray

Hope n pray, hope n pray

When the jet go off, you know let's get away

[Bridge:]

I guess that's why I said someone call 911

'Cause you never miss a good thing til it's gone

The old timers used to tell me

A house is not home unless she's in it but she's tryna kill you

Stuntin lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Angelica Salem)

[Intro:]

She said she always gonna be, daddy's little girl

Look at her style, look at her swag

I be stuntin like my daddy did, stuntin like my daddy did

Everywhere she go, yea she be stuntin like her daddy

I love your cat walk, the way you hold your head high

You got every man lookin but they can't get the prize

[Verse 1:]

I gotta do this for my mama, gotta do this for my daddy

In the middle of the block, gotta make it for my homies

My little brother playing ball

That he says if you win to get then have it all

George Michael swag, so all I do is hate the fate

Look at the pictures on the wall, my dad's amongst the great

Designer this, designer that, I'm running out of closet space

But daddy never let it get to my head, amazing grace

[Bridge:]

The boys don't want to play

Once they know my daddy's weight

They don't misbehave, they don't wanna see the great

I can do without the pain, gotta treat this baby

Like every day is my birthday

[Hook:]

I be stuntin like my daddy did, stuntin like my daddy did

Everywhere I go man I'm stuntin like my daddy did

All you gotta do is look into my eyes

Sport cars, gold, diamonds and Taj Mahal

Eyyy, here's the plan, let's get a jet

Every man got a tattoo with you on they chest

Trust me, I'm clairvoyant when it comes to dreams

I told Destiny's Child that they would be the young supreme

[Bridge:]

The boys don't want to play

Once they know my daddy's weight

They don't misbehave, they don't wanna see the great

I can do without the pain, gotta treat this baby

Like every day is my birthday

[Hook:]

I be stuntin like my daddy did, stuntin like my daddy did

Everywhere I go man I'm stuntin like my daddy did

Everywhere she go, yea she be stuntin like her daddy

I love your cat walk, the way you hold your head high

You got every man lookin but they can't get the prize

I Wish It Was Music lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. T.I. Trae The Truth)

[Hook:]

Oh... wish this was a Metallica concert

I wish that it was music when they walked in the building

Someone ring the alarm

It sound like rock n roll

It sound like rock n roll

Oh... wish this was man, a Rolling Stones concert

I wish that it was music when they walked in the building

Someone ring the alarm

It sound like rock n roll

It sound like rock n roll

[Verse 1:]

Problem officer? What? Wuchu lookin fo?

Man I ain't dis shit, what the fuck you lookin for?

Guess it 'cause I rap, what has a rapper done to you I ask?

Smoke some weed, show is at when he sad

Man everybody didn't knew it like me

Ain't the war you should harass and ask for ID

You done never seen Trevon, Martin in the hoodie

In Connecticut shootin a killa good

Is it me or can anyone see?

I'm holding history while massacre was linked to you

But the prez that's in er relate to me

Second a memo will strip for me, all because you scared of wet

I go and see a urban movie, shoot a movie theater up

Man, that fucked up

'Cus I'm a good dude

And when I had to, I knew when to use em

Usually the likes of you sit high and they glow in the likes of me

My music ain't the problem, Shawty not as poor as I can

Shit!

[Hook:]

Oh... wish this was man, a Summer Jam concert

I wish that it was music when they walked in the building

Someone ring the alarm

It sound like rock n roll

It sound like rock n roll

Oh... wish this was a Coachella concert

I wish that it was music when they walked in the building

Someone ring the alarm

It sound like rock n roll

It sound like rock n roll

[Verse 2:]

Look, sip real but I'm ridin

Too late for slowin this pace down

Lately like the bed so cold

Gotta keep that 5 on my waist line

Even though I don't want to I got to

Look at what they did to them babies

I couldn't imagine the feeling

The way that I'm feeling with something so crazy

That's that shit that make you sick

Lose all hope and make you quit

Tryna piece this puzzle but shit don't fit

So many things I just don't get

They say in life it ain't nothing that's promised

We end up living here, I just had to be honest

The pain soundin like metal, the color of vonix

When it play, everything in the path of it demolished

Everything the same stage but a different show

It's hard to focus every day, putting on a different role, damn!

[Hook:]

Oh... wish this was an Up on the Roof concert

I wish that it was music when they walked in the building

Someone ring the alarm

It sound like rock n roll

It sound like rock n roll

Oh... wish this was a Metallica concert

I wish that it was music when they walked in the building

Someone ring the alarm

It sound like rock n roll

It sound like rock n roll

[Verse 3:]

Last days, revelations front page

666 out in Boston, it's the beast range

I send a message to the pagans with the ravens

The numbers to decode, the secret's locked up in the Vatican

I guess that's why my papa called me Wyclef Jean

I was named after the reformer teta that was protestant

And never since then, daddy built churches in the hood

But it was hard to see my cousins in a box made out of wood

Sadistically they said that I'll be dead by 23

I guess they didn't read the good book and see the prophecy

The youngins say that's too deep

I'm tryin to move these rocks

X ray came back on his mom's breast, they found lumps

But he gotta hustle, imam a holy man

He got 3 sisters, papa in the can

Desperate times, desperate measures

He pulled a 2-shooter, tell the click I want everything in the register

[Hook:]

Oh... wish this was a Led Zeppelin concert

I wish that it was music when they walked in the building

Someone ring the alarm

It sound like rock n roll

It sound like rock n roll

Oh... wish this was a Metallica concert

I wish that it was music when they walked in the building

Someone ring the alarm

It sound like rock n roll

It sound like rock n roll

Mid Life Crisis lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Maino)

[Intro]

Quincy Jones once told me

The music industry is not a 50 yard dash

It’s global gumbo - and that’s a marathon

Are you ready to finish what you started?

[Verse 1]

Little burns on my back, I’m back from Hell’s fire

Little games, you say the devil’s alive

Anything we can conquer, Olympians

I’m on my second wind running like a Jamaican

I went from dreads to a bald cut

Took the few shots, still caught the wrap-up

Closest they got to me falling was on Dave Chappelle's show

When Dylan was chocking the legend

And what an impression I leave on your girlfriend

Not physically, but it’s my voice that she’s hearing

She like that, aye, sing along - she know the words to every song

Aye, she call me Don Dada - her favorite movie Top Shotter

She love when I speak Creole, what up?

Me and colleagues go back with butter, fuco

[Hook]

Early in morning, you still wake up

Brush my teeth and hit the block up

Hustle hard is what I’m made of

Some cut coke, I cut that guitar up

We keeps many cars with the big rims

Big mansions with Rottweilers fenced in

Some did anything just to get there

Some see fame and some saw the prison

Some see fame and some see the prison

Some see fame and some see the prison

[Verse 2]

You’re doing time, in prison?

Hold your head up, I hope you get a party

Could've been me, in the same place

That’s why every night, I say my grace

Strong-headed, ain't a thing I can't achieve

So off the beat, top three emcees

Music mogul, philanthropy

Y'all know how I do with my epiphanies

Why now? Why not now?

Many'll call but only a few can move the crowd

I started off a battle emcee

Before the Smack DVDs and URL League

But lately, lyrically, been underestimated

But the rap side of my brain is reactivated

But thanks to my momma, used to pray, oh Lord

Have my son focus on music and not a sawed-off

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

Some say I had a mid-life crisis

The colleagues would pick on my birthday

Why envy Charlamagne? It’s my birthday

It, it’s my birthday, it, it’s my birthday

But who know where we going, papi?

What it do? The catwalk, fashion week

"Ne me quitter pas", that mean "no, never leave me"

What’s funny, man, she don’t even know me

Aye, she like that, aye, sing along

She know the words to every song

Aye, she like that - gettin' her dance on

She know the words to all my songs

Go girl - shake it

But don’t hurt nobody

It’s the Refugee Republic

All hands on deck - DJs on deck

Some see fame and some saw the prison

Some see fame and some see the prison

Some see fame and some see the prison

[Outro]

Ladies and gentlemen

Could somebody pass me my electric guitar?

The Shrine lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Choppa Zoe)

And I'm a show em how to hustle

This the life, this the struggle

[Hook 1:]

I'm on my Cuba, where the VI social club

Aye aye aye

Some fall for the Columbian

I'm rollin with the Panamanian

And I'm movin with Dominican

You tryna have a conversation with a Mexican

One life, one heart

I love the Coheba

I got to celebrate 'cause I ain't promised tomorrow

[Verse 1:]

I swear this life heaven 'cause I came from here

Set the game on flame, watch me give em hell

17, I was locked down in a cell

Man this life ain't for me, is what I told myself

Age coming on the mama, know she need the help

Haiti still in the range, know they need the help

Should elect Wyclef for prez 'cus that woulda helped

Game of 21, every man for himself

'79 – uncle left Haiti to chase the wealth

18 – did the same just to chase the wealth

Have a space plan, they recall a midget deal

She was a 8, 9, 10 'cus the money help

Cuban mom they got that juicy so I call er welch

Was on the A kind, never seen bad as hell

Instead of standing like a man, suck a nigga lip

Dreamin all on his own, all by myself

I'm putting on for my city all by myself

I was movin all the peas all by myself

I refused but he workin them odd jobs

A nigga grind hard, that's why these Haitians die hard

[Hook 1:]

I'm on my Cuba, where the VI social club

Aye aye aye

Some fall for the Columbian

I'm rollin with the Panamanian

And I'm movin with Dominican

You tryna have a conversation with a Mexican

One life, one heart

I love the Coheba

I got to celebrate 'cause I ain't promised tomorrow

[Verse 2:]

I'm on my fella Gucci shit, I ran for president

They said I got no residence, what's the evidence?

All I wanted to do was bring my country a new dream

They thought I had the policies like hatin on me

I paint them pictures with my rap line (Picasso)

Got soldiers, boy they young in minds

AK-47 is the gun of choice

A million voices, left for one to no choice

Hootsy Tootsy, what's next?

Everybody got a gang, we all throwin stacks

I got a whole gang and they all from Cuba

Reppin that Santa Maria

Avon bought that track with the latin blood

Believers better be on board, I'm on that Noah's flood

Yea, man I love it in America

Like Eddie Griffin man, comin to America

Real talk man, I worked in the fast foods

Plucked the managers, they all good

Can't see the vision of a young man

I had a plan to get a big bang

[Bridge:]

This the life, this the struggle

And I'm a show em how to hustle

This the life, this the struggle

And I'm a show em how to hustle

[Hook 2:]

I'm on my Cuba, where the VI social club

Aye aye aye

I'm in the club with the Nigerians

And by the way that she movin now you know she is Brazilian

Any problem with Dominicans

Then it's back on the plane and I'm headed to the motherland

One love, one heart

I love the Coheba

I got to celebrate 'cause I ain't promised tomorrow

[Verse 3:]

Me and the mexicans got something in common

We all got problems with immigration

Why you tryna send my parents back to they country?

Many people embark from the land of the free

I was raised with them grizzly grizzly grizzly bears

And the way you runnin they can smell the fear

And I can see your eyes, you ain't ready for this

And I can see the Future, Nostradamus

And I can see the president on my laptop

Playin the game of life on my X-Box

We're in Papoto, lookin like real life

No I'm still in sue, Miami Vice

And be clear, this is more than rappers real words

We do them real movies – Spielberg

Have you heard? General's back

The word on the street, every time rap

Gotta make sense every sentence

This is more than rap, it's real life convinced

True TV, 3D vision

Stevie Wonder, superstition

[Hook 2:]

I'm on my Cuba, where the VI social club

Aye aye aye

I'm in the club with the Nigerians

And by the way that she movin now you know she is Brazilian

Any problem with Dominicans

Then it's back on the plane and I'm headed to the motherland

One love, one heart

I love the Coheba

I got to celebrate 'cause I ain't promised tomorrow

One love, one heart

Stay On My Jimi Hendrix - Hip Hop Guitarist lyrics - Wyclef Jean

Real talk

Get back in the crib, sing every Red Hot Chili Pepper song that they ever did

[Hook:]

Ayo I stay on my Jimi Hendrix

Aye, stay on my Jimi Hendrix

Hard Times lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. G Fella)

[Intro]

[Verse 1:]

This one dedicated to those that come to NYC

Went from illegal aliens to the recalled ID

But once they break the law I see them boys turned to deportees

And it's the same story from Haiti down to Sicily

Them boys speak broken English, like what's the matter you?

Slurping in the rainbow got them thinking I knew voodoo

Okay Um just called me, said he got a job for us

Pick up the bag and see the guy and bring a the money a back for us

Oh, just for us I bring it back I mean I get the car

I'll give you a little something something just keep your mouth to shut

Now I'm in the station, they want information,

My English not too good officer, I'm a Haitian

Maron is havin a bitchin, I got a coart a freakin a guy

That killed a guy that killed a guy

Then we get the charge and go bye

Ciao ciao mister Officer, wooh, this was a close one

You kept your mouth to shut, aye... you a good one

[Hook:]

Having a hard time in this crazy town

Having a hard time in this crazy town

If you make it in New York you can make it anywhere

[Verse 2:]

Broch pon as a baby, pops a moment of struggle

They could smile at the devil, and just laugh at the troubles,

Didn't want us to prosper, we just labeled as mobsters

But we did what we got to, stood tall like an Oscar

An army with us, mumble then, uncle Micky with us

They know what it's like in the ping, over talent, can't forget em

You can't win I don't lose, stick with the both lose

Clef and I got a song, union like the locals

Colorful punch, white, black, yellow, pink, brown

And that old slice here, loudly without sound

Smell sweet, you move in numbers like ants on the ground

Take pictures like when you're a kid and yo aunts is around

Feet planted like roots, fire known to resist me

I'm stand up in my city, plus the Haitians is with me

Different world but the same, Clef know why we still standin

Green, white and red but the Haiti flag, poppin 2 cannons

[Hook:]

Having a hard time in this crazy town

Having a hard time in this crazy town

(Even though you have a hard time in this crazy town)

(Mama told me)

If you make it in New York you can make it anywhere

Having a hard times in this crazy town

Having...

[Verse 3:]

Fresh off the boat, land in Coney Island

A Haitian in Brooklyn, Dodgers stadium

Mischief night, throwin eggs off the roof, me and my brothers

My cousin got a connect, he want us to check with them good fellas

But mom told me don't tangle with Haitians, Sicilians

So when I said that on the score it was more than the writin

Welcome to a page of my black and white note yea

With dishwashers and maintenance and then turn the books

Learn to handle coves as quick, no fingerprints

Michael Jackson glove with a Desito brick

Drive by, we're ninjas, suited up gorillas

Where a man a leave you in the trunk for days, G Fellas

Yea the G Fellas connected with Italiani

Ran for president, I guess I'm movin like the Kennedy

And despite the hard times, the wear and tear

If you make it in New York you can make it anywhere

[Hook:]

Having a hard time in this crazy town

Having a hard time in this crazy town

(Even though you're having a hard time in this crazy town)

Having a hard time in this crazy town

(Mama told me)

If you make it in New York you can make it anywhere

Having a hard time in this crazy town

Having a hard time in this crazy town

Having a hard time in this crazy town

If you make it in New York you can make it anywhere

Death Wish lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Opium Black)

[Intro:]

Wyclef, long side, Opium Black, aye!

Caribbean connection

Listen Black!

[Hook:]

I tried to warn him, 20 grand

And now they offed him

He down in Miami, sleeping with the dolphins

We tried to warn him

I think he crazy, boy

Must've had a death wish

You must've had a death wish

If you're gonna test Opium Black

I really think you must've had a death wish

Talk to them, Black

[Verse:]

To the slums I pull press, my pink's on 6

Fresh in a boatload to risk them bricks

Banana bro, banana clip

I hope you make afloat the way jumping ship

Need an antidote, I talk poisonous

This shit I smoke is the noisiest

Red light, green light, ma, you say what it would be like

This from street lights niggas that put in work

Millionaires, that Korean dirt

Coffin, clothes, feed the trash, fear empire, feed your thirst

I mean that, top of the life

You don't know about what your running at the O's boy must you hate that

Wild for tonight, time to run for your life

Well, you're dead, can't give me no feedback

Big ole chopper, big ole timber, shut up copper

Robocop informer, tell em oh me, I smoke marijuana

Middle finger to the test, fuck you honor

Never drive by may I walk up on you

Monkey, banana, clip, drama

Arrange for me to go down, work hard

Wait for me to go down, trust nothing

Slick women took ya down, get money

Eat with me, nigga down

You in a fish bowl, I'm in a shark tank

When you're this cold you give God thanks

You in bitch mode, we all rank, you bait

[Hook:]

I tried to warn him, 20 grand

And now they offed him

He down in Miami, sleeping with the dolphins

We tried to warn him

I think he crazy, boy

Must've had a death wish

I really dig, man

You must've had a death wish

If you're gonna test Opium Black

I really think you must've had a death wish

Talk to them, Black!

Started From The Bottom Interlude lyrics - Wyclef Jean

[Bridge:]

I love you in your fast car

With your hair blowing back and the smile of a star

Everybody know who you are

Singing every Drake song on the billboard chart

Thought I was going to November,

But you saw me in December

Camp fire in Aruba,

That's when we lit it up, started to blaze

Reminiscing on the old school days

[Hook 1:]

Started out in Haiti, now we here

Started out in Haiti, now the whole Sosa here

Started out in Haiti, now we here

Started out in Haiti, now the whole Sosa here

Started out in Haiti, now we here

Started out in Haiti, now the whole Sosa here

Started out in Haiti, now we here

Started out in Haiti, now the whole Sosa here

[Verse 1:]

How you deal with all the mad press? Tell me does it hurt

What you gonna tell em man I used to eat dirt?

Started in the bottom in a hut with no shirt

Now I'm living in a mansion, tell me what's worse

Couple bad investments, I'm a raise up my stock

Man I'm sitting with the Russians and talking on the yacht

They say Clef you wanna be the good prez

But you gonna be a better mogul music exec

[Hook 2:]

Cause you started from the bottom now you're here

Started from the bottom now the whole dudes are here

Started from the bottom now we here

Man we started from the bottom now the whole dudes are here

[Verse 2:]

The word on the street we turned at a general

The girls love it when I speak that creole

Saca faite, aki S who Vinnie lie

Who told Belvedere who got bizz with makiage

No te come and say, um baka, did you know me keep you up

No te come and say, um baka, did you know me keep you up

No te come and say, um baka, did you know me keep you up

Wyclef with that bilingual flow

Yeah been a long time yo, I shouldn't kept y'all

But I was too busy running for president y'all

Now that we got a president, I'm back on my grind y'all

Doin what I do best, turn up my keyboard

Refugee Republic tryina sign em real acts yo

You play that guitar girl, you got a band

Send me a pic, on your Instagram

[Bridge:]

I love you in your fast car

With your hair blowing back and the smile of a star

Everybody know who you are

Singing every Drake song on the billboard chart

Thought I was going to November,

But you saw me in December

Camp fire in Aruba,

That's when we lit it up, started to blaze

Reminiscing on the old school days

[Hook 3:]

We started from the bottom, now we here

[Intro:]

It's Wyclef aka the General

Hatian Fresh, Toby, Action Chef, Young...

Now we'd like to take a trip to Chicago

What we got to Chicago?

And we lit it up.

The Buzz lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Trini)

[Intro:]

Ya'll know what it is man, April Showers Mixtape

Man we take it to a new level man

It's beyond the movie, man we do epics, ya'll know what it is

Speakin of epics, I wanna bring my new female emcee

She straight out of Trinidad but we're in Brooklyn

Check out, she go by the name of Trini man

Dangerous

[Verse 1:]

Yo I like a nigga that lives at the hand of a crazy bitch

'Cause I'm crazy bitch and I'm crazy sick

And I swear sometimes I be feelin like me

So whatever that be on some Jay-Z shit

Copy with the pon that ego, lil pussy T-Bow

And the game better be with me,

Because my pussy's evil

Plus my flow got a fever, if I fuck Rick Ross he might have another seizure

I'm a gamma rose, watch while I'll give head to Wiz Khalifa

I'm no diva but for Franklins I would turn into a freak

I'm no Lady Luck, but I eat bitches alive

So fly, pop the shit in the sky

Might tie a nigga down and piss in his eye

Far from honey, they call me the queen of the hive

I spit it nasty light that bitch that gave that shit to Easy

And I could bring the super freak out of Jeezy

And I could add baby to his Weezy

He gonna need a pump just to eat me

I'll leave Santana harder than the hammer,

Come on and whipe it up with his bandana

Lands ain't safe, I had lung like Drake along

Made Gucci Mane tattoo my pussy on his face

I stay with that Mary Jane, I be getting more hits than Beats by Dre

And I would turn into a bagel like Anita for the cake

Got that Waka Flocka flame, they gonna have to let it burn

I usher niggas out the game so hate it or love it

I'm in the game

[Hook:]

I'm getting my buzz on,

We're getting our buzz on

Puff puff pass, puff puff pass

I got twenty on the buzz

I got sixty on the buzz,

I got a young on the buzz

Puff puff pass, puff puff pass

[Verse 2:]

Ayo my shit is heavy and most of y'all emcees light

And I say that with no disrespect to MC life

It's T R I N, they can't see I

If I was 20, still creepin, seen the Tunechi ah

I am hot enough to turn Chris Brown

I'm like a nigga with a real Big Sean

No mercy to the fake, coppin shot Trevon

Pour some liquor out, bottom's up, Trey Songz

I'm every rapper's delight, Sugar Hill

I'm the meek that will inherit the earth and Meek Millz

Jet life, Curren$y is my aim,

Call in vain but I'm a spend it no 2 chains

We are young but I'm making no fun

If Chris cab it to the crib to bring me Rihanna's gun

And I will take the chicken to the slaughter house and let the codeine murder her

Just call me Venus or Serena when I'm servin her

All hands on deck, you gotta love it

I should put a condom on the mic and then fuck it

Nah fuck it, I should go Lady Gaga, meat suit boy, rush all over the track

And it's gon be a wrap when I leave this game lookin like Jim Jones in the Suicide Pack

[Hook:]

I'm getting my buzz on,

We're getting our buzz on

Puff puff pass, puff puff pass

I got twenty on the buzz

I got sixty on the buzz,

I got a young on the buzz

Puff puff pass, puff puff pass

[Verse 3:]

Without the J I'm Cole (d)

Matter of fact, Nat King Cole

I spit it so slick but you could say I'm slow

I'm tryina to it big like I'm holding big soul,

It's gonna get Mobb Deep on the ready

I'm bout to put this game on luck, three Grammy

How many lames get killed? Many

Many money, many many many

Many man get killed for the money

Mama say, mama ma husa like Feni

I mean fella

If order mac and cheese show the bitch that Trini with French Montana

My rhymes is nasty, Nas like calm in a movie

Death, now the preachers done broke up, Wyclef

[Hook:]

I'm getting my buzz on,

We're getting our buzz on

Puff puff pass, puff puff pass

I got twenty on the buzz

I got sixty on the buzz,

I got a young on the buzz

Puff puff pass, puff puff pass

[Outro:]

Yea that was Trini right there man

She bringing some of that 90's vibe back, you know?

Late 90's, early 2000's, you know what I mean?

Shout out to all them females emcees out there, nothing but respect

Main Dish lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Jarina De Marco)

[Intro:]

Yo right about now, this next girl I'm about to bring to ya'll

Yo, word to my mama man

She opened up for me when she was like 12 years old

You know what I mean?

The Fugees, she opened for Fugees in Haiti dog

Real talk, we should go back to the Jarina De Marco

She sings in like 4 languages

See ya'll ya'll know me man

Refugee Republic, ya'll know it's gon be different when I come with it man

All hands on deck boy

Stay off that Instagram nigga

Just give to em

[?]

[Bridge:]

Gather wealth, keep spinning, I can feel the gravity

Tryina pull me down but it can't hold me

The world keep spinning, I can feel the gravity

Tryina pull me down but it can't hold me

[Verse 1:]

At the age of 5 got kicked out of DR, revolution from the start

Baby girl like a doll, next stop – luxury all

Parlez vous Francais? Oui, monsieur, I do

But if you stare at me too long I'll put a wicked spell on you

Yeah, you know I'm it, I can see I'm on your wish list

Like the drama boy waiting for gifts on Christmas

[Chorus 1:]

Us art girls we're terrible, we're dangerous

But you can't stay away from my huska boy 'cause you love my main dish

He love my main dish

He love my, he love my

He love my main dish

He la la, he la la

Us art girls we're terrible, we're dangerous

But you can't stay away from my huska boy 'cause you love my main dish

[Bridge:]

Gather wealth, keep spinning, I can feel the gravity

Tryina pull me down but it can't hold me

The world keep spinning, I can feel the gravity

Tryina pull me down but it can't hold me

[Verse 2:]

I'm an exemplary combination, killer DNA formation

Mix race, pretty face, we embody all the nations

Love me, love me, love me

Tell me, tell me, tell me sailor, what can you see?

Gonna take a lot of swimmin to get to me

I'm the little pretty mermaid under the sea

Listen to me now

Yeah, I can feel it in the air

The storm's getting closer, got a tropical flair

[Chorus 2:]

Us art girls we're terrible, we're dangerous

But you can't stay away from my huska boy 'cause you love my main dish

He love my main dish

He la la, he la la

He love my main dish

He la la, he la la

He love my main dish

He la la, he la la

He love my main dish

He la la, he la la

[Outro:]

Man, that was the song of Jarina De Marco

Get familiar with it, the future looks bright

Real City lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Imposs)

[Intro:]

Your next brother coming up, man

You know, I call him like you know Wyclef's a little brother besides of their concern

And first time I heard of this dude, man

I'm glad to see other Haitians coming up.

This kid rhyme, he sings, he produce

Well my man 13, he go by the name of Imposs

He's really my lil brother right here!

Get into it, man! This one called "Real City"!

Montreal is real, you know what I mean?

Believe that!

Let's get into it, Imposs

By now you should know that we're Haitians!

Migrate from Haiti, end up in Brooklyn, Canada, Miami,

Atlanta, Boston, now we're all over the world!

[Bridge 1:]

How y'all doing? Talk classy

Comment ça va ce soir?

Tu sais déjà who we are

Try to keep up with the bars, cause we're about to go hard!

[Hook:]

About to go amazing

Everywhere we go, man they're rocking with the Haitian

We're about to go amazing, about to go amazing

Everywhere we go, man they're rocking with the Haitian!

[Verse 1:]

Uh, eat 'em up, spit them out

They're all part of my food chain

Gotham, Bruce Wayne, running shit, man I'm Hussein

Move back, niggas you're saying

Don't get killed on that power trip

Niggas change and go Hollywood

And disappear like magic, Dwight Howard shit

Oh you thought we was ballin hah?

We're still up in them warm up suits

Getting texts to your girl

Sayin I think of you, horse's shoe

Horse power on a brand new car

Got them horses on the polo drawers

You would think that we're on the ran

So advanced, you know the protocol.

[Bridge 2:]

I was sent by the preacher's son

I want you all screaming, "he's the one!"

Baby girl, I spent the day with him

We're snapping pics like we yayin cam

Mind right cause my heart left

We're rolling like a car theft

We want world peace like artists,

But not to kill the mother fuckers of a heart test.

[Hook:]

About to go amazing

About to go amazing

Everywhere we go, man they're rocking with the Haitian

We're about to go amazing, about to go amazing

Everywhere we go, man they're rocking with the Haitian!

[Verse 2:]

"I paged you", says the boss who considers himself powerful

"But you didn't buy me", says the man

"You're just a coward dude!"

I'm on the dollar bill, I live where the owls go

Only when family is threatened, that's when I will pull

I got nothing to lose, that's a damn lie!

I see you people cry when your man's die, men's die!

And you ain't got no backup, you a stand by

And that ain't your shooter, that's your man's gun

And you ain't real, you're acting ya'll

You only shoot when the director says to go, go

And next to blow, that's my little bro

Imposs from a land where's extra cold!

Montreal, it get hot, everybody wanna be a zone desperado

I see Ralo big and hollow

In the belly of the beast, you can swallow.

[Bridge:]

How y'all doing? Talk classy

We're about to go amazing, about to go amazing

Everywhere we go, man they're rocking with the Haitian!

[Verse 3:]

Yeah, ice-cream color chains, Ben and Jerry

Legendary like Clef and Jerry

Me and 13, that new Snoop and Dre

That Pete Rock and C yea, that new Drake and 40.

From drinking 40's, to sippin spades at the 40-40

Yeah, I'm getting it now

Imagine what I'll be getting at 40

Life's a bitch, and she talking about you can't afford me

Prove her wrong, make her dance, and then go get your glory!

Make her strip on that pole, Babel tower

Then you'll get the naked truth at the final hour.

Building for the future, living like there's no tomorrow

Closed session, got enough bottles to drown your sorrows.

Fly above the forecast, Jacobs trickin that top glass

A couple girls getting orgasms

Cause I mastered the art craft.

Actors sits like the car crashed

We're too much for you dummies, now!

If you want the beef with 13? Ask my brother Semi it's a hundred times.

[Bridge:]

How y'all doing? Talk classy

So when I went down there, you know?

Yacht Club lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Skiff)

[Intro:]

Yalready know what it is man

Yo, I gotta leave ya'll with some 90's hiph-hop

I mean this kid right here, he influences 90's hip-hop man, you know?

But he only like 20 some, you know what I mean?

Classic hip-hop

Ya'll know what it is man, April Shower

Hope you enjoyed the tape, look out for the album

Yo Sydec, what the album called again?

The Carnival Begins

Como you hear a lot about it, no?

The Carnival Begins

Yo, what's the name of the album?

The Carnival Begins

Ladies and gents, change in talk yea

The abyss scary, alright

Dressed like I'm headed to a yacht club social

Fresh, fresh, fresh to death

Dressed like I'm headed to a yacht club social

Fresh, fresh, fresh to death

[Verse 1:]

Hanging out with tax evaders, white collar criminals

Chemist dudes, making money off illegal chemicals

Welcome to my yacht club, naked women, hot tubs

Come and get your membership

Remember just to pop up

Bomberdering with members of parliament while I'm partying no arguing

The hardest regardless whenever harboring

Hanging out with socialist, smoking over some poker chips

Motor boats and tits, frozen wrists, get a load of this, fantastic

I'm back in the building to bag shit

White on white like the Utah jazz in practice

I'm taking shots on Dodge, you hang with cops on blocks

I got women on top on women, talking bout your bop

[Hook: x2]

Wish life was like a yacht club,

Every woman I'm getting, how can you stop us

We got judges on budget, not getting locked up

We don't wanna work a 9 to 5

[Verse 2:]

Mister Enthusiastic, I keep a doobie wrapped with

Hit boobie traps to a cutie's ass, when I move in traffic

New is the fabric, I've been established, truly the baddest,

Designer issues, my women coming with Louie baggage

With politicians, their mission is product driven

Man giving the situation, the bacon the prolly given

If they lot are wearing daughtersmy target's near open waters

Overall into parlor, but ballin so they applaud us

Sippin on foreign lagers, harvested at a mugging

Don't park it, you gotta jock it, the carpet matches my watch

I'm a star on the yacht, that's a motherfuckin spaceship

Wasted, double deck better let the pain drip

I'm rockin sandals when it's hot, it's the land of sinnin hammocks when others panic,

But damn that I've been managing

Fresh, fresh, fresh to death

[Hook: x2]

Wish life was like a yacht club,

Every woman I'm getting, how can you stop us

We got judges on budget, not getting locked up

We don't wanna work a 9 to 5

[Verse 3:]

Up in some turbulence, they well cultivated the courteous

The verdict is suburban and urban persons are both conferment

I'm furnace in this bitch, now just picture me turning it, permanent

How many people wanna ride tonight?

Talking big bucks bitch, like the sender from Milwaukee

Barclay's, when they putting liquor in my coffee

Drinkin sake, playin batchi, back and a little bit of hockey

Cocaine with some Jose Cuevo, careful what you don't say copy

Your chick to the video anthem, my shit that's real live action

Buy ships, no projects, my process is taking over rapid

Open bar you could buy yourself, go ahead, there by yourself

Making hots for the higher self

I'm cycled up, for harness you can't buy the belt

Policies, no apologies, all commodities are covered

Don't gotta fee quite possibly, I'm leaving with your girl

I know, I know, they hate the way you down

I don't even own a ship, I got waiters all around

[Hook: x2]

Wish life was like a yacht club,

Every woman I'm getting, how can you stop us

We got judges on budget, not getting locked up

We don't wanna work a 9 to 5
