The return of the hip hop ammadeus
|
Wyclef Toussaint St. Jean drama
|
Streets prounounce me dead [x6]
|
I tell em I'm alive but rumor says I'm dead
|
The reserucction of the dead... I could never get
|
And if I ever die, all I do is ride
|
|
The streets prounounce me dead
|
Puttin 2 holes in my head
|
At the funeral, I had more friends than the grateful dead
|
Haters started talkin sayin I went left
|
Akon took my spot will I am took my vest
|
Started beatin on the coffin cause I could hear the crowd
|
But they can't hear me cause lil' jon's preachin too loud
|
That's when the bishop said last words for friends and family
|
Then the fans stood up and said y'all forgot the fugees
|
50 million records sold straight from the basement
|
How y'all gon tell me wyclef is irrelevant
|
A rapper stood up and said yup I got amnesia
|
Last time I remember him was gone til novemeber
|
He said I don't spit no more all I do is sing songs
|
Last time he felt me was when I rhymed with Big Pun
|
That's ightt get the hate off ya chest
|
You a rap con artist not a Kanye West (I AINT DEAD!)
|
|
Streets prounounce me dead [x6]
|
I tell em I'm alive but rumor says I'm dead
|
The reserruction of the dead... I could never get
|
And if I ever die, all I do is ride
|
|
I mean the streets say it's been a while since they heard me spit
|
That I spit so hard my ghostwriter must be cannubis
|
But far permit, this is how I started
|
But my battle raps couldn't get me groceries from the super market
|
So I found another target to aim at
|
I went from food stamps to the black a mac's
|
8 track cassettes the cd's the ipod's
|
Bmx bixes the hoopdies the hot rods
|
And my swag come from nazareth
|
How you gone say I'm dead when I rose like lazareth
|
And this ain't mystic I ain't talkin voodoo
|
We do carry spears like the zulu's
|
So watch your mouth boy I ain't dead
|
Fo' the city gon turn red, blood will shed
|
So before you speak boy watch your tone
|
Fo' my chrome gon turn you to a statue of stone (I AINT DEAD!)
|
|
Streets prounounce me dead [x6]
|
I tell em I'm alive but rumor says I'm dead
|
The reserruction of the dead... I could never get
|
And if I ever die, all I do is ride
|
|
They all got shocked when I rose from the coffin
|
Dust my self off then headed out to new jerusalem
|
Destroyed and rebuilt
|
My voice sound like silk
|
Audio tune like milk
|
I used to shop lift with no guilt
|
And christimas time toy guns the size of elves
|
I seen the ra-ta-ta-ta turn into the real shells
|
Yup killa you press ya luck
|
Went to sleep in the pond, woke up with the ducks
|
And this ain't gangsta talk, I don't talk the talk
|
I suggest you walk or get outlined in chalk
|
And you ain't from the street
|
But yet you walk the streets, you a C.O.P. a cop walkin the beat
|
But the rule on the streets they could turn on you
|
Like a pitbull after givin him food
|
Or the girl that you bought all the cars and the jewels
|
Only to find out on memorial dey fuckin in the swimmin pool (I AINT DEAD!)
|
|
Streets prounounce me dead [x6]
|
I tell em I'm alive but rumor says I'm dead
|
The reserruction of the dead... I could never get
|
And if I ever die, all I do is ride
|
|
Yea
|
Warriors music
|
Drama
|
From the hut, to the projects, to the mansions
|
So ya'll know you ya'll ain't got no excuses
|
|
I'm aliveeee
