Wyclef Jean

Intro:
(sirens) yo yes yes yo. lock your door. die die die (x6)
Wyclef:
I remember comin' from hati growin' up in brooklyn
On flat bush got my first sneakers tooken
Learn the game quick so i got my first device
Mom move to jersey so we could get a better life
But little did she know a ghetto is a ghetto
Good time found myself like jimmy walker sayin' "cello"
Lauryn:
Yellow cheese bus gettin' beatings if i cuss
Lay away another day in stripped lees and letegrays
But the lyrical bomber momma tried to stop
Paranoid cause this boy around my neighborhood got shot
Name plate hair straight metal braces on my teeth
Fat laces on my feet when crack first hits the streets
Wyclef:
I use to push up on a girl salt 'n' peppa push it push it
D's in school cause the music was my focus
Jokes in class but when i learned i didn't pass
I knew it was my ass with my mothers leather lash
Belt buckle said nelly nel similar to melle mel
Hits the third rail beat street made gazzels sells
Lauryn:
As the tale gets poetic watch the streets turn magnetic
Towanna balley's rape is alleged
Hang out in hooky places watch streets corners turn to oasis
Young men aspire to be scarfaces
Hook:
In the year of the dragon lots of men disappear
Quiet as it's kept they won't be around next year
Wyclef talking:
Yo yo watch out for the black van. yo yo (last days last days) planes
Exploding yo close your door yo nobody's safe. halloween. october 31. yo
Close your
Door yo kids are disappearing. yo
Wyclef:
Late at night the light was bright on the ave
I went to pick up cash from my cousin little kev
He told me joe had a dream in jail he got steamed
