Fugees - Don't Cry Dry Your Eyes lyrics
[Fugees - Don't Cry Dry Your Eyes lyrics]
(yeah, yeah Refugee Camp unh! Ahh)
Yoit never stops, what?!
We comin' back! (Murder dat buoy)
Ninety seven to two thousand, check it!
(Ha! Ha! La)
Jericho sound no Woman No Cry
(We 'bout to set it) yes! Yes!
(We 'bout to set it) Yo! We 'bout
To set it! (L-Boogie, yes yo, what?)
We 'bout to set it!
(We'bout to set it) Yes! We 'bout to
Set it! (We 'bout to set it)
Yo, L won't take the mark
Though I swim with sharks
I make the dark see the light
Board the ark for forty nights
Times reveal a broken seal, like a
(pause) fiend steal
You for fake, I'm for real
Like Jesus Christ's last meal
You make deals with devils
The soul descends infinite levels
Pray to God I see the next
Rescripture in Holy text then
Ask to be forgiven for premarital sex
In the same breath I speak
With death about the times
And how many joined his
Army over bullshit rhymes
You see L change the topic
Clear as fiber-optics
Make talk about your clothes
Become microscopic decisions
Young bitches in prison
Messing 'round with that life
Thug, drug dealer wife
Consequence cut like a knife
Then we learned that
Only Jah and God can protect
You know the story
Housing projects is purgatory
So, teach the youths they got
More rights than Miranda
Tell 'em this whole shit is propaganda! Word!
Yo, sound system, you know what I'm sayin'?!
Jericho Soundsystem!
Turn up your soundsystems!
Yo, here he comes down the road
A black Maserati, what up Raheem?
(Whatup?! Whatup?! Whatup?)
He never fought unless necessary
You shot at? He shot back
The whole block felt the bang
Last man to fight with his fists
His name was Jackie Chan
Not Charles Brownson
Once you hear the whistle
Even Grandmas is stackin' up
On old wooden pistols
Nobody's thinking by the time
You're done blinking
Cold freezer, so your body won't be stinkin'
Read the will
He left the bills for his daughter Soleil
Last words written just before he got killed
Woman cry (Crying) why wasn't I the one?
Not knowing, the omen was her son DAMIEN!
(Demonic voice in background)
Father forgive 'em
For they know not what they done
Their meaning of fun is who
Can draw the quicker gun easy with the fizi
Second rate the violence
Those who disagree hear your
Ashes blow in silence!
Yo! Turn up your sound system!
This is the Refugee Camp!
Jericho Sound System! Know what I'm sayin'?!
Te Bass production!
Refugee Camp collaboration!
Turn up your sound system!
Come on! Turn up your boom system!
This is how we do, turn it up, come on!
From the heart of Kingston
To the streets of Brooklyn-Marcy
All the way to the highest
Peak of any frequency, unhh!
Illegal aliens, them all run invasions
Broadcasting all over your radio stations
(Radio station)
Mathematics, lead me to believe
There's mysteries in numbers
Lightning and thunder
Enough ribbons in the sky
(Ribbon In The Sky) to make Stevie Wonder
And man it works
To say I come from down under
(Come from down under)
The wiz kid got no ride
You frontin' at the bar
(You frontin' at the bar)
You ain't a star you rolled
Up in somebody else's car
(You rolled up in somebody else's car)
You know the deal! BMW, Black Man Walking
Came home your
Timberlands was talkin'! (Uh, huh)
Niggas jealous cause the truth
I said in Zealots
Well let me tell itwithout Premier
You couldn't sell it!
(Murder dat buoy!)
We 'bout to set it
Yes! Yes! Jericho Sound! L-Boogie you
Know what I'm sayin?
We gonna come like Star Wars
You know what I'm saying? We 'bout to set it!
1997 to the year 2001!
Ichi-Bang! Even in Japan! Yo, L you know the
Flavor! Battle star galactical!
Who wanna battle?! Battle star galactical!
Come on! You know the
Flavor! Jericho Allstars
(Something in Creole)
You know what I'm saying? You know
Like the V remember V
The old show we used to watch that?
Yoyou know what I mean?! We 'bout to set it!
Know what I'm sayin'! We 'bout to take y'all
You know what I'm sayin'?!
Remember Mork & Mindy? We used to sit back
Happy Days
You know what I'm saying? We 'bout to set it
But yo! Kids ain't playin' that no more
Know what I'm sayin'?
Niggas packin' pistols, once you
Hear the whistle, we 'bout to set it!
You know what I mean? Yo! You know
The flavor! You know what I mean?!
Yo man! You know what
I'm saying?! Good Times, jJ
