Wyclef Jean - Kick Knowledge lyrics

I'm a aks the new generation a question
Showin hands
How many ya'll wanna be the young and down?
How many ya'll wanna be the Kick Knowledge?
Show your hands, show you hands

Listen, Kick Knowledge, young and down
Kick Knowledge, nah young and down
Kick Knowledge, nah young and down

Kick Knowledge, man the college
I ain't stayed long
I went from the hood to a cottage
Pursued my dreams, started making beats
Ready or not, here I come
I'm with them Refugees
Young and down, I'm in the club
Gold chain, gold ring
The girlie luv them thugs
We poppin mollies, this is how we do
Middle finger at them haters
Who the fuck are you?
Kick Knowledge, Haitian born
I'm the American Dream underground
Like Hariette Tubman
When beef sparks, my dogs bark
We play the front at the bus, Rose pops

Kick Knowledge, young and down
Kick Knowledge, nah young and down
Kick Knowledge, nah young and down

Young and down, I got 50 bitches
I keep them hoes in the block
See them bitches trickin
And I don't give a fuck what
The bitches try to be
At the end of the night
You better have my monthly
Kick Knowledge, I'm like Malcolm X
By any means necessary, man I keep a tab
Man I ran for president all them def beats
Got me paranoid, who they gonna shoot next?

Shit I Kick Knowledge shit I Kick Knowledge
Shit I Kick Knowledge young and down

Young and down, man I'm so icy
So flashy, print our own money
With my face on it, Abraham Lincoln
Young and down, Sarah Palin
Kick Knowledge, I see you rap children
Before you buy the car
Ya'll need to buy the building
Cause time gon come you gonna make that cake
And you gotta fall back on that realestate
Young and down, see my gold fronts
I'm throwin bands, I sign my dum
She poppin poppin poppin pussy
All the way back to the hotel
Ya'll know my slogan – everything fo sale

Kick Knowledge, nah young and down
Kick Knowledge, nah young and down
Kick Knowledge, nah young and down

Young and down, I'm selling coke
I'm selling smoke, I'm selling dope
On the block you know fiends
Come by the dozen
You know we sell our yay from
The night to the morning
Kick Knowledge, Martin Luther King
He barely slept, but he had a dream
I'm from Haiti so ya'll know
I rep true celeboture
First black republic, 18-04

Kick Knowledge, nah young and down
Kick Knowledge, nah young and down
Kick Knowledge, nah young and down
