Red Intro (Explicit)

Lyrics by：Spoken Word

Colombia ruffhouse records present

A refugee camp production

Fugees the score

And now for our feature presentation

Yo this ****** I was wit the other day

I was chillin' with scott and nigga was like

The minute that we got in front of

Our crib with a shotgun

'Cause jokers gonna be bustin' up in there

Trying to get food clothing shelter tv's forks

Radios or whatever they can get there hands on kid

**** is getting mad ill out here man

Joker's running out here with masks on

I was with my man pete think he like

Charlie chan or robert de niro

Or bruce lee or some **** jumping from

Behind trees on **********

Cowboys bang bang or whatever you know

Like my man you

Trying to shoot a joker he had beef with

He wound up shootin' my man up in the street

Trying to be cowboys

They can't even shoot

Trying to be gangsta's but when the beast

Come on the ************ block

Everybody break out

They beat my man bob g up the other day

Cops pigs just vampin' on him everybody

Just standin' around

Just watching that **** take place

Just always morad

'Cause they only gangsta's when

It comes to being gangsta's to they selves

They want to be corleone luigi

Or gambino or gotti

Or whatever the **** that is

Who people don't even like know what I'm sayin'

They run around callin' themselves

Rahiem or fuquan or mustapha

'Cause we think they got power

**** them I got power

I got power I got family I got family

Business on avon

On chancellor on prince street

Chadwick or stratford chancellor uh vailsburg

All of the brick city boy that's my family

We gonna settle the score once and for all

I ain't gonna sit around and let

Jokers kill me softly kid

I'm goin' out I'm goin' out like a bandit

All of these zealots trying to steal

And trying to bite and take what I got

Like all of these big record companies

These corporations these stores they try to rob me

Naw man I'm going I'm a get mine

And my girl we gonna go out together

She gonna be a soldier kid

When I go out she go out

And we gonna make what we believe manifest

**** that 'cause if you ain't ready now

You ain't never gonna be ready I'm always ready
