Fugees - Ready Or Not

Ready or not, here I come

You can't hide

Gonna find you

And take it slowly

Ready or not, here I come

You can't hide

Gonna find you

And make you want me

Now that I escape, sleepwalker awake

Those who could relate know the world ain't cake

Jail bars ain't golden gates Those who fake, they break,

When they meet their 400 pound mate

If I could rule the world, everyone would have a gun

In the ghetto of course, when giddyupin' on their horse

I kick a rhyme drinkin' moonshine

I pour a sip on the concrete, for the deceased

But no don't weep, Wyclef's in a state of sleep

Thinkin' 'bout the robbery, that I did last week.

Money in the bag, banker looked like a drag

I want to play with pelicans from here to Baghdad

Gun blast, think fast, I think I'm hit

My girl pinched my hips to see if I still exist

I think not, I'll send a letter to my friends

A born again hooligan only to be king again

Ready or not, here I come

You can't hide

Gonna find you

And take it slowly

Ready or not, here I come

You can't hide

Gonna find you

And make you want me

Yo, I play my enemies like a game of chess

Where I rest, no stress, if you don't smoke sess, lest

I must confess, my destiny's manifest

In some Goretex and sweats I make treks like I'm homeless

Rap orgies with Porgy and Bess

Capture your bounty like Elliot Ness, yes

Bless you if you represent the Fu

But I'll hex you with some witch's brew if you're Doo Doo

Voo Doo, I can do what you do, easy

Believe me, frontin' niggas give me hee-bee-gee-bees

So while you're imitating Al Capone

I'll be Nina Simone and defecating on your microphone

Ready or not, here I come

You can't hide

Gonna find you

And take it slowly

You can't run away

From these styles I got,

Oh baby, hey baby

Cause I got a lot, oh yeah

And anywhere you go

My whole crew's gonna know,

Oh baby, hey baby

You can't hide from the block, oh no

Ready or not, refugees takin' over

The Buffalo soldier, dread-lock rasta

On the twelfth hour, fly by in my bomber

Crews run for cover, now they're under pushin' up flowers

Superfly true lies, do or die,

Toss me high - only puff lye with my crew from lakay

I refugee from Guantanamo Bay

Dance around the border like I'm Cassius Clay [Yes]

Ready or not, here I come

You can't hide

Gonna find you

And take it slowly

Ready or not, here I come

You can't hide [Ay, yo, nobody move]

Gonna find you

And make you want me

Ready or not, here I come

You can't hide

Gonna find you

And take it slowly

Ready or not, here I come

You can't hide

Gonna find you

And make you want me
