WYCLEF JEAN - Real City lyrics
rate me[Intro:]
Your next brother coming up, man
This is my homie, we’re going way back
You know, I call him like you know what
…little like brother besides what they are saying
First time I heard of this dude, man
I thought he wanted my job, man
You know what I mean?
Shit out of Montreal,
I’m glad to see other Haitian coming out.
This kid rhyme, he sings, he produces
While my man 13 he go by the name of Impose
He’s really my lil brother right here!
Get into it, man! This is called “Real City”!
Montreal is real, you know what I mean?
The leader is getting into an impasse!
By now you should know that we’re Haitians!
Migrate from Haiti, end up in Brooklyn, Canada, Miami,
Atlanta, Boston, now we’re all over the world!
How y’all going?...
Comment ça va ce soir?
..tu sais déjà who we are
Yeah, I’m lingual, trilingual, we kindle, raise the bar
Try to keep up with the boss, cause we’re about to go hard!
Hook:
About to go amazing
About to go amazing
Everywhere we go, man they’re rocking with the Haitian
We’re about to go amazing, about to go amazing
Everywhere we go, man they’re rocking with the Haitian!
Uh, eat ‘em up, spit them out
They’re all part of my food chain
Gotham, Bruce Wayne, running shit when I’m you saying
Move back, niggas you’re saying
Don’t get killed in that power trip
Niggas change and go Hollywood
And disappear like magic… shit.
All you taught me was balling, huh?
We’re still up in ‘em …suits
Getting texts from your girl
Say I don’t think of you…
Horse power on a brand new car
Got them horses on a polo jaws
You would think that we’re on the ran
So advanced, you know the protocol.
I was sent by the preacher’s son
I want you all screaming, “he’s the one!”
Baby girl, I spent the day with him
We’re snapping pics like we’re… camera
My ride cause my heart left
We’re rolling like a car theft
We want world peace like artists,
But not to kill the mother fuckers of a heart test.
Hook:
About to go amazing
About to go amazing
Everywhere we go, man they’re rocking with the Haitian
We’re about to go amazing, about to go amazing
Everywhere we go, man they’re rocking with the Haitian!
“I paged you”, says the boss who considers himself powerful
“But you didn’t buy me”, says the man
“You’re just a coward dude!”
I’m on the dollar bill, I live where the hours go
Only when family is threaten, that’s when I…
I got nothing to lose, that’s a damn lie!
I see you people cry when you men die, men die!
And you ain’t got no backup, you will stand by
And that ain’t your shooter, that’s your man’s gun
And you ain’t real, you’re acting odd
You only shoot when the director says to go, go
And next to blow , that’s my..
..from a land where’s extra cold!
Montreal, it get hot, everybody wanna be a zone desperado
I see… big and hollow
In the belly of the beast, you can swallow.
How y’all going?...
Comment ça va ce soir?
..tu sais déjà who we are
Yeah, I’m lingual, trilingual, we kindle, raise the bar
Try to keep up with the boss, cause we’re about to go hard!
Let’s go!
Hook:
About to go amazing
About to go amazing
Everywhere we go, man they’re rocking with the Haitian
We’re about to go amazing, about to go amazing
Everywhere we go, man they’re rocking with the Haitian!
Yeah, ice-cream color chains, Ben and Jerry
Legendary like Clef and Jerry
Million 13, that ..Snoop and Dree
That be rocking.. that new… and 40.
From drinking 40, the…. at the 40-40
Yeah, I’m getting it now
Imagine what I’ll be getting at 40
Life’s a bitch, and she talking about it, you can’t afford me
Prove her wrong, make her dance, and then go get your glory!
Make her strip on that pole, Babel tower
Then you’ll get the naked truth of the final hour.
Building for the future, living like there’s no tomorrow
Close session, got enough bottles to drown your sorrows.
Fly above the forecast.. strip in that talk glass
A couple girls getting orgasms
Cause I mastered the art craft.
Actors sits like the car crashed
We’re too much for you dummies, now!
If you wanna be … ask my brother… it’s a hundred times.
How y’all going?...
Comment ça va ce soir?
..tu sais déjà who we are
Yeah, I’m lingual, trilingual, we kindle, raise the bar
Try to keep up with the boss, cause we’re about to go hard!
Let’s go!
Hook:
About to go amazing
About to go amazing
Everywhere we go, man they’re rocking with the Haitian
We’re about to go amazing, about to go amazing
Everywhere we go, man they’re rocking with the Haitian!
