Lauryn Hill - Year Of The Dragon lyrics

(sirens) Yo yes yes yo. Lock your door. Die die die (x6) [Wyclef:] I remember comin' from Haiti growin' up in Brooklyn On Flatbush got my first sneakers tooken Learn the game quick so I got my first device Mom moved to Jers' so we could get a better life But little did she know a ghetto is a ghetto Good times found myself like Jimmie Walker sayin' "Cello" [Lauryn:] Yellow cheese bus gettin' beatings if I cuss Lay away another day in stripped Lees and Le Tigres But the lyrical bomber momma tried to stop Paranoid cause this boy around my neighborhood got shot Name plait hair, straight metal braces on my teeth Fat laces on my feet when crack first hits the streets [Wyclef:] I use to push up on a girl Salt 'N' Peppa Push It Push It D's in school cause the music was my focus Jokes in cla** but when I learned I didn't pa** I knew it was my a** with my mothers leather lash Belt buckle said Nelly Nel similar to Melle Mel Hits the third rail Beat Street made Gazzels sells [Lauryn:] As the tale gets poetic watch the streets turn magnetic Tawana Brawley's rape is alleged Hang out in hooky places watch streets corners turn to oasis Young men aspire to be Scarfaces [Hook:] In the year of the dragon lots of men disappear Quiet as it's kept they won't be back next year [Wyclef talking:] Yo yo watch out for the black van. Yo yo (last days last days) planes Exploding yo close your door yo nobody's safe. Halloween. October 31. Yo Close your door yo kids are disappearing. Yo Wyclef: Late at night the light was bright on the [ave] I went to pick up cash from my cousin little Kev He told me Joe had a dream in jail he got steamed His wife became a fiend f**in' little Raheem Damn, d** will make you do terrible things He told me when he get out he's murdering by any means The day came I saw him on the train He pulled his gun and aimed and started firing like the son of Kane I saw civilians runnin' for their life Like the devil on judgement night running from Christ Ice and Amaretto please as I fell to my knees Being shot by Ferguson the vigilante [Hook] [Wyclef talking:] So CNN nawhatI'msayin? Ferguson is at court and he's his own lawyer Youknowmean what's goin' on. Talk to me. This is definatly the last days Jewish calendar has already arrived the year 2000. Watch ya back watch ya back watch ya back DIE DIE DIE DIE [Lauryn:] Clef it kind of remind me of this chick I once knew Use to be a dime now she's strung out in Bellevue See the serpent played tricks run game like the Knicks Build you up just to lose the championship I seen her reminisce over Wu-Tang could It Be that Simple She lost her Prince cause there were Thieves In the Temple Tragic depression made her lose all her teeth Lost and turned out gave her body to the streets Sweet Mary don't you weep Still water runs deep So be carful of the company you keep [Hook] [Wyclef talking:] Yo I'm frustrated youknowhatI'mean? Use to work at McDonalds just got Fired If I get in I'm sprayin' everybody the boss the manager yo these are Definitely the last days. Yo here he comes with his gun yo duck duck. Black Panther yo nobody's protected. Yo 6-6-6 watch your back don't get caught in The rapture yo AIDS, Moses the plaque watch your back. Pharaoh, let my people Go! Yo watch your back. Last days. Last days. Nobody's protected. Yo my little Sister is Rosey Sharen. Yo yo nobody's protected. Not even Rosey Sharen Nobody's protected. Yo you come try to get my sister I'm a get you first I'm a be driving a hearse. Cause nobody's protected
