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.

[CLEF:]

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.

[LAURYN:]

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 defacating on your microphone.

Chorus

Ready Or Not, Here I Come, You Can't Hide

Gonna Find You and Take it Slowly

[LAURYN'S INTERLUDE]

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.

[PRAZ:]

Ready or not, refugees takin' over

The Buffalo soldier, dread-lock rhasta

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 la,

With my crew from lock high

I refugee from Guantanamo Bay

Dance around the border like I'm Cassius Clay

Chorus

Lauryn) REPEAT 3X:]

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
