Manifest Lyrics - The Score - The Fugees

[WYCLEF] 

I woke up this morning 

I was feeling kind of high 

It was me, Jesus Christ and Haile Selassie 

Selassie said greetings in the name of the most high, 

Jah Rhastafari, 

Christ, took a sip of the Amaretto, 

Passed it down the table said today I'll be betrayed by one you 12 

disciples 

Give me a clue who could do this to you? 

The kid on the block who makes less money than you. 

Crooked cops pulled up, they offered him 30 pieces of silver 

All he got to do is deliver the savior 

Right on Bergen St. from bad luck to good luck 

My cup runneth over, pass it down, guzzle up 

The time has arrived, the prophecy will manifest 

I saw death, I got scared, butterflies on my chest 

Father if possible, pass this cup before me, 

But it's too late I chose my destiny in Gethsemane. 

[LAURYN] 

You see I loved hard once, but the love wasn't returned 

I found out the man I'd die for, he wasn't even concerned 

And time it turned, 

He tried to burn me like a perm 

Though my eyes saw the deception, My heart wouldn't let me learn 

From um, some, dumb woman, was I, 

And everytime he'd lie, he would cry and inside I'd die. 

My heart must have died a thousand deaths 

Compared myself to Toni Braxton thought I'd never catch my breath 

Nothing left, he stole the heart beating from my chest 

I tried to call the cops, that type of thief you can't arrest 

Pain suppressed, will lead to cardiac arrest 

Diamonds deserve diamonds, but he convinced me I was worth less 

when my peoples would protest, 

I told them mind their business, cause my s*** was complex 

More than just the sex 

I was blessed, but couldn't feel it like when I was caressed 

I'd spend nights clutching my breasts overwhelmed by God's test 

I was God's best contemplating death with a Gillette 

But no man is ever worth the paradise MANIFEST 

[PRAZ] 

Gun-clap Shell cap, 

Got them crawling on they back 

Come through with the Fu 

They be who the F**k is that 

It's unpredictable, when my tongue performs like Jujitsu 

Cut you with my lyrics, stab you with my pencil 

Lethal injection, witness protection 

Refugee camp's under investigation 

Gunshot bursts in all directions 

For the wack MC's we read your revelations 

Discharge through your pores 

Get raw and kill Boors 

I can Capleton when I'm on a Tour 

Some manifest, with slugs in they chest 

God bless all the Cowboys in the Wild Wild West
