However You Want It Lyrics - The Ecleftic: 2 Sides Ii A Book - Wyclef Jean

HOOK: 

However you want it, you don't want it, cuz when you get it it hurts 

Your body carried out the church 

Mom, she be cryin holdin on to her purse sayin... (oh my baby!) 

They shoulda took me first 

However you want it, you don't want it, cuz when you get it it hurts 

Your body carried out the church 

Mom, she be cryin holdin on to her purse sayin... (oh...) 

(Verse 1) 

Aiyyo 

What y'all thought I was too busy writin songs with Whitney Houston 

Cuz *My Love's your Love* will be my slugs wit blood 

For any thug that wanna bang and play orangutang 

Find yourself in the river with the rest of them 

Wake up, wake up, I'm in a nightmare dream 

Where I found myself loadin magazines after magazines 

Ski mask on my face, gun on my waist 

Fine pens shakin in my hand as I write this next line 

You look strange, shootin victims at close range 

And saw his vein burst from his neck, as I snatched his chain 

Is this a Bible, I used to read the Gospel 

Until I got betrayed by one of my twelve disciples 

Which one, look through the crowd son 

You could spot the traitor wit a tatto on his arm 

The symbol is a microphone, an intellectual 

A wannabe Rakim, but too extraterrestrial 

I heard he's lethal and I'm too rusty to battle him 

Me being rusty is like Biggie not being *Born Again* 

It never happen, watch who you call fam 

On MTV, he painted himself as the tin man 

Predicted platinum, way before it happened 

So that's why when you ship gold, you only sold aluminum

HOOK 

(Verse 2) 

You a thug? You aint a murderer, just an undercover caligula 

Cuz when you saw the luger became silent like Caesar 

Enough of this rap stuff, Sedeck take his watch 

If I wasn't rappin, I'd take that stash in your left socks 

Don't make me raise my voice cuz I'm masterin a coo 

So, and besides when they find you you'll be bones 

Mom say watch my peers, hangin like chandeliers 

Orderin Don P, you couldn't pay for one beer 

Perpetratin, a fraud, oh god, you aint hard 

Take thirty of y'all to murder one kid on the boulevard 

You want Wyclef Jean, bring your same thug guys 

Here's my advice, leave the ring with your bride 

Cuz you aint comin back no more 

We gon send you to a vacation for two, with crabs on the seashore 

You freeze up, hold up I really thought you was psychotic 

Is that tears in your eyes? You cryin for your life 

Kid you tellin me what you did, you didn't wanna do 

Watch what you say on record cuz it might come true

Outro: 

Should I take them? Should I wait? 

Should I take them? Should I wait? 

Should I take them? Should I wait? 

I say *No Woman, No Cry* like I should own a piece of the estate 

But at the tribute they didn't invite me 

So I put in a call to Halis Alassi 

He said be easy, aint no need to bust a shot (BLOW! BLOW! BLOW! BLOW!) 

Like Supercat said, yo the ghetto's red hot 

Before bling, bling, bling it was BLING, BLING, BLING!
