Tryin To Stay Alive Lyrics - The Carnival - Wyclef Jean

(Wy-Clef Jean) 

We got the Refugees All-Stars rubba dubbin' in the club 

Wyclef Jean, John Forte, Prizewell. 

Nah mean the streets are gettin a little crazy. 

Looka looka looka looka looka 

looka looka looka here looka shorty got back 

should I ask her for a dance hold on theres too many in a wolf pack 

and besides Dirtycash talkin to her 

buyin' her fake furs and takin' her to the fever 

quite as his kept that ain't even his Benz 

she spends his franklins at the malls with her friends 

material girl, livin' in a material world 

but it's alright cause its Saturday night 

so mista funkmaster pump the Bee-Gees 

and all you college students bring your ouijas' 

check the spellin, R E--F U G E--E get the cd from Sam Goody he he 

You ain't even close wit the rhymes that you wrote 

Don't be mad cause you broke 

let me clear my throat ah huh ah huh 

John Forte grab the mic roots sway it this way

I more than just a rhymer you still a small timer 

hopin that the game treat that ass a little kinda 

every step tango'd

I'm eatin mangos in Trinadad wit attorneys (oh yea) 

my crews slang flow worldwide like a current 

wit da every spot where nobody get insurance 

brotha do the math you aint half near exotic 

my man's claim true - you - forget about it 

pope hoe just a new stance like my influence 

well recognize you a lie tryin do it
