[Intro: Wyclef]. It's funny how the Earth rotates man you never know what's. going to happen ya know mean?. All I said was "Aiight I got this chiki bang bang dang da dang". Then it all got it started for me man. Yo man I'm just getting back from the tour man. What it be like man?. Yo bust it turn me up. Somebody told me if you can make in New York City man you can. make it anywhere else man. Somehow I believe that shhhh. [Chorus] (Wyclef). Oh what a night. Late December 1993 (what happened?). Who thought he would rule the industry?. What an MC on the grind. [Wyclef]. Yo I ain't always have whips I ain't always have yachts. I ain't always have chips I ain't always have rocks. Matta fact I was a grimey little negro. Who said if music didn't work I'd sell diesel. What cha'll thought I wasn't raised in the projects?. First of the month waitin for that PA check. Lived on the first floor. Were so poor that if you rung the buzzer the roaches would answer the door (who is it?). I went from boy to man in one night. When I saw my life flash like light from poltergeist. What made it worse I couldn't speak English. But from his facial expressions he wanted my Adidas. So hurry up and come out and play. I'll be damned if I leave bare-footed in this hallway. And I got big plans so beg your pardon. Cause next year this time I'ma sell out the Garden. [Chorus]. [Wyclef]. Yo yo I ain't gonna brag and boast and say I did it all. But I'm the only rapper to play Carnegie Hall. The first rap group video cost a million. First rapper to ever rep for the Haitians. And sa fa say na boolay. Grammy night we took 3 away. 22 million sold I can't believe this. There's still ain't a rapper alive who could achieve this. But I ain't satisfied when back to my home contemplating. How could I become the next Quincy Jones?. That's when Jerry hit me up on the horn and said. "Clef your on the cover of. the cover of The Source by The Rolling Stones". No more struggling good life we loving it. You could live it too if you only publish it. So here we go so what's the scenario?. I own so many cars that I'm renting 'em for videos. [Chorus]
