Boy I am so tired
I’ll be glad when I get inside the house
Oh, I dropped my keys
Oh what tis bright light?
My God they must gonna rob me
Who these people with them all at they gonna rob me
I’m gonna take out my wallet to make sure they just get the money
Nothing else.. (? ? )
Oh it’s the police (*whew*)
I feel so much better
I will show them, I have my id
So they know I am good people

{*followed by a rapid flurry of gunshots*}

[wyclef jean]
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I fear no evil for thou art with me thou ride with me
J-j-jah! ras-tafari
I can’t forget you knotty dreads, y’all up in here
I gotta respect that, youknowhati’msayin?
Night is in the air

Enemy.. on the borderline
Who’ll be the next to fire
Forty-one shots by diallo’s side?

You said he reached sir
But he didn’t have no piece sir
But now he rest in peace sir
In the belly of the beast sir

You guys are vampires
In the middle of the night
Suckin on human blood
Is that your appetite?

You said he reached sir
But he didn’t have no piece sir
But now he rest in peace sir
In the belly of the beast sir

Have you ever been shot
Forty-one times?
Have you ever screamed
And no one heard you cry?
Have you ever died
Only so you can live?
Have you ever lived
Only so you can die again, then be born again
From these enemies, on the borderline
Who’ll be the next to fire
Forty-one shots by diallo’s side?

You said he reached sir
But he didn’t have no piece sir
But now he rest in peace sir
In the belly of the beast sir

You guys are vampires
In the middle of the night
Suckin on human blood
Is that your appetite sir?

You said he reached sir
But he didn’t have no piece sir
But now he rest in peace sir
In the belly of the beast sir

Diallo, diallo - similar to steven biko
Diallo, diallo - you told me the murder was an error
Diallo, diallo - but every man will be judged
Diallo, diallo - according to his words

Have you ever been held
Against your will?
Taken to a dark place
Where not even scientists can reveal?
So what is for ceasar
Let it be for ceasar
Cause we don’t want no peace
We want equal rights and justice.. for

Diallo, diallo - similar to steven biko
Diallo, diallo - you tell me that the murder was an error
Diallo, diallo - but every man will be judged
Diallo, diallo - according to his words

You know what?
You told me - that I wouldn’t understand man
Tonight some cry - in the streets a burial
Survival of the fittest - only the strong will survive
How can I survive - with forty-one shots by my side?

You guys are murderers
In the middle of the night
Killin innocent people
Is that your appetite? ohhh

You said he reached sir
But he didn’t have no piece sir
But now he rest in peace sir
In the belly of the beast sir

You guys are vampires
In the middle of the night
Suckin on human blood
Is that your appetite?

You said he reached sir
But he didn’t have no piece sir
But now he rest in peace sir
In the belly of the beast sir - lick a shot for

Diallo, diallo - similar to steven biko
Diallo, diallo - I can hear your spirit callin, I can hear it
Diallo, diallo - ten thousand chariots with no riders
Diallo, diallo - they on they way to america, I hear the tribe singin

They’re sayin -
Diallo diallo, amadou diallo (14x)
Amadou diallo..

[samples]
Now there ain’t but 20,000 police in the whole town
Can you dig it? can you dig it? can you dig it? !? !

"The Beast"

[CHORUS:]
Warn the town the beast is loose,
Word 'em up y'all
C'mon

[LAURYN:]
Conflicts with night sticks
Illegal sales districts,
Hand-picked lunatics, keep poli-TRICK-cians rich
Heretics push narcotics amidst its risks and frisks,
Cool cliques throw bricks but seldom hit targets
Private-DIC sell hits, like porno-flicks do chicks.
The 666 cut W.I.C. like Newt Gingrich SUCKS ****

[CLEF:]
Meanwhile the government brings Star Wars from glocks to glockers
C.O.P. has an APB out on Chewbacca
Mista Mayor, can I say something in yo honor
Yesterday in Central Park they got the Jogger
Okay, okay.
Let's get the confusion straight in ghetto Gotham
The man behind the mask you thought was Batman is Bill Clinton.
Who'll soon retire, the roof is on fire
Connie Chung brung the bomb as it comes from Oklahoma
Things are getting serious, Kuumbaya,
On a mountain satan offered me Manhattan,help me Jah Jah

[CLEF:]
You can't search me without probable cause
Or that proper ammunition they call reasonable suspicion
Listen I bring friction to your whole jurisdiction
You planted seeds in my seat when I wasn't lookin.
Now you ask me for my license/registration
"WHAT THE ****" is my name
"WHAT THE ****" is my occupation
Well I'm an MC, I'm down with the Fugees
Mother Mary caught a flashback like Rodney now the cops got Lolly.

[LAURYN:]
The subconscious psychology that you use against me,
If I lose control will send me to the penetentiary
Such as Alcatraz, or shot up like al Hajj Malik Shabazz
High class get bypassed while my @55 gets harrassed.
And the fuzz treat bruh's like they manhood never was,
And if you too powerful, you get bugged like Peter Tosh and Marley was.
And my word does nothing against the feds,
So my eyes stay red as I chase crazy bald heads, WORD UP.

[CHORUS:]
Warn the town the beast is loose, Ah - ah, Ah - ah
Word 'em up y'all

[CLEF:]
The chase is on I feel like the bad guy
Fifth gear 125 like New Jersey driver
Looked in my rear view mirror
Police was getting closer
Heard a roar in the sky,
Looked up and saw the Blue Thunder.
My inner conscious says throw your handkerchief and surrender,
BUT TO WHO???

The star spangled banner
ooh, Say can't you see cops more crooked than we
By the dawn's early night robbin' n!&&as for ki's.
Easy low key crooked military
Pay taxes out my @55 but they still harrass me.

[PRAZ:]
The streets of corruption got me bustin and cussin' in the concrete jungle
Thoughts being dribbled like that tall kid Mutumbo
Handled by Hannibal
Soon I'm gonna be a fugitive like Dr. Kimble.

[CLEF:] Hey yo should I slow down?

[PRAZ:]
Nah kid go faster,
Just cause they got a badge, they could still be impostors.
Probable cause, got flaws like dirty drawers
Meet me at the corner store so we can start the street wars.

[CHORUS:]
Warn the town the beast is loose, Ah - ah, Ah - ah,
Word 'em up y'all

i cant sleep at night
thoughts of the beast comin to get me...
project feds , refugee camp

watch out for gestapo
