featuring The Force MD's



Intro: The Force MD's



Whoaahhhoahhh oahhhohhhhh

It's been a long long

A long time coming

A change gon' come



Verse One: Ghostface



Yo yo these streets got me backed down how can I escape?

How can I survive without bubblin weight?

It's prepared for the stand off once you hand off

that white rock and then give birth to a knot

Your biggest dream was to rock your 850 and beam

You and the Gods buy a crib in the white part of Queens

But at the same time, niggaz on the block is ill

Some'll rock you to sleep, hap, for selling cross pills

Being watched all day like enemy's prey

Faces, you never seen before is in your hallway

Brothers you knew for years is mad pussy and scared

Back in the days U.F.O.'s couldn't walk up in here

It's time to motor, travel like a foul order

Clear my head, stay sober, the soul controller



Chorus: The Force MD's



Oahhhh, it's been a long, long

A long time coming

A change gon' come

Oh, yes it will

Said I'm too, tired of livin

But I'm, but I'm afraid to die

Cause I don't know what's up there

In that great big ol' sky



Verse Two: Ghostface



Sink deep into the fog, big buffalo large

Taj Mahal just got banged, shanked for eighty dollars

It's hard to keep up, with these key-ons, that smoke dust

In the U.S. Mint they want to rock the place and call the rush

All these shameless niggaz armed with cherry-red Bally's

On the twenty-fifth, everybody rich is gettin married

Killed for power beans, your brother own schools in Medina

Vaseline lips is cracked cause they all had dreams

They overdue, these Gods own a mosque in Peru

Tropical trees and weaves where they grew bamboo

Olympic minds quick flash like a leak on

A hundred shares short to own Nissan, watch em get they feast on

Royal blue lies inside the eyes of heaven

Curse the head, who speak foul and jinx number seven (seven)

Clear my head and stay sober, the soul controller...

(Stay sober, the soul controller)



Chorus: The Force MD's



Oahhh, been a long time comin

Oh yeah

A change gon' come

Woooaahh, yes it will



Verse Three: Ghostface



Yo, yo we sit and play the wall like nine super heroes

Late for the man choose and hit socks and stereos

The kid's nice, warnin you twice, run your garmets

Jet to Providence, switch up and back down your Parliament

Ironman is laced with a plate inside the dome piece

Go off in airports, biographies, prophecies

Watch me set it, real key-ons hold down the desert

And walk with a famous name like Supreme Magnetic

Carbon copy, I love my car, it's near choppy

Melachi off the funky pain with the wax poppy on instrumentals

Niggaz get lost like S.S. Minnows

Turned out like rentals, keep gold around the denim



Outro Part One: The Force MD's



A change gon come

Yes it will

It's been a long, long

A long time coming

A change gon come

Wooo, yes it will

Said I'm so

Tired of living

But I'm, but I'm afraid to die

Cause I don't know what's up there

In that great, big ol sky

Oh my, oh my, oh my

It's been a long, long time

A long time coming

Change gonna come

Wooo, yes it will



Outro Part Two: [from the motion picture "Carlito's Way"]



Sorry boys,

All the stitches in the world can't sew me together again

Lay down, lay down

Gonna stretch me out in Fernandez funeral home on hun and ninth street

Always knew I'd make a stop there

But a lot later than a whole gang of people thought

Last of the Mohicans

Well, maybe not the last

Can't come with me on this trip, Loaf

Gettin the shakes now

Last call for drinks

Bar's closin down

Sun's out

Where we goin for breakfast?

Don't wanna go far

Rough night

Tired, baby

Tired...



Outro Part Three: [from the motion picture "The Usual Suspects"]



Greatest trick the devil ever pulled

Was convincing the world he didn't exist

And like that, he's gone
