How Hard Is It? lyrics - Fugees

[Mad Spider]

Wait a second, draw back, ban this here I come

Stick this business, stock me up, they took me coat with a stun gun

On a Sunday, a bloody Sunday, so what's the resume?

Heads got felt in the force I heard a Milky Way

I caught a heart attack when I heard my cousin ??

In Avenue D. in Brooklyn New York City

ever since I used my man I moved to Jersey

But realistically, God, could of called me early

Cause I got a big bop I'm wanted by the block

I take a ruff-neck chicken make stop in stone top

Cause I roll with the army of sixty-eight

The Privates' don't make the orders it's the General that makes the wig-wack

Buy her back, buy a cat, I got scratched in a day to kidnap

and at night I was back and the Jeep got attacked by a gang that sold crack

But the posse was strapped it was nothin' but CRAP!!

I got cuffed in the back, in the jail there were rats

So I pulled out my mack to get out of this crap

Though I wish I could zap outta here but I quack like a dog

that pass gats so I put the gas mask on the mic

there were blasts cause I do it it's my task

And all the jumper the guys that I see to me pass the class

Check out the vocab, it'll get out, then get it, do it again

gift of the guy if you're good you're good, if you're bad you're bad

[Chorus: Wyclef Jean]

So how hard is it? (Hard as it can get)

I wanna know, how hard do you wanna it? (Hard as it can get)

[Pras]

One, two (ONE, TWO), three, four (THREE, FOUR)

Hardcore (HARDCORE), hardcore (HARDCORE)

Yo, watch yourself for your health I'll snatch your last breath

Then I left you up for another one bites the dust

You couldn't ride me if you went behind the bush, gush

Leave the style alone, don't try to follow me

Cause a life of the hood make it a little triggery

So keep your eyes on the prize, don't be surprised

Cause on my half I may pull out a semi-automatic sixty-eight

watch around my back it's mainly static

Droppin' emcees like a bad habit

Here come the Pras with a new package

[Wyclef Jean]

Mad and they ignorance, think they can test the performance of an ancient (RAPPER!!)

Let me break it down in a dialect (BADDER!!)

Easier said than what the mono said

cause there's more than righter rapper, paid for the rapper be-bop

Cause he said everybody's rappin', them and they momma

So when I grab the mic I grab it like a gangster

Microphone sniper cause it'll be the prowler

[Mad Spider]

Launch it, it's trife, no magic, the realistic maggot

Don't leave the gadget or you'll be gat it

Simple - the riddle, who's the monkey in the middle

What's the goose - um!

So let me cut his neck loose yo

I keep it positive and not so negative

These is when you diss, emcees take it

So send it to they call the battle

I'ma raw I let it rappin' now I'm more

your ball, you're waitin' for me to fall, but I won't, ssss...

[Chorus: Wyclef Jean]

So how hard is it? (Hard as it can get)

I wanna know, how hard do you wanna it? (Hard as it can get)

[Levi]

I gotta jump on the A-Train, I saw cat with a scat he was blowin' like coal-train

My boys' said give him a call, I gave him a dollar, he said are you a rapper?

Kids have a seat and don't miss a beat and listen to the battle of the saxin' in your emcee

[Wyclef Jean]

Now Red Rock, call Red Rock, call Red Rock, call Red Rock, call Red Rock call

(It could mean rewind the gun-check me baby)

[Lauryn Hill]

I rock and shock the dough is show squeeze and cheese and whether pleasin'

(It could mean rewind the gun-check me baby)

I rock and shock the dough is show squeeze and cheese and whether pleasin'

Coolin' breezin' at the teas and how can emcees do was sneeze

(FLOWER, BLOW!!)

[Chorus: Wyclef Jean]

So how hard is it? (Hard as it can get)

I wanna know, how hard do you wanna it? (Hard as it can get)

So how hard is it? (Hard as it can get)

I wanna know, how hard do you wanna it? (Hard as it can get)

So how hard is it? (Hard as it can get)

I wanna know, how hard do you wanna it? (Hard as it can get)

So how hard is it? (Hard as it can get)

I wanna know, how hard do you wanna it? (Hard as it can get)

So how hard is it? (Hard as it can get)

I wanna know, how hard do you wanna it? (Hard as it can get)

So how hard is it?...
