Fugees - The Mask Lyrics

FROM 1996 TO THIS DAY I'M COMIN OLD ... WAOUHHHH

2020 DAMN STILL POPINN'

Be careful of people who wearing a mask

This album is a masterpiece

Well did you shoot him? Naw kid I didn't have the balls
That's when I realized I'm pumpinnnnnn' too much Biggie Smallsz

2020!!!!!

Does anyone that sample?? There’s just a part of that song that is in another song. Can’t figure it out. It’s like that high pitched sound in this.. It’s driving me insane

“Black Skin, White Masks” is a good book by Frantz .... hidden black hand we wear the mask 🕺🏽

That bass line tho... ♥

After Lauryn's verse.... sigh, I love you Pras' and 'Clef... but dayyyyaaaammmmm Mrs. Hill!!!!

I ran into a cia informant Zoe on some j Edgar Hoover shit all the zoes turned up being informants j Edgar Hoover

Lauryn Hill is my number one best rapper of all time. The only quadruple threat: rapper, singer, actress and songwriter. Biggie, Pac, Eminem, Dre 3000, Rakim, Nas, Jay Z, Kendrick Lamar, Cannibus, rounds off my top ten.

Wyclef was prophetic. He was spot on. Obama sent FBI CIA DOJ spies to spy on then candidate Trump way back as far as 2015. Why should we be spies when Obama was spying we...? Wyclef was calling out Democrats way back in the late 90's. Hillary and the DNC colluded with the Russians to influence the outcome of 2016 and 2020. The Democrats are actively and frantically attempting to influence the outcome of the 2020 elections.

You see what you thought you saw but you never seen..

Obama put a whole bunch of spies in the FBI DOJ and the CIA. We are in the process of cleaning out these clowns, including Batmans Bill Clinton Mob Family

The Deep State are spying on we

"Everybody wear the Mask but how long will it last"

Have you ever worn the mask one-two one-two
M to the A to the S to the K
Put the mask upon the face just to make the next day
Feds be hawkin me
Jokers be stalking me
I walk the streets and camouflage my identity
My posse in the Brooklyn wear the mask
My crew in the Jersey wear the mask
Stick up kids doing boogie woogie wear the mask
Yeah everybody wear the mask but how long will it last

I used to work at Burger King. A king taking orders
Punching my clock. Now I'm wanted by the manager
Soupin me up sayin "You're a good worker, "
"How would you like a quarter raise, move up the register"
"Large in charge, but cha gotta be my spy
Come back and tell me who's baggin my fries
Getting high on company time."
Hell no sirree, wrong M.C
Why should I be a spy, when you spying me
And you see whatcha thought ya saw but never seen
Ya missed ya last move, Checkmate! Crown me King
Pulled my 22 pistol whipped him in his face
Hired now I'm fired, sold bud now I'm wired
Eyes pitch red but da beat bop my head
Hit the streets for relief, I bumped into the Feds
I got kidnapped they took me to D.C.
Have me working underground building missiles for World War III

M to the A to the S to the K
Put the mask up on the face just to make the next day
Brothers be gaming, Ladies be claiming
I walk the streets and camouflage my identity
My posse Uptown wear the mask
My crew in the Queens wear the mask
Stick up kids with the Tommy Hil wear the mask
Yeah everbody wear the mask but how long will it last

I thought he was the wonder, and I was stunned by his lips
Taking sips of an Amaretto sour with a twist
Shook my hips to the bass line, this joker grabbed my waistline
Putting pressure on my spine trying to get L-Boog to wind
I backed up off him then caught him with five finger to his face
I had to put him in his place
This kids invading my space
But then I recognized the smile, but I couldn't place the style
So many fronts in his mouth, I thought he was the Golden Child
Then it hit me that's Tariq from off the street around my Grams
I haven't seeen him since fifteen, when he got booked for doing scams
I tried to walk away but he wouldn't let me leave
He ran up quick behind me asking, "Yo what happened to my nigga Steve?"
Steve was like this kid I went with back in Grammar School
I chuckled knucklehead I seen him yesterday he's cool
He's busted, "so who you checking for now?"
Probably some intellectual
I kept the conversation straight and he kept trying to make it sexual
Then his old lady tried to play me waved her hands up in my face
Yo I told her check your man cause Bitch you acting out of place

M to the A to the S to the K
Put the mask upon me face just to make the next day
Brothers be frontin', then they be runnin'
I walk the street and camouflage my identity
My posse in the Bronx wear the mask
My crew on the Isle wear the mask
Stick up kids rollin' in the Omni wear the mask
Yeah everbody wear the mask but how long will it last?

3 A.M. in the morning on the Boulevard
I'm still at large engaged with my entourage
Me and Godfather and a 67 Dodge
I stepped out the note to post up my guard
Searching for my car that was stolen from Scotland Yard
My first instinct was to check the chop shop garage
As I rung the bell someone tapped me on my back
I turned around to look it was a rookie in a mask
He said, "I got a itchin' on my trigger
Don't move nigga I'm taking you for murder."
See cops got two faces like two laces on my Reeboks
My knees knock as I step back for a clearer shot
Well did you shoot him? Naw kid I didn't have the balls
That's when I realized I'm pumpin' too much Biggie Smalls

M to the A to the S to the K
Put the mask pon me face just to make the next day
Brothers be beefin', cops be thiefin'
Brothers be schemin', and should be teamin'
Jokers be smokin', and staying broke n
Bitches be teasin', and money skeezin'
Niggas be creapin', baby mothers be weepin'
I walk the streets and camouflage my identity
My posse in the Haiti wear the mask
My crew in Jamaica wear the mask
Stick up kids bumping Fugee-La wear the mask
Yeah everybody wear the mask but how long will it last?

2019 and there's still not a female rapper than can come close to Lauren Hill!!

Definitely UNDERRATED.

The Fugees were the trifecta of awesome.

🙄😒

Top 5 album
Fer sher

Still playing this track in 2019!!! The Score was the best Fugees Album!!!!!!

Wyclef was totally prophetic he's singing about the current Democratic party the DNC they thought they saw something but we guess they never saw it why should they be the spies when they're spying we

Hell no-sir-ee. Wrong M.C.. Why should I be a spy, when you’re spying me?

Hell no DNC why should you be a spy when you're spying we

Why should James Comey be a spy when he tried to spy US? SpyGate

temaiken

Why should Comey be a spy when they are spying We?

Black Americans, after the stunt Ted Lieu tried to pull on black women, get out your Fugees "The Score" and listen to the opening and listen to the "Mask." Wyclef predicted FBI DOJ abuses. But not against black people like in the past. Now it's against white people. Are the Democrats really helping out Black Americans? How is it going down there in Skid Row? Did Gavin visit Skid Row to examine the cause of Black Homelessness? As well as a whole bunch of homeless Americans? Where is their free healthcare, free housing, free education, free everything?

Jesse Smollet can pay a fine to cover for the crime he committed and then became the victim of his own crime. No money can repair the divide between races he helped continue to create. His racial division will never be repaired. What has been done has been done. There is no turning back. Amass munitions and supplies. Help protect American families from Democratic fascists.

So I'm a rookie if I don't listen to all your songs? What a poor bitter violent person you are. Seriously, are you the poorest rapper alive?

Dont Be Negative you're being negative

They're giving me a rogers to be put on envega

Lauren hill is the best female rapper hands down.

Jarrel Ely Lauryn Hill was easily better than Kim or Foxy lyrically. Neither were on her level.

@Jarrel Ely or Roxanne shante

Lauryn topped them all at the time I say. Her lyrical content was complex and had depth. The other ladies were just MC's not lyricist.

peelout FACTS!!!
