Fugees - Take It Easy Lyrics






[Lauryn:]
Brethren dont cut me when I'm going.
I dont hear myself.
We bout to drop, drop drop drop.
You can bring the beat up a little bit in the headphones.
Bring the beat up a little bit.
We bout to drop.
We bout to drop, drop, drop, drop.

[L-Boogie:]
I got moxy, I'm so d**n foxy
Industry try to block me like cops and paparazzi
Full stop, Don't copy, Just cop me properly
Everybody same policy, universal equality
Responsibility, polity, to survive economically
Some people do it comically, Fruits of freedom, equality
Invest your money properly, people own me apology
Intellectual property, stealing stolen commodity
Souls searching or controlling and robbery, Cold lack of comradere
Clones, Copy-cats bother me, Mine, Own, Blind cats, follow me
Honesty, honesty, honestly, all these jokes are common-league
Puppets with no autonomy
Yup Its Fugees Entirely

[Chorus]
I see you looking but you better take it easy
Tell your crew I said tell em take it easy
Here's come the rocket launcher, you better take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
[Lauryn:] too sleazy
Too much ex mami, take it easy
Good with the sex mami, you'll be like, take it easy
Ay papi, better take it easy, take is easy, take it easy

[Clef:]
You movin bricks but you better take it easy
Here's a tip, you're too flashy
I don't tip twice, but you best friend he DT
And that dog sniffin in the back ain't Lassie
And I ain't rhymed in a minute, but ya'll ain't catch up
And that ain't blood on your shirt, man that's ketchup (That's ketchup)
Picture Clef getting a writer to give him help
I'd rather kill myself become a ghost and write for myself (OH MY GOD!!)(***see C)
Cuss I'm the top celebrity, top celebrity, top celebrity, MC (Bing!)
I flow for the thugs, gypsies, and hippies (Bing!)
A ghetto maestro with a Nat Turner flow (Bing!)
Malcolm X come out, hit the Klu Kulx Show (SHOOWOOWOO)

[Chorus]
I see you looking but you better take it easy
Tell your goons that they better take it easy
Here's come the rocket launcher, take it easy, take it easy, you better take it easy
[Lauryn:] too sleazy
Too much ex mami, take it easy
Good with the sex you'll be like take it easy
Ay papi, mami take it easy, take is easy, you better take it easy

[L-Boogie:]
Don't you know
originals get plagerized, majors minors, must supervise
Haters, Climbers get scrutinized, Placaters, Blind and stupid guys
Wicked people choose homicide, Dregs of society heathen dem
Beggars, bogus misleading dem, Nigra, Negro, Negrito dem
Angelitos con libre dem, Chico's, Chica's completing them
Addiction, fiction, bleeding them, capitalism eating them,
Misunderstanding cheatin them, The ignorance defeating them
True loyalty is leaving them, got royalty believing them
Eyes open deceiving them, Reconciling, Receiving them
Reckless driving and grieving them, Matthew Andrew and Peter them
(Slow down)
We bout to reconcile [repeat]
We bout to reconcile (reconcile)
We bout to reconcile (recon, recon, reconcile)
We bout to reconcile, (tell em to give off my style) (Slow Down)
We bout to reconcile (reconcile like Public Enemy)
We bout to reconcile (Slow Down) (reconciliation) (tell em to get off my style)
We bout to reconcile (running with my crew again)
We bout to reconcile (Slow Down) (tell them to get my off style) [repeat]

[Pras:]
Stop the track, what ya'll thought I wasn't coming
been in the L.A., few flicks, few millions
back with the Fugees, foo-fighting for a few billions
dub plate dealing, sound boy killin
anything we do, we want that cap for me realin?
Angelo, Simone, Michelle, you know them willin,
Can't fight the feelin, when I pull in the SFR,
every girl love's a ghetto superstar (that's Pras baby)
Run hip hop like pin stripe Lees and
I got love for my crew like Big had for Cease (C's)
Pull and sqeeze on these MC's,
I don't really wanna do it, take it easy

I see you looking but you better take it easy
Tell your goons that they better take it easy
Here's come the rocket launcher, take it easy,
take it easy, you better take it easy
[Lauryn:] too sleazy
Too much ex mami, take it easy
Good with the sex you'll be like take it easy
Ay papi, mami take it easy, take is easy, you better take it easy

We got L-Boogie in the house
[Lauryn:] what
Prazwell in the house,
Clef,
Jerry Wonder, yeah

Big Ro (Rohan) I see you in the back
Let's get this thing started
Let's stay focused, focused, focused, focused

Oh, If you don't know what's goin on man
The Fugees back on the street, serious thing right now
You scared yet, ah pack your dibby dibby dub box

    A.... d....

    uhh no. Eminem got his style from Blacks (just like how he spells his name), Masta Ace and Redman are two. This is simply Lauryn...

  10. G.... L....

    Pure vintage 🔥

  11. A.... B....

    Wreckles driving we leaving dem😭😭

  12. f.... J....

    The break did Pas some good. His lyrics were better than they use to be. I have never cared for Wyclefs vocals. But Lauryn could have just gave me a sweet 16 and a different hook and I'm good. Hope they get some burn jut off respect.

  13. 0.... 1....

    this was fire. i loooove the beat

  14. E.... 1....

    No voice competes with Lauryn Hill's..

  15. p.... m....

    The Beatles of rap..Two talented writers whose egos tore the group apart; As famous for their breakup as their music; made great music while they were together. Classic music.

  16. J.... L....

    Lol this is just like Still Ballin´ from Tupac´s song, at the rythm, at the intro I mean. The rest of this song is genuine of course and Lauryn Hill is DOPE on this one.

  17. R.... ....

    this song is Absolute FIRE. All the Fugees bring it so hard. What the F*** are people smoking when they say this isn't Fugees at their finest? I wanna slap some f00ls. This is straight illness.

  18. W.... C....

    When I heard this, God knows how I felt cause I thought the Fugees were coming back, damn, I still miss them.

  19. R.... ....

    The beat is fire but it wasn't meant for them. It doesn't even sound like they really know what to do with it. Good track, but not 'Fugees' good

  20. M.... B....

    Thank you <3

  21. s.... f....

    fugee lost file. Lauryn is the best

  22. I.... ....

    that ghost line was crazy

  23. C.... A....

    love Lauryn forever

  24. C.... R....

    Lauryn always on point. That beat sucks though

  25. P.... ....

    Treasure that calms the mind. Damn she always kills it. Rap_it_easy.

  26. G.... L....

    🔥🔥🔥🔥

  27. S.... V....

    Lauryn got some serious ad-libs on here lol

    S.... V....

    Surgeon Vault her adlibs was too much. It spoilt the song

  28. v.... m....

    Lauryn is fantastic, Pras rapping is so lame compared to hers

    v.... m....

    veronica mz pras had a good verse. I didnt see any big difference

  29. W.... F....

    I downloaded this song back in the day and edited out wyclef's & pras' verses.

  30. V.... D....

    This is so HARD, Damn

  31. T.... C....

    Lauryn killed Pras and Wyclef on this track. They outgrew each other. No one is crazy, they ran their course with amazing music.

    T.... C....

    +Pernell Butler still love this song regardless

    T.... C....

    Ummm it didn't fail that bad. It was in a big commercial

    T.... C....

    tonycarr 1968 muurrrrrrrrrrrdered it

    T.... C....

    @P C B True but Lauryn's lyricism is uncompromised.

    T.... C....

    I love Lauryn, but it can't be denied that she had a period in life where she went through a weird phase and has shown some very unruly/unpredictable behaviour. I wouldn't call it crazy... in the words of Dave Chappelle: calling somebody crazy is dismissive, "I don't understand this person so they must be crazy", these are strong people, maybe their environment is a little sick. But this behaviour came years after Fugees broke up, the reason why they broke up is known... that was between Lauryn and Wyclef having problems, which Wyclef recently has explained in some detail.

  32. Z.... B....

    so this was done in 2004/2005.
    So they were using the dance hall beats in a mainstream song in 2005. And dance hall beats blows up becomes mainstream in 2014, and every hip home/pop song is using it

  33. S.... S....

    Mixed by the big DJ QUIK

  34. C.... N....

    This beat is straight ill.

  35. R.... D....

    Talent it easy

  36. W.... C....

    I don't know about you guys, it's still hurting me that the Fugees break up, it is actually affecting me, well as far as music wise. I really miss them. Lauryn will always be my baby

    W.... C....

    It hurts me too. Whenever I listen to one of their tracks I feel more & more how sad their break up makes me... such a solid band.

  37. K.... G....

     HIP HOP 101. IN CASE U DIDNT KNOW. AUTHENTICITY. LYRICALLY GORGEOUS. I AM SMILING RIGHT NOW. THANK U. THIS IS SO RIDICULOUS!!!! NO ALBUM FOR THIS BUT I WILL TAKE WHATEVER IS GIVEN.

  38. Y.... M....

    Ya, cuando tiene la casa limpia puede dedicarse a esa seudomúsica para flipados

  39. N.... ....

    i woulda been so on this ablum if it was released. its a shame.

  40. W.... W....

    Lauryn is a beast...

    W.... W....

    Bodies this!

  41. k.... w....

    all the way

  42. M.... B....

    its that new era of hip hop listeners brotha.. its a shame what people consider rap now a days.

  43. a.... ....

    she's always sick!! best women rapper ever!

  44. K.... ....

    looooovvvve this, dang lauryn hill you're amazing.

  45. u.... ....

    Hmm. This sounds dated. More dated than 'The Score' or 'Blunted.' It's trying to cop the style of the southern-style rap that was popular in the early-mid naughts

  46. a.... ....

    *what people think about her*

    a.... ....

    Best female rapper

  47. a.... ....

    I agree with shitjitsu but she was kind of right when she said when they think your crazy they leave you alone but i dont think she's crazy though i think she's misunderstood and she really doesnt care what you think about her

  48. S.... ....

    i think you have mental issues and i dont even know you....get what i,m saying..you dont know lauren hill..you only know what the media wants you to know..and thats what you base your judgement apon......pfffffft

  49. S.... ....

    she is crazy...crazy skills crazy hot crazy lyricist.....yep she is crazy

  50. S.... S....

    IT'S SAD THEY MADE A COMEBACK SONG, AND NEVER REALLY CAME BACK!!!!

  51. i.... ....

    She might or might not. It's also possible she just couldn't handle finding out certain things about the industry, the pressure of being the leading lady in hip hop at the time, balancing work/family/faith, the whole Wyclef/Rohan thing... to me, she just sounds like she was hurt and is now pretty serious about sharing a certain message. I understand how people can find that quite erratic though.

    i.... ....

    inasexymood yes I got you !!!

  52. i.... ....

    Don't use the word 'crazy' though. Some people actually have serious mental illnesses.

  53. h.... ....

    PLEASE LAURYN COME BACK!

  54. p.... ....

    They call her crazy because she actually has something to say about something, unlike all the other rappers out there they rap about stupid shit.

  55. E.... L....

    Lauryn is not crazy. she spoke out against the world and nobody wants to hear that so they had to say something..

    E.... L....

    @Edward Lohr ☝🏾👀Major facts! 💯💯

  56. t.... ....

    lauryn Hill > Nicki Minaj

  57. j.... ....

  60. A.... B....

    I never knew that these guys did this. Man Fugees I admire everything about you. Lauryn what's with the flow? I can't believe she is this ill

  61. s.... ....

    @haiten7448 "Take It Easy," is a 2005 unreleased song from The Fugees brief reunion. Because the reunion wasn't successful, they never completed a 3rd album.

  62. H.... c....

    Real hip hop is in the building.

  63. s.... ....
