IF I COULD TEACH THE WORLD
Bone Thugs-N-Harmony

Krayzie:
Why do I stay high?...
with Bizzy:
Why do I stay high?...

Krayzie:
If I could teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thug in harmony, harmony
Then I would teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thugsta just like me, like me
If I could teach the world, (whole wide world]
To be a thug in harmony, harmony
Then I would teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thugsta just like me, like me

Krayzie:
How many more days on this old earth
Can you see?  
It's blind to me
So we should get ready for Armageddon
'Cause I know God should be ready to roll
Do away with the wickedest shit like Mr. Policeman
And, dog, if you with it
Then pump up your fist in the air
Then pray for the politicians freely
Get an amen, the last days of the last day, day, day.

Bizzy:
That's why I get high.  That's why I get high
I'm holdin' on to my soul
But nobody knows when it all unfolds
And then when I go, I go
Remember the dead, 'cause all that I got
I got all on my own with Bone, Bone, 
Bone, muggin' thuggin' through your door
Hoes speakin' of the last and the time when I'm passed
And Charlie wanna hear ya Bone
But I can't go wrong
I'm a flip it with my song, better turn it on
'Cause you love that thuggish ruggish Bone Bone Bone Bone
Crossroads, what a real cruel world
Now I doubt the journey of us lost souls
Who meant so much
Why wasn't I chose?  But He will not stop clones whose shots
Don't drop Bone, no oh, oh, oh, 
And if I could teach the world to be a thug like me
Then they probably be thuggin' in heaven eternally yeah.

Layzie:
Everyday the world goes round and round
I see it's a small world after all, 
'Cause I can go meet, and I greet with my fans
Smoke a little weed and have a little laugh with ya'll
But every now and then, I get caught up in the playa hation
Lord, what's wrong with this nation?  
Erase 'em
But if I could to teach the world 
To be a thug just like me
You could live your lifestyle worry-free 
In the arms of the Lord eternally
No mystery, but check the essence of the story:  
A warrior, wasteland warrior so true
Divine--it's mine, East 1999
It's where you're findin' all of my kind everytime.

Krayzie:
If I could teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thug in harmony, harmony
Then I would teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thugsta just like me, like me
If I could teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thug in harmony, harmony
Then I would teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thugsta just like me, like me

Krayzie:
We stand as united, but fall if divided
My thug is the tightest, 'cause God is our guide
And they only define us as killas and fighters
The critics and writers backstab when typin' our story
The war to be warrior, that's for sure
And as thugs we're more and more and more and more

Wish:
I got, we got too much shit to give
Got shit to give, especially
But still understood by the older folks and little kids
Come on, all a y'all, follow me
Bone, way to go, we know the way to go
Follow me, follow me, Bone, and that's why I stay high
'Cause I got shit to deal with--the  government 
And these playa haters out to kill Wish,
Wanna hurt this, but, uh uh,
I got true Mo Thug niggas you just can't fuck with
Artillery you can't come with
Nigga, better let it rest, shit
To the little boys and girls all over the world
This shit that we say's for the streets--
Not for you to go and do or to repeat
Please, if we can, no more murder amongst ourselves
If we can, no more murder

Krayzie:
If I could teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thug in harmony, harmony
Then I would teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thugsta just like me, like me
If I could teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thug in harmony, harmony
Then I would teach the world, (whole wide world)
To be a thugsta just like me, like me

with Bizzy:
Why do I stay high?...Why do I stay high?...Why do I stay high?...
