If I Could Teach the World (A cappella) - Bone-Thugs-N-Harmony

[Krayzie | Bizzy]:

Why do I stay high, why do I stay high (high high high)

Why do I stay high, why do I stay high (high high)

[Why do I stay high], why do I stay high (high high high)

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 thugster 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 thugster just like me (like me)

[Krayzie]:

How many more day's on this old earth, can you see it's a crime to me

So we should get ready for Armageddon, 'cause I know God should be

Ready to roll, and do away with the wickedest shit like Mr. Policeman

And dog if you with it then pump up your fist in the air and pray for the politicians freely

Get an amen, the last days of the last days

[Bizzy]:

An' that's why I get high

An' that's why I get high

I'm holdin' on to my soul, but nobody knows and when it all unfolds

And then when I go, go, remember the days 'cause all that I get I get on my own with Bone

Bone, Bone, muggin', thuggin' through your door

Hoes speakin' of the last day, it's on when I'm past at trail, but what do you know

But I can't go wrong when I kick it with my song and turn it up

'Cause you love that thuggish, ruggish, bone, bone, bone

Crossroads, wanna rule the world, no I don't 'cause too many of us lost those

Who meant so much, why wasn't I chose

But it will not stop Bone, those shots don't drop Bone

No-ooh, oh, no

And if I could teach the world to be a thug like me

Then they probably be thuggin' in heaven eternally

[Layzie]:

Every day the world goes round and round, I see it's a small world after all

'Cause I go meet and I greet with my fans, smoke a little weed and have a little laugh with y'all

But every now and then, I gets caught up in a playa hation

Lord, whats wrong with this nation, erase 'em

But if I could 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 a story

A warrior, Wasteland Warrior so true

Divine, it's mine, East 1999

Is where your findin' all of my kind, every time

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 thugster 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 thugster just like me (like me)

[Krayzie]:

(If I, if I) We stand as united, but fall if divided

My thugs is the tightest, 'cause God is our guide

But they only define us, as killers and fighters

The critics and writers, backstab when they typin' our story

The war to be warrior that's for sure

And as thugs, we more more more

[Wish]:

I got, we got, to much shit to give, got shit to give

Especially, but still understood by older folk, and little kids

Common, all o' 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 hatas out to kill Wish, wanna hurt this

But uh-uh, I got true Mo Thug niggaz you just can't fuck with

Artillery you just can come with, nigga better let it rest, shit

To the little boys and girls all over the world

This shit that we say is for the streets, not for you go and do

Or to repeat, please, if we can no more murder

How must I say it, if we can no more murder

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 thugster 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 thugster just like me (like me)

[Krayzie] (Repeated to End):

Why do I stay high
