Hip Hop, what is Hip Hop?
Is it the way you flow, lyrics, or what you know?
Is it your harlem shake, or dance show?
Is it gunshots? Or the cases dropped
because your a "boss"?
Or size of my banklot, 12 car garage holding inside my rides that hops ?
Driving while smoking pot
subwoofing the beat, shaking concrete
or is it my words, of Anti-LAPD?
Years of many things discrete & brutality .
Is it you? Is it me? What is an M.C?
What is, And what isn't allowed?
Like Rakim said
"mc to me means moves the crowd "
Hip Hop is someones originality,
A beat to a flow, like Og's from the Bronx
The simplest and purest form
like once before breakdancing on a cardboard box
never knowing it will take off past the "block"
from Busy bee, kool moe doe, Biz Markie, Eric B and Pac,
To now Obama shaking hands with the guy who represented the ROC
Rap can be from spitting on a song to dance
or talk about your drama, inner karma
Even a love poem about your Dear Mama
Whatever it is, it began with me as a kid
and now an adult, in which my young seeds I will teach,
so they can learn the discipline of thought
not the careless and useless for the moment
" because this is why it's hot."
Its like a friend sometimes we dont speak but not far from thoughts
Right now at the things she does I'm not glad
Because she's in a fad, shes lost her culture and being abuse
As a whore, but she's been here before
I understand why she left,
After the PAC and Biggie death (shaking my head)
She wiped her an tears left
She lost the struggle, the passion
to catchy beats, and today's fashion
Words without any shape
& rappers looking today like their fasting
Maybe one day well hear it once more
"to come at the door, like they said it before.
It's Hip Hop
