I Rap
Felt like those people were me,
I just lived across the border,
Bein we all were slaves,
The thought ain't outta order,
We all strived to do it,
I just did it well,
My subconscious always knew my future,
It just wouldn't tell,
Hip hop came with an accent and slangs,
Some put on dashiki's,
Some word hoodies and fangs,
But at the end of it all,
Represented the same thing,
So I rap,
Cause my mother told me not to sing,
I needed to speak my mind,
And rhyme was the closest thing,
I rap,
Cuz Rakim told me I'm a King,
An knowledge and understanding's
What experience'll bring,
The native tongues said you can have fun without
The bling,
Wu taught me the power of a Killer Bee sting,
I rap,
I rap,
I rap cuz Rick said become a creative ruler,
Told me the world was mine,
And don't ever let 'em look through ya,
I rap,
Cuz Jazzmattaz said Hip Hop's got class,
The culture lost a voice when Guru passed,
Em reminded me that white people have it hard too,
And became the poster child,
For no matter what do you,
So I do,
G-strut, accent and all,
Pac told me to be ready when my homey's call
Kris said stay informed,
And watch Babylon fall,
While me an Premo hold the underground,
Torch through it all,
I rap,
I rap,
The Fugues said,
Bein suburban don't mean your bougie,
An use every form of music,
That's breathing and livin through me,
Kris told me to see wealth,
And put myself in the pic,
LL said love the ladies,
But don't be a dick,
Nas told me homie,
You could be raw and stay fresh,
Thought they wouldn't understand either,
So he wrote for himself,
Jay-z reminded me as a G,
I'm getting older,
And I"m a need money,
If I want to remain a soldier,
I rap,
Cuz my dad said it was a fad,
And the Fresh Prince told me,
Parents just don't understand,
Maestro told me homie,
You should stick to your vision,
Then he told me in person,
And I made my decision,
I rap
I just lived across the border,
Bein we all were slaves,
The thought ain't outta order,
We all strived to do it,
I just did it well,
My subconscious always knew my future,
It just wouldn't tell,
