It’s The Hip Hop

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well a few years ago they said it wouldn't last Why it's just another fad and it soon will pass But as time went on hip-hop came along And now we're proud to say it's still going strong Now anywhere you go pump your disco I'll bet you'll find an MC there rocking the show People play it on tape and the radio Hip-hop to the beat, catching on you know [Chorus] It's the hip-hop Make you wanna get on the floor It's the hip-hop Make you all yell for more It's the hip-hop When you just can't stop Well it's the hip-hop ya'll Makes your body rock [Verse 2] Well in the summer in the city when it's really hot You move the cars out the way and close off the block Then you hear the scratching sound of a DJ throwing down And people come running from miles around As the MC rhymer, DJ cuts the beat You see a crew of fly girls dancing in the street Then you say to yourself "I hope it never stops" That's when you know you've been struck by the old hip-hop [Chorus] It's the hip-hop Make you wanna get on the floor It's the hip-hop Make you all yell for more It's the hip-hop When you just can't stop Well it's the hip-hop ya'll Makes your body rock [Verse 3] Hip-hop is a art, a form of expression It releases your tension and inside oppression Got something on your mind, won't let you rest Sit down by the rhyme and get it off your chest Somebody got you upset, there's no reason to fight Just take out your anger when you're on the mic And once you do this I'm sure you'll insist Hip-hop is number one and at the top of the list [Chorus] It's the hip-hop Make you wanna get on the floor It's the hip-hop Make you all yell for more It's the hip-hop When you just can't stop Well it's the hip-hop ya'll Makes your body rock [Post-Chorus] And we would like to say hip-hop is not complete Without mellow Freddy B just cuttin' up the beat So hit it! So now that you know what the hip-hop is Check it out party people, it goes like this [Verse 4] Well I'm a captain of rapping, believe it so That I create masterpieces like Vincent Van Gogh Write a rhyme or a story like Edgar Allen Poe We paint the Sistine Chapel from Michaelangelo Take you on an expedition like Lewis and Clark MCs'll see the light if they're living in the dark I'm the greatest of the great, there could never be one greater The beginning, the ending, the alpha and omega The mic manipulator, rhyme interpretator The Captain GeeWiz, MC exterminator Preserverance to endure anything, your mother Why, who you gonna call, me, the MC brother 'Cause these rhymes I produce make you go "Ho!" E.S.P. get on the mic 'cause I think you should go [Verse 5] No one is greater, a sight for spectators A sturdy meal to eat, I'm not mashed potatoes Other MCs appetizers, and I'm the big feast E.S.P. rap ruler, and reign like a beast Have a big grandstand, a feast, a festival That's what you'll be waiting on my arrival Rapper's attorney, secretary of the rap President of MCs of all countries Captain and general, the king in the ball At my expense and any call We can mix things up in an MC brawl Whether he or her, I'm talkin' to all of ya'll And all these rappers on the mic who like to bite Get your pads out now, get ready to write [Verse 6] Well I'm a breadwinner, MC contender Top of [?] on the rapping agenda The classified info 'cause you know that I know I helped Davy Crockett with the Alamo And I have enough money to buy a Sherman tank EZ-L-Double-E, the Titanic I sank I want the Pony Express, [?] to the chest And after bust into the party, I'm playing fresh [Chorus] It's the hip-hop Make you wanna get on the floor It's the hip-hop Make you all yell for more It's the hip-hop When you just can't stop Well it's the hip-hop ya'll Makes your body rock [Post-Chorus] So hip-hop, you don't stop Everybody run and rush the record shop [Outro] Yeah The Mighty Mic Masters are the place to be Yo, they got the Gee, EZ-L-Double-E And don't forget me, E.S.P The Mixmaster Freddy B up on the wheels of steel [?] big fun
