Dedicated lyrics

I have a dream of a scene between the green hills

Clouds pull away and the sunlight is revealed

People don't talk about keepin' it real

It's understood that they actually will

And intoxicated and stimulated emcees

Starin' the in trees, paranoid are gone with the breeze

Watch them flee

Hip hop heads take a walk with me, and what you'll see

Is a land where the sand's made of crushed up wax

And the sky beyond you is krylon blue

And everybody speaks in a dialect of rhyme

Emcees have left materialism behind them

Meanwhile I just grip my mic

And hope me and my team make it through alright

Because say what you will, and say what you might

But don't ignore who it's for at the end of the night

Because,

This is dedicated to the kids

Dedicated to where ever music lives

Dedicated to those, tired of the same old same

And dedicated to the people advancin' the game

What's real

It's the kids who know that something's wrong

What's real

It's the kids who think they don't belong

What's real

It's the kids who have no where to run

Who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun

I've seen a lot of sh*t

I've talked to a bum out on Sunset Strip

He asked me "How would you feel if everybody acted like you didn't exist?"

You'd lose your grip, probably eventually flip

So let it be known, the only reason that we do this

Is so you can pick it up and just bang your head to it

While emcees fight to see who can be the Commonist

We float overhead like a space odyssey monolith

Overseeing the game, over being part of the same old thing, it's all gonna change

In a hurricane of darkness and pain and acidic rain and promises you won't do it again

Meanwhile I just grip my mic

And hope me and my team make it through alright

Because say what you will, and say what you might

But don't ignore who it's for at the end of the night

Because

This is dedicated to the kids

Dedicated to where ever music lives

Dedicated to those, tired of the same old same

And dedicated to the people advancin' the game

What's real

It's the kids who know that something's wrong

What's real

It's the kids who think they don't belong

What's real

It's the kids who have no where to run

Who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun

Pullin' me close the shadow is warm inside

This is where I feel at home, this is my place to hide

Pullin' me close the shadow is warm inside

This is where I feel at home, this is my place to hide

This is dedicated to the kids

Dedicated to where ever music lives

Dedicated to those, tired of the same old same

And dedicated to the people advancin' the game

What's real

It's the kids who know that something's wrong

What's real

It's the kids who think they don't belong

What's real

It's the kids who have no where to run

Who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun

This is dedicated to the kids

Dedicated to where ever music lives

Dedicated to those, tired of the same old same

And dedicated to the people advancin' the game

What's real

Everybody who doesn't feel safe

What's real

Everybody who knows they're out of place

What's real

Everybody with no where to run

Who hide in the shadows waiting for the sun
