Hip Hop

[Joell Ortiz]

Yo do me a favor, accidently step on your white sun glasses

We don't wear those over here this is hip hop(that's right)

This is Carhart jackets, Timberland boots, unlaced

This is Champion hoodies, chicken wings and french fries

RIP pieces on the handball court, this is us still fightin' police brutality

This is hip hop

[Verse 1]

I ain't tryin' to bring New York back

I'm just a breath of fresh air, that good old New York rap

Slick talk to the track, come on who brought that to the game

Graffiti all on the train, get up your name I don't feel how I used to feel

I'm in my 20's so a new Nas joint used to give me the chills

In the barber shop tryin' to cop a new hot tape

Them Rob lowes is crazy the doo wop's greatest hip hop(hip hop)

And yes I'm a fan first if you from the south, finger snap till your hands hurt

If you from the west W's in the air, if you from the east coast act like you from here

The good old two step, the classic head nod

The thirsty iced grill, who wants to get robbed?

That was the energy in the club, on the real

That was the energy that I love, aww man

[Hook]

This is hip hop, hands up if you forever a fan of hip hop

I wake up hip hop, go to sleep hip hop

Dream about hip hop, cause I am hip hop, aww man

This is hip hop, hands up if you forever a fan of hip hop

I wake up hip hop, go to sleep hip hop

Dream about hip hop, cause I am hip hop

[Verse 2]

I ain't tryin' make you dance I just rip beats but the

Soul in my voice, give you quick feet

I don't know what it's like to not dig deep

When I'm holding this mic I don't just speak, pipsqueak

The tides come in and the earth shakes

200 hundred mile an hour winds I'm your worst fate, birthdate

July 6th 1980 how can your age even matter when you rhyme this crazy, aww man

I gotta thank the lord cause with this pen in my hand

I don't think that hard it just happens

Wrist action classic in the makin'

I kick back and just laugh I'm happy I'm amazing

Look at me gaze into my eyes, see the poverty?

Now understand why me and this music just gotta be?

It's something that's inside of me and I can't shake it

So I embrace it, and let y'all taste it, aww man

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

Somethin' happen to may body when that track smokin'

Y'all swim more wilder than me, I be backstrokin'

I'm the best and my fans'll second that notion

I'll be the last man standing with my back broken

Crack open a couple of fortys Celebrate Mijo

My competition, man they squared in the H3

I run circles around them like a skate key

And turn your little buzz into "Yo, whatever happened..?

So don't play B I ain't talking shit

I just got a awful gift, that'll make your office doors just stiff

They won't open so no braggin' and no boastin' while I'm hungry

Matter fact, don't do that when I got a lot of money

Yup, I'm feelin' myself, that sound right

You gotta step in that ring like, listen I'll pound Mike

You gotta step on that court like, I could hold down Mike

The way I step on that stage and have the whole crowd like, aww man

[Hook]
