Poem
Hip hop is not something that will help you get good girls or guys It does not buy time nor does it provide an instant tide for you to ride Hip hop is not the latest toy It is not meant to be used as something to seek revenge or annoy your parents with It is not meant to be cast aside as a phase or latest craze until something better comes along It is a form of self expression It is not a chance for you to learn to twist trees like these so you could be deemed cool on your first smoke session Hip hop is what you think It has nothing to do with what you smoke or what you choose to drink This is culture Just because you smoke or sold does not justify your thug enough to hold. Pull your pants up and fix your fitted cap Talk a good game and recognise what lane you stay at THey say my clothes and style aint hip hop Well excuse me if I don't shop at "hip hop inna box" I didn't build a personna based on a CD At age thirteen I decided just to be me Influenced by surroundings, life experiences, poetry and several dope rappers Pardon my French, let's be honest, I'm too damn old to be talkin about swagger So um, Real recognize real and over time, fake can get scraped off the top like solidified cream Master your high and hold fast to your dream If your goal is to pimp, dip, and dive through the scene I'm sorry young cousin, we ain't on the same team Not sayin you can't really listen to this Some people get pissed when their culture gets dissed and dismissed as a trend as they passionately defend it Just sayin tho, respect it, don't try to end it Pay homage to those who started these flows And chose to keep heads nodding out of control It's those who paved the way for you to grow And expose what you could bring to the show Keep doing yours as long as you're true You're bound to reap rewards and get your just due If not, plan to stay humble, I might rise to the top If not I still let my tape rock till my tape pop! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52jve4T3R90
