Hip Hop

Creative ideas originating from what was called
B Bop music
But what we did with it sounded kind of Hip
So we called it Hip Hop
Yea.......

Say it along with me
It ain’t nothing like Hip Hop music
This was a way of life from a younger
More hipper generation
But a lot of folks refused it
I mean everywhere we tried to get in
Where we thought we would fit in
Doors were closed on us
People turned their backs on us
Not knowing that this was a movement that united us
So it was a must to create our own community
One of love, peace, and unity
Because as a generation we were left out in the dark
Ass out with nowhere else to go
See we use to do it out in the park
Joined together in one place people with liked minds
It didn't matter if you were a
Tagger, Beat Boxer, a B Boy, DJ 
Or if you were tight with the rhymes
Here in our own little world is where we lived
