Hip Hop Gave Her

I never knew the feeling hip hop gave her, she was on the brink of death but it saved her. 80's baby this hip hop raised her the art of expressing the mind that's what made her. She wore a hat to the back baggy jeans black back pack eyes like Isis soul priceless. She inspired me and so I write this it might just rise up her lifeless soul I'm just, head over heels for this priceless diamond, whenever she was down hip hop brought her mind up. In an open mic club you might find her, freestyles and spoken word poetry drives her. She kept her hand in the air she was live plus shy no man dedicated to the flow I, knew she was gifted she lifted my pride when she said her rhyme, it's what hip hop gave her. I never knew the feeling hip hop gave her. She's the type to cypher with 3 guys, driven by the Queen Lah past molds a mean eye. Father kept her down but her mother told her dream high so she rocks a-di-da shell toes to be fly. She's the one to get you up on Eric B. and Rah, the only thing she knew was be an emcee or die. On the phone tone speaking frequently till I fell asleep in the morning I'm like, "lil G I tried" She replies with a gleam in her eyes, like I see you as the king in my life. I'm like I'm like..... girl you like a sister to me, a best friend I can kiss on the cheek. Right then I think her heart took time out to rewind my words then she cried her eyes out. I never knew that hip hop gave her me the same day I heard a dj break beats. Since day 1 we grew on each other became a team, last year cancer overcame and changed her. Now she lives where the angels hang at, she misses me when she cries, she gives me Rain back. Since then I haven't been the same cat, now I know where hip hop's made at. Now I know what hip hop gave her, it gave her me, it gave her me.
