cassidy - it's all about hip hop lyrics

uh, yeah
uh

[intro/chorus]
it’s all about hip hop (hip hop)
hip hop (hip hop)
it’s all about hip hop (hip hop, hip hop, hip hop)
hip hop

[verse]
hip hop a culture that most people wanna be in
middle+eastern, asian, african, european
i’m a bul that’s intelligent but know the four elements:
dj’in, dance, graffiti and mc’in’
but i been seein’ a lot of people that’s uninformed
and need to be enlightened like a thunderstorm
’cause hip hop brung a storm and they changed sh+t
first song they came with was sugarhill gang sh+t
they got the game lit, but that group had a ghostwriter back then
and nowadays it’s the same sh+t
“a hip hop, a hippie to the hippie the…”
movie, cinema, y’all can remember the
song, it was ten minutes long when they spit atcha
but bars is my signature, let’s break down the literature
it was unique on+beat to hear cats rhyme
it was cool to use one syllable at that time
throwback rhyme: “yo, i’m not sweet
and if a sucka cross me, he’ll be six feet”
peep: sweet, feet, one syllable
spit that sh+t now, and that sh+t sound pitiful
’cause in the early 80s in some riddles i heard
the best rappers started rhymin’ two+syllable words
like, “i’m the king of rock
there is none higher
sucker mcs should call me sire”
higher, sire… see? i’m not a liar
ain’t that two syllables? i’m tryna paint a visual
in adidas attire, they were spittin’ fire
for you to be original + what the fans required
the lyricists the only n+ggas i admire
hearin’ dope lines the only time i get inspired
and the subject that i’m addressin’ is a blessin’
i spit scripture, these n+ggas singin’ to the choir
and prior to n+ggas’ desire to wanna be wack
i tried to hold it down and they tried to hold me back
we strapped
all the guns foreign that we pack
we clap the stick, it be barkin’ like tree sap
i felt like a gangsta when i heard ice+t rap
hearin’ rakim and g rap what made me rap
i felt happy to be black when chuck d rap
hearin’ lord finesse punchlines what made me snap
kid ‘n play, they made movies, i got to see that
fresh prince had a sitcom, that’s tv rap
the fat boys, chubb rock, and that heavy d cat
was the first dudes that made it cool to be fat!
melle mel was the first to talk street rap
and kool moe dee had bars, he used to eat cats
krs was the one who used to teach cats
kane’s name was verified, but he couldn’t tweet that
the geto boys showed us how n+ggas in the street act
tribe called quest had a different wave, unique rap
each rap i heard from sl!ck rick was sl!ck sh+t
kriss kross showed me that young n+ggas could get rich
ll showed me that you could rap and get chicks
and pac showed me that anybody could get this
roxanne shante, salt+n+pepa, mc lyte and queen latifah
just a list of sick chicks
but sh+t switched, now it’s a bunch of dipsh+ts
that don’t know their history, so it’s not a mystery
that some critics be dissin’ me, but first do your research
or your opinion don’t mean sh+t to me
yo, realistically?
2 live crew went to court and fought so that artists can talk explicitly
and all this was before ’96, ’cause around that time
i started seein’ sh+t differently
’cause all the artists started [?] quickly
but i didn’t think that they could think quick as me (naw)
so that was ’round the time i picked the pen up
and ever since then a n+gga been up
i’m a star
since i’m in love with hip hop, i got my chin up
’cause ain’t no tellin’ where i’m gon’ end up
it’s time for bars

[outro/chorus]
hip hop (hip hop)
hip hop (hip hop)
it’s all about hip hop (hip hop, hip hop, hip hop)
hip hop
hip hop
hip hop
hip hop
hip hop
