hip hop (remix)

Singer:joell ortiz

yo do me a favor?

accidentally step on your white sunglasses

we don't wear those over here

this is hip-hop {uh-huh}

this is carhart jackets timberland boots unlaced {yup}

this is champion hoodies

chicken wings and french fries {uhh}

r.i.p. pieces on the handball court

this is us still fightin police brutality {ah-hah!}

everybody runnin they mouth 'bout how they real

ringtones blowin the doors off album sales

need to be tellin the people 'bout how they feel

so that's how it all started

i'm surprised they feel i'll

music just ain't what it used to

we used to have songs that

you could shoplift or boost to

this is the truth too

listen we gon' pop in the juice crew

then run up in the mall

get loose boo

hard streets

hard times

beats and hard rhymes

five percenters teachin the god lines

two turntables

a mixer

few speakers

haze didn't exist yet

they blew reefer

pink champale

plenty of malt liquor

extension cord was ran through grandma's kitchen

fashion statements

bats was safe then

now

d-block royal bash your face in

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

uhh

geah

check

i said hip-hop

started out in the park

man i knew it was goin down from the start

i be backstage with that extra pound in my heart

butterflies

what a vibe when i tear that whole crowd apart

it's hip-hop

my lips got problems

i spit hot shit

watch the kid rock albums

i hurt verses

and bruise flows

who knows what's next and when

i'm like a nba game

nothin less than 10

it's like all kinda diseases infest my pen

i'm sick i gotta spit

i can't digest my phlegm

this gift

could be a curse if you don't use it right

so call me now

tell half of these dudes good night

they let the lion out the cage

the dragon from out the cage

dudes worship him

girls be draggin him off the stage

you dudes weak

you ruin beats

you don't hurt the track

knahmean? j-o!
