A Hip Hop Revolution
Competition in this generation marks the determination of
H.I.P.H.O.P
We will be those who carry insanity
Our craniums are crosswords of metaphors except the answers sometimes don’t match up with the numbers
Our minds are doors left open because we’ve recognized our power and decided to let wonders roam worlds that might clash with others
We have de la soul that’s killin’ us softly coming from a gangster’s paradise
This paradise detrimental to the souls and the youth but you can’t break the cycle cause “yolo”
the ghetto remains in the bloods of the kings of the coast wars
This is spoken word the cousin of hip-hop
who seem to be distant from one another
but in reality they are from the same mother
Of beats rhythms rhyme with rhyme and time and after time I’ve drowned in my own mind because they spit about dimes and crime after crime they drown in their grime
Turntables now run backwards, mix tapes record, record amounts of reckless senseless notions that have made it lose its power
Brooklyn seems to be going through series of identity complexes
Its DNA thread of hip-hop is long forgotten
Hip-hop encodes genetic instruction used to develop living organisms
Because hip hop is biology, it is also philosophy
My fascination with hip-hop has let me see authenticity
Like wu tang this stuff is forever a
prism of messages compressed into minimal space
it should elevate consciousness
Hip hop is forever hip hop is in the past and right now I am ask how long does forever last
