Bronx Blade Thump

from the blocks to the mics we ignite yo yo yo yo yo yo from the block from the blocks to the mics we ignite born in the bronx fire rimming pulse in the night no desire to retire spoken words sharp like a blade in the dark rhymes stack high leave a permanent mark overbeats that dump heartbeats in the street instrumental waves crash carry the heat dj spins the vinyl samples from the solo records reborn making broken whole we rap about the struggle the hustle the grind voices rise from the concrete leaving echoes behind bass drops heavy like the weight on our chest but we flow through the pain put the chaos to rest hip-hop the rhythm that never dies from the smoking fire under city skies be driven dreams on a sample track turntables turning ain't no turning in back from the brakes to the hooks we own the night hip-hop for old and untied rip it rebound and work you drum machines bang like thunder in the storm focus cut deep transform the norm no far grit in the air digital dreams unfold urban tales whisper stories yet untold confidence strides on the streetwise path and energetic vibes dodge the aftermath introspective bars peel back the layers reveal the raw truth conquer the fears samples slice the past remix the now trap beats echo old school battles from bpm slow burn the rush we ride the tempo feel the lyrical crush hip-hop the rhythm that never dies from the smoke and fire under city skies be driven dreams on a sample track turntables turning ain't no turning in back from the bricks to the hooks we own the night hip-hop for old and on tight ribbon rebellion wordplay defined in the genre we thrive making history shine force for the culture feel the roots run deep from usa origins promises we keep no chains on the floor we keep no chains on the floor just beats that liberate hip-hop's heartbeat stealing our faith emotional waves in every line poetic justice one at a time we build from the 70s of all through the years trap waves crash old school cheers your face heavy bombs drop shake the foundation focus vibrate spark a revolution dj techniques weave the magic thread samples from legends head streetwise swagging introspective blazing energetic fire set the world ablaze but this is all we're gonna do this is all we're gonna do our anthem our voice in the frame hip-hop eternal light in the way yeah hip-hop the rhythm that never dies from the smoke and fire on the city skies be tripping dreams on a sample track turn tables turning ain't no turning in back from the brakes to the hooks we own the night
