Delta Heartbeat Hush

Born in the Bronx where the concrete cracks wide 77's fire kids turning the tide Block parties bumping no stage, just the street DJ Herb scratching brakes, making hearts skip a beat Rhythm and flow spilling from lips like a river I'm stacking heavy delivering truth to the liver Spoken word warriors paying pictures with sound Over beats that thunder, shaking the ground Hip-hop, the pulse of the soul in the night Lapping our stories, igniting the fight Samples from the past, looped in the now Base hitting hard, we rise, we vow From turntables spinning to drum machines banging of day confessions, no change, we're changing Hip-hop forever, the voice of the wrong In every ball, we breaking the law Instrumental tracks driving like engines on fire Low-fi vibes lifting us higher and higher Samples, still the same Stealing snippets from jazz to the funk Weaving up tight, never sinking the jump Confidence strides through the urban maze Streetwise and sharp, cutting through the haze Introspective whisper in the heat of the cypher Emotional depths, surviving the viper Pause for the scratch, let the needle drop slow Echoes of origins where the wild winds blow From old school battles to trap waves crashing Digital dreams in the night, passions clashing No script, just heart in the rhythm we trust Hip-hop's the mirror reflecting the day Just turn it up loud, feel the energy surge This genre's our anthem on history's verge Eighty to eleven beats per minute, we ride Face heavy waves crashing like the tide Focus over vinyl, turntables twist fate DJ techniques slicing through the debate Poetic rebellion in every line drawn From USA streets to the world we're reborn Emotional anchors in a sea of the lost Rapping redemption, no matter the cost Hip-hop the pulse of the soul in the night Rapping our stories, igniting the fight Samples from the past, root in the now Days hitting hard, we rise, we vow From turntables spinning to drum machines begging Vanity confessions, no chains, we're changing Hip-hop forever, the voice of the raw In every bar, we breaking the law Hip-hop Eternal flow, never fade From the cradle of culture, the legacy's made Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop
