Lyrics
Born in the Bronx, '79 fire, Block parties bumpin', kids wired for the sound. DJ Kool Herc, breakin' beats on the wheel, Scratchin' the vinyl, makin' history real. Rhythmic delivery, words sharp like a blade, Rhymin' the struggle, from the streets we invade. Spoken-word thunder, over bass that ignites, Instrumental tracks droppin', chasin' the nights.
Hip Hop, heart of the hustle, soul of the fight, Rappin' our truths under city lights. Beats drivin' forward, samples from the past, Turntables spinnin', makin' moments last. From the cyphers to the charts, we own the flow, Hip Hop forever, watch the culture grow.
Samplin' the soul, James Brown loops in the mix, Drum machines poundin', fixin' the fix. Old school echoes in the trap's heavy bass, Energetic confessions, leavin' no trace. Confident strides through the lo-fi haze, Streetwise stories in a digital maze. Introspective bars, unpackin' the pain, Urban anthems risin' like the pourin' rain.
Hip Hop, heart of the hustle, soul of the fight, Rappin' our truths under city lights. Beats drivin' forward, samples from the past, Turntables spinnin', makin' moments last. From the cyphers to the charts, we own the flow, Hip Hop forever, watch the culture grow.
Yeah, from the 70s spark to the global stage, We flipped the script, turned the page. Vocals over beats, no chains can hold, This rhythm's our blood, worth more than gold. Emotional waves in every rhyme we spit, Poetic fire, never quit.
Trap snares snappin', old school horns wail, Bass-heavy booms tellin' triumph and fail. Rappers paint pictures with multis that cascade, Over samplers stealin' hearts unafraid. From USA roots to the world's wide embrace, Hip Hop's the voice of the displaced. Energetic pulse, introspective gaze, In every bar, our legacy plays.
Hip Hop, heart of the hustle, soul of the fight, Rappin' our truths under city lights. Beats drivin' forward, samples from the past, Turntables spinnin', makin' moments last. From the cyphers to the charts, we own the flow, Hip Hop forever, watch the culture grow.
Hip Hop... eternal beat, never fade... Rhythmic kings, in the game we stay.
