Lyrics

Worldwide what's good We're bumping hip-hop From the the city to the woods From the street corner To your rural neighborhood It's a way of life man this is understood But we know where it started at I'm the living almanac The teacher they call me that Breaking mcee-ing graffiti and DJ-ing Beatboxing fashion and language And knowledge and trading I'm all of that Whackest of rappers are falling back So I called up Whalan he called me back He asked me to come up with all the facts So I'ma get down where the water at? Up in the woods puffing the good Spitting and living the way that I should Eating the minerals spitting the spiritual Big up to Zin Uru all in the hood Culture let me indulge ya No kidding I'm here to adult ya Spitting the facts mcee-ing on rap I'm bringing it back the way I'm supposed to Trees talking the breeze walking Mcees are often hip-hop 1520 Sedgwick the boom bap started on this block So what's a color what's a race? What's the other what's a face? When it's time to spit the raw For sure you better rep your space Hip-hop demands no less Wherever you are be the best Suburban swerving rural urban Grab the mic and beat your chest No need to stress east to west Hip-hop it turns the lights on Yo Jackson Whalan turn your mic on Worldwide what's good We're bumping hip-hop To the city from the woods From the top of the mountain To your local neighborhood It's a way of life man this is understood But we know where at started at From pit bulls to poodles from urban to rural I battle and duel I'm blowing their bugle Cuz some are not used to the way I refuse to Sell out to the coo-coo the way they abuse you This is the teacher man open your pupils Steaming hot baking your noodle If you don't know you can check me on Google Yo Whalan do you Yo I'm from where the forests at Collab-ing with the God of rap With farmers and the tourists In the barn where I'm performing at Forget the second home owning corporate cats Hip-hop I'm out here forging that Coming from the 413 Then into the city and forth and back Backwoods material Link with the legend we're making a miracle Out of the box and we're making it spherical Teachers curriculum this is the peer review I'm Gandalf in the shire headed to Mordor Then it's back to nature Contemplating all of the greats who came before It's that hip-hop folklore While whack mcees are waging a war Cuz being fake could pay you some more But that's not what we're doing this for Forget what's trending never pretending I'm here to be a leader With blast master KRS-One up in your speaker From the clubs to big arenas For teachers and truth seekers From the dopest fans who feeding us Right down to non-believers For the activists fighting these warlords Who trying to cheat us Freeing your mind and leading the blind With words that leave you speechless Worldwide what's good We're bumping hip-hop To the city from the woods From the top of the mountain To your local neighborhood It's a way of life man this is understood But we know where at started at What's good We're bumping hip-hop From the the city to the woods From the street corner To your rural neighborhood It's a way of life man this is understood But we know where it started at
