Let the beat drop

Just let the beat drop

Let the beat drop

You know its crazy

What

Certain moments in your life define you

I feel it

That's when you really find out

You become a man

From the cradle to grave

We all dream of getting paid

As a youngster growing up back in the days

Guess you could say nobody wants to work for it

This is the way of the world everybody goes for it

From the womb to the tomb lookin for the easy route

Big cars picket fence with a big house

Enjoying life's little simple subtleties

They go hand in hand with life's tiny luxuries

It's hiphop and imma ride till i die

When you look in my eyes you won't see a disguise

I'm just one of the guys and I'm through with the lies

From all these evil ass snakes that can't wait to chastize

Doin my best trying to keep my sanity

Live for myself i could care less about vanity

In these times and in these days

People are more worried about

What people are gonna say

It's hiphop and you know it don't stop

Comin from the top of the rocks so what you got

Everybody on the east go crazy

Everybody on the west go crazy

Everybody in the dirty south go crazy

In the frozen tundra of the north go crazy

For hiphop you know i go crazy

For hiphop we go crazy

I can hear the talks man i can hear the whispers

You wanna bump your gums

You'll get popped like blisters

I sit back as the track spins like twisters

This is groundbreaking shit

Thats going down in his to ry

Enjoying the scenery from the top of the peaks

I'm rockin the beat

From sixteen street to venice and south beach

It's funny how these phony rappers try to compete

But its hiphop and i got love for emcees

Who do their own thing ain't trying to show bling

Survival of the fittest

It's hard hittin from the beginning

It all started for me when i started spittin writtens

We keep it real

It all began one day in the streets

You know the deal

This is how i get down tonight

And check it this is the sound when i make it right

It's hiphop and you know it don't stop

Comin from the top of the rocks so what you got

Everybody on the east go crazy

Everybody on the west go crazy

Everybody in the dirty south go crazy

In the frozen tundra of the north go crazy

For hiphop you know i go crazy

For hiphop we go crazy

Flick on the tube avoiding the news

Cruising through the channels

Surfing kickin with nothing to do

All of a sudden

I felt the aura of a dozen white angels

With halos but eight were hoverin

We know what you need to do and so do you

We will be watching you need to see it through

At that moment chills ran down my spine

My hair stood straight up i took it as a sign

We all need to make a change for the better

So through hiphop i'm writing you letter

But honestly things are looking promising

I finally stomped out

All the evilness that was haunting me

The pressure is mounting i feel i might break

My kids are counting on dad

There's more than me at stake

I often bite off more than i can take

Shake off the haters take a bow and skate

It's hiphop and you know it don't stop

Comin from the top of the rocks so what you got

Everybody on the east go crazy

Everybody on the west go crazy

Everybody in the dirty south go crazy

In the frozen tundra of the north go crazy

For hiphop you know i go crazy

For hiphop we go crazy
