Sho Baraka - I Love Music lyrics

Hey I came up in a crib where music played non-stop From the night till the day we're in them same loud spots Before I heard o' Nas and Jay I would say my pops He used to play all my saints and marvin gaye up top Some have to wait Isley brothers heard the way they rock Earth Wind and fire man you can't say that they not hot So I take from my dad more than the name I got But my love for music I would gladly take my lot I remember rockin out some mj always Had me moon walkin in my socks in the halways Playin tapes in my walkman all day The good days lil will is what they call me And everything I loved I had to try to do it I tried to play some sports but I fell in love with music Plus that love stayed and that love grew deeper It wasn't goin' nowhere either I love to hear the kick hit, love to hear the snare pop, love to hear them hi-hats play I love music much more than I can say, I love music I was just designed that way I love to hear the violin, love to hear the keystroke, love to hear trumpet play Thank God for music, ain't much more that I can say, thank God for music, thank God for music Eh, I discovered hip hop and I was never the same I got my first CD still remember the name Started to bump Jay-Z he was ahead of the game Me and my boys bumped it all the time it's regular thangs I remember middle school we used to write them rhymes Shout out to K, Rock and Nick we used to write them lines Was talkin foolishness I used to swipe dem dimes I used to look back at mine like "I was tight this time" I got serious about it tryna make that heat Recordin in my room and Leak he used to make me beats When times is hard, my first love had made things sweet I had dreams of goin platinum tryna take things deep But then a light came on, I changed my mind to anon The trick was tryna find a way to take the whole game on I saw that it was bigger than just tryna put my name on (why?) Jesus is supreme and that's what I wanna display homes I love to hear the kick hit, love to hear the snare pop, love to hear them hi-hats play I love music much more than I can say, I love music I was just designed that way I love to hear the violin, love to hear the keystroke, love to hear trumpet play Thank God for music, ain't much more that I can say, thank God for music, thank God for music Back in the day when I was young I went from rich 'n to poor Fell in love with music poppin n breakin on floors Figured i would bust some flows instead of breakin my bones Thinkin like i moved the crowd in my mirrors at home Within the cipher zone i found that i could hold my own Had dreams of blazin up the joint like cheech and chong I'ma be a rap star when I grow up Light a match to my gods head I'ma blow up If they don't recognize my sk**s joker so what They don't know talent when they see it they don't know us But I met the One who did His name was Jehovah Took me off of d**h row made a no limit soldier Still love music just as much as the next man I just use it now to save jokers from they d**h jam Theirs glories in the whistle blow Toe tap, hand clap, heart beat You did your thing tip off my high hat I love to hear the kick hit, love to hear the snare pop, love to hear them hi-hats play I love music much more than I can say, I love music I was just designed that way I love to hear the violin, love to hear the keystroke, love to hear trumpet play Thank God for music, ain't much more that I can say, thank God for music, thank God for music
