Spec Boogie - Hip Hop is Alive lyrics

I became a man where the kids are ruthless truth is I ain't a corner boy I'm a stoop kid Raised with dudes who do b**h, pump base like dude on the roots with the chewstick On the roof with a 25th, lickin shots through the air like the school year going out for the music But hip hop been died, way before the rapper nas realized Died way before the south started to rise 'fore pac and big's lives were exploited on the vibe I been in the lab like Dr. Frankenstein, piecing it together taking my time Only thing that's missing now is a mind and a little electricity then it's alive Nah who am i kidding i give a sh** if its revived as long as i'm getting mine Bombing splittin a n***a spine with the rhyme, grindin hitting brazillian dimes from behind Robbed him sticking him with the nine for the shine, it will flash you blind in the and of the lost and Right hand might cut left hand off and, guess we're just obsessed with flossing Polishing the cage the bird inside starving The sh** i got on right now costing me more than i wanna admit but i give in Cost of living ask russel simmons, he the reason that you hear me here laying out the plan for us to be millionaires Took us from the parks to the market chairs, now he tryna keep the pr clear for the bears? ......might drop their profits here been in stones for how long and now he cares? Came back and said everything is fair and it is bur them warzones he ain't go near? Yeah he did more for the poor than i did this year but its clear man something in the air Trna see clear, so when i get there i know which way to steer so pardon if i stare Charge my cross?, riding the dark horse in the apocalypse i pop a lot of sh** with due clause Hip hop died like a hoar, down on all fours ripped draws and cum on her jaw We blast at each other, then run from the law like the life of your enemy worth more than yours Nah, i'm too angry, but can you blame me? i see it plainly And everybody else does too so it's the old syndrome of the emperors new clothes Keep your mouth closed or be labeled a hater, worst yet conscious there goes your paper! Every MC is really a money chaser, including me ain't nothing free pay up So i can get my weight up and lay up where the sun stay up and women get down Queens running all across the board tryna checkmate the king can't jump the pawns They be like, boogie what type of stuff you on? when i write blood is drawn from dusk till dawn Truck? sk**s dog just that don't cut it anymore, but i get a rush from it I'm not the one to try to ....... if yall want it Catch me on a stoop in the stuy with a truth giving the youth a new way to rise up Wise up don't size up giants eyes up an*lyze us then try it Buy it for yourself but the folk ain't buy it, whole frame thinner than a c**aine diet Nah it ain't dead but the whole thing tired my marlow? flow got the whole game quiet Do or die if you saying go and get your guap hit it when you get your shot make it hard make em drop Make sure it's hot leave the scene before the neighbors call the cops, put it on the block let it rock My cry alarm flow getting up in ya insides... with the bk enzymes .........god's gift to the DJ Human highlight mr instant replay, pimps and police slay where these seeds play Add full of preachers and crack scholars, all leave the hood faster than the black dollar Never took em back holla at blue collar raps, i got a stack saying you don't want a part of that You wanna know where the art is at? i rep that till the line in my heart is flat And i ain't never wrote a rap for the radio but i got a crazy flow so they gotta play me tho s**as, gotta f** wit ya boy cause i show off at your tissue and i run with the wolves Who only with the floor for your safe black gloves to keep the ..... off of your face Want major cake sicker than trace the ..., duck if you don't want your whole front replaced Won't run ya race got my own lane thanks, making dollars is still a change till i rake the bank Coulda been did it but decided to wait And just when your favorite rapper thought it was safe!?
