Hip Hop Never Left

Verse 1:
As we proceed to encounter slow speeds
My flow speak lucid dreams over dope beats
No reason I should be leavin’
This stage the one thing gave me something to believe in
Even this demeanour made it easier for me to be
Though I staggered blindly, set my mind free
So don’t mind me, if you had it hard to believe, That an emcee could step off signal and might bleed
It’s like Ali, righteous behind his right lead
It’s like Kweli, compassionate on the mic lead
By procession, fall dedicated behind the shepherd, Bottom dollar you can bet I never took it lightly
Why stop at a transient point to sight see when, You can set your sights on the deep end
We saw setbacks and obstacles right next to impossible
But how‘s intimidated gonna fuck with unstoppable?

Chorus:
As I try to find solace through the solitude
Hip Hop never left me so I know what I’m grateful to
And in this cruel game of loving you
Rap music never cheated on me so I know who I‘m loyal to

Verse 2:
Through bouts of anxious isolation
Eyes wide blank feign focus on depression
Answers overwhelmingly outnumbered by questions
Too late to start stressing early learning hard lessons
It was the sixteenth step never had me guessin’
I guess the 5th Silhouette be owed a mic blessin’
Format of the hats dapper enough to rap stuff
Quotable as tracks discussed at all hours, Beautiful as Ras discussing the lords powers
Typical as that we discover the force ours
Fall to the floor but spring board audible y’all
Never compromise something so divine
As the mind's design, that shows preference
That shows how you gonna know where your best is
Rap shows help me understand my fellow man
And we stand together even if separated by foreign land
Even if separated by foreign land
Even if separated by foreign land
Yeah that's the master plan. Let me see dem hands
(Chorus)
