[Intro]
Ahh
I just get a smile on my face when it starts dog, eish
This is my love song... to Hip-Hop
[Verse 1]
I had a crush on you in ‘95
Lusted you but I was shy
What to do? I must decide
You must've knew I was the guy
That sent you the note in class
Asked the folks to pass it
Had you noticed that I had a poem in the back
Young and fine in school
You hung with the kinda cool
If only you knew what I would do
To spend time with you
Met through a mutual friend
Introduced by the pen
Been trying to get to know you ever since
Hip-Hop, I love you…
[Chorus]
Yo, Hip-Hop, I love you
Hip-Hop, I love you
Hip-Hop, I'm in love with you
[Verse 2]
Ah, I’ve been keeping it real behind the mic I speak what I feel
So when I die just read the sleeve I’m not leaving a will
The crowd had me believing I’m ill, I needed to chill
Before it got to my head like a drug fiend and a pill
Speaking of skill, at times the rhymes get deeper than drills
Want me to prove it come closer take a seat and I will
Rhymes are priceless can’t afford them with even a mill
My heads are soldiers and I’m the sergeant leading the drill
If you ain’t rapping raw then what are you rapping for
My rapping is more unforgettable that Nat King Cole
I’m cracking jaws, haters are running back in-doors
I come at a price like marriage and wack in-laws
The crowd is always trapped in awe
More is what they’re always asking for
As props keep coming back and forth
From scribbling graffiti rhymes behind bathroom doors
To releasing a project, what for?
'Cause… Hip-Hop, I love you
[Chorus]
Hip-Hop, I love you
Hip-Hop, I'm in love with you
Hip-Hop, I'm in love with you
[Verse 3]
Look, I’m determined to make it
Worse than a craving I’m burning to break in
Through All this waiting I’ve learned to be patient
Verb is amazing so is the beat have you heard this arrangement
It’s enabling you to relate to the words on my pages
I’m making sure that haters are hitting the curb on the pavement
They trying to hold me back like I was a bird that’s been caged in
Using combination of word placement that makes sense
Constructing superb statements hurting you fake men
And the rhyming? I spit rhymes with exceptional timing
This is not an album this here is a collector’s item
It's the best assignment so when I demonstrate expect a riot
As for the haters they get left behind it
If this is in your tape deck rewind it
Stay testifying it’s worth using your pay check to buy it
On every single playlist you’ll find it
It’s some great hits combined with
Lyrics that’ll straight test your mind kid
Hip-Hop, I love you
[Chorus]
Hip-Hop, I love you
Hip-Hop, I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
[Outro]
Ah, Hip-Hop I knew I loved you
When everyone thought I was crazy
I would wear my school pants like really low
You know stay in trouble for that
My mom didn’t understand it at the time you know
She thought it was evil
Praying for me whatever you know
But yoh, Hip-Hop I loved you
And I stayed with you man you know
Till I met cats like Dzi, cats like Stethoscope
These cats were like, were like the preachers man
Who made it official between me and you
You know made us say I do you know
Forever y’all, Hip-Hop I love you
