Hip Hop - Mos Def[00:00:00]

Written by：J. Kirkland/D Smith[00:00:00]

You say one for the treble two for the time[00:00:03]

Come on y'all let's rock this[00:00:06]

You say one for the treble two for the time[00:00:08]

Come on[00:00:11]

Speech is my hammer bang the world into shape[00:00:12]

Now let it fall huh[00:00:14]

My restlessness is my nemesis[00:00:17]

It's hard to really chill and sit still[00:00:18]

Committed to page I write a rhyme[00:00:20]

Sometimes won't finish for days[00:00:22]

Scrutinize my literature from the large to the miniature[00:00:24]

I mathematically administer[00:00:27]

Subtract the wack[00:00:29]

Selector wheel it back I'm feeling that[00:00:30]

From the core to the perimeter black[00:00:33]

You know the motto[00:00:34]

Stay fluid even in staccato[00:00:35]

Full blooded full throttle[00:00:38]

Breathe deep inside the drum hollow[00:00:39]

There's the humyoung man where you from[00:00:42]

Brooklyn number one[00:00:44]

Native son speaking in the native tongue[00:00:45]

I got my eyes on tomorrow there it is[00:00:48]

While you still trying to find where it is[00:00:50]

I'm on the Ave where it lives and dies[00:00:52]

Violently silently[00:00:54]

Shine so vibrantly that eyes squint to catch a glimpse[00:00:56]

Embrace the bass with my dark ink fingertips[00:00:59]

Used to speak the King's English[00:01:01]

But caught a rash on my lips[00:01:03]

So now my chat just like dis[00:01:05]

Long range from the base-line swish[00:01:07]

Move like an apparition[00:01:09]

Float to the ground with ammuntionchi-chi-POW[00:01:10]

Move from the gatevoice cued on your tape[00:01:13]

Putting food on your plate[00:01:15]

Many crews can relate[00:01:16]

Who choosing your fate yo[00:01:18]

We went from picking cotton[00:01:20]

To chain gang line chopping[00:01:21]

To Be-Bopping to Hip-Hopping[00:01:23]

Blues people got the blue chip stock option[00:01:25]

Invisible man got the whole world watching[00:01:27]

Where ya at I'm high low east west[00:01:30]

All over your map[00:01:32]

I'm getting big props with this thing called hip hop[00:01:33]

Where you can either get paid or get shot[00:01:36]

When your product in stock[00:01:38]

The fair-weather friends flock[00:01:39]

When your chart position drop[00:01:40]

Then the phone calls[00:01:42]

Chill for a minute[00:01:43]

Let's see who else hot[00:01:44]

Snatch your shelf spot[00:01:46]

Don't gas yourself ock[00:01:47]

The industry just a better built cell block[00:01:48]

A long way from the shell tops[00:01:51]

And the bells that L rocked rock rock rock rock[00:01:53]

Hip Hop is prosecution evidence[00:02:20]

An out of court settlement[00:02:21]

Ad space for liquor[00:02:23]

Sick without benefits hungh[00:02:24]

Luxury tenements choking the skyline[00:02:26]

It's low life getting tree-top high[00:02:28]

It is a back water remedy[00:02:30]

Bitter and tender memory[00:02:32]

A class E felony[00:02:33]

Facing the death penalty hungh[00:02:35]

Stimulant and sedative original repetitive[00:02:37]

Violently competitive a school unaccredited[00:02:39]

The break beats you get broken with[00:02:42]

On time and inappropriate[00:02:44]

Hip Hop went from selling crack to smoking it[00:02:45]

Medicine for loneliness[00:02:47]

Remind me of Thelonius and Dizzy[00:02:49]

Propers to B-Boys getting busy[00:02:51]

The war-time snap shot[00:02:53]

The working man's jack-pot[00:02:55]

A two dollar snack box[00:02:56]

Sold beneath the crack spot[00:02:57]

Olympic sponsor of the black Glock[00:02:59]

Gold medalist in the back shot[00:03:01]

From the sovereign state of the have-nots[00:03:03]

Where farmers have trouble with cash crops woooo[00:03:05]

It's all-city like Phase 2[00:03:07]

Hip Hop will simply amaze you[00:03:09]

Praise you pay you[00:03:10]

Do whatever you say do[00:03:12]

But black it can't save you[00:03:13]
