Old-School Hip Hop (2018) Hip Hop Who I Be
Composed by Knight Ryder / Jermain Brown
Lyrics:

Hip hop, this is who I be
So come rock with me

I was sitting at home just hanging with the boys
So we got bored, decided to make some noise
We got the tape player out and we pressed record
Started spitting out rhymes like never before
Hip hop and just open the door of opportunity that we all been waiting for
No pads for the rhymes now we out the door
Bought a boombox that we all chipped in for
Now we all in the street ready to perform
Handing out mixtapes for those who applaud
We became obsessed with this hip hop music
And every time that we rhyme, yo, these kids would lose it
So when you with this talent that we could use it
To make some change and leave you influenced
Hip hop is what I love and I’ll never leave it
I put my mind to it I can achieve it
Pause
Yeah, yeah, bring it back now
about to spit fire on the track now
When it comes to battles never back down
The hip hop throne give me that crown

Hip hop, this is who I be
This is what I breathe
Hip hop, hip hop
And when I hear that beat
It makes me feel free
Hip hop, hip hop, this is who I be
This is what I breathe
Hip hop, hip hop
And when I hear that beat
It makes me feel free
Hip hop, hip hop

This passion that we have, made something of it
And any time we failed, we rise above it
When we give it to the public, they got to love it
Look at the STEEZ that we have, you can’t touch it
’Cause when we on the mic, we bring the ruckus
We created a supreme rap team
And we’ll proceed ’til we reach our dreams
Hip hop is a way of life so you can never separate me from the mic
Yeah, so come correct when you step to us
We going to blow up the game, when the record’s up
We go hard as soon as we might check it up
Pause
Volume up on the microphone
All you other MCs leave the mic alone
I paint a perfect picture, Michelangelo, yeah
Every time we flow

Time to look back where we all got started
And all of the hate left us brokenhearted
But we kept it moving
And we never departed from the dream we had
We kept on marching
We knew we were out of this world, straight martians
The determination we have is what sparked it
Huh, this is all I have right here as I stand with the mic in my hand
