Back to the lyrical MC s
The skillful DJs, beat boys,
F
G
People give you ears
G
F
Rappers, put down your mic,
Abusive, you see the truth
I'm trying to see where your food is
My two cents, I'm through with
the dog and pony show
Bring back the five elements
where music say so's like whoa
So much drama in the SCA
It's kinda hard livin' holy
walkin' this Christian way
So, ah, listen to the music
that uplifts Christ
Or bout bouncin' what you got
We bumpin' Jesus music
Bm
G
C
It ain't easy, me and me
Or will I stay free?

On the daily, suckas wanna hate me,

hutchas wanna date me

Fools wanna play me,
Came up in Reconomics,
Get you with the taste
and throw the A's in your face,

Hip -hop is the voice,

be a Christian to speak
And wave it like you just don't care
F#
G
And if you cling to the truth
G
C
G
Then let your name be Nate and yeah, yeah
Hip Hop lost touch with him
We don't want to lose him,
we elevate him in the highway
And preach his heart
And vow to never tell the truth in part
Back in the day,
To say what we had to say
C#m
G
It seems hip -hop has lost its way
So let's see if we can get that
and graffiti spray
Yeah, I know it's 91,
but you can still jump to this track
Yeah, we rockin' to this hip -hop flavor

My posse's on broadway and broad day
Em
G
with the same mind and state
We ain't backing down

We gon' take it back to basics
going back to the underground
F#
G
Hip -hop is fading out,
D#
Em
shocking the life
and bringing her back
through hip -hop music
8 bars pack, man, you're on,

On that kingdom transit line
G

And if that train jumps off the track
back in the limelight
A#
G
And the chains of addictive behavior
With a sin -filled world
G
F
But I ain't gonna live my life
Before I became a teen
I remember the scene
F
G
Scratch your back,
spend all of the graphing
Getting intimate with
the spirit of truth
so don't call it a comeback
we created this form of music
to say what we had to say
It seems hip -hop has lost its way
So let's see if we can get that
F#
Back to the lyrical MCs and skillful DJs,
B -boys and graffiti spray
It seems hip -hop has lost its way
So let's see if we can get that
yo, yo, my man
Frog and Smoove,
For Phillip Pacman, down for hip
-hop
Yo, my man Akbar, down for hip -hop
The Willie Will, he's down for hip -hop
Your boy Jazz, nigga, yo,
I'm down for hip -hop
