I do it for hip-hop
I do it for hip-hop
Yeah, I do it for hip-hop
Now this is what they call poetry in motion
My soul bleeds on the paper, heart screams with emotion
This my daily devotion, that verses stay deeper than the ocean
So hip-hop you owe me a promotion
Yeah, I do a little boastin and braggin
Whats all the commotion and naggin about
Cause Im still the champ in the south
Cause rappers get in the booth and I keep draggin them out
Where they fired and these pink slips I keep handin them out
Cause this is Theater of Mind, consider it a sign
Of whats to come next, my moneys just fine
Bank filled with dump checks
Terrorist threat flow, proceed to drop (bombs) like Mr. Funk Flex
But I dont do it for the money, I do it from the heart
Ill do it with the beatbox, I did it from the start
Ill do it for the DJs, Ill do it for the charts
The Van Gogh flow, Luda do it cause its art
I do it for the fans, I do it on command
I do it for the front row, I do it for the stands
I spit it for the hood, I do it for the block
And since nine years old, I did it for hip-hop
So, I dont do for the chains and the fancy drops
I do it for hip-hop
I do it for hip-hop
I do it for hip-hop
And I dont do for the chains and the flashin rocks
I do it for hip-hop
I do it for hip-hop
I do it for hip-hop
They say Im so low key, Im socially awkward
Only those that really know me are the ones that I talk with
They smile in the light, hate in the dark,
You call it beef, to me itss just a fuckin walk in the park
Because you are who you are when nobody is looking
Thats who you are so when the cash and cars is gone,
the day after tomorrow
Dont be askin to borrow, ski maskin it hard,
like the way you rap in your bars
I could ride on you and whoever,
devise new endeavors Im as live as hive full of predators
Twenty thousands different species of bees
Some half poisonous sting, some just pollinating their leafs
Its just like rap, some will buzz some will attack,
Compromising their own life in fact
Sixteen years since my first sixteen, pardon the rest of my niggas
But Im the best whoever did it
I dont do for the cars and the fancy drops
Uh, I do it for hip-hop
Yeah, I do it for hip-hop, uh
I do it for hip-hop
And I dont do for the chains and the flashin rocks
Why we do it kid, I do it for hip-hop
Yeah, I do it for hip-hop, uh
I do it for hip-hop
Hip-hop, started out in the park
We used to do it to avoid the Narcs
I used to do it so the homeboy Clark can get the fuck
Off my back while I knocked off these packs
I used to rap to impress my friends
The past of time when I was gettin it in
Just so happens Im so illegal with the pen, they
Aint want me to do anything illegal again
I lost a lot of dawgs to these streets
I got Grammy awards on these beats
Thank God for Cool Herc
Without this shit I probably wouldve got murked
Shout outs to Grandmaster Flash and the cash
And even Jaz bum ass
Hip hop helped me wash me ass
These other rappers couldnt wash my socks
Thats why I took the number one slot
The realest shit in rap comes from my voice box
Lord knows when I was on my clock
I probably never wouldve stopped
Thank God for hip-hop
I dont do for the cars and the fancy drops
I do it for hip-hop
I do it for hip-hop
I do it for hip-hop
And I dont do for the chains and the flashin rocks
Come on, I do it for hip-hop
I do it for hip-hop
I do it for hip-hop

First Cool Hive歌词

Moby

简介： 1965年9月11日生于美国纽约哈林区。巧的是，他的生日正是世贸大厦遭到恐怖袭击的那一天，当年同时遭殃的还有他位于世贸大厦内的音乐工作室，想必他在36岁生日那天过得很不愉快。
