| And when I talk about "Hip-Hop Music!", | |
| I know[Kris] | |
| One: Breaking or breakdancing | |
| Rally b-boying, freestyle or streetdancin' | |

| The wisdom of the elders from way back whence | |

| Here's how | |
| I'm tellin' it, all 9 | |
| ElementsWe stand in love, no we're never failing it | |
| Intelligent? | |
| No doubtHip- | |
| Hop? We're not selling it out, we're just lettin' it out | |
| If you're checkin' us out this hour, we teatchin' hip-hop | |
| Holy integrated people have it, | |
| I'm the present power![Chorus] | |
| Rap is something you do!3x | |
| Hip-Hop is something you live! *scratched* | |

| Skaters, B | |
| MX-bike riders rock | |
| Don't you ever stop! | |
| You are hip-hop | |
| You doing the same things we did on our block in the suburbs | |
| You know you be packing that black block | |
| Selling that crackrock and ecstacy | |
| Gettin' pissydrunk, fallin' out next to me | |
| But like I told those in the ghettoes | |
| Here's the facts! | |
| True hip-hop is so much more than that | |
| Some much more than rap, so much more than beats | |
| Hip-hop is all about victory over the streets | |
| What you see on | |
| TV is a lie | |
| That's not something you wanna live or pattern your life by | |
| But, huh that's too much preachin' ain't it? | |
| You don't want the "edutainment", you wanna be dead on the pavement | |
| Well, so be it, some of ya'll ain't gonna see it | |
| Others wanna enslave your mind! | |
| Kris wanna free it![Chorus] | |
| Rap is something you do!5x | |
| Hip-Hop is something you live! *scratched*"Oh yea" *scratched* --- | |
| From "P is dead""I have spent my whole life livin'", "talk to the fullest", "no doubt"[Kris] | |
| You know that's why these rappers can't hang | |
| Cause the essence of hip-hop is not a material thang | |
| They so careless, hip-hop is in a {? we give | |
| Rap we do, hip-hop we live | |
| How many times | |
| I gotta say it? | |
| How the radio ain't gonna play it | |
| And you hip-hoppers sit back and okay it | |
| Think about it! (think about it) | |
| The present course of action, we have got to reroute it![Chorus: repeat 3X] | |
| Hip-Hop is something you live! |
