ODE TO HIP-HOP Lyrics by ARi HOTEP

The Mennefer Project

2015

I GOT BARS FOR FOREVER THEY AINT ALL WRITTEN
LEGENDARY BALTIMORE O CAL RIPKEN
NAVY SEAL AMBITIONS SUICIDE EXPLOSION
EVAPORATE 2 LONDON FOG BRITAIN'S NEW ENGLAND
COLONIZE A COLONY ARTICULATE IN FRENCH
BRAVADO NEVER PHONY LADIES NEED GENTS
GOT JAZZ FROM NEW ORLEANS PETE MARAVICH
NEVER BEEN TO DALLAS BUT BORN A MAVERICK
EGO SLIGHTLY ALTERED JUST A LITTLE BIT
HAD A CONVERSATION HEARD IT WAS SLICK AS RICKS
FLAT IRONED TIME HIP-HOP RAN IN A DITCH
IN LIFE THERE’S ALWAYS SOMETHING GOTTA STAY EQUIPPED
DROVE UP THE ROAD PULLED UP ON THIS CHICK
FRAGILE AT 40 BUT EXTRAORDINARY THICK
BIRTH IN THE BIG APPLE DIDN’T GET SPECIFIC
GAVE ME A NOTE PAD SCRIBBLED LINES IN IT
KNOWLEDGE WAS BORN FIRST STANZA GIVEN
REMINDED ME OF POETRY INTRODUCED RHYTHM
MENTIONED SHE HAD STYLE PLUS NICE FLOW
SPORTED GOLD RINGS AND A MATCHING ROPE
APPEARANCE OF A CLOWN THOUGHT IT WAS A JOKE
IM FROM THE MID SOUF YA’LL CALL US COUNTRY FOLK
CALLED A TOW TRUCK WASN’T TO SURE OF IT
GAVE HER PAD BACK ASKED IF SHE NEEDS A LIFT
SAT IN MY CAR ASKED FOR A BEAT
JUST BANG ON THE DASHBOARD SILLY FREAK
STORMED OUT MY CAR TO GO AND GET A TAPE
IT WAS PLANET ROCK SHE SAID YOU SUPER LATE
SOME GUY AFRICA BAMBAATAA WAS A GODFATHER
THE TRIBE I COME FROM KNOWN FOR GANGSTA WALKIN
SHE JUMPED OUT THE CAR STARTED TO DO THE PREP
I JUMPED OUT THE CAR DID A TWO STEP
