Hip Hop 101 ft Sweeney
Candy:
The street corners do rattle with a pulse
Where heart beats meet and battle until old
As the day shifts into whats never forgot
With the sweat bubbling to a life of sub-plot
Awards and names merge like a flame that projects
Out of dusty homes only to collect
Times advance as passenger between us
Whilst we bust loose the proof of reality untouched
We dance and we stare as we adopt all foreign
Knowing all welcome in this terrain we belong in
Sweeney:
Ayo...
From Wu-Tang to Bone Thugs, Biggie and Tupac,
life is Hip-Hop or get shot- watch the clips drop.
Warren G and Snoop Dog, Dre and Slim Shady,
got lost in the music while the world went crazy.
Get a beat, in the studio or on the streets,
live the dream or bleed out on the cold concrete.
You're either an artist or a gangster, so pick your paradise,
you can lose your life over fame or a pair of dice.
Life's not fair or nice, but if you play her right,
you can die rich instead of on a stranger's dime.
