9 Elements

No job just get up call 'em and get 'em

Here's how I'm tellin' it all 9 Elements

We stand in love no we're never failing it

Intelligent No doubt

Hip 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

Rap is something you do

3x Hip Hop is something you live *scratched*

Rap is something you do

Hip Hop is something you live *scratched*

Skaters BMX 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

Hip hop is all about victory over the streets

Some much more than rap so much more than beats

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 education 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

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

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

Hip Hop is something you live
