Hip Hop

[Intro: Locksmith] Oh I'd like to think just a moment And dream my dream Whoa Dream my dream Whoa Yeah, I want to thank everybody For coming out today You could've been anywhere But you're here with me Rappers love to say that shit don't they? Look, yo [Verse 1: Locksmith] I used to think rapping was just an outlet (But I found it) I used to think talent wouldn't amount shit (But I'm grounded) I used to cruise in 6'4 Like Dr. Dre and [?] Before I grew to 6'4' (Hello) I used to want to rap like Nas But when I laid my first track I kinda rapped like [?] Then I studied up on rap And started to back my cause Back my bars Watch my talent stack like cars I had to rely on me And figure out my own plea In love with the rhyme The next time was all eyes on me I started to spit and they started To pick on me like I don't bleed And what do you know I found a niche No surprise on me Still there's love in my heart I don't hate no nigga Sorta like the first time you heard "Ain't no nigga" Gave you a certain vibe That make you want to take a ride Just happy to be alive and stay on pace My nigga From the Bay to LA From LA to NY From NY to the South From down South to the Chi We was drug dealing just to get by Still managed to finish school And fill my mama with pride All drama aside No hesitation I planned it Tried to endear what I revered My maturation from a stand Through dedication I withstand The ills where trauma lies Traumatized Understand I'm hip hop personified (Hip hop personified Drug dealing just to get by I used to want to rap like Nas) (x2)
