Rap: Rhythm And Poetry
A poetic Hip Hop birthday week tribute to the art of Rapping
🎶Hip Hop hooray. It’s that time of year, or better yet that rhyme of year🎶
🎶Yes the rhyme is here. I’ve come to sell you a rap🎶
🎶That’s rhythm and poetry you can tell it’s a rap🎶
🎶And it’s forever a rap🎶
🎶A flow to get you to the tip top🎶
🎶And it don’t stop it’s the birth week of Hip Hop🎶
🎶Born in the ghetto, descended from the motherland. Then it spreaded to every other land🎶
🎶Hip Hop is every brother’s land🎶
🎶Created by voices of Black boys and girls. Who would’ve thought that it would grow and bring joy to worlds🎶
🎶Rapping kept us alive when we saw death in mere inches. It stretched wide and built bridges with lyrical ridges🎶
🎶Give an emcee a beat and our words will start movin’ your feet. You gotta love this blues of the street🎶
🎶Turn on the radio. Say it fast say it slow. Microphone murderers who make it last and make it grow🎶
🎶Feel my words in your heart from the minute it starts. I’ll break it down slow so you can live it in parts🎶
🎶Rap was born on the street corner. Rhythm and poetry is the weapon we used to defeat corners🎶
🎶Rapping is how we escape the evil cycle where the slugs spray and the drugs lay🎶
🎶Escaping mental battlefields where the thugs play🎶
🎶We hit every region, north, south, east and west🎶
🎶With every lyric said and done you receive the best🎶
🎶Reverberating in a way that’s beyond singing🎶
🎶Rapping voices hit ears and trust me they’ll keep on ringing🎶
🎶There is absolutely no way to get rid of the flow in me🎶
🎶Rap is life. Enjoy this rhythm and poetry🎶
