Hip Hop Rules Lyrics - Ghetto Music: The Blueprint Of Hip Hop (bdp) - Krs One

We need unity in the community 

KRS, hip-hop is one 

Conscious, gangsters, hustlers 

Man 

 

[Chorus] 

Hiiiip-Hop; I'm livin for that 

Hiiiip-Hop; I'm livin for that 

Hiiiip-Hop; I'm doin it for 

Hiiiip-Hop 

 

Yo - we went from nuttin to somethin, bein real and not frontin 

No one was givin us nuttin so we resorted to gunnin 

Growin up and we comin, up the ladder not bummin 

Dodgin warrants and summons, from the cops we were runnin 

Goin to school not for nuttin they teachin lies and assumptions 

And they tell us keep comin, comin to school now for what? When 

Comin back to a system that's whack and really not runnin 

Oh I'm sorry it's runnin, it's not PROPERLY runnin 

It's a conspiracy hear me man it's got to be somethin 

I can get guns faster than I can get an english muffin 

And the black church ain't sayin nuttin 

We on our own cousin, I'm stickin to this 

 

[Chorus] 

 

I'm livin for this hip-hop, I'm spittin for this hip-hop 

I'm givin to this hip-hop, my life is hip-hop 

Culture, and y'all know that 

Hip-Hop in the media, y'all know it's whack 

But just like them dopefiends who keep comin back 

Like the mayor of D.C., buyin Joey's crack 

No disrespect to either one of them but look at that 

Study the metaphors in this rap 

We bigger than crack, but we keep buyin it 

We bigger than rap, but we keep denyin it 

Justice, equality, keep cryin it 

But the only way to get it is to start applyin it 

Fat Joe that's my bro shows 'nuff respect 

Talib, that's my bro, shows 'nuff respect 

50 Cent that's my bro he shows 'nuff respect 

Common! That's my bro he shows 'nuff respect 

Snoop Dogg is my bro showed 'nuff respect 

Dead Prez that's my peeps yo 'nuff respect 

Cassidy's an MC who shows 'nuff respect 

Hip-Hop is one, don't forget 

I'm stickin with this 

 

[Chorus] 

 

I'm livin for that hip-hop culture, shape it like a sculpture 

Touch it why don'tcha, touch it why don'tcha 

Hip-Hop is yours and mine and that's fine 

But hip-hop's culture ain't about just crime 

You caught up in the image and, don't know they rhymes 

You caught up in they bodies and don't know they minds 

So I'm, here to bring the truth in the place 

Like don't think Common won't punch you in your face~! 

And don't think Talib won't hold the heat 

To stop the violence you gotta know your street 

You gotta know who Tanga Reed is 

Fat Joe's a leader, Busta Rhymes a preacher 

KRS-One's a teacher 

But through Cassidy my lessons are quicker to reach ya 

We one community 

I'm talkin about unity, in other words you and me 

I'm with this 

 

[Chorus x2]
