What is Hip-Hop?

[Hook]

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin'

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin-fallin'

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin'

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin' a-

[Verse 1: KRS-One]

It's always a privilege to spit with Lars

I'm a reality speaker, forget them cars

I'm learning how to teleport to reach to Mars

When you love this to live this, you spit your bars

I spit a quick barrage switch to Rs

Before you get burnt by all these lit cigars

I spit because the time is upon us

Prophecy: Edgar Cayce, Nostradamus

Are they in the future or really far behind us?

Past perceptions trying to find us and blind us

Topical, poetically philosophical

Today's education is unappliable

I think with my abdominal, life is phenomenal

You make it all up with your optical

Every moment is optional

That means anything I think in a blink is possible

[Hook]

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin' a-

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin' apart! (can't you tell me)

Every-Everything's fallin' apart! (can't you tell me)

Every-Every-Everything

[Verse 2: MC Lars]

What is Hip-Hop? Is it what you wear?

Is it the brands that you rep or the way you wear you hair?

Is it your attitude, gratitude, identity or fate?

Your history, your future or the problems that you face?

Is it the spirit of the times? The Zeitgeist, believe it

Divinity inside of me, we breathe it cause we need it

The Gospel of Hip-Hop, it really changed my life

KRS relieved the stress - I had to read it twice

When it all falls apart I remember what he said

It's not about the cheddar, cream, fame, skill or bread

Its's the karma, truth and beauty, learning to respect

Learning how to love, putting selfishness in check

What is Hip-Hop? Divine self-discovery

Mastering the elements, defining just what love can be

Testifying truthfully, rhyming with the best

I see the light, it feels so right cause hip-hop's got me blessed

I stay up, even when everything's falling apart

[Hook]

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin' a-

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin' apart! (can't you tell me)

Every-Everything's fallin' apart! (can't you tell me)

Everything's fallin' a-

[Verse 3: Rittz]

Yeah, you fuck on me your whole career is gonna fall apart

Servin' rappers individually, a la carte

Who got an open menu, nobody cool and don't pretend you

Ain't feelin' this, I'm killing shit, please don't continue

To hate, It's safe to say I'm one of the hottest rapping

Hotter than wasabi dressing, hot like the Mojave Desert

I fuck your bitch, my homie got the sloppy seconds

I got her legs in the air kickin' like she taking karate lessons

Rittz you got a second? Nah bitch, I'm kinda busy

My grind is grizzly, the timing is the

Key to everything, impeccably my timing is oh so sublime

You've heard this slow shit now back to the double time

I was ripping the microphone when I was young and I stepped up  as I kicked butt

I was losing my mind in depression off half of a pack of the stiff dope

Every bitch that I dated I hated and then pray for the day that I get fucked

They say that they were just sick of, rapping the shit that they get to

Fall apart (apart)

[Hook]

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin' a-

Everything's fallin'

Every-Everything's fallin' apart! (can't you tell me)

Every-Everything's fallin' apart! (can't you tell me)

Everything's fallin' a-

[Verse 4: mc chris]

What is Hip-Hop? It's the sound that a bunny makes

Today's Hip-Hop might leave a funny taste

Flavor that you savor is a little artificial

Pinky-wink twinkies got no filling in the middle

Keep it simple. Follow the Hip-Hop commandments

Keep it real. Represent like our fucking dads' did

Our elders, our betters, the ones who did it first

Pioneers are outta here, stars about to burst

It's up to the descendants and I ain't talking dirty sheets

I am what I am even though they want to murder me

They just pissed because I'm true to the art form

Make a loud sound like a fucking car horn

True to my rhymes cause that shit pays off

I'm my own boss, can't be laid off

No clock to punch, no breaks to take

What is Hip-Hop? Non-stop mistakes
