They say hip hop is dead, so now we spit from the graves
we only sayin what people think, which is what makes them simply amazed
so put the flowers and gifts down, raps just fading away
to late to try and save it, we already past tha stage
just look to the future try to resurrect the dead in the booth
images of Pun pac and biggie, Jam J Big L an Proof
and when you capture that magic, you know these words where the truth
so no hip hop aint really dead, its just hooked up 2 an IV
so we gottta spit louder and harder, open you eyes more widly
imagination must be more syphisticated, a raps tied more tightly
we must all pull 2getha do anyfin, to stop that dreaded R..I..P !
