Some people out there givin' rap a bad name But as the young people say, I ain't down with that
Rap music, the sound of the times Ya sorta talk lyrics to rhythm and rhyme And then deliver in the various ways You know, some sorta preachin', and some sorta play Nevertheless, there's some common ground Ya know the def hip hop sound Hyped up bass and the tiny snare The subwoofer makes your neighbor stare Hey but
I luv rap music I always have, and I always will

I luv rap music I always have, and I always will There's no other kinda music in all the world That can make me feel quite as chill
