Living Legends - Gift Wrap lyrics

I'm about to give you that
I love Hip-Hop feeling
I'm about to give it to you
I said I'm about to give you
That I love Hip-Hop feeling
I'm about to give it to ya

The same one I had when I first bumped Tribe
Or the vibe that you felt
Taking that Bizarre Ride
I'm gonna put it in the mix
For your own ears to hear
I was a young buck then and feel I've
Got a lot of years to go i'm from the O
I felt it through $hort to Hiero
Had my Walkman on everywhere that I'd travel
I'd always babble and quote
What other people wrote
Use it as a theme or rule
And that was cool for me
Worked it like a tool for me
They thought I was a fool to be
White and writing raps
They thought that I was acting
But, I was just stacking up
My skill being real feeling how I feel and
Expressin' how I'm stressin'
Now it's my profession and I'm
Wanting y'all to know
The love that I've got for
This Hip-Hop only grows

The best that we can's better
Than a lot of them when I meet a Legends fan
It's just like another friend
It's the feeling that we give
The music that we live
Negative positive, how you live how you live
Positive memory of what you see
I try to give and be
Inspiration for those who try to
Come after them or we
Bass lines that pull you in from outside
Or inside or online
When we rhyme it's funtime!
Hands up, stand up, watch me deliver
With delivery and presence
Surpassing your ability
Tranquility is silence when
Violence dominates
If you're the murderers why would
I buy the tape? Self incrimination
Self destruction to the nation
Fascination with this death? Oh
My I'm losing patience
I got into this music cause I
Feel y'all listening to radio
Damn they tryin' 2 kill y'all

I remember the first time I
Heard a dope ass rhyme yes a fresh ass verse
Or the first time on this earth
I had this thirst
To give it to ya like birth
A piece of my soul more precious than gold
I'm in the crowd man
I'm not too old to give it up
If it's tight I can get wit it
Rush to the store and go get it
Bump it if it's slumpin'
Hope the lyric's sayin' somethin'
Intellectual, make the beat sound so flexible
I give it to ya like a piece of my mind
Give breath over this beat
With mic control refined
Give ya substance when you
Have nothin' to hold
You can feel this like you're
In the front row!

It's like oooo weee
You'd be a fool not to feel
This beat knocking out your trunk
Like Mike Tyson with a steel fist
While most of these MCs was
Out on a field trip
My crew stayed in the lab
See we never had permission to slip
My mission to rip every mic that I'm on
Rap niggas being nice
But, I remember last year
They wasn't liking my song
Now I got a couple fans
I'm making cool hit's like ice in a bong
Got their bitch on my dick
She looks nice in a thong
And I'm about to give her that
"I love this cock feeling"
And that may be fucked up
But, I'm right when I'm wrong
That's don't get along with
Funny style rap chaps
Who lack the same feeling
That I had way back and
Still keep to this day
When I used to stay up late
Just to dub Tech and Sway
But now I got my own wax
And I can't get no play
