Tech N9ne, Brotha Lynch Hung - This Is Hip Hop lyrics

When I say "Tech", you say "N9ne!"
Tech (N9ne) , Tech (N9ne)

This is hip-hop
It's country, jazz and R&B and it's pop
It's rock and roll and yeah
Never will it stop
So ain't no way you stoppin' this hip-hop
Hip-hop this is hip-hop
It's country, jazz and R&B and it's pop
It's rock and roll and yeah
Never will it stop
So ain't no way you stoppin' this hip-hop
Hip-hop this is hip-hop

What is livin' on 904 Michigan?
What is havin' roaches and
Trouble findin' more dividends?
Dyin' a poor citizen
What is bars in the door to seal us in
War kill us men, tryin' for your kid again


What is savin' your pay to go
Stay in a available place
In the way 'cause you ain't paying no janx
When the Yate makes a way to rotate
What is weight in your safe? So
We can stay in your race
Lay 'em on tape invading your state
With this pain in your face
What is the door slam? They
Ain't with the program
The bidness give a damn, you go HAM
You giving 'em more stamina
What is having a manager bookin'
Many shows to go jam? What is at the bottom?
They don't really gotta
What is in a column without
Another who stopped him
Dropped him, popped and chop
Him, what is summer, spring and autumn?
What is dope and to the top
And shot him what is poverty?
What is acknowledging a prodigy?
What is the dichotomy of this
Good and bad anthology?
What is lads that follow
The sad path Sickology?
What is livin' life low
Then livin' like you hit the lottery

This is hip-hop
It's country, jazz and R&B and it's pop
It's rock and roll and yeah
Never will it stop
So ain't no way you stoppin' this hip-hop
Hip-hop this is hip-hop
It's country, jazz and R&B and it's pop
It's rock and roll and yeah
Never will it stop
So ain't no way you stoppin' this hip-hop
Hip-hop this is hip-hop

When I first heard the beat
It gave me the vision that if the
Mayan calender was correct and in 2012
The world was actually destroyed
When a new civilization forms and they
Get to diggin' they find this
And this will be a perfect way to
Start off the new hip-hop culture
You know what I'm sayin'?
We're two murderers lyrically
You know what I'm sayin'? It'd be crazy
Strange, baby!

What is gettin' off the X
And writin' an album?
What is being put in the middle like Malcolm?
Sicker than sarcoidosis i eat Carrion
I got body parts in my Carry-On
That's when the party starts, nigga
I'm very hung
Been rippin' up niggas since I was very young
Scary-lookin' motherfucker
Ready to kill your daddy's mom
Ready to eat that meat with a meat cleaver
I creep in the streets and defeat these
Eat these niggas up hot
Shittin' out their feces
Put a knife in their nieces
At least he's younger, hunger, dinner
He sees thunder, one nut in her
He sees baby, doctor visit
He spills rabies in his lyrics
Put her in the back with the flat tire
I'm fire 'till I retire
I tie her up and then fry her up
And then give her to the higher up
Tech N9ne intertwine, get out the wine
This is my kind of hip-hop

This is hip-hop
It's country, jazz and R&B and it's pop
It's rock and roll and yeah
Never will it stop
So ain't no way you stoppin' this hip-hop
Hip-hop this is hip-hop
It's country, jazz and R&B and it's pop
It's rock and roll and yeah
Never will it stop
So ain't no way you stoppin' this hip-hop
Hip-hop this is hip-hop

To all my youngsters out
There listening to this:
Find some sort of education or understanding
Of life and how it was
And then try to find out how you
Can continue to grow this thing
And better this thing and take this
Thing to higher heights with
More knowledge and more conviction to
Preserve this thing called hip-hop!
