Rap Is Where It's At

 

jump in the game no here to complain

being busy as a bee in a land of make believe

we shoot for the top but it ends in the flames

let me be the first to explain

I'm staying in the game this is my time

May shoot to the top in my prime or stand in line

Sugar is sweet like honey but I'm going to be the one who brings home the money

Life is funny in its twists and turn one soul soars while the other one burns

we can each learn from our teachers it's not a walk in the park late night double feature

we got to learn to stick close together no matter what the weather

see each of us has a gift we must use or its forgotten

thank God we got to kill that thug Ben Laden

search your heart you got great rhymes inside

don't fall away or try to run away & hide

go slow at first to take up the pace

some folks may think your from outer space

yet what do they know there just jealous you see

many don't even know there A.B.C's

stop spreading the disease it will knock you to you knees

look toward the ocean while you use your magic lotion

take a shot in the dark & someday you will find

you will never be left behind

it all comes down from within deep inside

look at the junkie in the gutter

the mother who doesn't have enough to pay her bills

she turns to cheap thrills to do what she has to do

have we bitten off far more then we could chew

kick it in the shower its your hour of power

in the end you get to make the final decision

it isn't found in some fake front wishing

Rap is where its at your going to make me have a heart attack

the signs are painted all around

listen as you'll hear it's nasty sound
