Hip HOp IS,....(POEM)

What is Hip Hop?

The definition of this word is undefinable

Uncontainable, trapped between beats and rhythms of life.

There is no defining meaning to describe such an era that inspires our youth today,

For it is a emotional release and a path of freedom coming our way.

Now don't quote me, this is just from my eyes and from my cries,

Sorrow and forgiveness fulfills the lyrics being displayed on the radio

A new warrior with a mic rises everyday with a competitive flow.

Sedge wick and Cedar is where the birth was given and fore told,

To diss an MC in front of an audience back in the day was a way of being bold.

The tunes intertwine with the struggles, triumphs, accomplishments, and obstacles of life.

For the videos we display portray our way of living life.

If there was ever a message rappers were tryna get across it be to follow your own,

To sum of us, hip hop is our only home.

Now I'm not saying hip hop is shelter for me,

But for some its the sequel to life, maybe even a trilogy.

The epic proportions to break down this word would unravel everything we put together to help build this dynasty up to what it is,

This industry is an art and mosque to the way that we live.

It perspires motivation and confliction,

But the message is so deep that hip hop becomes an addiction.

If there was ever an escape from all the bad, hip hop would be on the list next to Christianity,

And I'm not talking about the hip hop that makes you lose your insanity.

I'm talking about the real shit that makes you open your eyes and say "Damn"

The shit that is difficult but yet so easy to actually understand.

So what is hip hop?

Is it a being,and art, an object, or a fad?

Well my answer to that is that hip hop is,.. Me & you.
