I Luv Rap Music DC Talk

[Intro: TobyMac, Kevin Max, Michael Tait & Choir]
Some people out there givin' rap a bad name
Well, I'm here to let you know
We ain't down with that
Yeah!
Oh, yeah (Yeah-eah)
A-hey, yeah
Come on

[Verse 1: TobyMac & Michael Tait]
(Rap music): the sound of the times
Ya sorta talk lyrics to rhythm and rhyme
And then deliver in various ways
You know, some sorta preach and some sorta play
Nevertheless, there's some common ground (Word)
Ya know the def hip-hop sound
Hyped up bass with a tiny snare
The subwoofer makes ya neighbor stare
But still I…

[Interlude 1: Choir & TobyMac]
I love rap music
I always have and I always will
Drop it

[Verse 2: TobyMac]
Now rap started as the voice of the streets
A sorta politics to a ghetto beat
Then rappers started braggin' all about their gold
And the girlies and the beepers and the big, black Olds (Mobile)
In '83, the beatbox hit
A-makin' funky drum sounds from out ya lips
But takin' on new forms, rap has moved from the block
Now some mix it with soul and some mix it with rock (Mix it with rock), ya know
