Audio Dope

Hip Hop History.

Like most rappers this was inspired by currency,

It's a natural dependency, 

We all have a reason why we listen, 

Our own rockabye, 

That natural high, 

From Tha Pharcyde rapping about the apple of your eye that keeps passing you by, 

To Tupac there to wipe a woman's cry,

Some subliminal,

Some educational, 

The whole reason is to uplift your soul,

Some like to press play and lose control,

Relaxation, 

Vibration, 

Stimulation,

It’s a simple equation, 

Although some like the high in clubs just to get low, 

From midnight marauders looting our ears, 

To D12 rapping about their favorite beers,

Some users can show you how to time travel,

Unravel,

Let me show you how Coolie High feel,

Or NY when the vibe of the tribe was iLL,  

Back when suckas thought they had mass appeal just because they had a record deal,  

Some good headphones can make ya think that you're getting high with cypress hill,

We can go on an audio award tour and make you think that it's real,

Detour down south where UGK started trill,

Pimp C, Bun B, Big Moe tha Bar baby,

Can't forget about the west side where they just wanna ride, 

Snoops 187 it's a lyrical homicide, 

Fly to Midwest where lyrics are best,

Twista and Kanye can show ya how to get her undressed, 

See we all can relate,

From hate to love, 

Like Jay-z rapping about hustlin or the lost ones up above,

Lyric lovers get that overwhelming high when they have to pause and press rewind, 

It's like what the great Jimi Hendrix said “People will have to rely on music to get some peace of mind."
