Sixty years and we're still here
Embodying the movement that you fear
So get behind us satan with yo" conservative" tears
Cause it's Martin's dream we hold dear
And when you try to resurrect
your hateful flex
We personify the spirit of the honorable

50 Years 4 your ears
Hip Hop it don't stop
Long live Kool Herc and all who put n the work
Doin' it 4 the culture. Imitated by the vultures
Tryin' to steal what they couldn't feel
The funky drummer breaks on the Wheels Of Steel
The rebellious uprising from the cotton fields
It's all there Were u unaware? Yet u stop and stare at the hair
The walk, the talk, the souls 2 bare
Melodically, hypnotically
Seduced by the experience so it's gotta' be
The knowledge, the graffiti, the dance, the beats, the words
Where were u when u first heard
The feelin', the expression, the power, the call
The tribal street rhythm that now live n us all
On the shoulders of giants we all stand tall
Cause Hip Hop just turned 50 years ya'll

I believe in you
you'll always find a way to make it through
Through the mysteries of another day
Beyond the obstacles that get in the way
And though the road gets lonely at times
With motivation seeming hard to find
I pray these words ring honest and true
Because, my friend
I believe in you

Every belief has a bit of built-in bias
and if left unchecked
It may lead to ignorance, intolerance or even ruin
