Apollo Piero - This One's for Hip Hop Lyrics

I spit it for the old folks that never gave rap a chance
For the government that never gave blacks a chance
For the average man and the underdog
For the voice of the people, let it rumble dogg
For the racists, crooked cops, crooked cases
The mountain top lands and the cold water glaciers
Good gracious, I spit it for salvation
This rap game is aching, I got to get it baking
I can make it, I can feel it in my fire
These money hungry rappers can't match my desire
I'm applying these lyrics, I'ma use it
Hip Hop's in my blood, man I do it for the music
But it's abused now-a-days the industry
Got every little kid growing up to be a G
Cause its all about the money now and the b**ches
And these rappers don't realize what they're doing to their image
Just reinforcing prejudices that if you're black
You're an ignorant thug and that's just not the facts
Save rap, I spit it on a mission, I'ma get it
Got to do it, get to moving, make a movement, get with it

For the pessimist people that only see the evil, I feel it's time for change
This one's for Hip Hop, for Hip, for Hip Hop, this one's for Hip Hop
For the industry sinners only in it for the figures, I feel it's time for change
This one's for Hip Hop, for Hip, for Hip Hop, this one's for Hip Hop

There's too much, too far that we've come
Just to see it fall to the lust of the gun
Then the son's of our children, still in broke building
Still with harsh feelings, stealing just to live
And the government not making changes cause
They ain't listening to us cause they don't respect us
And the talent ain't there and the message so smeared
And the only way we care is if its from a dude we fear
And they're hearing our music and all that they're saying
It's the same old things with another catchy saying
So they label us, disallow what enables us
To be ourselves by banning all our favorite stuff
And so we trust that somebody come along
To change the whole image putting thought into his songs
For the hip hop culture cause it's missing on those boards
So just listen to my chords man this is what it's for
The talent-less rappers, the hookers and the homeless
The crack fiends doing crack lines on the sofas
In Chinese restaurants on a stolen Motorola
Sippin' on Coronas, high off aromas
I'm trying to paint this pictures have them better than the Mona
Lisa but I need it for they end up in a coma
A soul donor, I give it for this game
I'ma do it with my heart, with my soul, with my brain
So for every rich white girl that called me a wigger
And every racist bastard that used the word
For every politician, every fed, or fedorali
If they try to stop Hip Hop, we all gon rally

For the pessimist people that only see the evil, I feel it's time for change
This one's for Hip Hop, for Hip, for Hip Hop, this one's for Hip Hop
For the industry sinners only in it for the figures, I feel it's time for change
This one's for Hip Hop, for Hip, for Hip Hop, this one's for Hip Hop

For the pessimist people that only see the evil, I feel it's time for change
This one's for Hip Hop, for Hip, for Hip Hop, this one's for Hip Hop
For the industry sinners only in it for the figures, I feel it's time for change
This one's for Hip Hop, for Hip, for Hip Hop, this one's for Hip Hop
