Lit - Hop
Baba Brinkman

This is just a linguistic attempt to achieve

The effects of chemical ecstasy without the spiritual leprosy

Or physical lethargy; it’s lyrical lechery

‘Cause you feel it comin’ on to you, so listen and see

Why the mixin’ of this delicate recipe is literally

What I feel like I was born to do; yes indeed

I’m bringin’ the heat, but I’m givin’ it that unique feelin’ of intimacy

MCs are dealin’ with so many difficulties, like even illiteracy

So listen to me, and if you only listen to criminals speak

I’ll flip it in Criminalese like Immortal Technique

Turn off the television and read, you little freaks!

‘Cause lit-hop for me isn’t just a figure of speech

Sh-yeah, I live it and breath it; that’s why I rap better than Jesus

‘Cause I’m so deep in this lyrical thesis, I feel like

A religious extremist; yeah, you better believe it

‘Cause if I said it I mean it, unless it was facetious

Well I seen this vision of Hip-Hop

Once when I was dreamin'

It was ressurected lost lyrical genius

And as long as Lit-hop is breathin'

I'm still believin'

Well I seen this vision of Lit-hop

Once when I was dreamin'

It was ressurected lost lyrical genius

And as long as Hip-hop is breathin'

I'm still believin'

You wanna know how I started this lit-hop chronicle?

I went to a lot of shows, and I thought hip-hop was so ironical

When I saw so many wannabe MCs all tryin’ to go

After the same kinda cars and clothes and hoes and marijuana smoke

And I thought NOOO! I wanna go, I wanna go to

Enga-laaand! And I heard a whole lotta people

Whingin’ on the subject of hip-hop changin’

And it wasn’t the same as back in the day and I thought to myself, hey

Bring it on! ‘Cause I don’t complain about changes

Some rap crews is tryin’ to go back to the roots of the people they hang with

I’m just tryin’ to go back to the roots of my language, and that’s English

I had to flip the script ‘cause I got sick of rap that’s brainless

MCs claim intellectual when they’ve never read a textbook

And educated professors never wrote a sexy hook

So they remain ineffectual and never get successful

And you now you’re listenin’ to the only one who’s ever repped both

Well I chose

To leave rap alone and get a Master's

So I could capture the most cinematic scope

And that's when it turned into a fashion show

Well this is the antidote

And I don't wanna teach any classes after shows

I just want put a coupl of classic quotes in my tracks

And maybe let the masses know

How to challenge the status quo

Well I seen this vision of Hip-Hop

Once when I was dreamin'

It was ressurected lost lyrical genius

And as long as Lit-hop is breathin'

I'm still believin'

Well I seen this vision of Lit-hop

Once when I was dreamin'

It was ressurected lost lyrical genius

And as long as Hip-hop is breathin'

I'm still believin'
