I AM HIP HOP - Bryson Gray

I am hip hop

Aight, listen

I strive for perfection

I can't accept lesser

They keep trying to cancel me

I expect better

They want me to take an L but even if I don't make a M I'm still going N like the next letter

Okay let's get busy

Not Conner McDavid but you know I keep a stick with me

They want me to slip like I'm on ice, that's where it gets tricky

I just hope all the real supporters gon' stick with me

No investors, built everything from the ground up

We the one's with the wave, why they tryna drown us?

Almost 100 million streams if you round up

People diss me 'cause they fell off, oh that sounds tough

What's the reason people don't follow me?

Oh I criticize Trump or I'm against sodomy?

We letting the mentally ill change biology

Democrat, Republican, I reject the dichotomy

Some always support, some only do when it's a trend

Some people only share my song when it's viral again

Some people only follow because they plot for my end

Some people feel convicted because I call out their sin

I keep getting reported by people that I offend

Persecution is expected so I take that on the chin

It's not about me makin' cash or riding in a Benz

It's about the only son, he the reason we gon' win (Ahh)

He the reason we gon' win (Huh)

Say he the reason

I am hip hop

I got dissed lots

Keep a Smith in case they tryna do me like I'm Chris Rock

Unless you repent 'cause you headed to Hell if not

Bad guy, villan, paint me as the outlaw

I make music for the lions I can't speak about y'all

Radio stopped playin' me but I did it without y'all

I'm tryna wake everybody up like a loud dog

I don't have to brag, you judge by the fruits

They say I'm mean because I give tough love to the youth

If you young be a stout 'cause they want you dumb, it's the truth

If you give up guns what's the use?

That's why I come in the booth

They send death threats gotta nod or [?]

They want all this control but I won't secome to abuse

Sin

Sin

They want you to sin

They don't want our boys to grow up being men

They want women in makeup so they can all pretend

Children out of wedlock, the cycle starts again

They want you in the matrix and they tryna lock you in

But The Father wants you in Christ 'cause he the reason we gon' win (Ahh)

He the reason we gon' win (Huh)

He the reason

I am hip hop
