[Hook] Music don't cry It's time to rise Gather my friends Can you feel the music? [Verse 1] It gets inside me like a venom, I begin to tremble Plain and simple, the music is driving my pencil It's time to give to the people something composed with a pa**ion Making bad music go out of fashion, a lovely reaction What's the purpose of all of the lack of talent, we're losing balance We got to salvage the life of the music, too many rappers abuse it And it's causing confusion. Is there art in what we're doing Or do we love that we're ruining music Rappers cover their bad flows with catchy but bad beats But don't be mad at me for pointing out the obvious Everybody can see that what I speak is the truth What we need is some innovation to set the people free From this dull repetitive junk, it bumps but it's still wrong I don't mind getting crunk but I need more You need to change your lyrical ways before MUSIC DIES! [Hook] [Bridge] Music don't cry (Music don't cry) Wipe your tears away (Wipe your tears away) It's time for you to be revived (It's time for you to be revived) And breathe new life, I pray (You'll never fade away) [Verse 2] I want a song that'll vibrate my bones Has a beautiful tone and resonates in my spirit all day long It keeps me strong and standing tall anytime I may fall Never turns away when I call and gives me a place to belong I want a song to lift me up to be my crutch anytime I done been through too much My mind is hush as I listen to the music erupt As if to tell me to keep going and never give up on love [Hook] [Verse 3] It's time to take action and tell these rappers that they need to shape up or ship out And give the crowd a new sound a little profound They shouldn't be allowed to be proud of rapping so loud If they're not endowed with a talent, hip hop needs to rebound I do not need to calm down I don't want the people to drown This is my vow, I'm lifting the shroud The poison that is coming out of your mouth is about to run out So pa** on the crown, and turn around, right now Music needs to live again, so gather my friends And raise your hands, let's put an end To the villain within and stop the sin committed against The lifeline of life and make amends The people are fed up and ready to fight and ignite A light and invite all the poets to recite a lyrical delight That they write, take flight with the wings given to us by the moods that we incite [Hook] [Hook & Bridge] [Hook & Bridge 2] [Bridge 2] It's time to grow, note for note Show the people this is what you know Use the talent that God bestowed Upon you, it is time to show your glow
