The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

[Some people out there givin' rap a bad name

Well I'm here to let you know, we ain't down with that]

Rap music, the sound of the times

Ya sorta talk lyrics to rhythm and rhyme

And then deliver in various ways

You know, some sorta preach, and some sorta play

Nevertheless, there's a common ground [word!]

Ya know the def hip hop sound

Hyped up bass with a tiny snare

The subwoofer makes ya neighbor stare

But still

(interlude)

I luv rap music

I always have, and I always will

Now rap started as the voice of the street

A sorta politics to a ghetto beat

Then rappers started braggin' all about their gold

And the girlies, and the beepers

And the big, black Olds-mobile

In '83, the beatbox hit

Makin' funky drum sounds from out ya lips

But takin' on nu forms, rap has moved from the block

Now some mix it with soul and some mix it with rock

Ya know

(chorus)

I luv rap music

I always have, and I always will

There ain't no other kinda music in all the world

That makes me feel quite as chill

I luv rap music

Ya know, it's sittin' on the top of my list

So if ya wanna hang with me, ya better believe

We'll be jammin' to a hip hop mix

Concert time in my part of the town

Ya know, I brought my mom cause I knew she was down

She was flat groovin', but couldn't understand

How they makin' music when there ain't no band

And then she cried, "James," everybody stared

She heard a James Brown sample and thought he was there

She got home, shook her head and said,

"Kids these years"

But then again, we think the Beatles were weird

I luv rap music

I luv rap music

(repeat chorus)

Today some rappers boast, some are makin' me I'll

And those obscene lyrics are overkill

But I started M.C.in' way back in the day

And since then there's been a serious change

Ya know, I asked Christ to come into my heart

And He gave me a brand new start

And on top a dat, He cold gave me my dreams

Doin' hip hop music with a Christian theme

Ya know

(repeat chorus)

I luv rap music

I luv rap music

I luv rap music

I luv rap music
