Chino XL - B-Boy Intro lyrics

(We made a choice...)

[Intro: Chino XL]

Yo we made a choice

Yo, that uh, our music is worth much more than you know

We hold it very dear to us (that's right)

And as time moves on and we see it slippin away

and y'all try to, pump, that same radio bullshit down our ears

500 thousand times a day (all day)

It just makes us hold on to that underground shit that much stronger

[Chino XL]

Yeah (is it like gold?) Yes!

(Is it like silver?) Yes! (Is it like diamond?) Yes yes yes!

It's like a precious medal when we hear a verbal rebel

murderin 56 bars or more and we hangin on every syllable

And when it's pure (is it like gold?) Yes!

(Is it like silver?) Yes! (Is it like diamond?) Yes yes yes!

It still raises hairs on the back of our neck when I hear a rapper rip

straight from his heart for the respect, not the size of a check

And when it's pure (is it like gold?) Yes!

(Is it like silver?) Yes! (Is it like diamond?) Yes yes yes!

When a beat bangs and reflects what hip-hop was built for

That wack shit y'all spittin back in the day y'all would get killed for

But when it's pure (is it like gold?) Yes!

(Is it like silver?) Yes! (Is it like diamond?)

Yes yes yes [static]
