Proof - Knice lyrics

[Announcer]

What up Detroit,

I'd like to welcome everybody to the,

First Annual Detroit Hip-Hop Recognition Awards.

Secondly I'd like to thank you for coming out

And supporting all of our events this year,

Especially the Awards show,

That means a lot to us. [Proof 1]

The vision behind the Award show,

Is to recognize our own,

Talents, feats and accomplishments,

Both locally and nationally.

With the community a part of the success of people like,

Eminem, D12, Obie Trice, Slum Village, Fat Cat,

Sick Notes, Fat Killers, Almighty Dreadnaps,

Raw C and Silent Riot, just to touch on a few.

The first award wie'll be presenting tonight,

Is the Hip-Hop Recognition Award [Proof 2]

This Award is to recognize

The individual for outstanding support of Detroit Hip-Hop.

When I think of that,

One person stands out without a doubt.

From the days of the Hip-Hop shop,

To the days of multi-platinum record sales,

You'll see this guy on MTV Wednesday night,

Then you'll catch him at St.Andrews Hall Friday night hosting a battle. [Proof 3]

He's been around the world,

And still finds time to get back to the city.

That being said, it's both a pleasure and an honour,

To present the first Annual Hip-Hop Recognition Award [Purple Pills starts playing],

To none other than my man, Big, Proof!

[Proof 1]

Pssh, Damn man,

My city love me, I love my city man.

I feel like I'm lettin' 'em down,

I done so much,

But don't feel like I've accomplished, nothin' at all.

[Proof 2]

Hip-Hop...

I remember when me 'n' Hip-Hop first fell in love man,

Detroit and Hip-Hop, damn, pssh.

[Proof 3]

Psh, eh. 'Cause I aint changin' for shit.

I'ma always be me.
