Love Hip Hop

[Intro]
[Male]
Born in the Bronx
[Female]
Feel that heat
[Male]
Eight-one-one-seventy-three
[Female]
Move your feet
[Male]
Born in the Bronx
[Female]
Love that swing
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop

[Verse 1]
[Male]
From block parties
To the backroom wall
[Female]
From painted names
To the bass drum call
[Male]
Kids turned pain
Into a harder smile
[Female]
Turned one good night
Into a whole new style
[Male]
Steel on the floor
And a stamp on the beat
[Female]
Hands in the air
When we cross that street

[Pre-Chorus]
[Male]
Hear the pride in the drum
[Female]
Hear the night come alive
[Male]
Every face, every step
[Female]
Makes the old scene rise
[Both]
Come on, come on
Let it stay like this
Come on, come on
Feel that Bronx night kiss

[Chorus]
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop
[Female]
From the Bronx to the block
[Male]
We never stop
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop
[Female]
Old school heart, new school spark
[Male]
Make that floor ignite
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop
We dance all night

[Verse 2]
[Female]
Minor notes twist
Like a wire in rain
[Male]
Sweet and strange
With a little bit of pain
[Female]
Heads go low
Then they snap right back
[Male]
Feet hit hard
On a clean white track
[Female]
Caribbean fire
In the pattern and swing
[Male]
Bronx-born truth
When the whole room sings

[Pre-Chorus]
[Female]
Hear the pride in the drum
[Male]
Hear the night come alive
[Female]
Every face, every step
[Male]
Makes the old scene rise
[Both]
Come on, come on
Let it stay like this
Come on, come on
Feel that Bronx night kiss

[Chorus]
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop
[Female]
From the Bronx to the block
[Male]
We never stop
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop
[Female]
Old school heart, new school spark
[Male]
Make that floor ignite
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop
We dance all night

[Bridge]
[Male]
Not a fad
Not a phase
[Female]
It’s a name we praise
[Male]
Four letters, one pulse
[Female]
Through the crowd it stays
[Both]
Side by side
We claim that flame
Say it loud
Say that name

[Final Chorus]
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop
[Female]
From the Bronx to the block
[Male]
We never stop
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop
[Female]
Old school heart, new school spark
[Male]
Make that floor ignite
[Both]
Love hip hop
Love hip hop
We dance all night
