Happy V-Day

02.14.2012 · Posted in musings

Happy Valentine's Day! In honor of the occasion, here's my love letter to hip-hop. This is from my upcoming promotional video that's still in editing, but in light of some recent events I wanted to share this now. Thank you very much for your support.


LYRICS:

they is bizzles--they be actin like they real when they ain't/ they aint changin the game, they chill in the paint/

no outside shot, only doin what's expected/ go head and prove me wrong I'll gladly stand corrected/

recognize and respect it, this has been interjected/

they wasn't payin attention and the ball got intercepted/

it is called make the music that you would wanna hear/ you can spend your bars making love to your cars/

or you could help us all travel past Mars, be the stars/ so...

Verse 2:

I'm Tarica June, I don't be following no freakin templates --you know that already if you listened to my mixtape

if you didn't, get your sh*t straight, get to downloading, I ain't holding up, this ain't waiting/

for them to come and recognize it/ it's better than what came before any way that you size it/

up...that's the direction that I'm goin in, they lookin at me like ...
