Chorus
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
Verse 1
No i'm not number 1 cuz i'm in my own category/
The perfect blend of evident and allegory/
The perfect supplement to this triumphant story/
Of black renaissance and its ascent to glory/
Academics like to call it double-consciousness/
I call it melanin-induced confidence/
I call it representing every continent/
And making sure those asleep are now cognizant/
Not really a rapper but limits don't occur to me/
Graduated 1st—ripshop university/
They're tryna figure out which box to put me in/
I told them pick any one and i'll make it bend/
Whether in the ghetto or at the symphony/
I carry my naps like wives carry tiffany/
They call it inappropriate i call it history/
Making black as legit as becky's sanctity/
This for my peoples' that twerk but still read/
This for my posse that's bright but smoke weed/
This for them eyes too limited to see/
That black is just as michelle as cardi b/
That black is just as lupita as it is me/
That black never gets in with the keys/
That before we can grow we must receive/
All the forms we're blessed to conceive/
Chorus
It's hip hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
Verse 2
Let your tongue form the smooth sounds of ebonics/
And when they ask why, tell 'em that your culture's chronic/
Sicker than the flu but even better yet iconic/
Unlike the people tryna copy it—how ironic/
If ethnic ain't professional enough for the corporate/
Don't assimilate, instead readjust the orbit/
Put your fro in the center of it and absorb it/
And come wash day, throw that ish in the toilet/
And yes just as real eyes realize/
Recognize that negro eyes, negroize/
Put respectability politics aside/
And replace it with a strong stride of black pride/
As your ears consume this opera mixed with rap/
Note where the world is lacking and then fill the gap/
Now grab your neighbors hand and join in as we make a pact/
To never let our wish to fit in compromise our black/
Bridge
I know my history is excellence personified/
And if i do embrace it then that greatness will be multiplied/
I promise to reach out to my brethren who forego the mission/
If it's cuz they're scared of darkness, give it a new definition/
I know black was made to represent all that's bad and evil/
Only cuz power this profound had to be illegal/
Attempts to subdue my spirit are an act of violence/
I'll speak loud for every long century my voice was silenced/
Chorus
It's hip hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
Chorus
It's hip hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
It's hip-hopera
