the bombs began to pour\n  Ten minutes ago I was mad 'cause my stomach was grumbling\n  Now the whole world is crumbling\n\n  I hear people scream across the street gettin' crushed\n  This went on for twenty minutes then the whole world hushed\n  I couldn't see shit but I could feel myself breathin'\n  Damn, I'm still kickin' but I'm just not believin'\n\n  I give thanks to God then I'm off on my mission\n  Ain't no stars in the sky so it ain't no wishin'\n  I wonder, I wonder, I just can't understand\n  Why am I the last man?\n\n  Back in the days, I knew rap would never die\n  Back in the days, I knew rap would never die\n  Back in the days, I knew rap would never die\n  Back in the days, I knew rap would never die\n\n  These crazy thoughts in my head won't stop\n  Where's my moms and my pops and what about hip-hop\n  I'm pickin' up things that could be of use to me\n  To build a makeshift crib where Hollywood used to be\n\n  And it ain't no forties, it ain't no blunts\n  I ain't had no ass in five years and eight months\n  Five more years pass and I still survive\n  And I'm through with wonderin' who's still alive\n\n  Until one day I'm just walkin' along\n  And I hear this kid singin' a hip-hop song\n  He said, \"That's the way it is and it's like that\"\n  I said, \"Yo kid c'mere, where you learn that song at?\"\n\n  He said, \"My daddy taught me about the hip-hop game\n  I'm eight years old and Rakim is my name\"\n  He said, \"Yo I'll take you to him, come follow me\n  But first you gotta prove that you can MC\"\n\n  So I cleared my throat got in a b-boy stance\n  And I ran through a rhyme that made him piss in his pants\n  With tears in his eyes, he grabbed me by the hand\n  And then we ran, ten miles across the sand\n\n  He took me to the spot, dig deep underground\n  Where I can hear the sound of the big bass pound\n  I wasn't really sure but I swore we smelled blunt smoke\n  No joke loc, well can I get a toke?\n\n  He took me to his pops and he handed me a spliff\n  And out behind the wall came Tash and E-Swift\n  They took me to a freestyle session it was on\n  I knew hip-hop would never be gone\n  Five hundred hip-hop deep\n  Yo, we cool in 2014, Alkaholiks still rulin'\n\n  Back in the days, I knew rap would never die\n  Back in the days, I knew rap would never die\n  Back in the days, I knew rap would never die\n  Back in the
