### Verse 1 Born in Tokyo town, where the beats get down, The legend made the underground sound. From the streets to the stage, his message profound, With the fire in his soul, he turned the game around. Social justice in his rhymes, every word a gem, Spitting truth to the youth, like a precious diadem. From early tracks to later hits, his flow’s a slam, Influence lasting long, like an endless jam. ### Hook He's the pioneer, laid the groundwork clear, With a mic in hand, he made the vision near. From the underground rise, to the top of the tier, Legacy forever, in our hearts, we cheer. Verse 2 Organized the camps, where the legends would meet, Biggest events, the pinnacle, no defeat. Top-tier crews made the cypher complete, In the heart of the city, where the rhythms repeat. His events a beacon, for the culture and creed, He led the way, planted the hip-hop seed. From the shadows to the light, with incredible speed, His legacy lives on, in every beat and deed. Hook He's the pioneer, laid the groundwork clear, With a mic in hand, he made the vision near. From the underground rise, to the top of the tier, Legacy forever, in our hearts, we cheer. Verse 3 Battling the illness, but he never lost stride, In the face of adversity, with his spirit wide. He uplifted the scene, and in his heart he’d confide, Every rhyme a revolution, every beat his pride. From his label to his stages, he gave them a place, For the voices of the streets, every color, every race. The godfather, with the lyrical grace, His story in our hearts, time will never erase. Hook He's the pioneer, laid the groundwork clear, With a mic in hand, he made the vision near. From the underground rise, to the top of the tier, Legacy forever, in our hearts, we cheer. Hook He's the pioneer, laid the groundwork clear, With a mic in hand, he made the vision near. From the underground rise, to the top of the tier, Legacy forever, in our hearts, we cheer.
