Hip Hop Saved My Life

One of my favorite songs from Lupe Fiasco's newest album "The Cool" has come out with a video. 'Hip Hop Saved my Life' is the song and I always thought it should be his main single.
Now I hope it gets some radio play.

The song is about a fictional man who wants to be a rapper and how Hip Hop saved him.

Hip Hop has saved a lot of people.
I can remember from all the crappy times in my life where I can put on some music and chill.
I remember learning lyrics in your head and applying them to your current situation.
In my mind with all the lyrics and songs there was always a place to go.
I could always stay in my room and put on music.
I could not imagine life without it.
Also why I am such a lyricist. Without lyrics I dont think its worth it.
With the new emphasize on beats then lyrics is starting to kill me.
It seems that I can hardly relate to some of the new youths. I am still listening to most of my old stuff.
I am actively trying to listen to these new artists.
How can I feel so old and be so young?

I think the world would be sad without music.
I dont think I be here without music. All the bad times I always had some music to listen to. During the down times.
Hip Hop probably saved my life.
I sure music has done the same to others.
