Man it's almost 2010, how 2009 flew
the year of the ox gave us recession and swine flu
the world was celebrating coz Obama's in the house
8 years since 9/11 still Osama isn't found,
Wake Up, it was the year of the blog, twitter and podcast
and what were you doing when you heard the king of pop passed
Brittany Murphy died and that was not predicted
Swayze stopped dancing, Jade Goody got evicted
and hiphop lost some legends from the cross fader
Mr Magic, DJ AM and Roc Raida
Plus Baatin from Slum Village, rest in peace
best albums this year, i'd say the Mos Def release
Em was relapsing, plus MF Doom was sick
so was Q-Tip and the 2nd part of Cuban Linx
Royce destroyed it and I int finger pointing
Ive just got to be real, Blueprint 3 was disappointing
just like the summer, it lasted for about 3 days
even though they told us to get ready for a heatwave
global warming was a hot topic, climate-gate
by the way, when the cats away we learned the tiger plays
music charts stayed weak and every number one
was waist til rage burst through and broke the cumberbund
England qualified, followed by so many more
moments that just wont fit in to a single 24
