An ode to the first human organism on Earth. The beat was made my DOPETONES. You can find his beats here at www.soundcloud.com/dopetones.


Lyrics:


1.6 Million years old
From me her story’s about to be told
Louis Leakey, the explorer
Discovered her back in ‘74
Was she ape or was she man?
Can she walk? Yes she can
She was an ape who walked on two legs
Tanzania was where she stayed
The key to bipedal humanity
Was this important discovery
She wasn’t a predator she was prey
Maybe she wouldn’t see another day
Lucy was indeed her name
Walkin’ upright was her claim to fame
Better watch out for Dinofelis
If they were still living, they might kill us
They lived in troops, ate nuts and seeds
A type of ape or human breed?


She’s the missing link who left anthropologists bewildered
How did she die? We’ll never know, Mother Nature might’ve killer her
Natural causes or she was hunted
Leaving her remains quite disgruntled
A missing link that she is
It makes her life quite mysterious
Paleontologists put her on display
So the public eye could have a say


Yeah…


Lucy, Lucy can you hear this song?
Were we right or were we wrong?
Are you the precursor to homo sapiens?
Humanoid organisms we keep studyin’
Needin’ to find a hypothesis, a solution
Need to come to some conclusion
This scientists gonna uncover your grave
If only earlier you could’ve been saved
Bones hardened by limestone minerals
Skeptics deny her existence, they’re cynical
But she was real, she originated us
Because she was an Australopithecus
Without her, we wouldn’t be here, kick this jam into ya ear
Bump the speakers, blast this beat
Promote this prehistoric feat
Before I bring this beat to a close

Was this a school project? Just work on timing and delivery, but I feel smarter after listening to this haha. Nice shoutout at the end, way to give props to the producer.

Hutchmeow316 responds:

No. It wasn't a school project. This just happens to be something I like to rap about. I'm still working on my timing and delivery. I consider myself a pretty good MC.
