[Intro 1]
[D][A][D][G]
[D][F#m][Bm][Em]
[E]
[Bm]This is the

[Verse 1]
[A]clap,
put your hands to[Em]gether for this [G]rap
It's [D]unity through music with
a [F#m]peace sign, fuck a strap
In [Bm]fact,
we puttin' our hands together for a [Em]cause
We [E]breakin' the laws [Bm]of physics
when the [F#m]crowd gave us a pause
[A]With the drama,
yo mama taught [G]you better
All [D]the meathead dudes in [F#m]front,
we havin' fun, so chill your weather
It's [Bm]a party through art,
so part of the hype -ness
We just like this [F#m]energy from
the start to the finish
Don't hate, just [A]roll,
we make the music that [G]comes right from the soul
These [F#m]kids are bouncin' around,
but we got everything under control
See the [Bm]world's a learnin' thing,
got chewed by the simple act of a clap
At a [Em]hip -hop show anywhere across the [F#m]globe,
watchin' these acts
All [A]races in a mix, transfixed
All the [G]faces of these
[D]kids who came to [F#m]see
The quality of positivity [Bm]and feel the bass
In case you hadn't known,
[Em]it's not all about the mainstream
Negativ[Bm]ity that you [F#m]spot on
TV driven into your dome
Ris[G]en up from the comb,
to [D]rip it up with [F#m]a poem
And give it up from the heart,
all [Bm]these poets from the underground
Doing it for the [D]art, so [A]clap your [F#m]hands,
clap your hands
You [A]just [Gdim]call it homie, I'll be [G]there
[F#m]Two hands together,
I know you can't see where
[Bm]We can take it f[D]urther than th[Em]ey can
Can you clap to this?
Go on an[F#m]d do it again
[Em]Make em [A]clap [C#dim]to this[G]
[D]Make em clap [F#m]to this
[Bm]Make em clap, clap, clap,
[E]clap, [Em]clap, clap [E]to [F#m]this
The [Em]symbolism of [A]two hands put
to[Em]gether is the [G]topic
Ob[D]tain that unification so there's
[F#m]no way we can drop it
My [Bm]optic can spot the future
within the gatherings
That [Em]are peaceful on [Bm]the lot,
the [F#m]stage, the platform
In [A]the days of rage,
when war is on [G]the doorstep
Put your [D]hands together for peace,
at least we can [F#m]make some noise
And [D]show the world how to slay
the beast [Bm]and say the feast is over
Is [Em]a lie, but I re[F#m]fuse to die
[Em]in a hellfire [F#m]of pride
[A]Why do people lose their minds
to find [G]their answers?
[D]Loading the globe [F#m]with weapons,
hoping to step in on the cancer
With the [Bm]will to kill, I do not feel that [Em]crap
I'd rather be at a hip -hop show
and see the people [F#m]clap
You [A]just [Gdim]call and homie, I'll be[G] there
[F#m]Two hands together,
I know you can't see where
[D]We can [Bm]take it [D]further than [Em]they can
Can you clap to this?
Don't wanna do it again
Make a clap [A]to this
[G]Make a, [D]make a clap to [F#m]this
[Bm]Make a clap
Make a, make a [E]clap
Make a clap [F#m]to this
[A]Unboy your fist,
put your fingertips [G]however
[D]Spread out [F#m]your arms an[D]d bring
them back [F#m]together
[Bm]Let's get free and do this
with [Em]each other
[E]Mentally, [Bm]there's so much[F#m]
you can discover
I'ma let all my thoughts get hit,
[A]meet you at [G]the 2 and the [D]4
Combining [F#m]forces,
we kicking down blockades [Bm]galore
I stock the serum in
[Em]the palm of my hand
Power [E]steering,
they hear him and [F#m]he's crawling the [A]land
Partner
C's for bumper heads [G]an d
G's
[D]None percent [F#m]of me is enemy,
so be at ease
Write [Bm]your name up on the wall,
claim it, [Em]no shaming that at all
You [F#m]bang with good i[A]n tention,
[F#m]that's raw
We [A]all making noise with what we got,
well [G]that's beautiful
[D]Man, [F#m]you ain't got a lot,
freak what's usable [Bm]I speak the truth to all, didn't climb to
[Em]the roof to crawl
[E]Every line's for your [F#m]mind to see
So?
[A]Well, I thought so,
draw what [G]you got so
[D]We can spread [F#m]ideas like the clap in this
culture don't [Bm]topple
Bet they wanted to stop [Em]though,
show em that's
[A]an awful sug[F#m]gestion
Put your hands together and bless [A]them,
for
they know not what [G]they do
They go [F#m]1, 2, 1, 2, 1, [Bm]2, 1, 2, 1, 2[D],[F#m]
1, 2, [A]1, 2, [G]1,[D][F#m][Bm][E]
[F#m]You just call i[A]t homey [Em]I'll be the[G]re
[D]Two hands to[F#m]gether I know you
can't see where
[Bm]We can take it further than th[E]ey
can can you [F#m]clap to this
[Em]Dont want [F#m]to do it again
[Em]You just c[G]all it h[Em]omey I'll [G]be there
[F#m]Two hands together I know you
can't see where
[Bm]We can take it f[D]urther than th[Em]ey
can can you clap to this
Don't want [F#m]to do [A]it again
I think [Gdim]we did i[G]t again[D]
Genie here to lend you [F#m]a hand[Bm]
People come [F#m]to gether,
let's take a [E]stand
If it [A]ain't on beat, don't [Bm]clap to it, [Em]man
If it [C]ain't on beat, don't
[G]clap to [D]it, man[F#m][Bm]
But if [E]it is, let me [Em]hear them hand[F#m]s
Here [A]it goes
Let me hear them hands
[G]Here [D]it goes
Let me hear your hands
[F#m]Here g[Bm]oes[Em][E]
