Egyptian Rap

Today were singing an ancient Egypt rhyme

It is gunna take all you people back in time 

Ancient Egypt is a place with pyramids and things

They hold shiny jewelry and old dead kings  

These pyramids are houses of eternity

With hidden trap doors for added security

The pyramids are built form large stones

They were used to bury their thrones

  

Twenty years in the making

Pyramid at Giza is the seventh wonder remaining

Pharaohs were people that ruled the land

They had servants that answered their every command 

Needed lots of slave to help through the making

When their kings time is slowly fading

King Tut, Khufu, and Cleopatra

Lived their lives like a soap opera

Murder, betrayal, and wealth

Pharaohs were not always in good health

Hieroglyphics are how they write

To do this they had to be very bright 

The people who write these are called scribes

They did not always have go gibe

Hieroglyphics use figures like animals and people

This is the way they try and make it simple

They used pictures according to the way they sound

Hieroglyphs are how word got around

Their  longest river is the Nile

Used for transportation and their main lifestyle

It is also used for drinking water

Using this made their lives better

The river is used for irrigation

For farming the river was their inspiration

As we come back to reality

We know it’s not the best quality

But we tried with all sincerity

To honor the traditions of this great society

This is the end of our egyptian rap

Make sure at the end you remember to clap
