I don't have a voice for singing, but I love music. So my only luck is that I also love to compose poetry, that sometimes transforms into rap lyrics ( not very good ones sometimes), but it is the only way that I can connect with a wish that cannot come true.
So, yes, I truly believe that rap is poetry and poetry is rap.
