I use to love rap and hip hop but now I'm so sick of it( sounds all the same) and so I've been getting into Rock more and more. Can anybody give me some suggestions on what are some good bands or songs that I can listen to?

Awesome decision! You are so right, rock music has much more meaning and creativity--they actually have instruments! Yea, there's some fun hip hop and pop out there but it's not as innovative.
For funky rock: RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS!! (a MUST, cuz you can still dance to it)
Another awesome rock band with a hip hop style is Sublime, so you don't have to completely abandon your roots.
Classic rock: Zeppelin, pink floyd, rolling stones, guns n roses
all awesome!

Whatever you do steer away from the mainstream rock..its all really bad.
I like indie/alt/old stuff
Radiohead, Pavement , Tokyo Police Club, Led Zeppelin, Jefferson Airplane, Bloc Party, U2, The Smiths, The Strokes, Sonic Youth, TV on the Radio, Arcade Fire, The Beach Boys, Velvet Underground.
and.. Girl Talk. its not rock, its more hip hop-ish but it is amazing.

To add to the list folks have provided, I would listen to old AC/DC, Clash, and Ramones for some rock with energy.
