BAT SWOOPS DOWN

Like Ledger made Nicholson look like Romero
My style makes a Pterodactyl look like a sparrow
Fly as the violent path of a crossbow arrow
Piercing your bone, going straight through the marrow
I come from the asylum in the bowels of the narrows
I got you in a warehouse strapped to a barrels
Drinkin' nog, rapping holiday carols
While I'm still Rockin' that seasonal, bullet-proof apparel
Living by the plant left y'all punks sterile
Where as I'm avid and virile, rather rabid and feral
I bust through the sentries at the gate
Now I'm gonna heavily precipitate
With raging winds that crush your bones beneath your skin
Upon these banks is an ancient temple
In the burial grounds we'll assemble
A languid silence upon the doomed
To be continued or to be entombed
That is the question, MC Rises, court is in session
And my court is a court of no fun
(On with the procession!)
Your rap is a bore, elementary rhyming
Confined to the 4/4 timing
Blue square chumps, I'm hitting the jumps on a double black diamond
Widen the sky and revolutionizing
A brand new style, y'all fools get climbin'
Devlinola, I dare you to step to me
Riding the clouds in the storm of the century
Taming the dragon
So why are you bragging about capping a deputy?
I destroyed the whole force and one thousand armies
with my disastrous recipe
Jabronies, fraudulent phonies
You're lackin' flavor even doused in Tony's
I slaughter the whole cow herd with a halberd plus the ponies,
And I chopped your tongue off for speaking a foul word
No, I really can't condone these
mannerless heathens with no respect
Their selfish actions are very deplorable
I'm on the set with a wolf-toothed cudgel
I'm a rap Shao Kahn and I'll smash thou's song
The result was horrible, though perhaps still a bit too subtle

Detained for observation
Broke free from where he was bound
Sights locked in on a location
Then rudeboy bombs up the town

I live day to day by the skin of my teeth
My sword never gets one second to rest in the sheath
At peace, I'm beyond belief or disbelief
These simple quandaries are a falling leaf
In the sea of wonder that I stand beneath
Showers and thunder, pillage and plunder
The village is under, ten feet of water
Head for the high-grounds, All band together
Don't turn savage, Let arrows fly if fiends ravage
When they land it'll boost your average
I carry out courageous deeds
Keep track of 'em on the abacus beads
If from outta the reeds comes a bayou rugaru
Slashing the tires on your Subaru
Don't fear, I'll appear with the silver spear bravely rescuing you
I can accept no reward, I deserve no praise or even applaud
I'm an ordinary man with a few simple talents
I've taken an oath and accepted the challenge
protect the people, defend the planet
Abate the nefarious ones and preserve the balance
