The Last Emperor - Monolith lyrics

[Verse 1] I stare into the face of d**h And the fear that's so obvious Wordplay is the way that I conquer it Shivalry's not dead if the living honor it I send a message to men on all continents And this is my imperial decree To who so ever steals material from me The emcee who comes with new abilities And the same man in king david luther's philistines Cuz when it comes to emcees they leave you No choice but to destroy the embodiment of evil Deadly force against the source of upheavel, that seems to Oppress and bring d**h to my people The way to defy this d**h Is to keep kicking rhymes until there's no rhymes left The emperor takes the form of the giant dredd With the body of a man, and a lion's head And this dence urban jungle of great disorder Cd players, turntables and tape recorders Become the tools that I use to erase the borders Between me and the secret and ancient order That I swore to protect and uphold If you're looking for the bloodiest battle, you've struck gold From young to old, ripe and then rotten I came to drop bombs like osama bin laden Using poisonious chemicles to shower fools Ravenous animals devour fools I build a giant robot to overpower crews Using pens and pencils like power tools A fifty-foot metal man, named lyricore Will stand up to the bully and hit him in the jaw Cuz when I step in the door It takes a minute for the emperor, senator, madator, minitor Kicking bitterness to show it ain't sweet Whether it's a dark cave, or the middle of the street Cuz the only thing happening the next time we meet Is the thrill of my victory and agony of your defeat (echoes)
