Mythology Cypher lyrics
by Cam Steady
[Verse 1 - Greek Mythology: Cam Steady]
I believe in miracles and many gods
Add another hero to the pantheon of ancient Greece's demigods
Espers, we be droppin' head first
Soundin' all the drama like Apollo with the best verse
Test her, you gon' fall in Artemis' aim
Ain't nobody goin' hard as the dame before you started to play
She been masterin' the targeting game
This the goddess of the hunt, pray you aren't the prey
We survived the test of time, we're refined like finest wine
From the Crete vine, so divine like siren cries
This a Greek life, and you might just lose your mind
When we rock mics like you saw Medusa's eyes
Life is do or die, fight your only time
I'll be seein' cash when they pay a homie's rites
I stay in the lab like I'm Hades' homie, Hyde
Oh, I didn't add that, I'm Hades, homie, hide!
Livin' in an odyssey that's written with
Same ink as the Iliad, right next to Odysseus
Tell 'em what the mission is, save all of the citizens
Murder all the Miramon, they gon' need some discipline
Like I was the god of war
Ares gonna leave 'em wantin' more
Aphrodite, they want a piece but the talk is cheap
I'm a god at the top and I'll drop the beat, it's time to drop the beat!
[Verse 2 - Egypt Mythology: Mix Williams]
Ay, I been feelin' too high like skies divine
Horus, I'm that guy, try me, eye to eye
Your fate's Set, brother, I'm the highest kind
You a god king? Then you just a child of mine
Find inside my mind, outta this earth
Sun and moon collide and you might learn
'Bout the worth of the gods, you don't wanna see me furious
Worship in awe like the people building pyramids (what else?)
Now you steppin' to the kings on a beat
From the pharaoh to sphinx, the Sahara's a beast
If you're darin' to beef with the Egyptian gods, you'll see
That you'll stare death down, not your cup of tea (no sir)
Said "who's this?" It's Anubis
No bite, but the dog bark ruthless, true this
Try the canine and you're clueless
'Cause they bring the brain out your body when you're buried where your tomb is
Hotter than the sun when I spit, Ra
Monsters better run when I lift off (what else?)
I rock a couple cobras for the wrist watch
Takin' all the water out the Nile like you drip nun
Follow the leader
This is the greatest peak people are reachin' since Giza
I beam with that Cairo heat
I'm a god at the top and I'll drop the beat, it's time to drop the beat!
[Verse 3 - Chinese Mythology: G.Yee]
Enough with the layman's script
Time for the mainland myths
It's the journey to the best and it spans where the great clan lives
Immortals in the band and our shapes can shift
It's the story of the restless Sun Wukong
Who conquers every quest, the one who longs
To rise up from an ape to a king, from a king to a god
Who can p*ss in the palm of the Buddha and yawn, uh
So whatcha gonna do
When the Sun Tzu crew wanna son you dudes?
In the art of war, you're a fun new tune
Celebrate your fall like the eighth full moon, so true
Ao Bing, way the nice ice froze you too
Lao Zhu, now we callin' on him
I'mma turn into a dragon, way I'm ballin' on 'em
They be callin' me the Greatest like the Wall we got, I'm like the terracotta
Soldiers, no shot, you ain't gettin' through my guard
So hot, no shot, way I'm whippin' out the arms
And I'm whippin' with the wheel ablaze
Only weapon that I wield is flames, I never yield or fade
Until my death do part
Then I'm comin' right back to a fresh new start
Now the slate is clean and my fate is free
I'm a god at the top and I'll drop the beat, it's time to drop the beat!
[Verse 4 - Norse Mythology: The Kevin Bennett]
Check the poetic edda edited by scholars
And you know that stolen valor isn't welcome in Valhalla
I'mma bring 'em down to Hel with Hela if you start a war
With the cardinals of the Norse, modern marvels like I'm Thor
'Bout to slam the hammer down with Mjolnir when the foes near
I channel up a storm while I sip on a cold beer
I never strike twice, so I'll finish your men here
And throw 'em to the wolves like they visitin' Fenrir
It's a bad omen for the sad chosen
When the man, Odin, starts the mad flow and
Fries a couple giants while he sittin' on the grand throne and
He can spy a liar when his eyes are only half open
So there's no need to shift-shape like Loki
In the underworld, you still stay below me
Only vice is valor 'till Valkyrie will show me
Where my soul goes, for conquering this whole beat
With a full feast and bold mead in Asgard
With the gold streets, I'm molding this rap bars
Citizens of Scandinavia lookin' up
Knowin' that they sheddin' blood so they can sip from the cup
And share a table with those true gods and never stop
Until they facing down Ragnarok all as a flock
And we're standin' up on our feet
I'm a god at the top and I'll drop the beat, it's time to drop the beat!
