Maja S. K. Ratkje Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I'll rewind the sands of time
Cuz I love the old design
I don't do no second guessing
Thanos snap no decaseconds
Lacking seed no Deku seconds
Test ya might won't take a second
Mortals Kombat finish second
Finish em won't last a second

Ya princes I purge em
Takin' it back like a dj reverse em
Distorting ya time and I'm callin' it torsion
Power a ranger and witness u morphin'
Power the dinos and making em storm in
There is no me then you lackin' an origin
Marvel in time you're a Blade and I'm morbin'
Powers awoken now it's time to stop
Blasting straight up out my past
Roaring to the future
Flashing like a Cannon blast
Hold it all wit sutures
Seeing where your end begins
Not an evil doer
Time is in my DNA
Keep it all together

You headed towards the hydrated Hydra
Hydrophobics faint, yuh
I Hydraulic press em,
Hit em with that Pressure
Mineral, Water or Monster?
I am a Gem of Power
Adversaries to me are a Blunder
Tear em asunder
I be the drippiest dragon,
Pearl that be Shinin'
Wet up an enemy and many dyin'
Water me down, man they be tryin'
You couldn't turn the tides on this giant
Your PC couldn't render my universe
GG Spatial Rend if he duelin' first
Verse me, and I'm Spitting a multi-verse
Thirsty? Liquid deity's causing hurt
You enter My Space you get Scale Shot
They don't Ar-see us how we spray ops
No comet when I leave em starstruck
No comment I be Hydro Pumped up
The Titan is snappin', Attackin', my Arm-in the cavalry
Thanos Dragon unmatched, I'm Guardian of the Galaxy

The world is mine for distorting
Your body and mind I'm contorting
I'mma extort a force like never before
Transform with an Orb and
I'll take back the things that I once claimed
I'm draggin' y'all to the world I made
Get revenge on the one that locked me away
I'M THE ULTIMATE RENEGADE
ANCIENT POWER IN THE BAG, AY
SHADOW SNEAK I PROBOPASS, AY
SWIFT WITH A CLAW I'MMA SLASH, AY
DRAGON BREATH TURN YOU TO ASH, AY
PHASING RIGHT THROUGH YA SO NO FIGHT
AURA SPHERE LEAVE YOU WITH NO LIFE
TRAPPED IN THE DARK YOU GOT NO SIGHT
LOCKED IN MY MAW CALL IT GABITE
Bringing you down with me, contract is a Destiny Bond
If Chaos is what you seek, I'm giving you what y'all want
Stomp on a Mon I'mma flatten em, bigger than Mamoswine
Climbing the ranks, going Platinum, Put em to sleep Darkrai

Call me kami
I be standing tall
I don't never need an army
I created this so now you thinking you can harm me
It's daunting
We'll step to the Plate
And sadly to say
I'm Judging every move that you make
No pleading ya case
So stepping to a god you bouta all die
Fade into the darkness till you meet the homie Darkrai
He'll broadside
Ya Nightmares
Ya fall to sleep quickly
You all fall to dust
You disintegrate Swiftly
You're mincemeat
Laid to rest in all of ya ways
A heavenly beast
Everything started from hatching me
Beginning and end
Alpha and Omega

I'm him
Got so many ways to describe my greatness
