Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So far ahead, these bums is laggin'
See me in that new thing, bums is gaggin'
I'm startin' to feel like a dungeon dragon
Rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon
I'm startin' to feel like a dungeon dragon
Look at my show footage, how these girls be spazzin'
So fuck I look like gettin' back to a has-been?
Hang it up, flatscreen
Plasma
"Hey Nicki, hey Nicki," asthma
I got the pumps, it ain't got medicine
I got bars, sentencin'
I'm a bad bitch, I'm a cunt
And I'll kick that ho, punt
Forced trauma, blunt
You play the back, bitch, I'm in the front
You need a job, this ain't cuttin' it
Nicki Minaj is who you ain't fuckin' with
You lil' Fraggle Rock, beat you with a pad-a-lock
I am a movie, camera block
You outta work, I know it's tough
But enough is enough
Rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon
Rah, rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon
Rah, rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon
Like a dungeon dragon, like a dungeon dragon
Rah, rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon
Rah, rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon
Rah, rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon
Like a dungeon dragon, like a dungeon dragon
Rah, I eat your face off
You niggas sweet as pie like this is a bake-off
I love Nicki's curves, swing at the baseball
Err, I'll beat your brakes off
Hi, I'm Tune, salt in the wound
I'm up in this bitch, pardon the goons
Throw dirt on the floor and get caught in the broom
I like a big wet pussy with a fork and a spoon
I got money and the power, a woman in the shower
And she don't want nothing but my Johnson, Howard
Sour Dies in the Swisher Sweet, sweet and sour
You're scared? Go to church, say your prayers, read a Bible
Ah, I don't know what y'all on
Please, I go in like "Goin'"
Drink in my hand with the world in the other
The Uzi go "Brr", stutter
Life is a puzzle, jigsaw
All I do is win, my name should be Victor
Old-ass rappers
I'm still the shit, old-ass Pampers
Rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon
Foie gras, I hear you ducks is quackin'
I was just dumpin my ashes, I'ma puff it and pass it
I'm a fuckin' assassin, you should jump in the casket
Is this the thanks that I get for puttin' you bitches on?
Is it my fault that all of you bitches gone?
Should've sent a thank-you note, you little ho
Now I'ma wrap your coffin with a bow
"Nicki, she's just mad 'cause you took the spot"
Word, that bitch mad 'cause I took the spot?
Well, bitch, if you ain't shittin', then get off the pot
Got some niggas out in Brooklyn that'll off your top
I hear the mumblin', I hear the cacklin'
I got 'em scared, shook, panickin'
Overseas, church, Vatican
You at a standstill, mannequin
You wanna sleep on me? Overnight?
I'm the motherfuckin' boss, overwrite
And when I pull up, vroom, motorbike
Now all my niggas gettin' buck, overbite
I see them dusty-ass Filas, Levis
Raggedy Anns, holes in your knee-highs
I call the play, now do you see why?
These bitches callin' me Manning, Eli

You've gone mad, mad, I tell you, mad
You and this boy Little Weezy
What's going on? They'll lock you away
They'll put you in a jail cell, I promise
Take your mother's warning, Roman, please
Back to bed, run along, let's go, come on
Wash your mouth out with soap, boys
In "Roman's Revenge," Nicki Minaj assumes the alter ego of Roman Zolanski, a character she created to express her aggressive side. The chorus of the song, "Rah, rah, like a dungeon dragon," is Roman's catchphrase that she uses to show her intensity. In the first verse, Nicki is referencing how far ahead she is in her career compared to other rappers who are trailing behind her. She also mentions that people are gagging at her new things, which is a reference to her flashy style, making her the target of envy.
The second verse contains more aggressive lyrics where Nicki describes her appetite for destruction, and her love for violence. The remainder of the song is Roman continuing to taunt her detractors and throw insults at them. However, the song's final verse is a warning from Nicki's mother to Roman that she is going too far, and that she risks being locked away for her outlandish behavior.

Ashley Bradley
the fact that Nicki could keep up with Eminem in this song 🔥🔥🔥 they was both throwing straight bars
Raffi Ratatouille
I think it was the other way round, Nicki helped Eminem with the lyrics
My YouTube account
He kept up with her
müetere
@Malik Cochran lmfao
Anthony Walters
keeping up no. the white boy made a mockery of her and is she british cause the last part sounded british to me
Spencer Adams
this CAN NOT be touched, no other rap collaboration will compare to this, I’m sorry. The bars, the vision .... Roman & Martha, Slim Shady!!!! ICONIC 🙏🏼
Aaliyah Esparza
Naw I think Lil Kim should def still claim nikki on her taxes
J Christopher
Forgot the homophobia
Aurora Mchugh
This is what u said can't be touched this isn't even that good comparing it to the rest of Nikki's discography. The 2nd Nikki verse is the hot one here but queen and nm5 era that is upon us now are lyrically superior to any studio albums ever dropped so I suggest you sit and listen also shether was absolutely brutal ok was it effect long lasting on her career no but Nikki was definitely bothered by and black Friday was also hot fire scathing hot when it comes to diss records.
The Yumblat
@Joey rosacheck out Angel Haze. I’d def put her right around the same level as Nicki, maybe even better. Her “Cleaning Out My Closet” remix is one of the rawest most hard to listen to (in a good way) rap songs I’ve ever heard.
