I'm The One
Shai Linne Lyrics

Mic check 1, 2.
Introducing himself and announcing his presence.

Yo, I don′t know what you think this is, man.
Challenging those who doubt him.

You think you can talk about me as much as you do and I won't respond?
Asking a rhetorical question and indicating that he will respond.

Better realize I′m the one.
Asserting his dominance and power.

I'm the One that the movies use to entertain and I′m the One that seems fun on video games.
Stating that he is the concept of death, glorified and made fun in various forms of media.

I′m the One that the rappers like to shout about.
Acknowledging that he is frequently referenced in rap music.

I'm the One that does to them what comes out of their mouth.
Implying that those who reference death in their music will eventually die.

I′m the One that's broadcast on the news nightly.
Noting that death is constantly discussed in the media.

I′m the One that most take too lightly.
Expressing that people do not understand the magnitude of death.

I'm the One that′s been the enemy for centuries.
Referencing the long-standing presence of death in human history.

You'll all come to me eventually.
Suggesting that death is inevitable for all humans.

I'll take now all contenders between January and December.
Stating that he will kill anyone at any time.

Destruction′s my agenda, I′m the one to remember.
Reiterating his power and dominance as the concept of death.

This is not hyperbole, I'm not know to exaggerate.
Clarifying that he is not exaggerating about his power or capabilities.

So what I′m dropping verbally, I'm in prone to acuate and if your laughing, you have no clue about my magnitude and how I′m smashing dudes with a nasty attitude.
Explaining that his words are not empty, but will result in action, and warning against laughing or underestimating him.

I'm sorry that was rude, I got such a major rep that I never introduced myself, Hi my name is Death.
Apologizing for his bluntness and reiterating his presence as the concept of death.

Nice to meet you, It would also be nice to defeat you and watch the worms eat you when I 6 feet deep you.
Jokingly introducing himself and asserting his power to defeat anyone.

Your probably wondering how I be shoutin′ with hostilities, silly wanna be killers really be doubtin' my abilities.
Addressing those who doubt his power and questioning their skills compared to his own.

They all be actin, talkin' smack with their sorry rappin′ but when I′m called to action, they'll all be silent like Charlie Chaplin.
Calling out rappers who talk about death in their music but will ultimately be silenced when they actually face death.

I′m all reactin'.
Asserting his power to act on behalf of death.

WIll you respect me like you cherished sin or will I have to turn your arogance into embarrassement?
Leaving the listener to question their own beliefs and whether they will be humbled by the concept of death.
