dark trap-hop rap battle, aggressive hard-hittin

Intro

Hook
Say it to my face now, come on and say it to my face
You're not so brave now, standing here in my place
Go on and open up your mouth, I'm waiting, you're stuck
All that big talk was cheap, now you're out of luck

Verse 1
You were already barking before they handed you the mic
I showed up already ready, I don't need no hype or light
Now you're up on that stage and your knees are doing a dance
Every line you wrote down is gone from that page
Last week in the group chat you were talking so loud and proud
Now you whisper and you're sweating in front of the crowd
You said my name wrong, then you said it wrong again
That's your whole style, you start but you can't play the game
My first battle I tripped on the cable and went down flat
I laughed harder than the room and I got right back up
You can't laugh at yourself so the whole room does it for you
That's the gap between us, and it's gonna last

Hook
Say it to my face now, come on and say it to my face
You're not so brave now, standing here in my place
Go on and open up your mouth, I'm waiting, you're stuck
All that big talk was cheap, now you're out of luck

Verse 2
I came up with nothing, I was broke and made it a joke
Two winters in one pair of shoes, soles worn thin
Lost my job, lost my place, and I sat there all alone
Wrote a rhyme every night till the words came out right
You never felt the real heat, you just talk from your couch
I learned it all outside where the wind was cold
You smile like you're dangerous, but you never bite
I'm not scared of a fight, I've been through worse than you
I'm free of everybody who ever doubted me
Nothing about you scares me, I've seen what's mean
Now I'm up here shining and you're down low
I'm just one voice, and it's more than enough, I'm done

Hook
Say it to my face now, come on and say it to my face
You're not so brave now, standing here in my place
Go on and open up your mouth, I'm waiting, you're stuck
All that big talk was cheap, now you're out of luck

Outro
So say it to my face now, right here in this place
Go on, I'm still waiting, I'm not leaving this space
