Let me get my heart on track like beta blockers, Sega be my jam, BOOM SHAKALAKA
This song lets me know who the real ones are, I'm honing in with flamethrower bars, Gunstar
Sonic got me hooked it was life at first, making bodies hit the ground like it’s life alert
This my domain, it’s our sector man, hitting you in in directions, Vectorman
In MK Ls are what you’d see, never ending swipes like a Facebook news feed
Gotta keep it Juicy Super Nintendo, no, um excuse me
It was all a dream! We repping Sega Genesis, when I was broke nope I couldn’t picture this
I’m dropping bars like falling sheet music, 'bout games that we played when we was cheat code using
Y’all some Urkels so Imma keep your wins low (Winslow), breaking sonic barriers shattering all your windows
If you wanna be talking about Nintendo, I’m gonna be the one that’s getting loud like crescendo
Now I see you peep that, wondering will he keep that, speed no I switch that, rhyme until I get that
Understanding that you know we fly like a jet pack, and if try to hold us down you’re nothing but a setback
If you falter see? Don’t have the power cuz, I’m a different animal an Altered Beast I power up
A Phantasy Star, you’re not even in my galaxy, everything you say is the Mother Brain just a fallacy
Hook:
We repping Sega Genesis, when I was broke nope I couldn’t picture this
I’m dropping bars like falling sheet music, 'bout games that we played when we was cheat code using
I get mad hype when I hear that call out, this is my jam, so I’ll deal with the fall out
KC & Jojo for all my life, I steady stay rocking Sega, it’s all alright
Verse:
Its an ironic tone, when people tried to box me in but I move frame by frame like the Comix Zone
Like uhhhh what you call that? You know that thing where they try to group all blacks?
"What you like this? You should like that!" Then they act surprised caz' I don’t buy that
"Did they really say it?" Yeah they did, but the Sega put some swag in this kid
Now I’m flowing like Ecco, lets go, the music is the building block (Le-le-le-le) Lego
Yeah we out here, watch me bang one, trynna' be immortal, call me Shang Tsung
Just heating up before, now I’m on fire! No tripping me up like the hot wire
May be known for Sonic and how he goes fast, but every other console gets whipped, Road Rash
Hook:
We repping Sega Genesis, when I was broke nope I couldn’t picture this
I’m dropping bars like falling sheet music, 'bout games that we played when we was cheat code using

KC & Jojo for all my life, I steady stay rocking Sega, it’s all alright
[Mega Ran]
Verse:
Forever Famicom! Nah, It's ya boy CMF dog, picking up where me and K-Murdock left off
They thought I stepped off, every box checked off, sunset riding the beat until I leapt off
Caz' they said it did what Ninten-didn't, I saw the vision so I had to get a system
Try all they want they can't front, hit EGM and GamePro in the same month
Where it all started, 8 megabits on a cartridge, man it's going down like a drawbridge
My block was like LA in the 90s, you claimed the wrong console and fools took it grimy
Z80 chip all processors blasting, record mastered, lining up another classic
You've built your skills now it's time to display, now I get to say... RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE!

Obviously as a nerd mainly into punk rock and heavy metal I first got into Mega Ran from his VGM-based projects. A Mega Man X project with vinyl to boot? Count me in! Amazing how the "Start" sound alone triggers a flood of good memories. Brilliant work guys. Sean Comerford

I love this album because Mega Ran handed it to me himself in Baltimore, it was the last copy they had! Also, it's a great collection of his work. coolloserguy

I love this whole album: It just captures a wide range of experiences and affects the listener with a wide range of emotions.
I first liked this album because of the nerdcore elements, but I fell in love when I realized that these verses were true poetry, speaking to a deeper truth and beauty unlike most hip-hop I've heard. "A Poet" exemplifies this with its bittersweet message about how poetry is not valued. This is the first hip-hop tune I've ever shed a tear over.
Take a bow, Mega Ran. platinumazure
