Two takes, both of the same verse; 2nd one is probably tighter than the first

God Of War Rough Verse 1

Lyrics

Who rocks mo’ hats than a team in a fort?
Mo’ caps than a meme can support
Got a beam and a sword, but he ain’t Darth Vader
Instead he’s the original seminal cosplayer
The pinnacle, this ill individual’s got flavor
And passion for fashion for ya’ll to savor
Mixing and matching, of this one and that one
He’s in and he’s it and he isn’t ever clashing
But dashing, like a race against a gourmet
Or some rats in a chase for a bit of shortcake
But his forte is and always has been
Maximum snacking and daytime napping
And leaping into action to save the day
And straight BALLIN in a kinda major way
So what you call him?  Oh you didn’t know?
I guess that’s what the hook was invented fo’

Lyrics:

Verse 1
It’s a celebration!  See we was starved of late when
We were robbed by a portly and porky penguin
But thank our lucky stars, cuz the day’s been saved and
Tonight we gonna party like a Scarfy at banquets
With amazing buffets and Kawasaki creations
To sate our vacant plates and astronomical cravings
For a venue as popping as a Poppy’s vocation
With enough Pep Brew that even Noddy’s awake
And on, and into top gear
Everybody’s dancing like the course got cleared
Cuz Sigma’s here and getting busy on the Walkie
Skolar’s going harder than a Rocky
Forged in the fiery furnace of Planet Hotbeat
But still mad chill as in the feeling from a Frosty
Skill they can’t copy, like Waddle Dee
So please proceed to keep party-on properly

Verse 2
Though they got a cutter bubble bomb needle in common
He’s not Rock Man though he is real rockin
In interior design but not Animal Crossing
And animals got him though he’s not the Kongs, hedgehogs
Or the foxes, all of whom he’s brawling
Call em Mary Poppins how he parasols in
Or maybe Toadstool, just b/c they both rule
The one a kingdom and the other cold fools
Like the spring sprung, meaning easy as a breeze
Even when the bosses blow, harder than the apple trees, you see
Long befo’ Mario, he was saving galaxies
From trag-adversa-cata-lama-deva-sastra-tastrophes
So naturally, now he’s gonna party till the day hits
He ain’t never met-a-knight he couldn’t hang with, so
Like he’s Poke-training, going dumber than a plumber
So listen for his name with the chorus on the come-up, uhh

Verse 3
Who rocks mo’ hats than a team in a fort?
Mo’ caps than a meme can support
Got a beam and a sword, but he ain’t Darth Vader
Instead he’s the original seminal cosplayer
The pinnacle, this ill individual’s got flavor
And passion for fashion, for ya’ll to savor
The mixing and matching, of this one and that one
He’s in and he’s it and he isn’t ever clashing
But dashing, like a race against a gourmet
Or some rats in a chase for a bit of shortcake
But see his forte is and always has been
Maximum snacking and daytime napping
And leaping into action to save the day
And straight BALLIN in a kinda major way
So what you call him?  Oh you didn’t know?
I guess that’s what the hook was invented fo’

Here is a second verse for Sir Jordanius' excellent Station Square instrumental, "Take Some Time Off." It continues the theme of the Sonic characters wanting time off, but this one is directed against the bosses and includes reference to several leisure destinations and activities. Excuse the recording quality! Lyrics below:

Who do these big bads think they are
Holding your time in such disregard?
You just want to hit up Twinkle Park, play a little carts, win his heart
But they’re steady sending missiles into launch

It’s plain inconsiderate, impudent, probably deliberate
Ay brainwashed fake gods, they’re sick of it!
Tell ‘em like, Chaos, hey boss, lay off for a second
Can’t you see the city’s crowded and we need a change of setting?

Ice Cap is freshly powdered and it’s ready for the shredding
And the casino’s got some showers for how filthy rich we’re getting
Chao could use some petting, the fish a bit of catching
And do I need to mention Gamma’s still defragmenting?

So peace out, we’re jetting on ahead to the beach
While we’re off, have a romp with the S.S.P.D.
Cuz in this life either have yourself a 3D blast
Or else bomb like the Dreamcast, real fast

TSTO Verse 2 Sample

Me doing a verse and a half on chimpazilla and jordanrooben's excellent Twilight Princess WIP, "Hero's Rest," set immediately after a boss fight. I fuck around a little in the intro as a mic check, but serious lyrics are below:

It’s been a long day in the saddle, feeling rattled
Crawling through dungeons and doing battle – what a hassle
I’m exhausted, lost and mute, boss-accosted
Trudging but it ain’t the Iron Boots

Playtime of 50 hours, so many that foes we encountered
But Midna says the WiiMote’s losing power – man!
Just when I feel like I can’t go on
Well that boss keels over and I hear my song

That which doesn’t kill you can only make you stronger
Life meter’s one heart longer
Horizons getting broader while I’m leaping over lava, treading water
Geared up in tight Zora armor

Feeling so fly, my eyes are to the sky
Acknowledging the goddesses because I didn’t die
Or nothing, I know my quest is still a long way coming
And I haven’t yet reached the summit, but brother, what of it?

At least I didn’t plummet, and right now
The fight’s out and we triumphant
Another deep dark dingy dungeon bites the dust
Like it’s dusk, filled with twilight and such

It’s time to heal, ride, and do some side quests
It’s time for hero’s rest!

I said it’s time for hot springs and taking some deep breaths
It’s time for hero’s rest

It’s time to put a couple bugs in my net
Yo, it’s time for hero’s rest

It’s time to celebrate our success
Yes, it’s time for hero’s rest

Hero's Rest WIP Sample Verse

A few rap lines in ancient Greek... Full verses are hard to write, so this is it for now. Lyrics and translation below:

#1
οὐ δει̂ ει̂ναι ὁ Τειρεσίας του̂ προβλέψαι ἅ τα μέλλοντα
πέπομφα και πέμψω Ἅδῃ ψυχάς ὡς θύματ’ ἔδωκαν 

You don't need to be Tiresias to see what's going to happen
I have sent and will send souls to Hades like men make sacrifices

#2
ἄγω αὐτούς ὡς βοὺς διὰ τοὺς ἀγρούς
σπείρων νεκροὺς εχθρούς, τὴν τάξιν δεικνύς
ὥστε εἰμί ὁ βασιλεύς, ὁ νου̂ς ὀξύς
διό καλου̂μαι ὁ Ζεύς, ὁ βαρύς γονεύς

I drive them through the fields like oxen
Sowing enemy corpses, demonstrating my rank
That I am king, the sharp mind
Which is why I am called Zeus, the cruel father

#3
οὐκ ἐστιν ἄτε, διατί ἐστιν ́ἡ Σπάρτη
ὁντινα ὁς ἁμαρτάνῃ ἡδὺς εἰςάξω τῳ̂ Ἄρει

This isn't madness; this is Sparta
Whoever slips I will gladly introduce to Ares

Lyrics:

Well I wanted to bring the moon to you
But some tidal waves all started to brew
So I had to hit reverse with a kiss and a curse
And let the simulation sit and stew

Cuz I just wanted Baby Girl to see
That there’s no beaux quite as sweet as me
String the moon on your necklace, pricey pretty precious
At Xmas, hang it on the tree

But now I had to think for a minute
Cuz I couldn’t steal it and I shouldn’t shrink it, 
My mind felt full of gravitational pull
As I mulled over this predicament

But then a lightbulb halo’d on my head
I said a lightbulb halo’d on my head
Oh yes a bright-bulb, shining in the night-bulb
Yes there was a lightbulb halo’d on my head

And then the stoplight stopped being red
And a spotlight took over instead
It was flashing like neon with waxing LEDs on
Like lightbulbs halo’d on my head

So I drove down, down into the dump
Found a few parts sitting in the junk
In my backyard got to working real hard
Turned my old car into a rocket ship
Who woulda thunk?

And one night, when they were asleep
We tiptoe’d, didn’t make a peep
We packed our bags and American flags
And boarded my spacecraft Jeep

Crazy in love like a loon
Left a note saying, “We’ll be back soon”
I took your hand and just like we planned
We blasted on off to the moon

Well I couldn’t really bring the moon to you
So instead that’s where we flew to…
