Cutscene 

[laughter]
Four freestyle rap heroes, called forth to embrace arcane dangers in a world not their own, at last face off against an eldritch abomination before their way home closes for good… Wait a second, is this game real?!


Verse 1

Right I wanna get it Underway, 
Multiplayer Gameplay Isekai Anime Roleplay,
Storydriven, live a little - hidden in the code, hey,
What’s a little AI when you’re in the know, eh?
5th player GM, now in the mem’ray
Tabulating scores with the lightning in the core
Game used to be a Tabletop, now it’s on a PC
Freestyle Rap D&D, that Steam Heat
Breeze past details, straight into the action,
Got new players into rap with a passion
Blast through con after con interaction
Formed new family to fight with, faction
Bicker in the group, entertaining, an attraction
MIC made of magic when a demon wanna cash in
FIGHT with the power from the Spectral Realm
Rap well: it’s only you, ‘gainst the powers of Hell!


Chorus 1

CHECK! YOUR! SKILL!
THERE’S MAGIC IN THE MIC
CHECK! YOUR! SKILL!
FREESTYLE TO SURVIVE
CHECK! YOUR! SKILL!
YOUR RAPS’LL COME TO LIFE
YOUR RAPS’LL COME TO LIFE
YOUR RAPS’LL COME TO LIFE


Verse 2

Now that you know what the Game is, watch as the Fates flip
Upside down to believe it; seen with incredulous eye
As every rap in the mind
Becomes a reason that your crew still breathing
Use an at-home mic, 
And watch an enemy life
Be taken down like the bars you full of,
You scream and you laugh as you snatch the wool off
Each Bardic (every well-timed hook) you pull off,
All you've done in the campaign to date
They on the run, why they old false gods awaked
We wouldn't let em have their way with the plane, we stayed,
And that's the difference between time that you find and make
But as a skyscraper sized wooden demon delivered,
Every sizzling sinner's nightmare they had in a pillory
We nipped the sitch and the stitching pretty, desynchronizing his milly
Synergy higher than ever Amp Check and bam we're in bizzy


Chorus 2

CHECK! YOUR! SKILL!
THERE’S MAGIC IN THE MIC
CHECK! YOUR! SKILL!
FREESTYLE TO SURVIVE
CHECK! YOUR! SKILL!
YOUR RAPS’LL COME TO LIFE
YOUR RAPS’LL COME TO LIFE
YOUR RAPS’LL COME TO LIFE
[laughter]


Solo                
 

Chorus 3

CHECK! YOUR! SKILL!
THERE’S MAGIC IN THE MIC
CHECK! YOUR! SKILL!
FREESTYLE TO SURVIVE
CHECK! YOUR! SKILL!
YOUR RAPS’LL COME TO LIFE
YOUR RAPS’LL COME TO LIFE
YOUR RAPS’LL COME TO LIFE

Our journey starts with a town to defend
We never thought this is how it would end

I never met a monster that I didn’t wanna murder
They keep coming for my girl, but they never gonna hurt her
We have conquered creeps and tyrants, bloody battles brought us further
We've found the mastermind, now it’s time to fight with fervor for this 

Boss Rush, Boss Rush
(spoken) HERE WE GO!
Boss Rush, Boss Rush, Boss Ruuuuuuuuuuush

They've swallowed the sun
The villains ascend
But our fire burns on

Here they come!

To face us once more
The spirit of bosses
That we've slain before
It's a

Boss Rush, Boss Rush
(Spoken) Boss! Fight!
Boss Rush, Boss Rush Boss Ruuuuuuuuuuuush 

We traveled far with our misfit friend squad
We caught some fish, now we're killing a god

Well you might have been my maker, or a brother and betrayer
I’m the prophesized protagonist, another word for slayer
You can serve up our accomplishments to combat this conveyor
Of the conquered past and perished, with a wing and a prayer for this

Boss Rush, Boss Rush, Boss Rush

Perstrami Persona [Steve, ZillaPersona] - Boss Rush

In this game you play the role of a plucky young aquaculture farmer. 
Our journey covers the character creation setup of the piece. 

There's some double-time and what I try to claim is singing vocally throughout the track. 
tanner4105 has provided some smoothed out Donkey Kong Country instrumentals for your ear holes. 

Welcome back (welcome back)
now's your chance (now's your chance)
to heed advice and get you leveled and advance
Yo aquaculture is the name of the game, it's the title you crave
 but another terrible character I might just go insane
but that's OK though, not about erupting like a volcano 
but you never seem to listen and I feel like I've been bitching
And I'm gonna teach you fishing and you can't say no
invading info
innovative intro
incredibly incognito
you'll need your payment info
can’t get that until you grown at least to level 5
can't spare a dime when you login, immediately die
ayo that's wack
why you gotta build your guy like that?
got shrimp and prawns, gotta move along
and darlin that's a fact 


we got that northern, got that whiteleg, giant tiger prawn
sea cucumbers we got numbers and they sing along
you run the fishery
The aquaculture nursery 
you're not taking it seriously
We kinda need your currency friend 


You should think twice about your stats
You took no points in traps
but your sex appeal is maxed
I don't even know what it's even in the game for 
maybe DLC port, mentioned it on G4, 
bundled it with Recore, wasting all this time for
me to make a report, busting up the keyboard
Cause I don't know what you're doing
yo  your whole vibe I'm not fluent
if you're the crustacean student
our reputation is ruined
and I can't handle it, manage it, 
your failures so elaborate 
business plan so immaculate 
your dumbass couldn't handle it
all ya gotta do is click that shrimp
It’ll run that script, it’ll count them chips
you don't gotta use a fist 
wanna give a little kiss
and I got another hint
wanna find out what it is?
Yo you can unlock a lightsaber! 
none greater neighbor, so tell me what to ya think?
maybe one day you can upgrade to a better tank than a sink

we got that northern, got that whiteleg, giant tiger prawn
sea cucumbers we got numbers and they sing along
you run the fishery
The aquaculture nursery 
you're not taking it seriously
We kinda need your currency friend

You gotta click that shrimp
You gotta click that shrimp
Click that shrimp, baby, click that shrimp (x4)

{Important Information Here}

we got that northern, got that whiteleg, giant tiger prawn
sea cucumbers we got numbers and they sing along
you run the fishery
The aquaculture nursery 
you're not taking it seriously
We’ll never get your currency, man

Come on, I never chose to be forced into hope's end
And know there are doors that don't close when they're opened
They're joking. The golden child? Chosen? All lies
I'm not the best with a vest, just the rest ain't alive

If survival was the plan for a draftee in hell
Why'd they slap me with a scattergun and pocket full of shells?
Dumped three hundred others into bellies hella beasts held
Now these motherfuckers wanna tell me they believe?

Well, I'm not even supposed to be here
No dotted line signed, just a life commandeered
By a rifle point, steered to what they called my career
So yeah, I'd met monsters before the "real" ones appeared
Kinda weird how it wasn't these demons I'd feared

What is it even that's making me try to stay alive at this point? 
In time we all die but life stopped when I allegedly then became "employed"
Now that authority's destroyed but I'm suck in this horrid abyss 
Devoid of a reason to keep on but boredom I guess? Or maybe I'm simply annoyed?

Knee deep in the deadliest voids with enemies coming in infinite waves
Simpler days I'd grown to forget, won't expect a legitimate grave
Surviving for nothing but spite, or something? I might just confess I'm depraved
Enough to make it a game, till ogres and fiends are mistaking my bullets for rain

I mean, it's not like pain affects me after what the government's done
Ripped me out of my home, I never will hold my daughter and son
Beaten down till cold enough that the meat in my ribs came to frost
So we'll see if this hell hath a fury to match but a fraction of rage that I've brought

ExtraDial [Damn Selene, lizardgrove] - slipgayt

We chose to do a boss Battle inspired by the confrontation with Shaelob from Lord of the Rings, Return of the King

We also did it as a troll of the concept, 1up Funk is commisioned to write the ending of the new 1up Funk Game
and instead we wont shut up about LOTR

Hookshot chose to use the Chiptune elements in his Beat:
HookShot adds a new element to the composition, every 4 bars as traditional VGM would

Bobby chose to use the Aliteration Aumlet which is evidenced 
Bobby also used singing and doubletime, but feels the aliteration was the focus



INTRO

Back once again like we've been here before
On the path of the villain come to settle the score. 
Everything is Ciclicle, Every bit is visceral
Lessons get imprinted into the visual

X2

VERSE

Well we were a wizard and a warrior well worn with wearyness
were in this waking wicked evil in this wilderness
wandering while we watch whispers walk in whisps
while arachnid witches wound up out of the where the wind whips

animalistic with an acrobatic acumen 
ansilary amateurs after her abdomen
all arrows knocked all alchemy on afterburn 
attacking adolescent ankle biters 
Fucking Amateurs! 

PRE CHORUS

raging at a spider feeling fully fueled by fire
as we travel through the pire felling creatures using Ire 
as a method to inspire transformation to a higher 
form of being so we can achieve the credits we desire cuz

CHORUS

Shaelob she stalks beneath the sheer rocks
She rocks toxic knee socks and Reboks
Shaelob she stalks beneath the sheer rocks
She rocks 8 knee socks, and eats hot shots
 
8 legs dance in the darkness
2 hearts stand for the light
1 shot take down a heartless
1 up we live for the fight

Shaelob she stalks beneath the sheer rocks
She rocks toxic knee socks and Reboks
Shaelob she stalks beneath the sheer rocks
She rocks 8 knee socks, and eats hot shots

SKIT

Bobby Arson: Yeah dude like Shaelob but like shes like a Hip Hop Spider like wearing Reeboks and Shit

Hook Shot: Yeah yeah!

Sam Whitehead: No No, were not doing a Lord of the Rings Thing

HS: Yeah like damn ahoooo *beatbox noise

SW: Weve been over this

Bobby: Yeah, we have been over this, its almost like... we've, been here before

SW: NO

HS: "that's because we have Sam

SW: NO!

HS: were going in circles"

SW: NO, BLIMEY GOD BLASTED . . .


REPRISE

Back once again like we've been here before
On the path of the villain come to settle the score. 
Everything is Ciclicle, Every bit is visceral
Lessons get imprinted into the visual

VERSE

Bobby the beaten broken barbarian 
better build brazen backbone thats big enough to bury her
bitter when I conjur a combustible caucaophony 
closed off to the cold coffin the boss offered me

Hooky heaves his halberd whole hog at Shaelob
She sobs as she gets speared into a shishkabob
she crawls back in the abyss ceasing to exist 
we get the exp, then repeat it

PRE CHORUS

raging at a spider feeling fully fueled by fire

Shaelob she stalks beneath the sheer rocks

Shaelob she stalks beneath the sheer rocks
She rocks 8 knee socks, and eats hot shots

1 shot take down a heartless
1 up we live for the fight

Game genre: Dating Sim
Screen: The Final Encounter

V: Oh, here we have it, the final encounter. This is a tough one, to be sure. Many have tried, all have failed so far, but maybe this is the one. 
A: It's a challenge, for sure, but we have a challenger. 
V: Oh, a true player. Let's see how it goes. 
A: Round one. Shoot your shot! 

I'm the final boss of the dating sim.  
There's no way to win, 'cause I can't take a hint. 
You're gonna fail and then you'll wanna play again 
Your loss, take it in, let the games begin.  
I've got all my defenses up, 
all tensed up and my comprehension tends to suck. 
Try to bend your luck with charms and methods of 
seduction, but we all know where you're ending up. 
Zone of friendship? What? No, twit, that's a prize. 
You're going home alone. Big fat surprise. 
Like Macaulay Culkin, without supplies. 
Always sulking, rip out your eyes  
if you don't wanna see the blank stare on my face 
as I dismiss your compliments as having terrible taste. 
I've had my fair share of dates, so I'm set, except 
I only found out in retrospect. (That's what that was?)  
  
V: Oh, you hate to see it, folks. Striking out in the first round. 
A: Well, let's see if there's any bouncing back from this. 
V: It is not looking too good right now, but it ain't over yet. 
A: Round two. Make your move! 

You know you'll be ill at ease, I don't show 
vulnerabilities. You've honed your skills, increased 
your ammo as sociable charmer, 
but cupid's arrows ricochet off my emotional armor. 
And my heart doesn't glow, so it's harder to get to. 
You try to connect, I'm just not gonna let you. 
With all the respect due, every romance Lothario 
measures on a scale from no chance to very low, 
no matter the scenario, even with careful listening, 
say you're getting hot, I'll hit the air conditioning. 
It's not your whispering nor a matter of discipline. 
I simply miss the gist of what it is you're propositioning. 
Not a single inkling. I just stare into space, 
unaware of infatuation you wear on your face. 
I've had my fair share of dates and before I left 
there wasn't one who wasn't bored to death. 

V: Ooooh! That's gotta hurt! Advances went right over the head *and* were countered with absolute tedium. 
A: This is a disaster, folks, and after so many successes. 
V: Well, there is one more round, so maybe not all is lost. 
A: Round three. Date!

I'm like talking to a brick wall, 
mindless conversations. 
A human bottle of rohypnol, 
minus connotations 
When we're walking through a strip mall, 
I'll exhaust your patience. 
What I'm saying's I'm an awful date, 
and you're gonna wanna escape from the jaws of fate 
before it all too late. They're already agape, 
frothing and starting to oscillate. 
Being my lawful mate is not so great, 
like a box of defrosted flakes. 
To get dad jokes like that for the rest of your life 
put me in a dress that is white and address me as wife. 
I've had my fair share of dates on repeat, the same 
every time 'cause no one's beat the game. 

A: Oh no, I think that's game over, folks. 
V: It sure is. The only way to move forward now is to start over from the last checkpoint at the beginning of the encounter. 
A: Press any key before the end of the countdown. 3...2...1...

.5 Quartet [Vincent E.L., Ardamus] - Beyond Reach

Pardon my smiling,
AJB live at the island,
Live at the island

Plane crashed, marooned, spent 400 moons
With my best friend, but still I need some elbow room,
We never found our jet or any of the wreckage, strange,
How the hell do you lose a plane?

Stuck on a lonely island off the coast and I feel me roasting
Out in the sun, just about to see my ghost when
I notice something stuck in the base of a tree,
Grab a couple sticks, we’ll try to pry it free

Gotta give thanks, amen, we caught a break,
Single by The Winstons, flash megabyte 8,
We've got enough battery for just one take,
Oh that only says 4 megabytes... great

Turn up the juice, let's put it use,
I'll send an S.O.S to the world, you produce,
So get ready for the last thing you'll hear from us,
JK, we'll bump tracks for the next 30 years plus

Pardon my smiling,
Kyle Vice live at the island,
Live at the island

I built a raft out of mp3s and emptied me
Inside of the lyrics, but it crashed at sea,
Impractically, it didn't sound like trash to me,
But I didn't fit in the box for how it has to... grr

Screw iambic pentameter, try to fit a song in
These confined parameters,
Confined to an island I can walk its diameter
Faster than you can say, "Boom shacka-lacka-lacka!"

Jack Merridew, not scared of you, I don't care if you,
Can sing a High C, mmm,
I thirsty, I hungry, I tired,
I can't think straight enough to talk inspired

I use rap just to gauge my emotional state,
Over the past year life is… not great.
Want a song about an island? That's my life,
But I can't use the verbs I need to express that, come on, play nice
