Here's a song I wrote in class about 3 different people I met with 3 different stories; 'Mean Marine' 'Little Ling' and 'Zealous Zealot'. Please pay heed to their hardships and struggles in dealing with their overambitious selves. This story is very serious by the way, and has no comedic value. There is no such thing as sarcasm on the Internet either.
Chorus Now, we all make bad decisions, All-ins from cross positions Flying mutas into missiles, and all sorts of other issues Sometimes we’re on a mission, and we don’t wanna listen In the end it makes us wish to not be swallowed by ambition x2
Here the stories of 3 different lives that I came in contact with 3 different races, 3 different faces but the Similarity is this one thing that they all combat with Their ambition, now sit around and listen!
I met a mean marine, full of steam. Man he wasn’t nice Right? He just wanted to succeed, but he couldn’t fight His comrades, they were fully upgraded from the engineering bay But he didn't wanan wait
But, a good friend of his, that was stationed at his camp said Bro! I got a new type of genetic enhancement 3-3 Takes too long, instead of waiting I got the stuff to provide instant gratification
Well since he wasn’t patient, with no hesitation He purchased cases without reading the documentation Injected 3 doses, and sprinted into battle The first shot that hit him, planted him into the gravel
Chorus We all make bad decisions, All-ins from cross positions Flying mutas into missiles, and all sorts of other issues Sometimes we’re on mission, and we don’t wanna listen In the end it makes us wish to not be swallowed by ambition x2
Oh, there was this little thing, They called him Little Ling He was slower than the rest, and he had trouble fitting in I hope you’re listenin, cuz since a little egg Little Ling just wanted to be faster than his brittle legs
Could carry him, and apparently the complete honest truth Was that his blood was incompatible, with metabolic boost So he kicked and he screamed, it was quite absurd at first But he stopped when he heard a certain song by Nerd Alert
Little Ling wanted what, Little Ling had seen in fact The green backpack, is what he needed, cuz that he lacked If he could roll around as fast his friends Not only could he keep up, but would look cooler in the end
So, Little Ling turned into "Little B-ling" But he didn’t pay attention to one itty bitty thing He was rolling with his friends, it happened in a flash When he crashed...and splashed… his friends... they passed
Chorus We all make bad decisions, All-ins from cross positions Flying mutas into missiles, and all sorts of other issues Sometimes we’re on mission, and we don’t wanna listen In the end it makes us wish to not be swallowed by ambition
Now here’s the story of a Zealot, he was too over-zealous Hearing stories about motherships and things that made him jealous See he would use his 2 psi-blades to slice – n dice his foes And when they begged for mercy...no mercy did he show
He had a couple friends he wanted to be better than And tried, and strived, but it was clearly evident That Zealots, could never be as tall as a colossus Or flyer than a phoenix, he was just a tier- 1 toss
But he didn’t want hear that, and didn’t want to be that He was such a strong unit, but was too jealous to see that Or believe that, what he wanted was to be the best yall Instead of being a vital part of the protoss death ball
He charged ahead, calling the rest of his army losers Unfortunately he was greeted by 4 battle cruisers Instead of takin it slow, I bet these 3 are wishing That they didn’t take the road of being swallowed by ambition
Chorus We all make bad decisions, All-ins from cross positions Flying mutas into missiles, and all sorts of other issues Sometimes we’re on mission, and we don’t wanna listen In the end it makes us wish to not be swallowed by ambition
Pretty awesome. Would be even better if you re-recorded. I can tell some rhymes you were trying to make but didn't execute as well as you could have! Have to say though, nice job.
Thanks everyone for all of the feedback! :D. @algorithm0r It's an original song, though the beat may be sampled though haha. Yeah I'd like to do a video, but I'm pretty bad at videos and will be practicing in order to make one for every song I do.
I noticed a lot of parodies being the hip thing to do, so wanted to see how the community received a song like this lol. Seems to be a good thing, though hah. I just didn't feel like doing a parody after the Bruno Mars one, because I think new fresh sounds are always more fun lol. ^_^

Ha true that bro. I wrote it in class and wanted to test the waters. Perhaps if I make a music video for it I will re-record it to perfection!
Appreciate all of the feedback! I believe that there is a 100% chance that I'll make a video for it and rerecord it eventually, and will update the OP when I do so :D.
Haha, I can see the Everlast and Aesop Rock link as well lol. The slow smooth beat got in the mode I guess!
I have heard really good parody songs, funny ones about starcraft......but this is on a whole new level. The beat was great, but what got me was the well-written lyrics.
This is such a great idea of a song, but i felt if you missed the tone even a little, it would sound lame. But you didn't, it was such a well-written piece of work, and totally got your message through in an inspiring way.

GREAT!
Wow thanks hah, that means a lot :D. I honestly do appreciate all of the feedback from everyone. It pumps me up for when I go and ladder later lol.
Ha you all are too great. Thanks for the feedback, as it really helps fuel future projects as well :^).

good rappers nice beats and baller lyrics Can't wait to hear what else you guys produce
Ever gonna release an sc related album?
I'm sure Blizzard would even throw it up in the news feed on battlenet if you got them into it this is like top notch studio work
Kudos very enjoyable
Ya I will eventually when I have enough material, most definitely! Most of the songs are already free download, so it will probably just be an announced release that will be free to download, just with re-recorded verses and hooks so that they can sound as best as I can get them to.

Awesome work
Hah, I know . Thanks! Also, I thought people would be more sympathetic with Little Ling lmao. Don't roll around with a group of friends if you are inexperienced!
I'm listening to this song with a muted NASL stream in a window right next to this one, and it looks as if Gretorp is rapping this song (with awesome hand motions and pen-swinging) and Inc is nodding like a boss.

Great song btw, real life lessons!
LOL hahaha that's awesome. I can actually picture that quite perfectly lmao. Yup yup, real-life lessons indeed :D.
Please check this song out if you haven't already! Also, my series "WHO THAT??!" in which I describe a video game character in a song, and you try to guess who it is, will be adding an episode to the collection tomorrow! Check it out if that interests you, or if you get the chance on my youtube channel! <3
Temp0, this is SO. GOOD. Seriously, I don't normally even like rap all that much, but this is just fucking QUALITY. Seriously, you've outdone yourself this time. Keep them coming please!!!
Thanks haha, One of my more fun tracks to make! Stories are always fun to do . More are always on the way, just need to get the creative juices flowing to see what aspect of the game I decide to make into a song lol.
