about

This song started as a simple freestyle as a joke. But the rhymes and ideas kept coming and it was so much fun to work on that it just came to life. Just like with any good fighter, it's no fun to play single player so I invited my buddies from Unknown Vices to jump on this one with me. Much love to Capcom and Midway games for influencing my childhood. Also I borrowed sound effects from Street Fighter II Turbo Hyper Arcade Championship Edition... or perhaps Street Fighter II Turbo Edition? If the song goes viral, I'll send you a cut of the money Capcom, I promise!

lyrics

Verse (round) one:
Spoon: Hadouken, kick you in the fucking shin.
Pick you up and slam you down till your back bends.
Flying through the air, fall and bust your fucking chin.
Wylin on the couch, talking shit with my friend.
Playing street fighter where the beef never ends.
Throw some punches man, there’s no need to defend.
Upper cuts man, make your body wanna cringe.
Tornado kicks man, make your fucking head spin.
Knees weak man, throw the fucking towel in.
It’s too late man I’m charged up with ShOw You Ken!

Chorus:
Coming for the title, time for a new rival.
Beat you down till your face is in the gravel.
Coming to your street, you ain’t got far to travel.
You can’t win, watch your whole game plan unravel.
Flying jump kicks, followed up with the sweep.
I’ve seen your style man, you won’t be hard to beat.
Ultra combos, perfect victories are so sweet
Fighting in the streets we only use fist and feet.

Verse (round) two:
Eye Zak: Spinning Bird...
Damn, that chick THICC (PERFECT)
Disconnect our controllers and plug in the joysticks
Next challenger all fists, no kicks
Balrog from the shadoloo
Rushin like Zangief, just to head butt you
All a warmups
Until I select Ryu
With the traditional Gi, fuck blue!


Chorus:
Coming for the title, time for a new rival.
Beat you down till your face is in the gravel.

Verse (round) 3:
Rykuma: Kneel before my presence
All of you are fucking peasants
School is in and I’m here to teach you all a lesson.
Your combos and special moves fail to even test my patience
Trying to run the clock you shouldn’t be so got damn complacent.
Your Fear so strong in the air I can taste it.
Battle you 4 in the the morning, breaking your fucking molars
God Kombat this is not for the mortals.


Coming to your street, you ain’t got far to travel.
You can’t win, watch your whole game plan unravel.
Flying jump kicks, followed up with the sweep.
I’ve seen your style man, you won’t be hard to beat.
Ultra combos, perfect victories are so sweet
Fighting in the streets we only use fist and feet.
