The black mic was defeated in a close call/
I told em that when duty calls, my team won't fall,/
We The bravest the most courageous/
Now The battle is won but the war still wages/
Everyday is a fight
Everyday of my life,/
Tired of going left,
One day I pray I get right,/
Money is always tight
My friends are always leaving/
Trying to beat the odds, but I just wanna break even/
So when I met my crew, it was such a relief/
The ending of all the heartbreak disappointment and grief,/
Finally had some homies I'd scrap and I'd die for/,
Someone to look out for, and to provide for/
So when the battle ensued I would supply more/
And set a off fireworks like it was July 4/
Haven't mastered the elements, yet/
But it's almost as if they recognized the nature of every single threat/
'Cause they banded together for the final fight/
It was unlike anything I'd seen in my life, yet/
Quite a spectacle, I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't peeped it/
The universe exposing all of its deepest secrets/
...and to me of all people/
That's when I realized we're not created equal,/
Many are called yo, and few are chosen,/
And these are the stories of those men,/
Who make a way when all walls have closed in/
Who see the evils in the dark and expose them/
Yeah. And Who knows what the future holds,/
When you put effort into the things that you control/
Kinda surprising truth be told,/
You can get stopped just short like the Hawks in the super bowl/
Yeah.. Thats why I maintain humility /
Keep control of my faculties up in any facility/
And now there's one more task,/
A final battle so we can find peace at last/
So many chapters, and now we're at the end of them/
Preparing for the fight of the millennium/
[Last BeNeVoLeNcE] -Verse 2-
But, looking back, things were just so strange/
After we won, in my heart I felt pain/
'Cuz you see, I used to be the Black Mic/
Or a part of his heart, when I thought I saved lives/
All I did was say lies/
My old quest to "save the world" was a false vision in mind's eyes/
Then, I figured, I needed a new direction/
I made an escaped, "exodus" from my perceptions/
That's when I had awakened in Polyphony/
But even, when I see the Black Mic, I know it isn't me/
I don't spit rhymes about crooked politicians/
I never smoked, never took the life of someone livin'/
The only girl I ever really had was Snowberry/
I never played with a single heart, so every/
Thing the Black Mic represented, I resented
His morals I had rejected, his dark heart, I had left it/
[Last BeNeVoLeNcE] -Hook-
I can be my own artist my own person,/
I don't need to follow, I don't need to be cursin'/
People will still hear my voice and my words when/
I speak my expressions, I hope you heard this/
I can be my own artist my own person,/
I don't need to follow, I don't need to be cursin'/
People will still hear my voice and my words when/
I speak my expressions, please observe this/

Wholesome Hip-Hop for kids that even adults and longtime fans of real Hip Hop music can enjoy without the cheese. Probably one of the greatest Hip Hop albums ever made. Last BeNeVoLeNcE
Mega Ran is one of the best Hip Hop artists of all time and quite possibly the best Hip Hop artist in our generation. He's not afraid to honestly express who he is and what he's into within his music. Last BeNeVoLeNcE
supported by 22 fans who also own “Setting the Stage feat. Mega Ran & Impermanence”
Very nice concept Album! A nice collaboration between BeNeVoLeNcE, Mega Ran, K-Murdock and Kharisma! Hip Hop and JRPG's (especially those made in the '90s) collide in one neat little package. The game is well crafted too, try it out if you get the chance!
