Fling Posse & Matenro - BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
[Intro: Ramuda Amemura & Jakurai Jinguji]
You? Beating me? No way!
You need a very special lesson in manners

[Doppo Kannonzaka]
“Sorry” this, “sorry” that
Well, I’m fucking sorry, but I’ve had enough
And now that I’ve gotta step up, no one can make me let up
I’m throwin’ out the rulebook and crushing all you simple fools
Beaming my rap directly into your brains via bluetooth
Prepare to eat asphalt, gambling schmuck, ’cause I’m hitting you like a dumpcar
You already wasted all your luck, gonna spend your life sleeping in the gutter
The name’s Doppo and I’m always runnin’ hot ’cause I’m the real deal
Until we win, this space is fully under my control

[Dice Arisugawa]
Hah! Don't make mе laugh, you fuckin' corporate bitch
You waltz in here actin' all maturе
But in rap that ain’t worth shit
Livin’ risk free won’t bring home cash or victory
That’s why I’m bettin' my life just to make money
Stability? Nothin’ about that interests me
But lemme tell you what’s really hot:
Always livin’ on the edge, baby, I'm Dead or Alive
I got no collar—white or otherwise—my life’s mine to decide
[Hifumi Izanami]
Where do you get off snapping at anyone, you overgrown pup?
You’ve got some bark, but no bite to back it up
Entrusting your fate to a roll of the die is all your doing amounts to
I’m Hifumi GIGOLO and I make sure every moment counts
Are those out-of-date clothes some kind of joke, Gentaro Yumeno?
Write all the books you want, but all you’re gonna earn yourself is carpal-tunnel
I look to the future where everything is as I imagine it would be
And you’re living somewhere in the Meiji era, hahahaha!

[Gentaro Yumeno]
Hmm, indeed, you may have a point, I feel
You certainly know how to keep it “real”
If you have the time, I’d love to collaborate someday with you
Some day that will never come, because none of that was true
Learning from past mistakes is what it takes to unlock the future, you see
You’ll always stumble if you never look down at your feet
The straight-forward approach isn’t always the right answer
Not that a gibbering fool could ever understand that

[Hook]
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE (Yeah)
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE (Uh)
Shinjuku’s Matenro has everything from the foundation under their control
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE (Yeah)
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE (Uh)
Shibuya’s Fling Posse’ll be taking the crown, see and knock it outta town
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
We’re gonna throw down today
Let the pieces fall where they may
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
[Jakurai Jinguji]
I have had enough of these ludicrous opinions
As I stand here now upon a foundation of precious information
Your idea of rap is mere child’s play to me
Your attempts at provocation seem as inconsistent as can be
I’d suggest relieving yourself by shutting your mouth
But if you foolishly fail, I’ll happily zip your lips and add some stitches
To stop up your mouth and shut down your irritating shrill voice
Your future is in jeopardy—before you know it you’ll be in my infirmary

[Ramuda Amemura]
Ew, gross, infirmary? I better be in for plastic surgery to turn me
Into something strong and cool––like a Frankenstein––or I won’t be happy
Zip my lips all you like, I’ll just rip rip rip them right open, ya hear?
You want shrill? I can give you your fill—I’ll start with the right ear
And move to the left ear––am I coming through, loud and clear?
I only have so much patience for people who don’t learn their lessons
So if you can’t promise to stop dragging skeletons out of people’s fucking closets today
You’re signing your own death warrant, buddy

[Dice Arisugawa]
How do you like us now?
You’re just stallin’ while we’re evolvin’

[Gentaro Yumeno]
Matenro? What a joke
This is the end, you better pay attention
[Dice Arisugawa]
This country’s wolves are doomed to be consumed by the extinction machine

[Gentaro Yumeno]
Our survival to the next era is giving me a rush of dopamine

[Ramuda Amemura]
Now this is what I call fun! Begging for mercy’s what you should do
Then our crew can blow this joint and find some honeys for us to pursue

[Fling Posse]
We’re a Posse
We’ll show you our bonds
Nice combination!
Living for the moment is our prime motivation
(Fling Posse Posse)

[Doppo Kannonzaka]
Oh god, just shut up already
There’s nothing but bullshit flowing from your lips

[Hifumi Izanami]
If we’re doomed to extinction as you submit
This is where we flip the script

[Doppo Kannonzaka]
However tragic our past may have been, we just turn the tables and tackle it

[Hifumi Izanami]
And we a team of souls capable of that working together to fight this Division Battle

[Jakurai Jinguji]
Such self-serving scoundrels stuck in our snare so easily
Could never understand that it’s all a simple facsimile

[Matenro]
The people that we
Can save with our power
Number, how many?
That is why we pick up our mics
And singing our plea
Matenro!

[Hook]
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE (Yeah!)
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE (Uh)
Shinjuku’s Matenro has everything from the foundation under their control
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE (Yeah!)
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE (Uh)
Shibuya’s Fling Posse’ll be taking the crown, see and knock it outta town
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
We’re gonna throw down today
Let the pieces fall where they may
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
The BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE
