LET THE WRITER GO

All verses written and performed by Rukas
Hook written by Rukas
Hook sung by Rukas and Dekay

VERSE 1 AND VERSE 2 BREAKDOWN

Verse 1 & 2 are written in a style I call “multi rhyme scheme juggling”

Here is my example –
It starts off at OUT OF MY RIBS, and goes right to the end of the scheme.
Rhyme sounds are all words rhyming with EAGER TO TAKE/NEEDED A SLAVE/ etc.

…And juggling those with the other set of rhyme schemes –

MASOCHIST/AS IT IS/DRAGON IS/ etc.
I’ve CAPITALISED 1 rhyme scheme, and left the other rhyme scheme lower case, as it really does go over people’s heads,
Well, I’ve been told that anyway, as when I explain it to people they say “Oh, shit, yeah I didn’t realise”
The CAPITALISED rhyme words above are just random selections so you understand what I did here.
I wrote this in 2010, and recorded it here in verse 1 – I do it also in verse 2,

VERSE 3 – BREAKDOWN –

In Short, my ULTIMATE STYLE, (in the sense that I deem it my most skilful) has been dubbed as ‘MIRROR WRITING’

My mate Dekay coined it one day, so I stole it from her heh heh
Essentially, I am rhyming whole sentences, with every single syllable.
In parts, I am rhyming 2 sentences, instead of 1. I really can’t top this. Do not try and bite my style heh heh.
PS nitpickers? I know you out there lol. Before ya say something don’t rhyme or whatever, bare in mind my accent. Listen to song first. The closest I come to a slant rhyme is in my first 4 bars of verse 1 when I rhyme POWERLESS with MASOCHIST

LET THE WRITER GO

Intro before the beat – 2 opening bars
Last 4 syllables of each bar not included, as they are an edit, written after the recording.

“The offering of a rose basket I bare the lid closed tight
The coffin was a closed casket affair the widows cried”

…Said you were eager to take
An apprentice I believed it but hey you needed a slave
You can see that I gave ya secret away creature that prayed
Either the grave asleep or awake finally with this key that I made
OUT-OF-MY-RIBS I was free of the chains
POWERLESS and weak with decay
ALCHEMISTS mix CLOUD-ED-MY-WITS needed to pay
The Gatekeeper a way OUT OF THIS, and hold the grim reaper at bay
MASOCHIST I keep it that way, HAZARDOUS
Meeting the grey ADVOCATE Speaking of great
SACRILEGE seeping with rage
Leading the way ACTIVIST how TRAGIC IT IS to be in a cage,
But MAGIC IS believing in faith
EXCALIBUR IS deep in the lake, ENRAPTURED AS I see it I take
It chasing sAVAGES even relate to LAZARUS, leaving the cave
In NAZARETH AS IT IS your being amazed
TRAPPED IN THIS beat and I make words leap from the page
FATHOMLESS thee inner mage IMAGINE THIS
ProtAGONIST I speak from the grave
The DRAGON IS free and enraged
SNAPPING HIS teeth in your face, eating the brave
HAPPINESS freedom I taste BACK FROM HIS Sleep and I crave
ACTION KIDS, what’s HAPPENING IS
Feeding an age of ADDICTS WITH a CATACLYSMIC
Deep display verbal heat wave
THAT’S STATISTICALLY great RAPPING KIDS All hail the free slave
THAT’S WHAT HISTORY made, MAGIC MYSTERY… hey!

HOOK – Rukas & Dekay

Get that guy below – “Don’t have any idea”
Let the writer go – “Don’t Lemme die here” No!

Verse 2 – Rukas

All hail the free slave …Back on this earth
A dragon emerged to SLAY MEN tackling the worst
Of FAKE MEN I’m attacking’em first they’re only babbling words
I HATE THEM! Get back in the church and PRAY WHEN
I TAKE PEN rap in a perfect WAY THEN add in a burst of RAGE WHEN
Strange word patterning works a GREAT TREND
Fact in a verse I RATE TEN
Maddening words sound bad and it hurts to SAY THEM
Birds of PREY SENT scattering first the CAGE WENT
No longer trapped and The Words my SLAVE FRIEND
Imagine the worst of CAVEMEN having the urge
Acting berserk, I’m the only one that can IMPERSONATE THEM
At AGE TEN I was a captain of Merc’s
I had in my person GREAT ZEN travelled in Persia PLAYED THEN
Rattling nerves battling the curse of MAYHEM
Motherfuckers know I’m back and the earths my PLAY PEN

Verse 3 – Rukas

And it begun, I step in wars field
The weapon steady swings ya gotta duck!
I branded my tongue, sweat and Forged steel
The second petty kings are horror struck!
The amulet I hung, eleven lords kneel
The legendary Sings to God above!
A banquet for one, a seven course meal
The seven deadly sins get swallowed up!
Walk tall see me earned me the right
No counting the days before me, rhythm and flowing
For sure we see Eternity die
Go out in a blaze of glory, live in the moment ‘
Write ya name in the stars never coming down dude
Strive for fame and surpass everyone around you
Coz to be the best fool ya gotta leave the rest
Coz the be successful ya gotta flee the nest
Bring the saga write grief and pain fills the mind
In the afterlife teaching angels to rime
We make a strong cast and never see it fade or die
Create a long lasting legacy portray your life
Can’t relate to the numbers flocking “Hey Jays here”
I’m a maker of wonders modern day Shakespeare
Mirror writer deathly flows disagreeable
Spirit rider every ghost is my vehicle
