Digital memory:

process these thoughts
as i sharkfest this mark
i' so short circuit when i spit fire it sparks
memorize my words as you download my heart
damn i got heart.....
see my verse as i talk
and over load like narc
Corrupting Peoples Understanding
leave your hard drive broke and panting
insert my memory disc into her panties
as i upload something nasty
i got too many mega bytes to be passed "B"
i re-boot as you crash "B"
forget me....you can't do
me and Dell be like Famu
at the gateway i pass through
i explore as i nav through
my files are unnatural
i shit on your yahoo
and google the tissue
i site out components
and snack on there chips dudes
i'll thread you in
so that i never forget you
insert you into my digital memory
and let you rest in its womb......

thank you

WTF? guess you win by no-show

no... not a no show.. ima write it now

The cold steel of my hand feels the elecrtical impulses as they pass..
through and through they compel my hand to touch a world of glass
fragile it stands, ever weak, opposed to the steel of "new man"
We built ourselves out of nothing and evolved with the land
Yet we lost so much for progress, died in for the hope of immortality
faith based in science and knowledge lose our true humanity
blood, the crimson gateway to life, replaced with the blackest of golds
a hardrive and RAM replacing the ever sought after soul
Yet we sold what we couldn't know to be true, bartered our faith
leaving humanoid facades to eternally roam this hellish place
When man became machine I could no longer feel this "love"
nor the ecstacy of an orgasm, nor any "holy presence above"
I'm resigned to hollowness, deep, unforgiving, unrelenting
and I can't regret it, I'm empty inside, guiltless, unrepenting
All I may do is watch this earth crumble and change, from paradise to hell..
and remeber a time in which I could feel what life was oh so well..

took like 4 minutes

fuck that you 2 days to late....how the fuck you going to bend the rules

Did you not see my application for an extension and reason why?
maybe you should read it..
Thanks :thumbup:

There's your proof.. look up if need be..

yung medikated...it looks like you actually put quite a bit of effort into your piece. I see what you were trying to do with the wordplay and metaphors, but your main problem was the fact that you took an unimaginative approach to your drop...i couldn't draw any deep meaning from your piece at all. when you next write a topical piece, before you do so i think it would be beneficial for you to brainstorm using a spider diagram or something to work out all the possible angles you can approach the topic from. Also, you should up your vocabulary in order to make the ideas you portray much more vivid in the mind of whoever reads or hears your drop. with time you'll get the hang of this, but it just takes practice.

If more people had signed up to this comp you would have faced an opponent closer to your level, but sometimes you have to be thrown into the deep end of the pool to learn how to swim.

"Keith Moon" (:mad: lol)

your piece was a much more solid drop, with a more profound message behind it. Your imagery was a lot stronger. I liked the emotion in this drop. It's like an eulogy for humanity in the dawn of technology.

this wasn't a fairly weighted battle in terms of skill but that's the way the cookie crumbles

v/ Keith

didnt realize keith dropped a verse, ill leave a vote after i drop for me and medikateds battle, its due in an hour and i only have like 8 bars written since thursday

no offense but this wasnt a hard decision, i knew comin in to the tourney that yung was the weakest link. no disrespect its just i could tell there wasnt much topical experience. you did look like you tried harder than u do in most of ur text battles though, but when it comes to topicals i never go wit simplicity and simple would describe your verse in one word

keth? dont know what was goin on. most likely because u did it in four minutes and new your opponent, but u know and i know that against any real topical opponent,you wouldve probably lost with that verse. was still good enough here though. u actuall had all of the things needed to make a topical verse such as emotion and imagery. dont get me wrong i loved the angle you took on this, just i know u wouldve executed it thirty times better wit the right amount of time.
