Damn...

This was practically the same exact story.

How's a motherfucker to judge?

First off, or rather lastly...
Ya'll both kind of stumbled on the closers.

LM went from a 2 line rhyme scheme, to a 3 line scheme at the bottom.
Fucked the flow up some...

Taktik had a steady rhyme, but his flow was very choppy at the end.

As far as content.

LM told the better (simpler) story, easier to read.
Taktik came with the complexity and the vocab.

Flow was on point, length was the same...

I'm gonna have to take points off and subsequently give this loss to LM...

Only, and I mean ONLY, cuz he stopped in mid verse for some reason, and did this...

So to himself he said, no-one knows I exist so I'm a frame Judas
Once I was somebody but I wont be one of the worshippin losers
The romans are boozers, drinkin, laughin and always jokin
These muthafuckers are sleepin, healin and as for life, just hopin


It's like ya suddenly made 13th a gangsta talkin dude.

I'm sure he was probably one at heart, but the lingo was really bad and out of place in this otherwise very thoughtful and deep verse.

So, for staying steady with the concept, and having some better vocab/complexity...

Taktik

But, had LM not done what I pointed out...

I'd have given him the vote for the easier and better reading verse.

It was that close...

Real good work, LM...
