Brandon Sanderson Rap


yeshevishman

Recommended Posts

So I make music and rap, and wrote this a while back (around when Oathbringer first came out).  I know my mixing skills aren't that great, but I wanted to make a tribute to my personal hero and writing idol.  How many bars can you catch?
Also, I'm aware that some of the names in the fandom are usually pronounced differently, but as Brandon says: you are free to pronounce the names he makes up however you want! xD

Lyrics:

(Intro)Brandon Sanderson

Yeshevishman

This the nerdiest stuff I've ever done!

Yo!
These days most Rappers are trying to stay topical
It's hard to be lighthearted and keep it comical

Yet I could act polite, like top hat and monocle

And still write raps longer than the Stormlight chronicles!

So stay back and stay wack

I pull guns and play Wax

Switch my flow up more than Brandon Changes Wayne's hats!

Yo, like this guy I'm disguised

Burning metal gets you this high!

Got more personality than Wit, need Steris to list my-

Atributes, yet I got attitude like Bastille

I'll turn into any weapon you want like I'm Syl

But stop reprimanding me there's no real damage done

'Cause I'm killing with a pen: that's Brandon Sanderson!

Son, you saying I am famous? Stab the eye like you're Sadeas

Even look like Adolin, 'cause I'm dressed like a playah!

Don't want me at your party, I'm an unwanted visitor

Don't spike the punch, I spike your heart; make you an Inquisitor

I burn MCs like Metals so call me a Mistborn

Got more fight than Bridge Four

More stormlight than six storms

And you're tripping like you're Sing, or Teft on opium

Step to me? Your career is unmade - your new name is Odium!

Got talent! You a Smedry, 'cause I think that yours is broken

I'm half royal, ruling grammar, call me semi-Kholin

Could rewrite the whole Wheel of Time - MC Jordan

No girls folding their arms beneath their breasts when I'm recording!

I could write like other rappers: "Took an enchantress from Elantress

Bragging how the answer is always to romance her."

Although that wine's decanted I'm still bringing witty banter

Harder than Horneater White while your stuffs the softest amber!

Every rhyme aluminum, every line a shardblade

'Cause when I run you through with one, I give you heartache

Worse than the one that Szeth gave Gavilar

Leave you more depressed than Evi's death made Dalinar!

I'm a chef, you're a cook, and your rhymes are thick as mist

Plus your bars are always falling flat like the Rythmatist.

(I'm playing)

But I'm so raw I'll leave your throat parched and

Leave you feeling less than a dark eyes: like a Parshman!

(That's harsh man!) 
I'm not racist: Joyner of the Cosmere

Joining with the Cosmere to be the storming boss here!

Forming a new order like Reckoners meets Radiants

Drawing a line in the White Sand between you and my braininess

Making you hate this more than an Ardent hates an atheist

'Cause I write like I'm Jasnah!

You thinking this is alien?  I came to win!

The rap Kaladin I'm that paladin

Leaving your brains addled, riding the wind when I saddle it.

Better step out the ring if it's me that you're battling

'Cause I win every duel: MC Young Adolin!

B.S. his initials; my lyrics? no way!

Swear to travel with swagger - call that my Oathgate!

We got Cosmere Rap Battles?!?  I need to swing by.  I've been sitting on this one for a while though and been busy recently. I only released this today because I have been trying to get my vocal recording software to work for the past few months. :P  I'll definitely swing by when I get the chance.  Just need to find it... although, if you have a link or s/t, drop it here.
