Damn it, man... I was really hoping to do this right... I rushed this and forced myself to write. Wasn't feelin it at all. Sorry so short, had to meet deadline and get myself to bed....I didn't wanna no-show, but... You got me Contagious... :(

Utopia's playground once blessed with perfection,
Now a battlefield breeding horror and rejection
Demons wreaking havoc tortured souls need protection,
Drowning in anguish, we all pawns in his collection.
Hellfire and chaos reign supreme on the planet
Angels fight for harmony just as God had planned it
Man can't understand it, but they livin in death
Saints suffocate the Prince, but we givin him breath,
Cuz we killin our own kind outta fear like Macbeth.
And as this war rages on, his captives never rest.
Placed under arrest when Eve turned us in
Humanity' s bound by what we've learned is sin
Empty promises of freedom make us turn on our brothers
Shackled by pride, and we forget to honor mothers
The righteous praising God cuz rescue looms above us,
Others losing faith cuz damnation moves among us
Powerless apart, but if we should unite,
Join forces with the heavens, and escape eternal night
There's hope for humanity, salvation is in sight
I know Divine Glory will deliver us, and so my vision's bright.


...blah...

*DMX- They Dont Know Who We Be type theme blasting in the club as an old veteran walks to the mic for open mic night and spits something that shook even the most rebellious to their very core*

* Taking place in WWII, Nazi Germany at one of the concentration camps*

Once a 4 star general then, now poor, starved and on chemicals Again
Body to worn and weak gentlemen, who's bodys couldnt react to adrenaline
But When I tell of the tale, of brave men who become frail
You have to keep the situation in mind to truly weigh the scale
*exhails*

Our bodies became weak and frail, but mind stayed Sharp and Aware
A Group of P.O.W's who could sense what lurked in Darkness Glare
We Were the Nobodies, The Fallen Ones, The Forsaken Nameless
Left Far From home, and forgotten by a Nation who didn't Claim Us
Can You Blame us for getting caught? The mission details were so bleak
We were so weak, yet covertly supposed to crawl through the low creak
Grenades were just thrown blanks, no live ammo as we trenched the snow banks
We Were spotted, and caught so we live in this hell hole with No Thanks
The food is garbage, The Stench of Death Overwhelms The Senses
The Air's So Dense, I Wish I would Have Died In Those Trenches

Each Plane Overhead, Makes My Head Search The Sky
But Only to find more missiles blasting, like a Compton drive by
They never stop the relentless assault, and it seems like our fault
They locked us in the "annex" and threw the key in the vault
I'm appaled, the U.States of Freedom, preaches but then leaves em'
Never again to see them, unless bombing missiles pass by just to tease em'
And then came D-Day, where our prayers were finally answered
But Only Upon Medical Exams, to find we were injected with cancer
Our bodies were mutilated, and tortured beyond recognition
Our Minds scarred from the rape or elderly,youth or even pregnant women
Eyes can't hide tears forever, I guess that's true
But how can you "rapperz" claim to be hard? how dare you
My "pleasant thoughts of Germany" Would scare you beyond reality
As human Casualties were witnessed by others rather casually
Rationally, my mind has seen horror that surpasses the word Hate
My life was torn to pieces, and my love was torn by fate
But as of late, Prisoners Of War doesn't seem to linger or dwell
Prisoners of war, might as well be renamed Residents of Hell
May As well have been Hell, That Devil offered no Repentance
I learned that this is "death row", And I've served my "life sentence"

*with that he dropped the microphone, as the jaws dropped by nearly everyone in the bar. Nobody understood a word the man said, because the night club was in Germany, built on the same ground that he served his "life sentence" *

On Topic- Tie... Very Open Topic To Make Anything Happen

Depth- Cont... His had way more detail and finess added to make his drop better, where as Lady's was just broken from one thing... pauses to add dialouge always make a drop more descriptive.

Originality- Cont... This was slightly broken, because both used expected topics.

Flow- Tie... Ladies seemed to develop a poetic flow, where conts flow took a differant approach.

Multis- Cont

Enjoyment- Cont... He had a little more to talk about...

OVERALL

Cont
