Gimme the Mic
Hypnosis Mic!
ALL:
Gi-Gi-Gi-Gi-Gimme the mic!
ICHIRO:
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, gimme the mic
A leader going his own way, bad Ichiro’s appeared
Unanimously admitted as the head
Do you wanna get eaten up today too? (1)
In control, I’m the rhyme master
Buster Bros!!!
This street will now become our front line
‘Bukuro will trample on anyone who dares declare war
These wack bastards won’t get my mic off me
JIRO:
The bomb’s been ignited, take cover
This blast’s attack will rock your body
Oi oi, ain’t this fight all just for show? (2)
Hey, only meet my eyes if you wanna know pain, got it?
In ‘Bukuro every time we cross each other’s paths
You’re sure gonna end up in tears two or three times
Go on, run away with your tail between your legs
Like I thought, you’re just a faker after all
SABURO:
You’re totally something like a cocky online troll (3)
Seems like the mob is finally making its appearance (4)
I can see that you’re in high spirits
Scattering like ants after stomping on their nest
Boasting like a caged monkey
Morons for opponents aren’t even worth my time
Merely yelling won’t win in a debate against me
With an IQ that low, it simply isn’t enough
CHORUS:
Gi-Gi-Gi-Gi-Gimme the mic!
Signal the beginning, hear the cue, it’s my mic
Stalling won’t bring you victory here
Division battle, rule the stage
Now, cry out your best words and style different rhymes
Steal everything and show off, make an original flavour
Now stand up, gladiator
Retreat all cowardly haters
Mightier than sword or pen, Hypnosis Mic
Divide the world, my punchline (Bang bang bang!) (5)
Adrenaline (Pump pump pump!)
We’ve got no choice, it’s kill or be killed, so don’t look back
SAMATOKI:
No questions asked, here’s MAD TRIGGER
Your mouth is shut, swallowed up by this blue coffin (6)
C’mon, this is Samatoki-sama’s grand entrance
Props like you lot should bow down to me
In the end you’re all just puppets
Ain’t it chivalrous of me to yank on your strings
‘Hama’s not a joke; not somethin' you can make light of
I’ll make you drink the saliva that you’re spittin’!
JYUTO:
Amateurs like you should fear my handcuffs
You think puny weapons’ll ever spook me?
Hah? Disobedience means immediate arrest
Forge you a warrant, throw you in the slammer
Wandering streets with no care for city limits
I’ll turn a blind eye to the law, unchained and unattended
Without good sense you’ll be in danger
My badge decides your case as black or white (7)
RIOU:
Cool and collected, I’m Crazy M
From ‘Hama’s soldier into a focused laser
No gaps in my focus, I’ll keep you in sight
Can’t run in this city; stand your ground, take the beef
You’ll get no mercy going up against me
Stabbing you with my words just like knives
No room for hesitation, I’ll pull the trigger and take your life
You know what I’m saying?
CHORUS:
Gi-Gi-Gi-Gi-Gimme the mic!
Signal the beginning, hear the cue, it’s my mic
Stalling won’t bring you victory here
Division battle, rule the stage
Now, cry out your best words and style different rhymes
Steal everything and show off, make an original flavour
Now stand up, gladiator
Retreat all cowardly haters
Mightier than sword or pen, Hypnosis Mic
Divide the world, my punchline (Bang bang bang!)
Adrenaline (Pump pump pump!)
We’ve got no choice, it’s kill or be killed, so don’t look back
KAZUSATO:
Dark liberty, North Bastard
Now we’ll take front stage
I’m the general of Akabane’s sacred grounds
Burn into your memory this wondrous retreat (8)
Pursuing forms without sharpness (9)
The background is nothing but darkness
Scream and cry out as you’re swallowed by all of these wicked shadows
You have to die
RYOZAN:
I’m a talented trickster
A jet roller coaster of lies
MC Griffin rolls up, quick-talkin’ deceit (10)
But I’m gone once shit starts goin’ down (11)
A flippant, young, master MC
Aah, y’couldn’t hear me? Don’t worry ‘bout it
A cowardly lawbreaker, and slanderous too
You gotta win to fit in with this loyalist society (12)
KENEI:
Since the day I was born I’ve had dangerous thoughts
Armed with logic instead of chasing delusional ideals
We will put terror into all of your hearts
How shall I mangle you? I’ll dissect you at once
Crazy doctor, MAD SNAKE
Getting involved brings your life close to the end
Before you can notice my dark, hidden impulses
I’ll administer my poison, just like a serpent!
ALL:
Gi-Gi-Gi-Gi-Gimme the mic!
ICHIRO: A rebellion’s beginning, it’s time for justice
SAMATOKI: All you spineless cowards hurry up and go home
KAZUSATO: Thug life is superior, a dirty highway to success
ALL: A revolution of words, gimme the mic!
CHORUS:
Signal the beginning, hear the cue, it’s my mic
Stalling won’t bring you victory here
Division battle, rule the stage
Now, cry out your best words and style different rhymes
Steal everything and show off, make an original flavour
Now stand up, gladiator
Retreat all cowardly haters
Mightier than sword or pen, Hypnosis Mic
Divide the world, my punchline (Bang bang bang!)
Adrenaline (Pump pump pump!)
We’ve got no choice, it’s kill or be killed, so don’t look back
Welcome to the division (Gi-Gi-Gimme the mic!)
Welcome to the division (Oh, oh yeah)
Welcome to the division (A revolution of words, gimme the mic!)
Hypnosis rings out this masterpiece! Now, don’t look back
It’s kill or be killed so don’t look back
NOTES:
“Eaten up” is slang.
Mirroring Ichiro, Jiro’s rhetorical question line also includes a slang term (“for show”) which refers to an event being staged or faked. Essentially, he’s saying that the battle isn’t even interesting enough to be real.
First line and already Saburo is making otaku references. He says ikiru/ikitsu, which is a derisive term used online to refer to someone arrogant or cocky, and chuubou, which means “internet troll” (and is also slang for middle-school student? It could be that he’s referring to himself in that line too, but I wasn’t sure).
The word Saburo says here is uzoumuzou (“crowd”), which is basically him calling the other two divisions about as challenging as anyone else.
A punchline in rap is the second half of two bars; one for setting up and one for delivering a blow. These can be both funny and insulting, and usually incorporate heavy wordplay. As you might expect, Sasara is very, very good at this.
“Blue coffin” is a reference to both Samatoki’s speaker and his last name Aohitsugi, which is what that directly translates to.
In Japanese police terminology, “black” means that you’re extremely guilty and “white” means you’re more or less innocent.
This guy loves sounding fancy. Akabane is a relatively small but popular neighbourhood for nearby Tokyo citizens to relax at night, where it tends to come to life, so calling it a “retreat” basically means it’s somewhere nice to go.
It was difficult to find a way to make this sound good in English while keeping the lyric format, but essentially Kazusato’s saying that “you can’t find us because we’re impossible to focus on”, like they’re hidden.
Ryozan says beshari here, which is a term used in the entertainment industry to refer to someone who is talented at communication with others, and good at thinking fast and ad-libbing on the spot.
Here he says tonzura, which is slang usually used when someone runs away from a crime they’ve committed.
A loyalist is someone who sides with the government/whoever’s in charge when an uprising is happening.
