      You guys keep getting better and better. This is one of the best raps yet. Build up is great, fast paced and aggressive. Rhyming and flow is better then the majority of most main stream rappers. I'm not a musicphile but i know what i like and the stuff JT pumps out is AMAZING.

      It's supposed to be ironic. Bioshock is filled to the brim with ironic symbolism like that. Ryan's whole entire "No gods, no masters" thing is absolutely bullshit when you actually analyze it. He, along with every other rich individual in rapture, abused and exploited others. Ryan was literally trying to become a god and a master while advocating against those things. He wanted absolute power over others, no matter what.

    "Looking for something to set me apart from a slave"
    that's a powerful line but it's true.
    Jack saved all the little sisters and that makes him more then a slave but a Angel and a man.
    Through out his life when he hears "Would You Kindly" he has to do what the person that ordered him wants.
    Him saving the little sisters was the ONLY time he was able to make a choice....A REAL choice.
    That choice then saved him at the end of the game as the little sisters helped killed fontanie and he helped them grow up....as a family.
    Father, Angel, and A man....he is definitely more then a slave.

    [Intro]
    Beyond the ocean
    A lighthouse is waiting for me
    The Great Chain in motion
    Beneath the waves of the sea
    Into the city
    All good things flow
    The sweat on your brow
    Is what you reap and sow
    Forge your own fortune
    From salt and from sand
    No gods or kings
    Only man
    [Verse 1]
    Folks told me, son, you won the gene pool
    So I guess I had a head start on these fools
    Doesn't take a Winter Blast for Jack to keep cool
    But isolation in the deep blue can be cruel
    I descend the depths fathom by fathom
    As if the ocean opened up and I've been cast in a chasm
    Upon a sweeping seascape, genetic accidents happened
    But don't blame EVE, the cause of the fall had to be ADAM
    If you believe the sweat of your brow oughtta be yours
    Listen to Andrew Ryan, the philosophical entrepreneur
    He might've put me on blast, but I'll get past his thugs
    I asked who Fontaine was, and Atlas Shrugged
    Welcome to Rapture, where you can manufacture
    Evolution: natural selection's happening faster
    Were you shocked when I said I was nothing less than electric
    This city's dead but I bet that I can resurrect it
    An engine never rests in Hephaestus
    Like a Lazarus Vector, giving breath to the breathless
    (Gasp)
    I'm getting quite dependent on medkits
    I just met a demented doctor obsessed with perfection
    You promised me pretty, Steinman, why did I get this?
    I treated your ugliness like an infection!
    That's why I took a wrench when I went to the dentist
    And my smile was dazzlin' after bashin' his head in
    Collectin' weapons, makin' effective inventions
    I'll make you vanish like Houdini
    When I pump lead in you Leadheads
    I call it artwork, want it censored? Forget it
    I got a killer's disposition, I guess it's genetic
    Death is a choice that I rejected!
    [Hook]
    Rise, Rapture, rise
    We turn our hopes up to the skies
    Rise, Rapture, rise
    We'll go down with our sinking paradise
    [Verse 2]
    Roll up my sleeves, so blood will not get on'em
    These shackles remind me I started from the bottom
    Hello little fish, have you had your cherry popped?
    I'm a grown man, damnit, I ain't scared of shots
    Shots shots shots shots now my veins are on fire
    Rearrangin' DNA? Sounds like playing with fire
    Sciences are practiced with a lack of moral guidance
    Splicers seek to satisfy their sick sadistic vices
    Victims become villains, angry vandals turn to violence
    Sickly children sticking by their less than gentle giants
    Minds manipulated by the parasite inside'em
    But if you're a parasite in Ryan's eyes, you're put to silence
    The great and strong will not yield to the weak and feeble
    Better change your DNA if you'd like to fight as equals
    Harvest ADAM, feed on EVE, it doesn't make me evil
    Because my survival rides on getting Power to the People
    Dozens of desperate denizens deal with deprivation
    But let's be fair, laissez-faire, forget the regulations
    This economy's perfectly working without you
    Now let me fill my craving at the Circus of Values
    Drawn to this city, like a moth to a flame
    Fallin' from grace, swallowed by a watery grave
    Now I'll frolic on this stage, I'm a part in a play
    Like I was nothing but a puppet, just a pawn in the game
    Lookin' for something to set me apart from a slave
    [Hook]
    RISE
    [Bridge]
    Rapture is bleeding through cracks that are leaking
    Dwindling memories tell secrets they're keeping
    Demons disguised by benign masquerades
    Angels climb out of their graves
    [Verse 3]
    Mind over matter is the practice I'm preachin'
    How else could I achieve feats of telekinesis
    And I'm an expert at hacking past your defense
    Then I'll attack you like a swarm from a hornet nest
    (Buzz off!)
    The Gatherer's Garden ain't runnin' short of guests
    I've been cleaning'em out, I can afford the best
    Hey!
    Do you wish your waist was slimmer?
    (Yes!)
    Or your chin was chiseled more?
    (Huh?)
    Careful, vanity could send us into civil war
    In a utopia, who's gonna wanna scrub the toilets?
    The people in Apollo Square got no other choices
    I know how this is gonna end, but I don't wanna spoil it
    You try to seize my city? Time that I destroy it!
    Just relax, Big Daddy, I command ya
    Strike a pose, smile for the camera
    I think objectively, just like Ayn Rand does
    Attention: will the real Fontaine stand up?
    A man chooses, unlike a slave
    Who never strays from the path that his master paves
    Follows every order and does everything they say
    Now Would You Kindly... OBEY?
    OBEY (x8)
    [Hook]
    My city is thriving
    Your allies- choose them wisely
    Our Rapture is rising
    Stand with us, Would You Kindly?
    RISE
    [Outro]
    Welcome to the Circus of Values
    You'll find no better vending service around you
    We've got everything that you'll ever need
    Don't be shy, come on by, you've got a craving to feed

    He always reminded me of a Big Daddy... him a giant, that's protective... will do anything to keep their loved ones safe.
    He also reminds me of Sander in some ways.

      Rapture and Andrew Ryan proved Ayn Rand wrong. It showed what objectivism leads to. Destruction, misery, and civil war. Hell Frank Fontaine a criminal scumbag used ryan own free market unregulated capitalism to build himself an empire and his own private army to overthrow ryan. Ryan even became a tyrannical dictator due to the flaws of his own philosophy.

    • @herringway434
      @herringway434 3 роки тому +63

      It's meant to symbolize The Great Chain. Ryan named his city and its districts after gods and other holy things to show that all gods and kings are just creations of man and therefore just exist as constructs. It's to show how gods and kings wouldn't exist without man, hence "no gods or kings, only man" being his MO.

      @ExtremelyOffensive Bioshock is filled to the brim with ironic symbolism like that. Ryan's whole entire "No gods, no masters" thing is absolutely bullshit if you actually analyze it. Ryan, along with every other rich individual in rapture, were literally trying to become gods, kings, and masters by intentionally creating an exploitative hierarchical society. It's the purest form of hypocrisy.
      They wanted absolute power over others, no matter what.

    What i love about this song are the lyrics" we'll go down with our sinking paradis" it makes me think of how the city has fallen into the chaotic nightmare that it is now, how the people of rapture became the drug addicted monstrosities they are now roaming the city in search of adam and the lyrics" we turn our hopes to the skies" it makes me think of those who want to escape from the nightmare that is rapture, as if pleading for someone to save them. What is sad is that the people who came to rapture believed they were going to a better place not only for themselves but their families as well, where no crime or war would take place only find themselves trapped in a place made out of nightmares.

      Starcraftgamer97 How do I put this kindly, you have no understanding of what you just typed, it's the equivalent of saying no offence before you insult or criticise someone, you don't say it when you're going to compliment someone, it's redundant.

      CliffEdge Seriously? Did you not understand the joke? Would you kindly is Referencing Andrew Ryan and Frank Fontain's mental control over Jack. It is his literal trigger word that makes him do whatever they say. Fucking Awesome is in reference to me saying how awesome JT Machinima is. It's called a joke, it's called knowledge of the game. So I think you have no understanding and are the actual asshole. GG stranger, GG. Whatever happened to education? Simple: nothing happened to it.
