Story behind the song
Honestly? My intentions were to shut a lot of these other rappers up. I got sick of hearing weak rappers w/simple rhyme schemes & pre-school lyrics. So I wanted to stake my claim as not simply "a new artist", but as a heavyweight that can go blow for blow with the best in the game. so the lyrics and content had to be the shit, but i had to rip it on another level too.
the 1st verse tells the "origin of Attila", dating back to my fall when trying to conquer ancient Atlantis. It's kinda like the prelude to a saga (you'll just haveta keep in touch for that). The 2nd verse touches on my grand scheme to conquer the planet, starting with America. I won't ruin it, but check out the lyrics and read between the lines. And the 3rd verse touches on my intentions to conquer the rap game.
Lyrics
Konquest
(interlude)
Finally, after years of endless plotting
the Times of Peace are over
and the Age of Destruction has begun
After 28,000 years of livin in a lack fear
tha Lord of Destruction's finally returned
i'm leavin a trail of flames and innocents slain
cuz pain is my only concern
i must redeem myself and succeed in my quest
of bringin death to tha planet
ya'll niggaz don't understand it
bitch, i died cuz i tried to conquer Atlantis
they warned me that my plan was outlandish
told me that my clan won't withstand it
fuck it, tha empire must be expanded!
prepare for the invasion, bitch i command it!!
we came through tha land and sea, my vanity
made me think it was goin as i planned it
instead we were ambushed tha second we landed
with bolts of electric from photon cannons
they tore through my army like tha wrath of a Mantis
my strategy crumbled, my soldiers had panicked
me dreams of a victory vanished
i tried to get away but i couldn't cuz my wings were too damaged
damn! they managed to hand me defeat
then they banished me to a prison of ice
before i died i had visions i might
return once again to a criminal life
my subliminal might let me invade tha mind
of a voodoo priest to resurrect what was left
as i slowly returned to tha flesh i confess
i could feel my soul burnin from tha stress, nevertheless
i stood on a ledge then over tha edge
started grinnin while surrounded by tha stench of death
i let out a loud roar and started beatin on my chest
cuz tha time has finally come for conquest
(interlude)
You thought you could stop me, huh?
Sent your fuckin soldiers to infiltrate my army
and destroy me from within.
Fools, my rise to power cannot be stopped
I dream of erupting flames and causing eternal pain
but wait, i must put aside these cravings
so i can prepare the invasion
enacting plots that threaten all of creation
i fear this nation's too strong for me to break
so i traveled back in time for an assassination
President Truman's tha target i'm chasin
because he's the one that took this nation to greatness
i caught up with him in tha Amazon
where he was plottin with officials from tha local clergy
i'm certain that i could kill him from where i'm lurkin
but fuck that, i gotta do this shit in person
i slipped through tha window like a phantom in tha halls
when i came to tha room where they were meeting with tha bitch
i began the assault as they looked on in disbelief
an released all my fury like a schizophrenic beast
projectin death with tha bullets from my Tec
infected his chest with a hollowpoint injection
his soldiers couldn't protect him, their bullets i'm deflectin
i let my machete meet their necks then i left em
overwhelmed by tha devestation
with nothin to blame but their own hesitation
cursin fate cuz tha head of their nation
had just become the victim of my first revelation
they died to tha sound of me laughin and when i stopped hackin
and slashin i filled with satisfaction
reduced their bodiez to ashes
cuz them niggaz suffered tha wrath of a Kashville Assassin
consumed by tha madness i slowly imagined
tha path that i just created
spreadin tha word of Kane to these pagans
cuz i was sent to conquer this fuckin nation
(interlude)
now that i've returned, my first mission
is the complete conquest of this music industry.
But... but something's wrong.
Things are not the way i remember them to be
Tha fuck happened to this music business? I leave for a minute
and when i come back, what tha fuck do i witness?!
rappers that used to be vicious
have now been replaced by kids and sensitive bitchez
doin relationship songs for these hoez
while they're prancin around in their own videos
don't these niggaz know that their souls have been sold
from tha second that they watered down their flows for some dough?
but under my rule, tha underground will conquer all
enslaved by tha mainst
