As I begin to Prepare, I read the inscription engraved on my blade
"Victor of battles convert the souls of the slain to their slave
Be this the fate that I face, I think as I lay in a daze
Then I arise, And begin to wait for the break of the day
I'm aching in pain, Always hated the thought of waitin fa fame
Immortality approaches, I'm focused on staking a claim
And making my name last longer than the flesh on my bone
The clashing moment is what my opponent's dreaded so long
Fearing he'll never go home, Child fatherless, Wife widowed
Flaunting a fake smile as his son shouts "father your my hero"
He's bothered by my spear-So he's practically fighting to die
Look em right in his eyes and speak "I'll give ya wife ya goodbyes"
An right as he cries, I'll end it all with a thrust of my sword
If ya must beg the lord, Cause plees for mercy are justly ignored
All the guts an' the gore will be exposed when I'm slicing this asshole -
Sunlight peaks from behind the curtain, Time to ride to the battle
But first, My armor, I put it on an then I head for my shield
Hop on my horse, "Giddy up...I've got to get to the fields"

--After Arriving At the Battlefield--

The epic battle ensues, Sky full of arrows and I'm gallopin' through
On route to the feud, Until I get attacked right out of the blue
Someones about to get bruised, I think while I'm wielding my arm
Readied to attack, Gaze in his soul and see he's filled with alarm
Decide to strike now, No better time than the present
Still pissed so I'll just vent and send this piece of slime to the heavens
His weapon crashes with mines within seconds, We're intertwine with intentions
On surviving, He unsheathed a dagger, Takes a stab but divine intervention
Kindly prevents him from piercing my armor, I'm enthralled in the fight
Noticed the fatigue effectin' him, So I push forward with all of my might

A powerful strike does the deed that lead to the kid gettin' welt
Thinkin' fight's over as I come to my senses....
                                                                   ....I think he shitted himself

Still Champ.....

born “Romeous” in Greece, live an existence of strife
forced into poverty, living the baron and horrific slave life
never been dealt wealth, and for the poor, it’s a savage land
but was blessed with strength, twice that of an average man
immense power unrestrainable, yet somehow a slave
seemed to be beaten mercilessly, no matter how much I gave
came to the stage, where my rage had to be unleashed
I killed five the day I struck back, just turned into a beast

was about to be beheaded, maybe peace at last
but a wealthy slave dealer seen, and saw potential in that…….*wait, ill take him*

-Gladiator Training-

Forced to fight harder, “no matter how tough the pain gets”
but soon my physical superiority, meant I had no one to train with
after a few days I was ready, going to stand tall, be defiant
but was told the emperor’s son wanted to battle, to “slay the giant”
now I was never a smart man, but even a fool would know
I’d never be allowed to win, there’s only one way it could go
It’s gonna be a fix, I’ll be murdered, my heart filled with sorry
quickly caged, carried off, I’d be battling in the coliseum tomorrow

-Fight Day-
 
An hour before the battle, had been shackled in a room
when five guards busted in to seal my impending doom
stabbed me twenty-four times in the stomach, slashed tendons on arms
ripped calfs, shoulders an eye… and the armour conceals the harm
………..
Dragged out to a roar, emperor’s son been waiting to gut me
my shredded muscles tense, regain strength as the adrenaline’s pumping
body in tatters, that’s not what matters, can feel the force
ask myself can I win, and the answers of course
he charges at me, I side step, then swing the sword
the carnage the gore, blood spurts his head hits the floor
Shocks turn to an uproar, im victorious having fun now
Till I turn my head to the emperors box, and I see the “thumbs down”

*-Romeous was later hanged, but his legendary stature and strength forever lives on-*

Keep it or don't....either way no-one bitch

Dal, Dope verse had me hooked throughout and had some real nice lines, flow seemed off to me at points but the imagery and general content made up for that fact, some nice multi's. The story you told and incorporated into the drop made it a nice read and kept me interested.

Woods, like pfief stated your verse didn't seem origonal because it was almost identical to the movie gladiator, seems as if you watched that and took your idea's from it rather than using it and incorporating your own idea's view of the subject into the drop. Your flow was on point and you had some nice lines but had no originality at all imo, where'as your drops usually have just that, now call it a hate, dickriding vote but im preety sure you'll agree. Nice verse but lacked imagery and originality.

Overall, Ima have to go with dal, as i enjoyed reading his verse more due to the fact the imagery seemed better imo and it was a more origonal verse hence me enjoying the read more, it just seemed to have more feeling to it.

Vote - Dal

Dal: original story, even had a more, personal perspective ofwhat wouldbein the mind of a gladiator, i doubt they were all as they were portayed in the movies, so using words like...asshole, gave him more character. was a good read, incorperated nice multis and some tightlines.

Woods: I would have expected better from you defending the title, story turned out to be predictable, as we all knew this dude was gonna die after the 2nd verse. and like the votes above, I can see this being a spin off of gladiator. simple lines, no multies that stood out.

sooo.. Dal gets the final vote

i find it hard to believe you've never seen gladiator, yet your verse was almost identical to the ending of the movie...

if you were a little too influenced by the movie... grow a pair and admit it... dont try and say you never saw such a high-grossing, world-renowned film like gladiator... every one has seen gladiator... shit
