Every day that drifts by without gripping a die its an X on my cal and I’ll tell you why, i got stacks of character sheets and the stats are really sweet my homie asked if i wanted to meet some lovely ladies at the bar for a drink, I had to stop and think, ahumm is this my kind of activity, will this encounter gain me XP. Chorus: rolling im not talking Mary Jane spliffs listen up bitch i roll critical hits. I'd rather be rolling I'm not cruising in a hot ride I drop plenty heat with polyhedron di I'd rather be rolling but not the ten pin kind I bowl ropers down and make they rocky asses mine I'd rather be rolling my party crawls mad deep, I love my dice so much they in my hand when I sleep Roll out the dough, I love pizza and scones, I prefer rollin bones and playing retro clones. Pastry chefs bring croissants and tarts, but my heart”s in game mechanics, tables & charts Fine dining and eating rare steaks don’t compare to killing kings and riding fire drakes I know you mean well in bringing me here, but I rather roll saves than drink craft beer Chorus: rolling im not talking Mary Jane spliffs listen up bitch i roll critical hits. I'd rather be rolling I'm not cruising in a hot ride I drop plenty heat with polyhedron di I'd rather be rolling but not the ten pin kind I bowl ropers down and make they rocky asses mine I'd rather be rolling my party crawls mad deep, I love my dice so much they in my hand when I sleep New movies out tonight the ladies are going ryan goslings new romantic comedy is showin but i’m blowin them off, straight ignorin they scoff, cause the DM’s taking the group to castle Ravenloft, home girls suggestin mid movie neckin,I’m emoji textin a shrug, I prefer to battle strahd, I could kill some popcorn, but I’ll kill dark lords and maybe a demi god. Chorus: rolling im not talking Mary Jane spliffs listen up bitch i roll critical hits. I'd rather be rolling I'm not cruising in a hot ride I drop plenty heat with polyhedron di I'd rather be rolling but not the ten pin kind I bowl ropers down and make they rocky asses mine I'd rather be rolling my party crawls mad deep, I love my dice so much they in my hand when I sleep We roll hard on the battlemat, magic and combat, while you battle rap inside your mom's laundromat The Rolling Stones can’t roll with us, please, We stab Jagger with a dagger and kick Keith in his teeth.. Rollin’ down the street in my six-four? naw I’d rather roll dice and kill a cave troll d6 and d4 is what I seize We escaped the nine hells to DM and MC Chorus: rolling im not talking Mary Jane spliffs listen up bitch i roll critical hits. I'd rather be rolling I'm not cruising in a hot ride I drop plenty heat with polyhedron di I'd rather be rolling but not the ten pin kind I bowl ropers down and make they rocky asses mine I'd rather be rolling my party crawls mad deep, I love my dice so much they in my hand when I sleep

Battle Prep 02:44
Yo Dragon Warrior What up Tiger Wizard? Let’s get geared up for this shit. Fuck yeah You know how we do Always. First thing everyday I prepare my list, bristling silos full of missiles that always hit, Level one spell slots don’t mean a thing to me, because everythings empowered meta magic ain’t free, I spent my GP on these Vecna pieces, with a hand around my neck my ring game increases, I’m the OG, OP mage of your dreams and my O T T O make you dance till you scream. It’s irresistible. Yo, check out my man, Dragon Warrior Pick up the whetstone and sharpen the blade. If we don’t start murdering we don’t get paid. Lace up my boots of swiftness, never listless, clearing dungeon halls, never leave a witness Place my helm of brilliance upon my head, flaming weapons turn the battlefield bloody red Dragonscale on my bracers of relentless might, I’ll destroy an army, I’m the tank in every fight Kill em all and let other gods sort them out Shit, you know any good wizards? You know anybody? What up Tiger Wizard! Mordankainan and Bigby auto dial on my cell but I only call lightning ring the doorbell to hell, i spit fireballs twice as big as your home, a wizard smoked you out we get ioun stoned, I’m decked out with many things dealing shuffled bones, and when your card is pulled we savoring the groans, I’m the coldest of cones my pointed hat is so icy, Misty step off son fore Dragon Warrior gets Knifey, He’s gonna cut you I slit throats like its going outta style. But it ain’t Yo bring the heat on this one son! Always I know you do Vorpal blade martial forms go Snicker-snack, fill the slaying arrows, quill on my back Returning throwing axes line my hips my disciples touch their living God, prayer on their lips Grab the spear I stole from Odin, the hammer of Thor, reveal the yellow sign I took from Hastur Tiger Wizard gives me haste, and strength of the bull, we burst into the tavern. Barkeep make my cup full

0:20 (first verse) I play it reckless, fast and loose Have my munchkin checklist, and elvenkind boots I can see it in his eyes, DM wants me dead A lawyer of rules, twisting words that he said Escaped whirlpools, Charybdis and kraken Gaining XP through slashin” & hackin’ Sure, I bust into goblin tribes I kick down doors and murder their wives But a white dragon is a little bit different did no planning, I rush in all belligerent I'm turned to ice, my reflexes slowed I'm failed by the dice and my airship explodes Fall through the sky gonna lose ten levels Time to say goodbye I'm about to meet the devil I shatter into pieces as I strike the ground Life suddenly ceases, my final combat round 1:00 (Chorus): DM killed my character today torn up my sheet while my friends all get to play I hide my tears, my grief remains unseen I hear evil laughter from behind the DM screen 1:20 (Verse 2) starting with stacked stats I rolled 3 16’s, Half orc level one with strength 18, takes no shit full plate legit plus my great swords large 3d6 and keen, Amazing min max muscle murder machine, by level 4 i’m a beefcake like you’ve never seen, hard boiled body oiled orc ladies like cobras coiled, to spring on my lean mean slightly tinted green thing, but I keep my armor on I’ve got no time to don, four minute wait for full plate c’mon, I get into battle hastily if you’re smart you cast haste on me, plus my dex is so high my initiative is crazy, my sword point break your bones like swayze, I bask in the blood as I complete my final slash, Is there a battle in this realm that can pose a real task? DM says since you ask, Well here’s the terrasque. 2:01(Chorus): DM killed my character today torn up my sheet while my friends all get to play I hide my tears, my grief remains unseen I hear evil laughter from behind the DM screen 2:21 (Verse 3): I rolled a critical fail in the final boss fight DM pushed me off a rail and impaled me on a pike I asked for a death save but DM just shook his head Lights out unlucky loser you’re 100 percent dead. Back in the OSR taking on Stonehell First level characters, one by one they fell Poison gases, killing all the classes Fighters and clerics sacrificed in Black Masses My half giant monk was trying to do the right thing Against slaver guards with morals quite frightening DM says it makes sense, so nobody questions Abandoned by the party executed between sessions. Sometimes it's me on a PC murder spree Even if you rest I'll kill you in your sleep Living statues punch you in half Follow every TPK with a maniacal laugh 3:01 (Chorus) DM killed my character today torn up my sheet while my friends all get to play I hide my tears, my grief remains unseen I hear evil laughter from behind the DM screen

I decorated every inch of this labyrinth, it’s my feng shui that gets me laid, the pungent stank of dank virgin ladies, knock em up, eat them up, and then eat our babies, a potpourri of terror, a bouquet of fear a metro sexual minotaur, look over here, my toothpaste base is guts from a chaste maidens waist then laced with the remains of the same maidens face, cause I love the taste.
