[RZA] 
Turn my FUCKIN headphones up! 
Aiyyo nurse, bring the patient in, strap him down 
Inject the serum into the tip of his cerebelum 
70 cc's of denji should brain-accel him 
Nurse, increase the IV 
(But doc that may kill him!) 
Word, we got technology, we can rebuild him 
Strength of the ox, slickness of the fox 
Electrical brain waves being charged by the dreadlocks 
Audio dynamic vocal box 
Inside the black oval, won't be a beat that my son couldn't flow to 
Call Prince Paul to inject De La Soulful 
(Doc, his heart is beating too fast!) 
Nurse I told you! 
Decrease the brain battery, more gamma to the chest cavity 
Put the DNA code in every farrel inhis anatomy 
Heart of the conquerers, fighting force like Joe Blanca 
Interscope will never be the same, we just created a MONSTER! 

[Last Emperor] 
A mysterious man with a mysterious past 
Who came back from the dead to kick some serious ass 
I clearance a path, blast glocks, raps whatever 
RZA put my DNA blocks back together 
And conducted, something interpenetrable by heaters 
Made from the world's great Ancient leaders 
Rzarector, I wanna thank you for giving me 
A second chance at life, you've uprisen me 
To separate the wise art from the wizardry 
And take revenge on those who imprison me 
In the East, the location was well-hidden 
My corpse was torn, rotted, bullet-ridden 
There's still an after tast from the poison I was given 
(Last Emperor) 
Yes master, what is thy bidding? 

[RZA] 
Go barbarian like thunder 
I'll wrap these niggas up like mummra 
Off of guitar samples of Prince Paul mixed with Sun-Ra 
Scatter to the four corners 
Make these bitch rappers MOURNERS 
Let em know son, they time of God is upon us 
And if they try to form a challenge throw em off balance 

[Last Emperor] 
I snatch the mic with my talons 
Prepare to meet this challenge 
Break the sacred seal and release these ancient talents 
I ride the track and leave MC's fully damaged 
Like Hannibal on the back of a black wooly mammoth 
I was banished, they panicked that the words that I said 
I split backs wit the war axe of Eric the Red 
Until I get tax exemption, redemption from cruel people 
The Last Emperor but I'm not Hiro Hitu 
More like Manson Musa 
You don't get the chance to use a 
Primative weapon on this microphone stand abuser 
Should you choose ta whip out the banger 
This archaic warrior responds with anger 
I stop fighter planes before they even leave their hangars 
And I'm sick enough to pull a con/Kahn job like Genghis 
I weave tales of war, legend and folklore 
Things will never be as they were once before 
Witness the second coming of the Last Emperor 
For now and forever, cursed to walk the earth once more
