In celebration of Marvel NOW!, Adam WarRock spits a two verse track about the newly relaunched Moon Knight over the instrumental to Fred the Godson’s Prisoner’s Poetry.
As per the rapper’s usual MO, the song was released for free on his site.
[Verse 1]
Don't cry for me because I'm already dead
At least they told that I fell in front of that statue before
The things that I saw in my head
I can't explain, resurrected for a purpose
Picked myself up off the floor
So call it divination or just something to be blessed with
Made me into a man that should never be messed with
Too many voices inside of my head that I contend with
Brought back from exile, Lord gave me redemption
Every crescent phase, every blessing stays
When I get my way
From every building and every shadow is where I stay
Because when the dark comes, well then the moon shines
And when the evil rises up, then that evil dies
But my hand is a vessel, and I'm overflowing
Every scarab I'm throwing
And every single moment
Others try to hide when the night falls
But not I, I shine brighter when the night calls
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Not many others could hold the fist of Khonshu (x3)
Not many others, not many others
In fact the only one's right here
[Hook]
Not many others could hold the fist of Khonshu
And by the light of the moon
Every night what I do
Not many others could hold the fist of Khonshu
And next I'm coming for you
[Verse 2]
Marc Spector, Steven Grant, hail a taxi cab
Maybe on a street corner killing time is where I'm at
I'm watching you, shining light on the dark in you
Because Khonshu told me to do exactly what I'm supposed to do
You hear me, you see me
Yeah I know I wore a white suit in the darkest alleyway
You spot me because I want you to
And so I'm carving up your face
Not because vengeance is the sweetest taste
Because it needs to take place
And so I do it like that
Just a man with a checkered past
A little cash and a whole closet of red flags
A couple scars because my hand to hand
A little messy still trying to get it back
After I died and got my swagger back
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Not many others could hold the fist of Khonshu
It's what I'm telling you, I'm being honest fool
Not many others could hold the fist of Khonshu
They wouldn't want to, they wouldn't want to
[Hook]
The Fist of Khonshu was produced by The Heatmakerz & Sunny Heights.
