about

This was the track I would usually use to open my shows and get people used to the idea. Some of it is very silly and I'm embarrassed by but I have to admit it was fun to do on stage!

lyrics

I've never been too good at the self-referential
Building hype for my type requires power massive, exponential
Gasoline ignites the fire, revving from an engine
My name is Doc Isaac, time to begin the mission

Slipping through the cracks, to show up on the stage.
Just A Boy and His Game Boy, a magitek sage
Too much arcade on his brain, a slave to this game.
Not just showcasing nerdy, I'm defining to acclaim.

As The pulse channel kicks, you think you know the drill,
The thrill is in your veins, a buildup brings a chill
This fever will kill, but Mario can keep his pills,
All you really need now is for Doc's flow to spill


From the midwest, I came to the southeast
Producing beats like an Altered Beast
A Space Harrier burying the competition, doing as I please

Hiding behind the curtain, lookin,
Certain my notions will keep you turning
I'm the game genie connecting directly into your feed

And everyone can't resist
Making a sample to this
The Theme is Storm Eagle!

It's not me, it's nerdcore logic
Let's make this crowd go Maverick
My name is Doc Isaac and this is my requisite
Introductory Song defined by the Hip Hop Government.


Enraptured like a poltergeist to a TV screen,
Talkboy next to the speaker, recording on loop Ken's Theme
Sound Effects, Shoryuken, Street Fighter my scene
Making lyrics as I play, linguistics slowly forming

Stories in my head I prefer to bantering
Than fluff and huff and puff, wolves blowing houses over, drunk with forties
Give me meaning listening to all your pipe dreams
While you're shredding all your threads, I'm strengthening my seams

And I don't really pray to Yeezy
I've got my own diety
Ronnie James Dio!

Through the Dark like a Rainbow,
Surprising you with falsetto
My name is Doc Isaac and this is my requisite
Introductory Song defined by the Hip Hop Government.

My name is Doc Isaac and I am here to say,
I like sci-fi, wrestling and anime
You may not think those things worth boasting about in a rap
But that's about all I had where I lived: Halls Had It,

And right here is where I'd make a Firefly joke,
But it's fifteen years old?! That's true folks!
Haunting ghosts in browncoats, they tood the sky from me
Guess we should have read the patch notes before Fox nerfed it completely.

Okay, that's enough of that! Continue!


You may look at me weirdly as I peer down on my screen,
Changing hexadecimal values, around you all the chiptunes sing
The song of my people wielded with nostalgic ring,
Rose tinted glasses will be your new favorite bling

So raise your hands, clap along to the snare
And if you're feeling crazy, add a whoo like Ric Flair.
Now we're playing with power, let's light up this party
Like Spinal Tap, we're gonna turn the volume straight up to B.

You see

I don't care where this goes
Good or bad or Tommy Wiseau,
You're tearing me apart, Lisa!

You're my favorite customers
Let's rock this joint together!
My name is Doc Isaac and this is my requisite
Introductory Song defined by the Hip Hop Government.
