Dan Bull - Bastion Lyrics






[Verse 1:]
The Kid awoke in bed, with a dopey head
Filled with a smokey blend of inner hope and dread
But he's not hung over yet, still has his sanity
But tragically, the land that he inhabits has been damaged deeply
The ravage wreaked with savagery would leave him
Wishing he had had a dream but sadly this is real: the Calamity
Brutality against humanity, depravity
Dang, he'll need a little more than bandage for this malady
Disaster has the people abandoning morality
It's a little too late to handle diplomatically
The situation thus demands a different strategy
A mission that'll leave you battling with gravity
Brandishing battering rams
Calamity Cannons with hammers and fangs
From Mancer to Langston and Zand
There ain't a more masterful rapper than Dan
The man that's ransacking your ranch olives?
I'm not going to be passing the branch
You're only fuelling my fire
And I've got gas in the tank

[Hook:]
Drank a Black Tonic
Sampled the track and rapped on it
I've been to the brink
And the Bastion's coming back from it
Drank a Black Tonic
Sampled the track and rapped on it
I've been to the brink
And the Bastion's coming back from it

[Verse 2:]
Oi
I visit the Shrine, hit the Distillery
Stock up on Spirits and Wine, liquid artillery
Then I hit a Windbag with such a vicious impact
That I split the very atoms that keep him intact
Think back
To who knows where, you're going to get
Pimp slapped
If you don't care
I'll aim the Breaker's Bow straight at your face
And break your nasal bone (nose)
The Stranger throws flaming flows
And vocal flame bellows
It's the way it goes, terrain shaking from the Cael blows
While I'm shooting guys, neutralise the threat that they'll pose
And we had ought to take the Galleon Mortar from the sailboats
Before the floor crumbles away like so much stale toast
Thrust a Brusher's Pike, right in the bushes like:
"Have we not met before? You must have a lookalike"
Kid's just another guy following a call to action
He'd give up his life for the Bastion
I

[Hook]

[Outro:]
We're coming back...
We're coming back now
You don't need to play a new game, trust
Just boot up New Game Plus
You don't need to play a new game, trust
Just boot up New Game Plus
We're coming back now

    This is actually one of my favourite songs of Dan's, I don't know what makes it so good, but I love it!

    A.... ....

    that beat is just sick buddy ... thats probably the reason

  16. l.... g....

    I finished all of normal and hard bastion I LOVED IT

  17. S.... B....

    I thought on spotify that this was a really dark cover shooter!

  18. P.... C....

  19. T.... K....

    with a side of salt

  20. K.... ....

    b.... ....

  25. G.... T....

    Came here a year later expecting disappointed Overwatch comments.

    G.... T....

    people look at thumbnails?

  26. J.... H....

    I was so happy when I found this because this is one of my favorite games!

  28. R.... M....

    play of the game

    R.... M....

    This fucker as bastion

    R.... M....

    +Daan Verberne *Dan Bull

  29. D.... O....

    Someone nerf this

  30. M.... S....

    insturmental plx ;>

  31. f.... w....

    i jut realized something, shouldn't it be cael hammer with an s sound instead of with a c sound?

  32. C.... B....

    The chorus was really annoying, but it was otherwise good

    C.... B....

    They usually are. Idk why but the chorus' are terrible with dan.

  33. C.... ....

    This game and its soundtrack was great.

    C.... ....

    I haven't played the game , though I want it really bad.

  34. J.... ....

    I hated overhead games with a passion. But this game is truly a masterpiece.

  35. D.... D....

    this beatz so derrrp... dope b dub

  36. A.... f....

    For once the game is actually better than Dan's rap.

  37. M.... C....

    This is giving me so many chills!

  38. A.... ....

    Not a big deal, but I'm pretty sure that Cael is pronounced like sail, but with a bit more emphasis on the a. It's used by the people of Caelondia, and so I'd guess it has similar pronunciation to the name of the kingdom.

  39. D.... B....

    pls do a warframe rap

  40. N.... A....

    What is the instrumental? I know the guy is linked in the description but i can't find the exact song

    Dan, how... Just, how... How are you instantly back up on your feet after surgery? You are my favorite rapper, just before Eminem... And i mean it! Your lyrics is so well thought through, and you capture the essence of the game and turn into the perfect song... You're also, really, really fast, and one time i even tried to recreate your GTA V | EPIC RAP, and i did it! I even learned the entire lyrics of the song and managed to sing the entire song without having to take a break... I want to become a rapper when i grow up, and you pushed me through learning that song and now i can sing all the fast parts perfectly! And just in case you're wondering, i'm 10 years old... And i'm not kidding! I hope you believe me!

  90. H.... ....

    And there goes Dan... Even after surgery, he pulls a crazy rap!

  99. T.... W....

    I'd really love to hear you do a rap for Resident Evil. One of my favorite games and all the ones I've seen aren't nearly as well done as your raps.
