about

Celebrating the release of the second instalment of the Dishonored game series, Critical Strike has created a rap track to accompany it.

With an old school sound and lyrics that focus on both Corvo and Emily, this track is perfect for any fans of the game. Check out the lyric video below and see how many game references you can spot!

lyrics

They had me locked down but now I’m back as Corvo
I was an outlaw who went to war to restore thrones
I was dishonored too so I came to kill all foes
I summon up these rats and they be eating on your bones
So leave the throne alone it’s only owner is Emily
I protect the empress so it’s death to an enemy
Said I murdered her mother and I was framed for the felony
Imprisoned by Burrows now his reign is a memory
I became an assassin and I gave Emily lessons
Now my powers are mastered, I can upgrade my possessions
If the crown is in question, I’m going hard with the mission
I can move in a blink and I’m just too dark with the vision
I’m seeing blood flies as soon as I end lives
So I gotta hide the body as soon as them men dies
I’m taking out these villains I’m willing to bend time
Royal protector of the isles, I kill to defend mine

Ay, Empire got hit with the cool
They locked me up and didn’t know what to do
Told the Empress I’d get the throne back to you
And let the world know the truth that I was dishonored too
Ay, Empire got hit with the cool
They locked me up and didn’t know what to do
Told the Empress I’d get the throne back to you
And let the world know the truth that I was dishonored too

Ya now rocking with the best, this is Empress Emily
And with all I’ve done
All I don’t care what they telling me
Now I’ve been dethroned, I’m saying death is the penalty
So I ride all my enemies, let the people remember me
Got them all mesmerised while they stare at the void
I got love for the isles I don’t want it destroyed
I refuse to go quietly so they getting annoyed
But my domino effect is what they couldn’t avoid
And i know this for certain that they murdered my mother
Don’t know why they would hurt her, this I’m yet to discover
This unworldly usurper started giving me bother
Now I only work with corvo cause I won’t trust no other
I copied his manner now my far reach is stranger
Creating dopplegangers when there’s trouble and danger
They said training would change her
But the haters are gassing
I went from here to the throne to the empress assassin

Ay empire got hit with the cool
I was young and didn’t know what to do
I’m gonna fight back and get the throne back soon
And let the world know the truth that I was dishonoured too
Ay empire got hit with the cool
I was young and didn’t know what to do
I’m gonna fight back and get the throne back soon
And let the world know the truth that I was dishonoured too

Shadow walk with me
I’ve got the outlaw mark on me
Look at the empire now
We are gonna ride or die
Radada die die die die die
Walk with me
Look at the outlaw mark on me
Look at the empire now
We are gonna ride or die
Radada die die die die die

Empire got hit with the cool (Hit with the cool)
They locked me up and didn’t know what to do (I didn’t know what to do)
Told the Empress I’d get the throne back to you (Yeah)
And let the world know the truth that I was dishonored too (Oh no)
Ay, Empired got hit with the cool (I got hit with the cool)
They locked me up and didn’t know what to do (I didn’t know what to do)
Told the Empress I’d get the throne back to you (Yeah)
And let the world know the truth that I was dishonored too (Yeah)

Ay empire got hit with the cool (Got hit with the cool)
I was young and didn’t know what to do (So yeah yeah)
I’m gonna fight back and get the throne back soon (Oh)
And let the world know the truth that I was dishonoured too (Yeah)
Ay empire got hit with the cool (Hit with the cool)
I was young and didn’t know what to do (I didn’t know what to do)
I’m gonna fight back and get the throne back soon (yeah)
And let the world know the truth that I was dishonoured too
