Lyrics   (the highlighted part is explanation)

Hello Ms. & Mister I go by the name of Punisher 

 .      My situation I would consider myself a Rapper

       With my graduation slip from Hip Hop culture

  Doubters whatever they can’t really stop you forever

    Only Child Mild Friction Cause I ain’t  got no sisters

   But I consider my friends family when we are together

       Him,He,She,Her doesn’t matter the gender

   I believe  everyone knows what’s best and what’s better

     Combining the element to generate my content

The thing is I’m impatient & need some of that compliment

The Union sent me the text “Compete with all the Continents”

They said I got raw talent so I   accept the challenge

Role the beat on my feet I’m back on the street now

The way I composed these lyrics on the sheets you’ll be asking  how

Making all the lyricist man yes they give me wows

Yeah you know I live and die by the  crowd peace

“I know no defeat” bro   now that’s cap

“Failure’s the foundation” baby now that’s rap

One day I succeed now that’s a matter of  fact

Don’t mind the people who’d call me a stupid black cat

Cash stack in the rat race like a Nas(car) track 

[Nascar is a racing competition while nas track has 2 meanings in this context 1. The racing track 2. A tribute to Nas a famous Rapper]

The way I adapt the track you can call it abstract

Give haters a map cause I call this a Mismatch 

Mismatch is a basketball term used to describe when a weaker opponent is defending a stronger opponent 

Most of the time I’m a fader now it’s time to diss back

(Diss is when a rapper decides to go back at another rapper )

            Shark Attack like Shaq I dominate

     Look at the younger kids here trying to imitate

     Ain’t no scammer dumper I ain’t no click bait

  Give the boost to the dudes like I’m drinking gatorade

          Mark the date Month 8 August First

        Remember that’s my Birthday when you press search

                 Member of the lyricist club has to rest first

  Cause unlike mumble rappers I don’t stumble on words (peace)

Submission Rationale

Hi, I'm Punn next year I will be attending Junior year at Ruamrudee International School. For this competition,
I've thought for a long time about how I would interpret and how I would present myself as an individual according to the
concept. I have decided to write a rap as I feel 1. It could explain me as an individual the most and 2. I can show my level of
creativity through different measures present in the prompt.
