LYRICS BELOW:

[Verse One]
I play the NES
Yes, I'm reppin' the best
And yeah, I slay the rest
Like there's an S on my chest
If you think my rhymes are weak
You better think again
Quite the "Contra"-ry
I'm like a rap game "Mega Man"
I got my light gun
It's really somethin'
You other rappers are sitting ducks
And I'm huntin'
I'll bring you all down
Don't need a blood hound
I'll strangle you myself
And bury you under the ground
I got the "Gyromite" (might)
Of 1,000 men
Even Metroids freeze
When I pick up a pen
I'm on track
To destroy opposition
Now tell me...Can you even offer
The slightest of competition
I'm Copperhead
And I'm ahead of the game
I go so hard
I even put "Battletoads" to shame
Ryu Hayabusa
Ain't got shit on me
Ninja Gai-done for
That much is plain to see
If you think you got what it takes
To scale my tower
You should know what you're up against
I'm playing with power
And I don't need no Genie
Just to fuck with the game
I'll do it all myself
And straight up earn the fame

[Hook]
N-I-N-T-E-N-D-O
Copperhead is the name on the track
Remember that when I grow like Mario
Now, I said
N-I-N-T-E-N-D-O
Copperhead is the name on the track
Remember that when I grow like Mario

[Verse Two]
Mark my words,
I'll punch you out like Tyson
You'll be eating the dirt
Because you suck like a Dyson
If my rhymes are ailing you
And making you ill,
I'll have my buddy Dr. Mario
Prescribe you a pill
Screw a power-up, you can't match me! Shiiiit,
Try to step to me, I'll take you out in one hiiiit,
Screw a cheat code, you're all goin' down hill
I'll stomp on all y'all, hot on your trail like Bullet Bill
Up up, down down, left right, 
Left right, B A, start
Your extra lives won't last
I'm gonna tear you apart
"Here Lies 'the game'
Beaten to death"
I ain't stoppin' 'til I know
That you've taken your last breath
J-U-S-T-I-N, I think you know
Where I'm going, but I'll say it again
B-A-I-L-E-Y, seein' all the girls strip
And makin' grown men cry

[Hook]
N-I-N-T-E-N-D-O
Copperhead is the name on the track
Remember that when I grow like Mario
Now, I said
N-I-N-T-E-N-D-O
Copperhead is the name on the track
Remember that when I grow like Mario

[Verse Three]
I kick it old school
Bringing 8-Bit back
You'll remember me, when you see me
Make hit tracks
You want a backstage pass?
Man, kiss my ass
You never heard of moochers?
Guess you missed that class
Fuck it, I'm mad
I'm burnt like a welder
More angry than Link
When dudes be callin' him Zelda
But still, I ain't even at 100
Yeah, get this,
I'm holdin' myself back
Like the line piece in Tetris
If I go all out
Bitch, you'd be already done
You'd be flashin' panties
Like the girl in Double Dragon
Shit, I'm it,
The last thing you ever see
Make peace with yourself
Call this your Final Fantasy
You don't stand a chance
And I think you know
I'm gonna win this thing
Faster than a Tecmo Bowl
Admit it, you mother fuckers
Just don't get it
I don't need a password
'Cause I just can't quit it

[Hook]
N-I-N-T-E-N-D-O
Copperhead is the name on the track
Remember that when I grow like Mario
Now, I said
N-I-N-T-E-N-D-O
Copperhead is the name on the track
Remember that when I grow like Mario
N-I-N-T-E-N-D-O
Copperhead is the name on the track
Remember that when I grow like Mario
Now, I said
N-I-N-T-E-N-D-O
Copperhead is the name on the track
Remember that when I grow like Mario
