In this playful and satirical track, Jay Z dives into the world of anime, specifically mocking the popular manga 'One Piece.' With clever wordplay and humorous comparisons, he reflects on the show’s mediocre aspects while likening Luffy's Gear 5 form to classic Looney Tunes characters, all presented in a catchy rap style.
Verse 1:
Yo, I'm rollin' with the crew, it's gonna be a trip,
One Piece in my mind, thinkin' 'bout that ship,
Luffy wearin’ straw hats, lookin' kinda thin,
Why he gotta stretch like he just broke his skin?
Chorus:
One Piece is so, so mid, can’t you see?
Luffy bouncin’ around like he’s from Looney Tunes, G,
Gear 5 lookin' wild, but it’s just a cartoon,
Raise your flag high, but it’s drownin' in a monsoon.
Verse 2:
Zoro’s out here lost, he can’t find his way,
Sanji in the kitchen, burnin’ shrimp for the day,
Nami’s countin’ berries, while Usopp’s tellin’ tales,
But the hype's just a cover, it’s all just for sale.
Chorus:
One Piece is so, so mid, can’t you see?
Luffy bouncin’ around like he’s from Looney Tunes, G,
Gear 5 lookin' wild, but it’s just a cartoon,
Raise your flag high, but it’s drownin' in a monsoon.
Bridge:
Pirates chasin’ dreams on the Grand Line,
But they’re caught in a loop like some old-time rhyme,
Luffy got the moves, but where’s the ambition?
Just a merry-go-round, no real competition.
Verse 3:
I respect the grind, yeah, I see the appeal,
But sometimes I laugh, can’t help how I feel,
With the antics so crazy, it’s hard to take serious,
One Piece got me wonderin', is it really that curious?
Chorus:
One Piece is so, so mid, can’t you see?
Luffy bouncin’ around like he’s from Looney Tunes, G,
Gear 5 lookin' wild, but it’s just a cartoon,
Raise your flag high, but it’s drownin' in a monsoon.
Outro:
So here’s a toast to the crew, I still watch with a grin,
Appreciate the journey, but it feels like a spin,
One Piece in my heart, but let’s keep it real,
Sometimes it’s all just hype, but what a wild reel.
