Black and Purple (Ravens Playoffs Edition)

If you've heard Wiz Khalifa's "Black and Yellow," but wish it had more of a Baltimore flare, this one's for you.

Lyrics:

Chorus
Yeah, you know what it is
Black and Purple, Black and Purple, Black and Purple, Black and Purple
no one hits bigger than the Baltimore Ravens
Black and Purple, Black and Purple, Black and Purple, Black and Purple
Crab cakes and football is all we do
In the land of Raymond Berry and Johnny U
Crab cakes and football is what we know
As we're scaring our opponents like we're Edgar Allan Poe

Verse1
Ray Rice slash and slither slippery like vasoline
I wish I drafted him, on my fantasy team
Defenders try to catch him even though they know they couldn'
With every slash and cut he leaves 'em stuck in rice pudding
Joe Flacco, chucking bombs yo
To D-Mase, Boldin, Heap, and Hoshemazode
Ha, that's Houshmandzadeh stunting like Haloti Ngata
That D-line got more power than Barack Obama
That vicious D-line, better lookout dude
Suggs, Redding, Ngata, Gregg rushing in to get you
That QB blitz is flying
There ain't no sense in trying
Got everybody jumping off the line like Auto-Tune

Verse 2
Ray Lew, 52, hall of fame middle linebacker from the U
Wearing black and purple turns opponents black and blue
Ozzie knew something man
When he drafted the dude
Ed Reed, on the PUP
But after 6 weeks, back to making history
QB, Joe Flacco
Got the secondary looking wasted off of Natty Boh

Bridge
And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more
How 'bout it Baltimore?
