Lyrics for those interested (Yeah yeah yeah oh) Chemical catalyst rattling ever hazardous Subdued by all my memories, but never been a pacifist So quick to put up the fist It's hard to resist, but I just might lose control So shoot and I never do miss I gotta take risks if I wanna have it all So let go of the poison the venom I'm sinning I'm sinning The voices are spinning with the visions all written I got the pictures of my prophecy Develop my philosophy I woke up in the morning; told the world to get back off of me Yeah Still the nightmares creeping up at night I'm a fragment in the mirror See in black and white Like who is me and who is gonna take me over My soul is my soul in the eyes of the beholder Yeah, and now there's darkness in the chaos I try to see the light Hope the positives will pay off Ain't no time for stressing When the time is of the essence Take these two fists and swing em' back in your direction (Whoo!) Cuz that's the way I got it And don't the sound of doom always sound so melodic Looking to the future know the end is coming here Even though I'm standing tall in the face of all this fear Clear visions, serving life like a sentence I gotta stay strong that's the reason I'm so vicious A barking dog, take it all, never fall You ringing for the champ, then I'm the one who get the call So let me tell you a li'l something about this life You can commit to the game and you can commit to fight But the thing is that with every passing of the night Nobody actually makes it out of this world alive So what you gotta do is put your powers to the test Time is passing so you better spend your time the best So who you gonna be when the reaper come knockin' Actions speak louder than words so stop talkin' (Yeah) So watch me break out of this cage I fight now I want change (Yeah) And this the passing of the days So get back and just get out my way (Yeah) So watch me break out of this cage I fight now I want change (Yeah) And this the passing of the days So get back and just get out my way (Whoo!)
Let's be honest, Street Fighter has always had kind of a weaker story, but gameplay is the key. However, I genuinely really want to see development in Ed's character. He actually is very interesting.
Holy crap. Fought an Ed the other day and this theme came on. I was so into the song because it caught me so off guard that I lost horribly. Gonna play Ed now. FANTASTIC theme by the composer.
I used to hate this song, but on a whim, I decided to revisit it and pay attention to the lyrics. I was impressed with Cal's penmanship at how this song gives me better insight of Ed's personality, fears and motivations than his own game does.
It just fits so well when he's fighting. Its like those in boxin movies where its the round where botb fighters are exchanging blows and dodging and shit like that.
s Daniel Lindholm, you're the dude that made The Mercenaries theme for Resident Evil 6 right? By the way since you produced this, who's the rapper that's rapping this? I've been curious to know if they have more music because this beat is siiiiiick!
NeoMaverick13 hello there. Yes, that's correct. Did some of the music including Mercenaries for RE6. For this song I produced the music, while the lyrics and rap was performed by Caleb Combs. And now lately I did the music for Menat's theme as well. :) Have a good one, follow me here on YT and on twitter @dropkickmonk3y
Very likely it will. Characters and add-ons tend to come with extra music, and it would be a huge missed opportunity for Capcom to not include this theme with Ed's DLC, considering SF6's conceptual theme.
It was based on Lose Yourself, but redone to distance itself from it in every way. No rock bass. A sliding note up and down, indicating his psycho powers. The orchestra is not a sample. It’s a dynamic orchestration giving Ed the focus. The piano represents his true loneliness in the world. But the words of Caleb Combs puts you in Ed’s psyche and he troubles, wonders and attitude. He wants to do good in the world and not succumb to the darkness. He will fight it even if it kills him. He has an inner battle he’s facing. He beats his own rhythm, living on borrowed time.
I dont even play Ed, I have a friend who is beast with him. We 1v1 and he always wins, but I dont get too salty because this theme is in the background.
Balrog, the lone black Hebrew character, the indomitable Buffalo Soldier, the descendant of slaves and indigenous Mesoamericans, literally freeing a blonde blue-eyed child from bondage to Shadaloo then raising him as his own son... Capcom is finally learning what character depth and development mean. Bravo 👏
I believe Balrog and Ed's relationship is based on Dr. Dre and Eminem's friendship. Dre discovered Eminem and signed him to his record. The rest is history

His ‘cade stick’s sweaty Nooch weak Spams his heavies His V-tri-ger is filled up already E-X D-P He’s tilted But on the surface he looks calm and ready To rank up But he keeps on forgetting Funda-men-tals He’s in the corner now He inputs DP But the move won’t come out I’m not doing the rest
I feel Ed shouldn't really be put into a Neo Shadaloo, he's more represent a will to overcome the past karma, he owns his inherited power, and trauma being a former clone for Bison/Dictator, but owning himself and embracing power to change his fate. His separation from Balrog/Boxer is his way of saying no to the repeating history, he feels waaaay more like the future of street fighter than Luke, even Alex, because he truly represent change. At least this is what enters my head when I listen to this track.
