It's our birthday, and we'll rap if we want to!

'Cause you know our rhymes are wack
Feel the beat--you can't go back
It's a free game rap attack
If you wanna win then take a crack

GOG.com, as you possibly know, has turned five. In celebration of us turning five, we like to have gifts for you--let's face it, if not for you, we wouldn't be here. So check out the video with our mad phat beatz yo, laid by MC Enigmatic and the famous DJ Russkat, and then if you're inspired, feel free to drop us lyrics of your own! We'll collect all of the best lyrics and award up to four people 5 GOG.com games of their choice in exchange for their permission to use their lyrics in a proper GOG Birthday Rap video. We may even spring for proper moving pictures for the next one!

Please send us all of your submissions (by which we mean: leave a comment below in the forums) by Friday 20 September 2013 at 0900 Eastern time to enter into the contest.

GOG Main Theme:

You wanna be the least restrictive,
like no one ever is!
To not get sued by publishers is your real test,
to troll EA is your cause!

You will travel across the land,
searching for obscure DRM free games!
Each Divinity game to re-release,
slight content changes for 40 bucks!!!

GOG, its you and me!
I know it's our destiny!
GOG, oh, you're my best friend,
ff we don't count Steam or Green Man Gaming!
GOG, a heart so true,
Witcher 2 sales will pull you through!

You charge me and I'll play games!
GOG, stands for Good Old Games,
Stands for Good Old Games,
All Day Long!!!!!
Everybody's Screwed:

Perfect by nature,
icons of hard drive spyware!
Just what we all need,
more restrictions in a world that

never was and never will be!
Have you no shame? Don't you see that I'm poor?
You know you've got everybody screwed!

Look here they come now!
Bow down and pay for add-ons!
Oh how we love you!
No flaws when your EULA threatens to sue me!
But now i know that

SECUROM killed all my disc drives!
You don't know how you've betrayed me,
but somehow you've got everybody screwed!

Without your EULA's where will you hide?
Can't find yourself, lost in your greed!

i know the truth now!
Second sale laws make DRM illegal!
And i don't love you anymore!

It never was and never will be,
you don't know how you've betrayed me!
Instead I'll go to GOG and buy Baldur's Gate!!!!

It never was and never will be!
EULA's are not real and you can't sue me!
GOG only crashed on me ONCE while buying Icewind Dale 2!!!!!!
Sweet Jesus, what unholiness has been wrought before mine eyes?
Gog, oh Gog!
How many games I've bought from your shop?
Don't know, don't know! Well, I'll give it a shot!
Five years ago I started buying a few,
but very quickly, my friend, I was hoarding both the old and new!

No DRM, no trouble, nothing that crap,
They respected me and gave me nothing of black.
Boys and girls, I own so many thanks to Gog.
Happy birthday, let us continue with this mob!

tinyE: What rhymes with "vagina"?
Orange.
[i]Gog.com;
our games are old but our method is fresh.
like blasts from the past with future effects.
we're not the biggest or the baddest but we do it the best.
that's DRM-free,
games as cheap as can be,
all your old favorites,
and the new from the in-die.
our games are just like bacon and some we give out for free,
that's like a fresh roast of ham on your anniversary.
5 years strong;
don't act like you don't know just who we be,
we're the same frackin' studio behind the Witcher...

Games Games, Your Good Old Games!

Games were everything I wanted!
Games were everything a girl could need.
Then you left me brokendiskdrive'd,
now you don't mean a thing to me!

All I wanted was your
Games Games, Your Good Old Games!

Hate is a strong word!
But I really, really, really don't like DRM! (don't like DRM!)
Now that the game's uninstalled,
it still counts as a used up activation slot! (used up like my wallet!)
Bought you on sale but you just brought me down!
Hate is a strong word,
but I really, really, really don't like DRM!
I really don't like DRM!

Thought that everything was perfect!
Isn't that how it's supposed to be?
Thought for a sec that restrictions were all worth it,
but now I think a little differently!

All I wanted was your
Games Games, Your Good Old Games!

lol I have a lot more ideas! So let me know when I've won, I really want Penumbra! (And Warlords Battlecry III!) =)
I decided if I'm going to write a rhyme, I may as well keep it with an old school vibe. So this is the OLD STYLE!

Let me clear my DRIVE,
Download it over here baby pop,
And let all the fly gamers,
Feel their bandwidth mmmm........drop!

Coolin on the comp blowin off some STEAM,
Just me and my games from G-O-G,
A lot of classics, a lot of swag, and a lot playin,
DRM free? for me? No hatin!
Got my hand on the keyboard, got my finger on the mouse,
Got my games on the screen, sound blastin through the house,
Some games got the guns, some games got the hoppin,
We got the kind of games that there's just no stoppin',
Hate the DRM, guess what, there's NONE,
No restrictive ballistics taking away that FUN,
King of the classics, and king of DRM FREE,
Make you the king of your games with that cash money,
Discoverin' some classics you never knew existed,
Buy it, it's yours, or you can straight up gift it,
Bringin back the old school, and that's no jive
G-O-G, here's to another 5



Old school baby!
In the gaming scene today, DRM is the shit,
but when I started it was all about arcade hits,
had no coins in the pocket and no skills to show -
so just a PC from ma' dealer turned me 2 a gaming hoe
couldn't help but dropping boxed styled, old school games like rhymes
'n six years ago I cried, looking back at those times
just couldn't take the hit
that my forehead get's
when I'm thinking bout those fashioned styled games in 8 bits
and afterwards I turned myself to a console
I wasn't back at true gaming several years in a row
I was down and out just like a junkie on crack
when suddenly there shined a star that brought me back:
GOG, the real stuff from the net
that made me realize digi-distribution isn't so bad
Please, just . . . no. This is a really poorly thought-out idea. Maybe in the late 90s or early 90s . . .
I have a penis
I got a cigarette
My dog poo
I'm gonna take a sausage
GOG's giving free games if we rap.
But some of us aren't so cash-strapped.
And rap's not my shtick,
So I'd rather limerick --
Which won't make me sound like a sap!

When gaming I want to-be enjoying,
But DRM is most surely annoying.
Spent time finding a gem,
Just to learn it's got DRM,
That's why G-O-G I'm employing.

Escape the real world for some fiction.
And feed that game buying addiction.
Build up a backlog,
Clearing it's one hard slog.
And leads to real world dereliction!

I sometimes kill time forum mining.
It's too bad there's so much damn whining.
Games not new or not old enough,
No linux, too much indie stuff,
You'd think the whole sky was declining!

Old graphics and sounds are OK.
It's really about good game play.
Your char is low-res?
"Beep-blurp"'s all he says?
If it's fun then I'm willing to pay!

There's some features that GOG needs to get.
Though the tech might not be ready yet.
Fab new time to play games,
Cram fun right in our brains,
Make the set of bad games be the null set!

I understand, to each his own, but... Why on earth rap? Rap? From you? What's next - DRM?

As for lyrics, well, I guess it's easiest job I ever had:

EA sucks, sucks, sucks!
And GoG rocks, rocks, rocks!

Repeat as long as you want.
I like G. O. G.
And I can not lie,
You other brothers can't deny,
That when a great old game walks in with that,
Old time fun, and those 8-bit tunes in your face,
You get sprung, wanna pull out our mice,
Cause you noticed that game was stuffed,
Deep in your chair yo sittin',
You're hooked and you can't stop playin'!
Oh bay-be, I wanna just play-ya,
And snap some screenies,
My homeboys tried to warn me,
But that game I bought makes me so nerd-y,
Oh-oh bump my buttons,
You say you wanna play that thang?

Well play on! Play on!
Cause you ain't an average game-nerd.

I've seen you gamin'
To hell with mad lasin'
Game's tough, rough,
Got me tappin' keys like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of them board games,
Sayin' flat tables are the thing,

Take the average basement nerd and ask him that,
GOG's packin' much back!

So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Got your girlfriend on GOG? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to game that! (Game that!)
GOG that good ole' game!
GOG brings it back.
G.O.G., happy 5th birthday,
Let's hope for another 5 years,
Of games from yesterday,
The sales you have,
Each and every week,
Build up my shelf,
With something to keep,
You get games running,
By any means,
Which brightens up our lives,
And computer screens,
No DRM is a reason,
Why you're best,
No DRM,
Cuts out all the stress,
So in 5 years time,
When you're 10 years old,
You'll still be number 1,
And you'll still win gold.
