Borderline Personality Disorder

Am I Nigma? is it him? Nobody really knows who I Am-gin, read my bio
Backwards words in my profile, someone keeps changing my title, hell if I know
Call me nuts for challenging an idol, I'm schizotypal, hes everything I'm not, an online jock
I Grew up an awkward kid, typical allergies, no peanuts in your elementaries
Patterned instabilities, no social skills, inept, I need advice
She offered again, too nice, it be awkward to say 'no' twice, read my last rites
"Thank you ma'am.. I would love an arcachide"..
Fuck it, I gotta feed, gotta get my weight up
No Epi-pen, just let me swell up, battling a vet
Haven't even earned my stripes yet, but you've got a few?
Nice record, I wouldn't know '14 and 2'
Down the rabbits hole is what I'm looking through
Must hurt a bit, they think this rookies you
But thank you, for accepting this battle, 24 lines holding me back, shackled
That number shouldn't come as a surprise, baffled?
It matches the 24 carvings on my thighs, knives travelled
Personality Disorder, "borderline", but I'm on the better side, why don't you come over?
Red rover red rover, Nigma thinks he's Hova.. what a Yahoo!
Do you wanna know how Google defines you?
'A person or thing that is difficult to understand', give it up man, you're not a professor
Stop trying to lecture me, your lessons will be lost, stoned in history
After 22 lines, Amgin is still a mystery
Can't be 'Jekyll and Hyde', (sorry Law), but nice try
That would imply Nigma and I are the same guy..

Hey. This is Shaun. Oh wait, or is it Shawn? Ah, don’t piss me off

I’m the mythic God spawning fictitious pawns and insist I’m not

I’ve considered stopping but didn’t, fault of conflicting thoughts

Track my IP? Bitch I’m switching spots, giving off hidden plots

So if I’m caught, it diminishes the risk, and this my zone of vengeance

Every clone I’m sending in’s akin to bold intentions, like being

Engrossed in the benefits pent within a broken friendship

Extending a lone appendage to your codependents hopes to end it

Okay, now you see? Thats a circle of pain

A bridge rebuilt just to burn it again

So really, who am I? What's my permanent name

Will I swerve and move to servitude or personal gain?

I want to engage, cleanse my flaws and write,

But when they say I’m not concise, I cross the line

Falsify my flaws and I will contradict this loss of time with

Columbines of fallen idols all across my conscious mind

I’m fond of life but still in hell from dawn to night

Halt and hide inside the guise that walls provide

I stumble towards darkness and then crawl to light

It’s all right there to harness, but I’ve lost this fight


Will I erase a species or cage my demons in villains cells

Will I enrage what feeds me or save what's seen as an infidel

My brain is plagued, relieve me..  This page and leaning quill will help

To kill the other side of me, but scared that I might kill myself...

Amgin-  That shit was funny as hell! And brilliant I honestly think both pieces were a work of art.. I really have nothing bad to say. This is just a matter of who perfected it better.. Ur flow was really nice it kind of reminded me of eminem, A funny but gritty style.. Very nice read. Wow.

Damn! 
That was impressive on both ends, Im starting to think u guys really might be the same people given how close of a battle this was.. I read each one of your drop 4 times... I cant really make a decision... Nigma I gotta give u props because of how beautifully that flowed together and how easy it was to read like I could make it into a song almost... Both drops were incredible and this battle diserves alot more credit definately both of u guys are poets. But i have to give this one to nigma just for the simple fact that his flow topped yours by a teeny tiny bit, but everything else was dead even.. Good job u guys!!

^^way to practice what u preach, my friend. i shall follow suit.

amgin, lmao! very very strange verse. fitting (and i say with no disrespect intended). its like a weird amalgamation of a text battle with topical battle lol. strangely enough....it worked some how! Even the rhyme scheme had this blase attitude lol.  There were quite a bit of clever lines. my favorite was:

Personality Disorder, "borderline", but I'm on the better side, why don't you come over?

^^ that was dope. As far as negatives go, i wish there were a bit more conventional punches thrown in nah mean?


Nigma, you too? lol whats with this topical text hybrid thing haha! regardless a nice verse. I wish there were hard punches. the flow is still as crisp and clever as ever. imagery was dope. Again, for a text battle wish there were more haymakers lol.

vote/nigma. despite the topical/text hybrid, it had cleaner flow and more clever than Amgin.

Amgin you came here with an interesting verse i thought,you done well capturing the
elements of duel personality,i also feel you got at Nigma quite well via humour too,you
displayed some good personal references within this piece that i believe found their
target square enough also,the funny thing i noticed whilst reading your verse was how
direct it seemed,with a subject topic matter being about a split persona,i feel you only dipped your toe in the pool of angles when in reality there's a wealth of concepts to be
had,you could of gone the route of a ramberling madman/Nigma's consciece or (a
quick plug for my crew) an alter ego,you took a route from a solo person's outlook a
1st person view so to type,still you offering to be honest was nice,and creative in parts,a ripe read..


Nigma..

Yep you had some very subtle slants with your piece,you had in parts a detached vibe
popping off, which i would expect from a delusional being,I also found your verse to be
quite creative and clever in parts as well,you had some fine imagery on display that
brought along a depth to this verse on the whole,your flow/tempo via some multi's
worked well too,it just seemed to add another layer which heightened this drop further
overall,your wording was bordering on being poetic for me here as well,you've shown
some nicely crafted elements to a topical piece also,this has been a solid read from
start to end which i have enjoyed reading..


Overall,damn hard to call a winner here and here's why,do I vote this as a topical battle ie via pen game,or do i vote this as a battle?,the reason i type this is because Nigma had the craftsmanship and Amgin had the personal/humour elements bordering on punches,hmm not easy at all,fuck I'm going against the grain here..

Vote Amgin..peace.

Nigma #2:


Am I Nigma? is it him? Nobody really knows who I Am-gin, read my bio
Backwards words in my profile, someone keeps changing my title, hell if I know

I like your style. reminds me of my own. you cool bruv. keep at it.

Call me nuts for challenging an idol, I'm schizotypal, hes everything I'm not, an online jock 
I Grew up an awkward kid, typical allergies, no peanuts in your elementaries 

you really allergic to peanuts? that sucks.. Nigma said we could do a picnic in Hongcouver and hunt down Cougars sometime, but hes a liar so…



Patterned instabilities, no social skills, inept, I need advice
She offered again, too nice, it be awkward to say 'no' twice, read my last rites

I hate with a fervor using the same word twice in a verse, in particular when its unnecessary. awkward like that back to back just ruins my evening. thanks jerk.

"Thank you ma'am.. I would love an arcachide".. 
Fuck it, I gotta feed, gotta get my weight up
No Epi-pen, just let me swell up, battling a vet

the theme is smooth tho, solid angles. I dig it.

Haven't even earned my stripes yet, but you've got a few?
Nice record, I wouldn't know '14 and 2'
Down the rabbits hole is what I'm looking through
Must hurt a bit, they think this rookies you

bodybag.

But thank you, for accepting this battle, 24 lines holding me back, shackled 
That number shouldn't come as a surprise, baffled?
It matches the 24 carvings on my thighs, knives travelled
Personality Disorder, "borderline", but I'm on the better side, why don't you come over?

slick. not sure if serious with the cutting shit. if so hope you resolved it and live a happy life. peace be unto you my friend.

Red rover red rover, Nigma thinks he's Hova.. what a Yahoo!
Do you wanna know how Google defines you? 
'A person or thing that is difficult to understand', give it up man, you're not a professor

the fact Nigma thinks hov is trash made this line for me.

Stop trying to lecture me, your lessons will be lost, stoned in history 
After 22 lines, Amgin is still a mystery 
Can't be 'Jekyll and Hyde', (sorry Law), but nice try 
That would imply Nigma and I are the same guy..

solid outting. I liked the continuous themes… felt free flow and fun. had some zingers.. good shit fella.




Nigma #1:

Hey. This is Shaun. Oh wait, or is it Shawn? Ah, don’t piss me off

best opener, ever.

I’m the mythic God spawning fictitious pawns and insist I’m not

I’ve considered stopping but didn’t, fault of conflicting thoughts

Track my IP? Bitch I’m switching spots, giving off hidden plots

So if I’m caught, it diminishes the risk, and this my zone of vengeance

Every clone I’m sending in’s akin to bold intentions, like being

Engrossed in the benefits pent within a broken friendship

Extending a lone appendage to your codependents hopes to end it

real ill flow wise. I hope that appendage was your middle finger and not your nose you snob.



Okay, now you see? Thats a circle of pain

A bridge rebuilt just to burn it again

aganeeeeeeee

So really, who am I? What's my permanent name

Will I swerve and move to servitude or personal gain?

I want to engage, cleanse my flaws and write,

But when they say I’m not concise, I cross the line

Falsify my flaws and I will contradict this loss of time with

Columbines of fallen idols all across my conscious mind

shooting kids you idolizing isnt very nice, but dewwweetttt since you hate me im safer than arm wrestling your mother.

I’m fond of life but still in hell from dawn to night

Halt and hide inside the guise that walls provide

probs my favorite segment of this battle.


I stumble towards darkness and then crawl to light

It’s all right there to harness, but I’ve lost this fight

admitting defeat this early is a G move. ultimately trolling to throw in the towel on the chess match against yourself. topical bodied.


Will I erase a species or cage my demons in villains cells

Will I enrage what feeds me or save what's seen as an infidel

My brain is plagued, relieve me..  This page and leaning quill will help

To kill the other side of me, but scared that I might kill myself...

lets hope not. the world needs more Nigma..so im glad you made an alt.


well, this is a styles clash… seems Albatrose has a habit of that. I felt Al B Sure had the more focused verse, but Nigma had the better lines. I also didnt feel the more focused verse was the better verse.. altho it followed the "topic" more.. it wasnt like Nigma wrote about his moms bathrobe.

vote = Nigma....la cara triste.

Amgin

I totally could see over 4 elements in this verse it was direct in text terms and also included the confines of the topic that's a rare one to have balls to enter a battle with that so props on that the rhymes were okay for me not more and over all this verse was kind of expertly done seeing how it had so much in it

Nigma

The opening 4 bars were really funny mythic god fictitious pawns then insist your not I ain't going to jump much on the rhymes all of em were dope esp the run ons on the lower part you were also unconventional with your plot I could spot opposing ideas in mostly the first section and that made your approach interesting

Mvgt Nigma

He had a better verse in terms of presentation and schemes and also had a better grip on the topic with his verse IMO Amgin also had a nice verse but nigmas verse edged his on the factors I've mentioned
