==Information on the rapper==
Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino, better known simply as Raphael, was born on April 6th, 1483, in Urbino, Italy. He was an Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance.

From 1509-1511, Raphael toiled over what was to become one of the Italian High Renaissance's most highly regarded fresco cycles, those located in the Apostolic Palace's Stanza della Segnatura ("Room of the Signatura"). The Stanza della Segnatura series of frescos include ''The Triumph of Religion'' and ''[[The School of Athens]]''. In the fresco cycle, Raphael expressed the humanistic philosophy that he had learned in the Urbino court as a boy.

His work is admired for its clarity of form and ease of composition and for its visual achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur. He died on April 6th, 1520, which coincided with his 37th birthday, in Rome, Italy.

==='''Verse 1:'''===
Cowabunga, dude, so let's get it on.

Reptiles against the fathers of the Renaissance.

We got the classical technique

To kick these three-toed freaks back under the street! (Ooh!)

I take a turtle, and I turn him into mincemeat.

You don't really wanna step to da Vinci!

I love the ladies; I like to keep it mellow,

So let me pass the mic to my man, Donatello!

(Uh!) Hard shell, but you're gross in the middle.

Wouldn't wanna touch you with a six-foot chisel!

Born in goop, raised in poop,

I slice through a group of ninjas like fruit. Oops!

<span style="color:#FF0000">(Yo!) Raphael, and I came to flow!</span>

<span style="color:#FF0000">Deemed dope by the Pope and I boned 'til I croaked!</span>

<span style="color:#FF0000">I'm an emcee Shredder, but I get the feeling</span>

<span style="color:#FF0000">I should pass it up to my man on the ceiling!</span>

(Ohhh!) Michelangelo, and I'm a giant!

I made David, but I'll slay you like Goliath!

I'm a rap [[God]], and you can't quite touch me!

This battle's your Last Judgment, trust me!

'''''We drop science!''' <span style="color:#FF0000">We got the mathematics!</span>''

''The architects of rebirth are rap addicts!''

''You beat the Foot, but it won't go well''

When you catch an Italian ''boot to the half shell!''

==='''Verse 2:'''===
That's because you mutants are too immature!

You wouldn't know genius if it pissed in your sewer!

<span style="color:#FF0000">We got the talent,</span> '''''and the minds,''''' <span style="color:#FF0000">and the rhymes so sweet!</span>

We're like your NES game <i>'cause we can't be beat!</i>
