RWBY Volume 3 Soundtrack - I'm the One feat. Casey Lee Williams

Here's the full version of "I'm the One" featured in Chapter 4 By Jeff Williams with Casey Lee Williams on Vocals. This one definitely feels like a Team CFVY song but is actually more about Emerald and Mercury now that I've listened to the lyrics more intently.

Coco-oh I like her
.Emerald breaks her shades.
Coco-nevermind I dont like her

[demi-fiendoftime]

So I'm guessing Emerald and Mercury like decaf?

[michaelchang]

I just wanna say...I'm really impressed with Jeff Casey and he other magicians... I mean musicians that make the soundtrack for RWBY. They are amazing with the tonal shifts between songs but this one in general u can really FEEL your mood change with the beat. (For me anyway)

Lyrics for anyone that wants them:
Welcome to the bloodbath jump into the tub
Fist-fight, death-match come and join the club
Kick-start your face with a metal-clad boot
You should give up now your retaliation's moot

I'll run circles round ya, I can touch the sky
I'm gonna make ya hurt and I'm gonna make you cry
You want to mess around? Well come on let's go
I got no time to waste let's start the show

I'm the one that your mama said
'Don't mess with them or you'll end up dead
That type they don't follow any rules'

You're looking tall, you're looking tough
I'm sorry dude, it's not enough
Your girlfriend's purse won't help you win this duel

The bigger they are then the more that they bleed
The deeper the scars that won't heal
Buckets of pain as they lie there in shame
Knowing how true defeat feels

I'm the one
That was born in a nightmare a murderer's son
Got no gun
But I gleam like a blade and I'm harder than iron

I'm the one
Who rose out of filth and was loved by no-one
Delusion
I'll steal til your blind and defeat you from inside your mind

You're still standing up? Well let's go another round
Singin' king of pain and you're gonna get crowned
You like the way I dress? Yeah I know I'm fine
The blood's gonna stain but it won't be mine

Just chill here while I drop into the brush
See you when I land and you're gonna feel the crush
Lay right down and grab a little rest
I guess you didn't know that you were dealing with the best

You shoulda stayed at home today
This fisticuff won't go your way
This confrontation isn't just for school

It might be hard to hear me say
Kicking your ass is child's play
I hope you're not crushed by this ridicule

A slap on the wrist and a kick to the chin
A hint of the flavor of steel
No one to blame it's the end of the game
The humiliation is real

I'm the one
That was ripped from the earth and exposed to the sun
Overrun
By the hate and the beatings defiled by a father

I'm the one
I'll race with your eyes and you'll never outrun
Illusions
Will conquer your mind and will make you fulfill my design

[ginargent]

It makes sense, the lyrics are emerald and Mercury (mainly Mercury), and the instruments are CFVY

[crimsonrose]

this is one of my favourite songs from rwby

[Archaick]

I always think of this as Mercury's theme song lol

[swanderlusting]

THERE WERE SO MANY HINTS TO MERCS METAL FEET LIKE THE SKIDDING AND SPARKS

[GigaLigma]

My GOD, this is amazing. Has to be the only song I've actually LIKED a pace change in.

[PurtyFalcon]

i don't like mercury, for many reasons, but i have to admit his fighting style and apparent semblance is pretty awesome

[terrabranwen]

at the start i thing mi cellphone is muted so i turn the sound to the head blown.

[redsage_]

1:00 look in slow motion did his legs break again

[Sydney_Belladonna]

Anyone else notice that Violet has normal ears???

[truej]

If Mercury was consistently as strong as in his fight with team coffee, he would really break any fight he got into

[alejandrosalvidres]

Mercury is my favorite villain of the show and juane in my favorite hero

[novikovPrinciple]

I always wondered why Fox was strangely absent for most of the volume. I mean, yeah, all we really cared about was seeing Velvet's (actually) awesome weapon(s). But still...

[demi-fiendoftime]

This is screaming inside my head as I try to get the freaking Sun Sigel in FFX as I'm so worked up about that right now it is frustrating especially since I was 1 fucking balloon off from getting it why do JRPG devs feel it necessary to hide certain special items behind anyoing tedious

[edgystuffretarkidnormcring]

1:56 thank god for aura or his head wouldn’t be on his shoulders anymore

[rosolinzenon]

Merc and em would make adorable babies x3
