The following verse by Zumbi is themed, and features the following wordplays and references to water:

My brother hit me on the game, said that we original man
And we manifested here to spit slang
I thought a minute, and let it sink, deep like the Titanic
We wider than the ocean of Atlantic
Pacific(ocean)al mythical styles in the west it’s gettin' wild
I’m chillin' like the Sphinx upon the Nile
Reverberating, why is you hatin' hip hop we creatin?
Across the desert sands we be bakin', my melanin
The key to lock rock spots and flocks
Walk the rugged avenue with my B-Boy bop
It’s evolution toss a pebble at the devil and smile
I’m rebellion while propelling freestyles
