Luke Skywalker:
“I am the son of the Chosen One and walk the sky.
I came from a world that was really dry.
I had mentors who were very wise.
They taught me how the Force applies.”; Paul Atreides:
“Your mentors told you lies.
They aren’t heroes, they are bad guys.
Your “mentors” are the ones who tore your family apart,
That is how much they value the heart.
Your father they sought to have you kill.
To your credit, you defied their will.
Your desire to save your father shows a character of distinction.
I am seeking to prevent the human race’s extinction.
In comparing to me, it is a question of scale
On that basis, you fail.”; Luke Skywalker:
“It is true that Yoda would have me my friends forsake.
Had I done so, my friendship would be fake.
My power is from the Force.
A scale you can’t divorce.”; Paul Atreides:
“Your lack of education is showing.
Your statement demonstrates you not knowing,
The Force is not where your true power gets its start.
It really comes from your human heart.
I excelled in all of my learning.
And my father’s pride and praise it was earning.”; Luke Skywalker:
“You claim you save humanity by walking the Path,
But you trade away your soul to escape a future’s wrath.
You mastered every science, every mental school and art,
Yet you let a cold calculation tear your conscience apart.”; Paul Atreides:
"I see the 'narrow way'—the only path where we survive,
It takes more than a heart to keep the human race alive.
You’re a hero of the moment, a legend in the stars,
But I am the Messiah who will heal the future’s scars. I am the son of a Duke and make decrees.
I bear the noble blood of the Atriedes.
The Golden Lion throne, I shall seize.
I am the Lisan al-Gaib with prophecies.
I am the Kwisatz Haderach and command as I please. (The Voice)
I am telling you now, get down on your knees.”; Script by DFire. All YouTubers have permission to adapt this into a Rap Battle video. Please credit the original Imgflip post. Merit-based: OT Luke Skywalker vs. Paul Atreides.
If this is made into a video, you can (optionally) add a group of rebels and a group of fremen to the audience for cheering on their guy and reaction shots.
