"Goated" lyrics
I kicked down the door, I made the blueprint
I paved the way, let's stop pretending
I laid the bricks, I built the foundation
I'm a household name, my ting's cemented
Twenty laps deep, still setting pace, I don't see too many contenders
Everyone getting called "GOAT" these days
Give it a rest, I feel offended
I'm offended, how can I not feel offended?
On road or in HMP, if you talk top three, I better get a mention
Nuff man's pen ain't nuttin like mine
So don't even try put man in the same sentence
Back with a vengeance, greatness pending
No need to talk wass for the clout and attention
I'm the one that they love to hate
I been blackballed from about '08
I'm no postie but I'm boasy, had the Rolls Royce posted on the estate
Look, I told my bro that it's never too late
He don't make big moves cah the roads too bait
He nah listen, got clapped in the shoulder
Now he can't stop doing up the Harlem Shake
Watch your head back out here, anything can go
I came a long way from [?]
Tings try laugh cah I never had a whip
Now I got 'em all whipped, woulda thought I was in a bando
Come up around trappers and stick-up guys
When you can get - for switching sides
You can roll with the hammers but I kept them ties
And I'm still around the gunners like Declan Rice
So you're looking at a real North London baby
I was posted up in Highbury mainly
My dad had a lab on Holloway Road where he showed me the ropes
That's the gift he gave me
Just another juvie with a daydream
Who'd have thought dookie would go mainstream?
Never been an impostor, tell me one genre that I can't slay, G
I was rapping, I was singing
Way before these rapping singers that you know
I could disappear and come again and ram up every single show
Remember me, sitting in my cell, thinking, "This is the end of the road"
It's intense, up behind the fence
When everyone knows that you're the real GOAT
I birthed man like -, and then man like -
Revived man like -, I taught man like -
I rap better than -, I made hits for
Bet you never knew I wrote -
I've been out here for more than a minute
But I'm hungry like my run has just begun
Wasn't happening for certain rappers
Had to sell their crib and move back in their mum's
I ain't capping, know me, I can tap into any type of genre anytime I want
From a little boy, I've been a star and all them other rappers are just my sons
Oi, we can't compare CV's, no way
Got a killer resume, yo, I been OJ
They might have one-two views and streams
But come the next week, they forgot bro's name
Me and them are not the same, they're capping on my name
Pen is like a flame, when it's time to aim, I'm wrapping up the game
'Cause I can never miss, the scene is in a state, had to activate
I cannot be tamed, it's in my DNA, I'm a mic specialist
My killy, I been litty since like '05, now it's 2025 and I'm still that guy
Look me in the eye, tell me that I'm lying
'Cause in 2029, the game will still be mine
'Cause I kicked down the door, I made the blueprint
I paved the way, let's stop pretending
I laid the bricks, I built the foundation
I'm a household name, my ting's cemented
Twenty laps deep, still setting pace, I don't see too many contenders
Everyone getting called "GOAT" these days
Give it a rest, I feel -
I paved the way, let's stop pretending
I laid the bricks, I built the foundation
