[Intro]
Yo, eh
[Verse 1]
Old boy's back on the track with a venom flow
Haters try to step to me but that shit's unoriginal
Been a little while since I said "I was your miracle"
She said she love me too but, ooh, really?
I don't see it though
I'm the GOAT, I'm the GOAT, I'm the GOAT (Huh?)
What did you say? Was that audible?
Got it all, got it all, got it all
We getting the bag when we come for y'all
We packing the room out in front of y'all
They throwing it back so don't get involved
Yo, I don't think so
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a rider
If you're having trouble, make your mind up
I've been doing me since '95, yeah
Getting higher
It's just the vibe, vibе
Get it, get it, get it, go
[Chorus]
All thе based boys wanna talk shit
"I'm the real GOAT, I'm the real GOAT"
Got the girls flocking in, what it is
I'm the real GOAT, I'm the real GOAT
All the based boys wanna talk shit
"I'm the real GOAT, I'm the real GOAT"
(I don't think so)
Got the girls flocking in, what it is
I'm the real GOAT, I'm the real GOAT
[Verse 2]
Fuck it
Up in the air like it's C0 (Like it's C0)
Two birds over there make the trio (Make the trio)
Nesting in my hair, what's the deal? (What's the deal girl?)
Pretty boy wanna make the flight off to 'treal, yo
You better pass it
Cigarette ash on her lashes
Making fast cash on our masters
Knocking tracks out loose while we're laughing, aye
They wanna clap back with the bad raps
But I can't cap, gave a bad back to her
Like a back pack, keep the thing strapped
Black matte on the gat taps
Keep feet moving
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a rider
If you're having trouble, make your mind up
I've been doing me since '95, yeah
Getting higher
It's just the vibe, vibe
Yeah, yeah, go, go
[Chorus]
All the based boys wanna talk shit
"I'm the real GOAT, I'm the real GOAT"
Got the girls flocking in, what it is
I'm the real GOAT, I'm the real GOAT
All the based boys wanna talk shit
"I'm the real GOAT, I'm the real GOAT"
(I don't think so)
Got the girls flocking in, what it is
I'm the real GOAT, I'm the real GOAT
[Bridge]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
(Always with you) I don't know why we all fight
(Always with you) Forever tethered with you
(Always with you) Life is an infinite paradise
(Always with you) Always with you
[Verse 3]
Old boy's back on the track with a venom flow
Haters want to step to me, I tell them to forget it though
None of y'all are touching me, my style is so supremo
But I don't think you're listening
[Breakdown]
So let me show you real slow
Aye
Yo
[Chorus]
I'm the GOAT, I'm the GOAT, I'm the GOAT
Say that again, was that audible?
Got it all, got it all, got it all
We getting the bag when we come for y'all
We packing the room out in front of y'all
They throwing it back so don't get involved
Yo, yo
I don't think so
A clear reference to the Hardcore band Knocked Loose and their first album, Laugh Tracks. This was confirmed in a Discord AMA from Liam Guinane.
Since the departure of Will King and the evolving metal scene, many people in the community have taken their chance to get a quick jab in at the band. Guinane claps back at the elitists by basically saying to get better material if they want to be vocal
This is referencing the 2022 track “Left In The Dark
If you feel alone, I could be your miracle
The term “Based” is typically used as a way to agree with something. Guinane uses it ironically here, calling out people who call themselves based for having a differing or negative opinion on something.
Just like earlier in the album, Guinane claps back at the hate he and the band has faced during an evolving time.
There’s also a connection to the song Superstitious Fantasy, where themes of being the GOAT are prevalent.
They’re like, GOAT, he’s a king
Windwaker have explored the metal genre in a plethora of ways but it wasn’t until the re-addition of Liam Guinane that the band would steer more for a hip-hop style, which is shown in the bands self-referential brand of “hyper pop metal”
