Lyrics

[Intro] And I'm willing to mow your grass (Yeah) But I specialize in eating MCs (Ha-ha) In the immortal words of LL Cool J As he would say (I'm a GOAT) And for those of y'all who don't know what a GOAT is It means the Greatest Of All Time And I consider myself one of those So thank you very much, here it goes [Verse 1] This is the part I was worried about Everyone thinks that my career is down The tubes and I'm in some dusty garage inhalin' them carbon monoxide fumes And everyone's tellin' me what I should do And how I should come out and what to rap about And I know that I got a lot up In my medulla oblongata that I gotta get out And I'm not sure how this is gonna come off They're probably gonna think that I'm comin' off as cocky (Haha) Like I just started givin' a fuck what you really think about me See, the thing about me Is you don't really know a thing about me Everyone's makin' a stink about me Like there's some kind of an aura of that of the king around me Surround me with nothin' but gangsters Killers and bangers and the most dangerous criminals And I feel like I'm more comfortable around them Than I do my own motherfuckin' neighbors But see, my dream is to be remembered as one of the best when I leave But why does it seem like I'm not even put up in the same category as other MCs? So when Weezy says that he's better than JAY-Z Please read that just subliminally It means he thinks Jigga's the best And that he's the only one up in that league, see And it's easy just to consider me one of the greatest white rappers there is Knowin' goddamn well that I'm one of the best motherfuckin' rappers who ever lived, period [Chorus] I'm a GOAT! And I don't mean to gloat But I know what I know and I know what you think And these magazines'll never put it in ink Because how would it look if they considered me as a GOAT? And for those of y'all who don't know what a GOAT is It means the Greatest Of All Time And I consider myself one of those So thank you very much, here it goes [Verse 2] Maybe they figure that I'm on my way out the game So they gotta go try to find 'em a new Eminem or a new Shady If they think it's gonna happen Man, I thought I was crazy Or maybe I could be takin' it wrong and they're tryna pay homage to me in a strange way So let me pay homage to my fellow white competitors almost in the same way See, you hardly ever do hear anyone even bringin' up Paul Wall's white 'Cause lyrically he doesn't pose a threat to anyone, see, he's just aight And Bubba Sparxxx, he just won't write because he's so caught up in that snow white That Timbaland can't even get him in the studio, he's so gone off that coke, right? And it's so sad, 'cause he's dope, right? America's next great white hope, right? So now they feel like they gotta come up with some corny-ass White Rapper Show, right? And which I'm still havin' mixed feelings about They said to be real, I'm just spillin' it out There's somethin' about a white boy talkin' black And runnin' around with a damn grill in his mouth And I love when they say that Tiger Woods shit "Isn't it ironic that the best rapper's white And the best golfer's black?" and I'm the one who's gotta catch all the flack off of that But these are the people who never had heard of an Eminem until 8 Mile had came out But I had already hit middle America Parents has all got to likin' me now And suddenly, I wasn't such a bad guy All of the hatred for me must've died I thought I committed career suicide So I had to turn back into the bad guy So faggoty faggoty faggoty gays Anatomy God made Raggedy Ann and Andy Not Raggedy Andy and Andy and Andy And Angelina Jolie is just another ho And Brad is a sucka, because once I fuck her She wants to go to Somalia to adopt another baby You know what I say? — "No." You better save some of them kids for Madonna She needs all the publicity she can get You wanted Shady, well you got it, man, I ain't apologizin' for shit [Chorus] I'm a GOAT! and I don't mean to gloat But I know what I know and I know what you think And these magazines'll never put it in ink Because how would it look if they considered me as a GOAT? And for those of y'all who don't know what a GOAT is It means the Greatest Of All Time And I consider myself one of those So thank you very much, here it goes [Outro] Man, I'm takin' my ball And goin' home, man, shit is too easy Nobody even wants to pass me the ball 'cause (I'm a GOAT) So don't worry, I'm out the motherfuckin' game And y'all can sit and argue about who's the motherfuckin' best But y'all know that (I'm a GOAT) And like I said, I'm one of the motherfuckin' best Before you get your panties in a motherfuckin' bunch (I'm a GOAT) Before I go, I'd like to say fuck you very much To everybody who wasn't there from the start And thank you very much to everybody who was (I'm a GOAT) And y'all ain't gotta say it, just think it 'Cause I know that you know that I know That you know that I know that (I'm a GOAT) Haha, I'm out y'all, it's been real Peace
