[Intro: Vanessa]
Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name
My haters come, Thy will be done
In my pockets as it is in Heaven
Give y'all these flames to toast your daily bread
Forgive us our trespa**es as we forgive those who trespa** against us
And Thou Shalt Not, lead us not into desperation
But deliver us from desk jobs and paperweights
For Thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory
Forever and ever…
Amen
[Verse 1: Tarek]
Y'all n***as shoulda known, we run the games y'all just pawns
Rising up like the Dow Jones
We like Mike screaming chmon
Most n***as ain't ready for this
My word'a break bones like ninja sticks
Ain't Brad but in the club I'll pay 50 to fight with fist
Tryna make that all-time list
Rhyme game is so timeless
Ego big, no waitlist
Like Sasha Fierce we reckless
All we make is that good sh**
That cornbread with no quick mix
Soy delicious like chicklets, yo no hacer that bullsh**
From SA to the NY back down south to the NC
Let me Introduce myself− I'm the GOATD
Rhyming all day in the ring like Ca**ius Clay or Ali
This Party//of//two n***a
This right here weren't never meant for three
But I get it, dawg− n***a look, I understand
The way Nessa spit you would think she the new Lauryn
And then you hear me and you just gotta say goddamn
But y'all still don't get it
Tu ne comprend rien
[Hook: All]
My squad do it well
Score like EPL
We don't take no Ls
So you should have known better
My squad out your league
Fast lane like Grand Prix
We know you been sleep
But you should have known better
[Bridge: NØES]
You shoulda seen us coming
You should felt us coming
You shoulda wished us well
When we was up to nothing
But now we onto something
Oh and your city feel it
Our voices blasting right through your speakers
You can't stand it
[Verse 2: Vanessa]
They can't tell if I'm deep or depressed
The haters deep-pressed — panini
Impressed, I'm keeping them stressed
They booking appointments to decompress
My book full of bookings− managing talent's taxing
But profit/prophet's flowing I guess
I was once told by a prophetess
That I was born blessed
God told me “Thou Shalt Not” and I obeyed
So she ain't been wrong yet
Now this the kinda beat that you can milly rock too
What you know about a milli? Yeah I'm tryna cop two
Yeah before I leave school
But until then it's engineering
Kinda boring, but it's what I gotta do
Who set me out on the loose
Flow sick, thick, Onika's caboose
Grew up on Mazoe so you know I got the juice
Grew up Mazoe so Mugabe pay my dues
After 2016 tell me what I gotta lose
Who knew red would overcome the blues
I ain't mean to bring up color, I ain't even get to choose
I ain't mean to bring up color, I ain't even get to choose
Lotta real money spent on fake news
Pay for that new cruise when the people confused
My ops crazy opted into po2's success
Ain't know well you shoulda guessed
[Hook: All]
My squad do it well
Score like EPL
We don't take no Ls
So you should have known better
My squad out your league
Fast lane like Grand Prix
We know you been sleep
But you should have known better
[Bridge: NØES]
You shoulda seen us coming
You should felt us coming
You shoulda wished us well
When we was up to nothing
But now we onto something
Oh and your city feel it
Our voices blasting right through your speakers
You can't stand it
[Outro: Vanessa & Tarek]
You shoulda known better
On God, you shoulda known better
You shoulda known better
I swear you shoulda known better
