GOAT
January 28th, 1985, you arrived
You told us to “Love Yourz”,
cherish it, “no life is better than yours.”
Your wordplay are like strands of nylon,
embedded into one.
As you dropped classics, you called yourself Simba
but you let your hair grow out,
you don’t give a damn about opinions.
You speak from the soul,
words absorbed with such cadence,
as I look in the mirror,
I have headphones on,
I’m making a smug face.
Endless flows, I’m dancing like a parrot
I realize I’m in Cole’s world.
You speak from experience,
you’re seen as a role model
you’re seen as a hater
to me, you’re one of the greatest,
who made a name for Dreamville.
Classics upon classics,
hits upon hits,
you feel the serenity of turquoise
with your beats,
the passion of lavender
through your lyrics,
the bravery of crimson
as you speak his mind.
Length of a beanstalk, fit for a Bentley,
with your new signature Puma Dreamer shoes,
people want to be Cole.
Now we’ll wait for “The Fall Off”,
with our dirty old sneakers,
just like you like it Cole.
SPEECH
Wise man once said to love your life
cherish it, you’re the protagonist
strands of nylon, embedded into one
once known as Young Simba
now seen as a king, Mufasa
his words are from the soul
absorbed with such cadence
as you look in the mirror
you have headphones on
you’re making that face
he’s Goku’s journey on snakeway.
Endless flows, you imitate a parrot
you realize, it’s a ( ) world
speaks from experience
seen as a role model
seen as a hater
to me, he’s one of the greatest.
Classics upon classics
you feel the serenity of turquoise
with his beats
the passion of lavender
through his lyrics
the bravery of crimson
as he speaks his mind.
Beanstalk, fit for a Bentley,
with his new signature Puma shoes,
people are craving to be ( ),
his world is our world,
we’ll dirty our sneakers,
just like the goat likes it.
