Lyrics: Mark Anthony Nichols
Music: Mark Anthony Nichols/Ben Schuller
Shwabadi is going crazy!
They tried to take me out
But I won't fold
Chose this journey when I lost my soul
Won't take me down
Won't take my throne
Died as a sheep, but I rise as the goat
I know that I paid the price
Now that I'm back, bet I'm after my gold
Never afraid to die
Fell as a sheep, but I rise as the goat (yeah)
Rise as the goat (hey)
Yeah (okay)
Came from the bottom
I came up from nothing (ah)
Came from the weakest and became a demon
Now everyone knows that no one can stop him (yeah)
Can't no one defeat him?
I want it, I got it, I'm sat at the peak at the zenith (ah)
I'm popping, they're tryna beef with the lamb like a carvery
So if I meet with the man, then I'm chopping (ah)
I got a blade, several forms
Zealous intent got my fervour involved
I get 'em shaved, fading them all
Leaving them holey, crusader the sword (hey)
Orcus the chop, Fornax, he pop, Vesta the homie, he taking a shot
Came for the crown and I brought me a mob
F*** with the lamb, then you f*** with a God
Impatient, I am not the one who waits
No payment, I'ma send his a** away
Got faithful men with me in every station
Face to face with me, they learn their places (ah)
Blade to blade, I might send him up, ascending opps
I send 'em off with no ritual
Tryna take the top, they need a miracle (oh)
Dig a pit, and drop him in it, he pitiful (okay)
Drip too cold
Drip too clean
Golden on me, copped another fleece
Sacrifice the cost, I know 'bout loss
How you think I made it to the peak?
Holding on, won't falter, now I'm free
Broken once, but conquered those defeats
I was out, but now I count my keep
Rise the goat, inside had died the sheep
They tried to take me out
But I won't fold
Chose this journey when I lost my soul
Won't take me down
Won't take my throne
Died as a sheep, but I rise as the goat
I know that I paid the price
Now that I'm back, bet I'm after my gold
Never afraid to die
Fell as a sheep, but I rise as the goat
Rise as the goat
Ever underestimated (ah)
Never less than what I made it (yeah)
Desecrated temples to their old gods (b****)
When I showed them all that I'm the greatest
Then I showed them all why I'm their favourite
Craft community, and elevate it
Nothing left of mine, don't hold devotion
Nothing left that I'm not holding sacred
Nothing left to find in the forest
I've sent 'em off from that place (that right)
Burned all the webs of Shamura, went to Anura
Made Heket red in the face (hoo)
Made Calamari outta Kallamar
He couldn't counter curses and blades (ah)
F*** taking orders, I could cut down the cat where he waits
They tried to take me out
But I won't fold
Chose this journey when I lost my soul
Won't take me down
Won't take my throne
Died as a sheep, but I rise as the goat
I know that I paid the price
Now that I'm back, bet I'm after my gold
Never afraid to die
Fell as a sheep, but I rise as the goat
Rise as the goat
