Tom argues with a deep-voiced, demonic alter-ego that encourages him to give into the dark side and fall back into addiction. The song follows a similar theme as Eminem’s song “My Darling” where Eminem talks to his alter-ego Slim Shady. The title of the song itself, “Best Rapper Ever”, could also be...
[Verse 1: Tom MacDonald & Tom MacDonald as his inner demon]
Hello, Thomas, I see that you're depressed, what's the problem?
Is it the skeletons you're hiding deep inside your closet?
Have you been reading all the names they call you in the comments?
Have you been worried your haters will put you in a coffin?
Are you distraught that you promised vodka was not an option?
Now you're havin' thoughts of doin' shots, Tom, you're an alcoholic
Is that true? You're upset that you can't have booze?
What's the matter, Thomas? Somethin's got you in a bad mood
Yeah, it does, I'm anxious, nothin' calms me down like Xanax does
But I can't even rеlapse 'cause the intеrnet will laugh at us
I just need a beer or two, but it's been like a year or two
I thought you disappeared, I can't believe that I'm still here with you, shut up
My therapist said me and you can't speak again
I locked the devil out, but it was you who let the demons in
Hahahahahahahahaha, Tom, you're a comedian
I'm only gonna tell you once you really need to be my friend
No, I'm walkin' alone in the darkness
Sharks in the water, a sky full of vultures
The doctor been givin' you pills
'Cause the pressure you're under been givin' you ulcers
Shut up, let me remind you
I'm independent because I'm the guy who
Does anything that I want and goes viral
You're independent 'cause no one'll sign you
You got a YouTube that no one subscribes to
You got a Spotify nobody vibes to
I'm not another person you can lie to
I'll be the greatest as long as the sky's blue
Liar, come on, Thomas, keep it real
You're the liar, I'ma tell you exactly how I feel
[Chorus]
I'm the best rapper ever, I don't wanna be great
If they're the best, then I'm better, don't you make no mistake
'Cause I'm the G.O.A.T., feel it in my bones until I'm a ghost
I'm the one who pulls the sword out of the stone (Best ever)
I'm the best rapper ever, I don't care what you say
I'm da Vinci, I'm forever, I'm designed for the fame
'Cause I'm the G.O.A.T., get the kid a throne, everybody knows
Only voices that I'm hearin' are my own (Best ever)
[Verse 2: Tom MacDonald & Tom MacDonald as his inner demon]
Thomas, I'm still here, I practically smell the fear
I know all the reasons why you feel so insecure
I've seen you panic backstage hearin' everybody cheer
You're famous now, Thomas, tell me, what's with all the tears? Shut up
Do you regret that your face is covered with tattoos?
Mad that your beats whack? All your raps trash too? Shut up
Do you resent that you need meds again? Neglected friends
And now you just pretend you're not pathetic, you're not Eminem
Yeah, it's one of those days, don't know why I don't feel okay
Close both eyes and focus on pain, blows my mind, alone in my brain
I smell smoke from all of those flames, fell in holes and hoped for my grave
They told me "Smell the roses," but I burnt the whole bouquet
Tom, you'll never win the fight against your haters long as I listen
'Cause I read every single comment that you try missin'
Then recite them in your mind and memorize disses
I'm a giant, Thomas, why you tryna fight with me?
I'm different
Don't care about a height difference, I might win it
Show up to a gunfight, knife swingin'
I am the darkness. Yeah? I got night vision
I've been biting my tongue
And the blood from my cuts have been fillin' my stomach
I suffer 'cause they don't show love, and I'm humble
So now I just do this for all of my family and all of my brothers
Liar, you're rappin' for yourself, it ain't for them
Your selfish motivations are the reasons you're depressed
I'm doin' fine, you need to chill, you need to take more of those pills
Take a breath and tell us all just exactly how you feel
[Chorus]
I'm the best rapper ever, I don't wanna be great
If they're the best, then I'm better, don't you make no mistake
'Cause I'm the G.O.A.T., feel it in my bones until I'm a ghost
I'm the one who pulls the sword out of the stone (Best ever)
I'm the best rapper ever, I don't care what you say
I'm da Vinci, I'm forever, I'm designed for the fame
'Cause I'm the G.O.A.T., get the kid a throne, everybody knows
Only voices that I'm hearin' are my own (Best ever)
[Bridge: Tom MacDonald & Tom MacDonald as his inner demon]
Tom, let's work together, you know how good we can be
Don't deny it, just try it; okay, fine; repeat after me; fine
Hi, my name is Thomas, all I want's to be an artist
I need help from all my demons for my dreams to get accomplished
See, Tom? I'm just what you need, we're a team, disagree?
Go 'head, cut your wrists and make your demons bleed
Hahahahahaha
No, I need to do this by myself
I told you twice already exactly how I felt
[Chorus]
I'm the best rapper ever, I don't wanna be great
If they're the best, then I'm better, don't you make no mistake
'Cause I'm the G.O.A.T., feel it in my bones until I'm a ghost
I'm the one who pulls the sword out of the stone (Best ever)
I'm the best rapper ever, I don't care what you say
I'm da Vinci, I'm forever, I'm designed for the fame
'Cause I'm the G.O.A.T., get the kid a throne, everybody knows
Only voices that I'm hearin' are my own (Best ever)
