[Intro] (Yo, listen up) (George on the mic, lost in the shadows) (Where is the throne? Where is G.O.E.?) (Heavy UK drill beat, sliding 808s, cold skittering hi-hats) Check, look... [Verse 1] Stepping through the fog with a map unrolled Searching for a kingdom that was promised of old Letters carved in granite, three initials in a row G-O-E, the crown where the shadow-dwellers go Walking through the city with the frost on my collar Looking for a palace, not a penny, not a dollar Every alleyway cold, every street sign blank Standing on the edge of a muddy river bank They said it disappeared in the age of the kings Left us in the gutter with the pain it brings I keep walking, searching for the gates of gold A ancient story that was never fully told G.O.E., hear my voice through the rain George on the grime, fighting off the pain Where’s the realm at? Where’s the throne room door? Scraper of the pavement, dust on the floor. [Chorus] Where is G.O.E.? Tell me where the kingdom lies Looking for the throne under dark grey skies G-O-E, three letters in the dark Searching for the fire, searching for the spark George on the track, drill beat knocking hard Walking through the ruins of a broken courtyard Where is G.O.E.? Tell me where the kingdom lies Looking for the throne under dark grey skies. [Verse 2] Yeah, look... Second chapter written in the mud and the grit Sliding 808s hit, every candle is lit Searching through the archives, ancient design Looking for a kingdom that was meant to be mine G stands for the Greatness hidden in the dirt O for the Oath that cures all the hurt E for the Empire fading in the mist Name on the scroll that the ancestors kissed People talk slick, say the kingdom is a ghost Say I’m chasing shadows on a barren dark coast But I feel the foundation deep under my boots Stronger than the oak tree, deeper than the roots Through the high-rises, through the concrete maze Walking through the smoke of a hundred thousand days George on the mission, never taking a step back Drill rhythm pounding like a freight train track. [Chorus] Where is G.O.E.? Tell me where the kingdom lies Looking for the throne under dark grey skies G-O-E, three letters in the dark Searching for the fire, searching for the spark George on the track, drill beat knocking hard Walking through the ruins of a broken courtyard Where is G.O.E.? Tell me where the kingdom lies Looking for the throne under dark grey skies. [Bridge] (Beat switches, heavy bass roll, atmospheric synths) Is it buried in the ground? Is it built in the mind? Is it something in the dark that I’m destined to find? G.O.E.... three letters, one dream Floating down the current of a silent cold stream Is the king just a man with a mic in his hand? Is the kingdom right here where I currently stand? Listen... [Verse 3] Third section coming, now the truth gets clear No crown on my head, but there's no more fear G.O.E. ain't a place on an old brass chart It’s the energy burning right inside my heart Built from the struggle, built from the rhyme UK drill rhythm till the end of all time George takes the mantle, George takes the crown Lifting up the spirit from the lost dark town From the trap to the hip-hop, blending up the sound Kingdom was inside me, finally it’s found Every sliding bassline, every snare drum crack Brings the lost empire right onto the track G-O-E, now you know what it means Greater Than Everything, living out the dreams. [Chorus] Where is G.O.E.? Tell me where the kingdom lies Looking for the throne under dark grey skies G-O-E, three letters in the dark Searching for the fire, searching for the spark George on the track, drill beat knocking hard Walking through the ruins of a broken courtyard Where is G.O.E.? Tell me where the kingdom lies Looking for the throne under dark grey skies. [Outro] G.O.E. George on the mic. Kingdom found. (Dark drill beat fades out with heavy 808 sub and sliding hats)
