about

The theme song for all the route setters in America.

lyrics

(Chorus)
Don’t you know I got a 8 by the cave where that overhang kick back?
Ratty gym sack where I’m holding all the crimps at?
What you know about that? What you know about that?
What you know about that? I know all about that,
14.4, on the low in my Mikita bag,
see me putting rests where the best be competing at,
what you know about that? What you know about that?
What you know about that? I know all about that,

Crimp and a slope sitting pretty, looking shiny, so I
thread a long bolt through them both - I’m combining holds,
y’all do know how we roll? Putting grips on the wall,
everyone climb them all, quality at the top,
do you know about me, dog? They talk about me, dog,
you think you got me, dog? Then you better route me, dog,
I’m on the boulders, man; nobody colder, and,
you try to break the beta, you caught that shoulder pain,
they hate me on the torch, they shaky on my 4’s,
I’m hanging on the porch, with Baby Overlords,
I’m playing on the Force, my lady hang the draws,
you niggas ain’t me, cause, you can’t outplay me, bruh!

(Chorus)

Trying to live like me is unlikely,
climbing in the Nike’s for the IG,
everything I do precisely in the high beams,
wearing nice things - you can tell I’m living my dreams,
and these niggas sleeping on me…I guess I’m Freddy Krueger
in a ready mood…machete tools at the ready,
screws in my head, jewels on my neck, always gonna
prove I’m the best, moving correct, niggas know they
snooze and they dead, losing they head…
they play the fool, I’ma play the rest - making checks…you chuffers
pick up a drill and think you setting up gold, never
forget that the skill we got is better than most!

(Chorus)

Couple hours since I rolled into work…
steady sweating like a hoe in a church…used to
be in the Momentum on a rope till it hurt,
but now I’m in the Big Gun, and I can’t go nothing worse, got some
holds that I picked out, set up for a sick route,
feeling kinda psyched because I just sent my first six, now my
boy rolled up on the skateboard, his first thought,
was asking if I’d set him a 5.12 on the vert, boy…
auto-belays only work so long,
climbing on that overhang is what’s gonna get you strong!
And a 12 on vert would be a piece of shit,
so an 11 out the cave will be what he’s gonna get, bitch!

(Chorus)
