About This Track

Royce Da 5'9" and Eminem convene as Bad Meets Evil for 'Raw', a track built on unvarnished boasting and aggression. The production, driven by a keyboard sample with drums that echo early trap sensibilities, provides a lean platform for their competing declarations of dominance. Royce opens with the refrain "everything I say be raw", establishing a posture of unfiltered candour that the pair sustains throughout. The song trades verses between its two principals, each staking claims to supremacy within hip-hop. Royce moves through assertions of violence, religious contradiction, and sexual conquest with the ease of someone accustomed to such declarations. Eminem follows with his own inventory of superiority, positioning himself as a killer and a cut above the rest. The interlude, delivered by actor Danny McBride, offers a brief commentary on the precarity of fame and the world's indifference to those who step back from the spotlight.

"Raw" is a track by Bad Meets Evil, from the album Southpaw (Music from and Inspired By the Motion Picture), released 24th July 2015. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Raw

[Intro: Royce Da 5’9”]

Everything I say be raw (Good God)

I'm hardbody, everything I say be raw, woo

Everything I say be raw

I'm hardbody, everything I say be raw (Good God)

Everything I say be raw

I'm hardbody, everything I say be raw (Good God)

Everything I say be raw

Everything I say be raw

[Verse 1: Royce Da 5'9"]

You can never be my nemesis

You against me is me being a fool

And you being an enemy with benefits

I don't even consider myself deep

When I'm rollin' with thirty niggas

'Cause I'm so used to being in a syndicate

Boots on with my strap on me

You don’t know how Yeezy the season finna get

Bad and Evil, catch a body, catch a body, that’s a membership (Woo)

Put you on my hit list then turn around and kill up all the snitches

Then turn around and go to church, repent

Then ask the reverend, “Can I get a witness?”

Ha, I got an IOU on my Bible’s view

Even God knows what I’m liable to do

When I’m high, bro, I represent the same significance

In hip-hop as Pac and Biggie

Driving side car door, 'cept I'm alive though

Best believe I got no problem fucking yo' bitch, raw

And that mean I got no condom

Panamera Porsche, factory real white, That’s me in real life

And I’ll probably be ménaging more than the back of Meek Mill bike

I’m Hollywood

[Chorus: Royce Da 5’9”]

Good God, everything about me raw

From the lyrics to the gun play

I'm hardbody, everything I say be raw

And I mean it (ooh!, I'm raw)

Everything I do be raw

What I do, I do it one way

I'm hardbody, everything about me raw

And I mean it

[Interlude: Danny McBride]

"On top of the world

Every motherfucker wants to get a piece of your ass

Then if you take a little time off from being unstoppable

Just to regroup and relax

No one will give you the time of fucking day"

[Verse 2: Eminem]

I'm the rawest, the rest of y'all just one of a

I’m becoming what I used to make fun of, a

Smug son of a bitch, fuck it though

Going for the fucking jugular

Leave them in a puddle of blood I’m a

Killer, but I'm a cut above the others

Bloody glove in a prison yard, Jodi Arias

I’m coming for you, fuck if the world doesn’t approve

Here I come as a custodian I'm dressed, to smuggle ya

Ass out wrapped up in a comforter come snuggle up with

Another fucking nut, we’ll make a tub of truffle butter

I’ma take this chubby, shove it up that nice round little bubble butt

Make it double-stuffed

Pull it out one hole, put it in the other one

Make a peanut butter cup, bust (Yeah)

We can fuck on a golf cart

Tell me how you want it, soft, hard, or fucking rough

Like a dog bark, stop at a Walmart

Get a couple of 50 watt bulbs with a hot tub

Fill up them buns with a hot dog

To be frank these other motherfuckers ain’t even in the ball park

Then she pulled out the condiment drawer (Woo)

She must heard this is where the condoms get stored (Woo)

Sign above the door to the sauna says

“Welcome to Sodom and Gomorrah” (Woo)

Told her I got something for her (Woo)

Sharp and it’s pointed

And it’s head’s on swole, hold it like a samurai

She said, “Woah, look at that bulge, must have a huge ego”

I said, “Is it me you’re aiming that compliment toward?”

She said, “Yes, my ninja, please get to stabbin' this shit”

I commenced to dropping them drawers

Threw my black belt and gauntlets all onto the floor

Zipped down my fly, whipped out my confident sword

[Chorus: Royce da 5’9”]

Good God, everything about me raw

From the lyrics to the gun play

I'm hardbody, everything I say be raw

And I mean it

Everything I do be raw

What I do, I do it one way

I'm hardbody, everything about me raw

And I mean it

[Outro]

"So that is why I’m better than everyone in the world

Kiss my ass and suck my dick, everyone"
