Beethoven

If you know it, I probably composed it
Ludwig van Beethoven
Symphonies play as my ghost is awoken

Guess Dad was right when he said "Ludwig's a prodigy"
200 years and you still ain't forgotten me
Haters will talk 'bout Tchaikovsky but honestly
I write symphonies properly
I am the B-to the-E to the-E to the-THOVEN
And Mozart your records I broke them
We're not the same and you cannot deny it
I'm a classical giant
Ask your teacher how good was my flow they'll say "hella"
If you brought me back I would blow up Coachella
Mr Steal Your Girl, Mr Marry Your Daughter
She vibes in her room to my Moonlight Sonata
I'm no Frank Sinatra coz I don't need lyrics
When I write a symphony I cannot hear it
And I'll never die and I'll tell you what proves it
I'm alive in the music
Ain't it amusing how I still laid down the tracks
When I lost my hearing still spitting straight facts
I picked up a quill and my paper was stacked
And then I attacked
I am romantic, classical, I am an animal
At the piano I eat like a cannibal
Chew up the critics and spit out piano notes
I am a lion and Chopin's an antelope

Coz if you know it, I probably composed it
Ludwig van Beethoven
Symphonies play as my ghost is awoken
If you know it, I probably composed it
Ludwig van Beethoven
Symphonies play as my ghost is awoken

I was taught by a dude called Joseph Hayden
He said that I was pretty cool
He said my classical skills were just frightening
I played the violin better than him
Murdered the stave when I picked up a pen
Now everyone knows it, what a disaster
Joseph your student has become the master
Moved to Vienna and lifted the game
Outgrew the boots of what is his name?
But what is the year? No you can't be serious
Beethoven topped all the charts for three periods?
Did all that whilst supporting my family
Still the haters ask why I was angry
You would be pissed knowing if you lived now
That you'd have a house fully of grammys
And after I made my first milly, the shirts that I bought were so frilly
The wigs that I wore were so silly but nobody laughed coz my bars were so illy
Ode To Joy was my final endeavour
Then told my groupies "I'll never forget ya"
"But good things do not last forever"
And I guess my music was needed in heaven
When news broke I'd passed away fellas were choking
Girls of that era were left heart baroque'en
Everyone clung to the tails of my coat
And that's why I'll go down as the classical GOAT

Coz if you know it, I probably composed it
Ludwig van Beethoven
Symphonies play as my ghost is awoken
If you know it, I probably composed it
Ludwig van Beethoven
Symphonies play as my ghost is awoken
