Lyrics

[Verse 1]

So unforgettable

More than incredible

More than a metaphor, more than you're ready for

More intellectual

More than electrical, glowing like Edison

I'm more than ahead of 'em

I'm over the head of 'em, more than a spectacle

I could do more than a weapon could

'Cause I'm loaded but deadly

(EarDrummers)

Yeah, I'm undeniable

I'm unbelievable

I'm undefeatable, I'm pretty powеrful

I'm so high, I'm unreachable

I'm not impeachablе, I promise

They'll never forget me like Obama

They'll never forgive me like Alzheimers

In memory lane, they all drivers

That **** Lil' Wayne, all-timer

And I'd rather you forget me than remember me wrong

Cool as Nat King Cole

Call me Nat King Kong (Hrrr)

[Verse 2]

Take off your coat, take off your clichés

Show off that side that no one sees

You got the whole world right here in your pocket

Chasing those stardust melodies

[Verse 3]

So, if you wanna live on

You gotta put on your finest

If you wanna sing your song

You gotta put the time into timeless

If you wanna take it all, let the chandeliers fall

While you're standing tall like the Taj Mahal

Be unforgettable

Like Nat King Cole

Like Nat King Cole

[Verse 4]

There are no endings, there are no yesterdays

When you hit a chord that everyone hears

Emeralds and rubies, black and white movies

They never truly fade away

'Cause greatness never disappears

[Verse 5]

So, if you wanna live on

You gotta put on your finest

If you wanna sing your song

You gotta put the time into timeless

If you wanna take it all, let the chandeliers fall

While you're standing tall like the Taj Mahal

Be unforgettable

Like Nat King Cole

(We take the moment by storm)

Like Nat King Cole

Like Nat King Cole

(We're unforgettable)

Like Nat King Cole

[Verse 6]

(Show off, show off)

(Show off, show off)
