Excellent

Song Meaning

One word, repeated until it becomes a chant: "Excellent." Koryn Hawthorne builds the track as a swaggering declaration, asking "Who got the juice? I do" and "Who got the drip?" and describing a confidence so natural it is "built inside you." The braggadocio is the genre's usual register, but the credit gets redirected in the second verse.

Pride is checked by a quick turn to the source. "I'm only getting better, 'cause I know He's first," she says, and when she anticipates the charge of bragging, the reply is "take it up with the One that sent me / it ain't my fault He got me doing the most." That puts the confidence in a calling rather than in self-promotion.

The hook sets a high bar: "If it's good, I don't want it," with "excellent" the only acceptable standard. She also says she is "tired of acting like I ain't plugged with the plug," refusing to hide her faith in places like the club, where even "thugs" show her love. Colossians 3:23 and 1 Corinthians 10:31 tie doing everything well to doing it for God, and Psalm 139:14 grounds the confidence in being wonderfully made.

Who got the juice? I do, I do, I do
I be riding my own wave, something like a tidal
And my flexing come so natural, don't have to try to
And you ain't gotta worry 'bout it when it's built inside you

Excellent
Excellent
Yeah, that's superb
I don't know if you heard
But I got a way with my word
And I know you feel that fire inside every verse
And I'm only getting better, 'cause I know He's first

I'm so tired of acting like I ain't plugged with the plug
I'm so tired of acting like this can't go in the club
This feel so hood that even the thugs showing me love
So when they ask me what's good, I'ma tell 'em that it's just

Excellent
If it's good, I don't want it
Is it bad? All I want is
Excellent
If it's bad, I'ma flaunt it
Every time that I'm on is
Excellent

My confidence, this life I live
This hit, it is so
Excellent
My confidence, this life I live
This hit, it is so

Who got the drip? I do, I do, I do
So much of it, I could fill up a bayou
It feel like I just pulled up in something that's brand new
With the new car smell in it, clean like fresh linen

And you know I'm 'bout my business
Like I got five, six, seven children
And you know I'ma stay with it
And you know I'ma go get it
If you think that I'm bragging
Take it up with the One that sent me
It ain't my fault He got me doing the most

I'm so tired of acting like I ain't plugged with the plug
I'm so tired of acting like this can't go in the club
This feel so hood that even the thugs showing me love
So when they ask me what's good, I'ma tell 'em that it's just

Excellent
If it's good, I don't want it
Is it bad? All I want is
Excellent
If it's bad, I'ma flaunt it
Every time that I'm on is
Excellent

My confidence, this life I live
This hit, it is so
Excellent
My confidence, this life I live
This hit, it is so

I'm so tired of acting like I ain't plugged with the plug
I'm so tired of acting like this can't go in the club
This feel so hood that even the thugs showing me love
So when they ask me what's good, I'ma tell 'em that it's just

Excellent
