Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fuck everything else I can see
I know, fuck you I hate you so fucking much
I know you think I'm crazy
'Cause I think you're a fucking fag
Sam the music sounds good man!
You've been practicing
Thanks
Sam, this is Wolf
He's new here
Sup b
Wolf this is Sam
Sam and his band have been here at Flog Gnaw for a while
Sam's gonna show you around while I fill out these last minute field trip slips, alright?
Now you guys have fun
So you guys are into jazz?
Look, Wolf, Prairie Dog, Ronzell
Whatever the fuck your name is
We don't fuck with you or anybody else here, alright?
You stay the fuck out of our way and we'll stay out of yours
Capisce?
The lyrics of "Wolf" by Tyler, The Creator depict the hostility and animosity between two individuals. The singer begins by using profanity to express their anger towards the other person, stating that they hate them so much. The use of the word "crazy" implies that the other person thinks the singer is irrational, but the singer appears to be driven by intense emotions that they cannot contain. The use of the word "fag" is a controversial term commonly used as a slur against the LGBTQ+ community, which portrays the singer as homophobic and intolerant.
The dialogue between Sam and Wolf at the end of the song hints at the tension within the group. Sam, as the guide or the veteran member, tries to bridge the gap between them and suggests that they share common interests in jazz. However, Wolf's response is met with hostility from the other members of the group - Prairie Dog and Ronzell - who immediately tell him that they do not want anything to do with him. This exchange shows the disdain and exclusionary attitude within the group, creating a sense of conflict and discomfort.
Overall, the lyrics of "Wolf" depict a narrative centered on aggression and animosity, where the singer seems to be unable to control their emotions, causing friction within the group.

Tyler is now 30 years old, and he tweeted back in 2013 or something that he was going to officially drop the instrumentals for WOLF when he turns 30. Lets see if it happens.

I think Tyler has to be the only person capable of making a fucking beautiful song where half the lyrics are "Fuck you." HOW DO YOU EVEN PULL THAT SHIT OFF?
