Wolf
Tyler the Creator Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fuck, fuck you, fuck you, fuck him
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?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tyler the Creator's song "Wolf" showcase a raw and aggressive emotion towards an unknown person. The opening line "Fuck, fuck you, fuck you, fuck him" is a direct profanity-laden message to someone who Tyler hates, but remains unknown throughout the song. It follows with Tyler's acknowledgement of the fact that the person most likely considers his behavior as insane as he sees the other person as an insult to his sexuality.


The song progresses to a scene where Tyler introduces a new person, Wolf, to Sam and his band, who have been at Flog Gnaw for a long time. Sam, who is shown as a music enthusiast and tells Wolf that he has been practicing, is asked to show Wolf around while Tyler finalizes some last-minute work. Wolf informs the group that he likes jazz, but is immediately met with hostility from Tyler, Ronzell and Prairie Dog who threaten him to stay out of their way. The lyrics reveal the internal struggle of Tyler's emotions, with the line "You stay the fuck out of our way and we'll stay out of yours" being indicative of Tyler's inability to suppress violent emotions.
