(KING)

Verse 1:

Shii, see I been itching to come

And just make a change with this

But politics been holding be back

And I can't complain

It's time to show who is the realest

It's king and ain't no denying it

To practice what I preach

So I'm finally done applying..

This game has really been tripping

Im menace and don't forget

I witnessed so much in life

But still can't paint the picture

It's different, the times we grew up were never the same but really relating to everyone is a must

But I still don't get it

From thе government to laws

Are you seeing all thе flaws?

They say to live it day by day

But what you're missing is that pause that makes you think about your life

And reach for goals that seem appalled

It's scarcity we on a shortage overcoming as the wall steady keep growing

But isn't congruent

When choosing a side

You picking who losing

I know that ur scared

It must be confusing

The bodies keep dropping its all in the youth

What we listening to as they keep living at it

Like drugs to the brain

The addiction keeps adding

You struggle to face what you need to

In speak to the lord like you really been making it happen

I guess that it's fabricated, agitated

To move when you're asked a lack of patience

Strung out in a world of flaws

To late to face, deliberate your constant hate

Is something great

But I can find ways I can change this

Maintain me, in a way shit. Like I'm overseas

Yeah I notice things, that will eventually change me. When I focus on another part of this

It's something different

Like to break down everything

Into a point where you could feel it

Then embrace in separate the ones that hate

And all the reals in a bubble

So you left alone that's medicated healing

Like I said I get you little niggas don't want a problem, call'em actors

So I guess that these rappers deserve an Oscar

Like a battery I'm beating her back I might get a charge

I had to tell my fam no worry

Ain't talking A Kuna Matata

Just a word from a niggas that's trynna make it

If you see an opportunity strap until you take it, mother told me not to trust these niggas

I'm like O k.K.K

And like I said

Ain’t no one fuckin with me

I’m just saying, KING

Verse 2:

Kashmir to Canada

Canada to Tennessee

We just 3

So why it’s bothering thee my g?

Gotta keep it simple like John Wick

Picked this pencil up as a sidekick

Life is a rubix haven’t figured a bit of it

They say brace and embrace it

But it’s quite a bit to face it

My own thoughts make it hard for me to make it

But I still Ace it

You trynna take what’s mine

Got Scarface like face to manage it

Andres like pace to salvage it

Kobes like chase to take it

And I know it’s easy for you to hate it

But I’ve managed to take that hate like Drake

I’ve got a lot of it on my plate

And I’ve been dealing with it since I was 8

Rap real for me

Like a job which is 9 to 8

Been married to it

Which means I won’t yet celibate

Got more to take

Like Elon with doge

So I won’t yet celebrate

Just 19 but I feel 90 cause

I’ve seen more than my age

So serious with it

Like play for the states

Keep these rappers under my check

Like they some inmates

Leaving no room for them

Nah these fuckers ain’t my mates

They be on some shrooms

And act like they the greats

Fuck

They just hating the fact

I go ape on a track

I feel like cordae cause I’m bout to attack

Like he fucked w super, by Kodak

This ain’t no cap

They treat me like a kid

But I can take em out even in my nap

I Keep on moving, keep on proving

Keep on grooving, leave em schooling

Not here fooling, just here vueling

Some think they ruling

But I’m the once who’s fucking choosing

Taken many hits on my image

I feel like Harvey Weinstein

Takes a toll on my self esteem

Then I need some Methamphetamine

The ADHD takes me to Amphetamine

Rappers thinking they going main

After buying the streams

But it’s just their dreams

Cause as long as I’m here

I’m standing like the marines

Too supreme

Bars so high

Just like morphine

So you might need a vaccine

The lingua be vexin

Like nina leaves em resting

Puts their inter, resting

Now who you testing

So serious with it, like I’m investing

Fuck…
