[00:32.830] | Damn my nigga why you actin' like a bitch |

[00:41.160] | Hold on tight to a nigga and be sure |
[00:43.040][Verse 1] | |
[00:43.550] | Ain't a way around it no more, I am the greatest |
[00:46.550] | A lotta niggas sat on the throne, I am the latest |
[00:49.490] | I am the bravest, go toe to toe with the giants |
[00:52.030] | I ain't afraid of you niggas, I'll end up fading you niggas |
[00:54.730] | 'Fore it's all said and done, this nigga need medicine |
[00:57.310] | My uzi it weighed a ton, I need me a better gun |
[00:59.960] | In fact I just might need two, cuz niggas say they the one |
[01:02.750] | And I got something to prove |
[01:04.580] | Forgive me lord here they come, BLAOOW |
[01:06.140] | Nigga why you actin' like a ho? |
[01:08.520] | Know that I'ma ride for ya, either way it go |
[01:11.020] | Tell me girl why you be stressin me for time |
[01:14.060] | When you tell me you love me, can't you see im tryna climb |
[01:16.450] | Damn my nigga why you actin' like a bitch |
[01:19.400] | If you scared to take a chance, how the fuck we gon' get rich? |
[01:21.980] | Come here baby why you always insecure? |
[01:24.940] | Hold on tight to a nigga and be sure |
[01:26.710][Verse 2] | |
[01:27.320] | My inhibitions, fighting my intuition |
[01:30.320] | Premature premonition |
[01:31.850] | Showin me the demoliton of these phony niggas |
[01:34.640] | So ahead of my time |
[01:36.160] | Even when I rhyme about the future I be reminiscing |
[01:38.960] | You want the truth well come and listen |
[01:40.630] | I'm like that time you bagged a dime |
[01:42.250] | And checked ya phone and saw it was a number missing |
[01:44.390] | As fate passes you by, half of you try |
[01:46.630] | The other half of you fry, too high to actually fly |
[01:49.380] | One day y'all have to decide, who you gon' be |
[01:52.120] | A scary nigga or a nigga that's gon' rule like me |
[01:54.810] | Keep it true like me, Cole you might be |
[01:57.290] | Like the new Ice Cube, meets the new Ice-T |
[02:00.190] | Meets 2 Live Crew, meets the new Spike Lee |
[02:03.140] | Meets Bruce like Wayne, meets Bruce like Lee |
[02:05.670] | Meets '02 Lil Wayne, in a new white tee |
[02:08.420] | Meets KD, ain't no nigga that can shoot like me! BLAOOOW |
[02:11.750] | Nigga why you actin' like a ho? |
[02:14.090] | Know that I'ma ride for ya, either way it go |
[02:16.590] | Tell me girl why you be stressin me for time |
[02:19.530] | When you tell me you love me, can't you see im tryna climb |
[02:22.070] | Damn my nigga why you actin' like a bitch |
[02:25.020] | If you scared to take a chance, how the fuck we gon' get rich? |
[02:27.620] | Come here baby why you always insecure? |
[02:30.370] | Hold on tight to a nigga and be sure |
[02:32.600][Bridge] | |
[02:33.160] | (Who's the king?) |
[02:34.280] | Came from the bottom nigga, with stains on my shirt |
[02:36.610] | What you expected from me, I came from the dirt |
[02:38.640] | (Who's the king?) |
[02:38.840] | Money my motivator, the songs that I sing |
[02:42.100] | Picture a peasant passin' from pawn to a King |
[02:44.330] | You tell me ya still love me, if so then let me go |
[02:47.580] | Will I return or will I burn, never know |
[02:49.810] | Look in my eyes and see the future |
[02:52.410] | But don't sugar coat it |
[02:53.830][Verse 3] | |
[02:54.540] | Listen |
[02:55.200] | History repeats itself and that's just how it goes |
[02:57.940] | Same way that these rappers always bite each others flows |
[03:01.040] | Same thing that my nigga Elvis did with Rock n Roll |
[03:03.430] | Justin Timberlake, Eminem, and then Macklemore |
[03:06.120] | While silly niggas argue over who gone snatch the crown |
[03:08.960] | Look around my nigga white people have snatched the sound |
[03:11.770] | This year I*ll prolly go to the awards dappered down |
[03:14.300] | Watch Iggy win a Grammy as I try to crack a smile |
[03:17.090] | I'm just playin', but all good jokes contain true shit |
[03:19.850] | Same rope you climb up on, they'll hang you with |
[03:22.430] | But not Jermaine, my aim too sick |
[03:25.120] | I bang nigga, I came to bring the pain my brain too quick |
[03:27.970] | You see how I maneuver this game, I ain't stupid |
[03:30.660] | I recognize that life is a dream, and I dream lucid |
[03:33.350] | And break the chains and change minds, one verse at a time |
[03:36.190] | And claim too sick. And fuck it, if the shoe fits |
[03:38.780] | Who's the king? |
[03:39.850][Outro] | |
[03:40.210] | We all kings |
[03:41.530] | (We all kings nigga) |
[03:42.800] | Kings of ourselves first and foremost |
[03:44.070] | (True) |
[03:44.270] | While the people debate who's the king of this rap game |
[03:46.970] | Here comes lil' ol' Jermaine |
[03:49.200] | With every ounce of strength in his veins |
[03:50.830] | To snatch the crown from whoever y'all think has it |
[03:54.080] | But rather than place it on his head as soon as he grabs it |
[03:56.570] | Poof, boom, paow, it's like magic |
[03:59.370] | With a flash and a BANG the crown disintegrates |
[04:02.820] | And falls to the Earth from which it came |
[04:05.210] | It's done |
[04:06.270] | Ain't gonna be no more kings |
[04:08.760] | Be wary of any man that claims |
[04:10.590] | Because deep down he clings onto the need for power |
[04:13.590] | But in reality he's a coward |
[04:16.330] | Ultimately he's scared to die |
[04:19.430] | And sometimes so am I |
[04:21.410] | But when I'm in tune with the most high |
[04:24.050] | I realize |
[04:25.110] | The fear lies in my lack of awareness of the other side |
[04:29.020] | Today I know that we are the same |
[04:30.750] | Are the same, you and I |
[04:32.780] | Different kind of skin, different set of eyes |
[04:35.320] | Two different minds, but only one God |
[04:37.810] | (It's only one God nigga) |
[04:39.990] | It's for all the kings |
[04:41.670] | Cause deep down I know every poet just wanna be loved |

[04:02.820] | And falls to the Earth from which it came |
[04:05.210] | It' s done |
[04:06.270] | Ain' t gonna be no more kings |
[04:08.760] | Be wary of any man that claims |
[04:10.590] | Because deep down he clings onto the need for power |
[04:13.590] | But in reality he' s a coward |
[04:16.330] | Ultimately he' s scared to die |
[04:19.430] | And sometimes so am I |
[04:21.410] | But when I' m in tune with the most high |
[04:24.050] | I realize |
[04:25.110] | The fear lies in my lack of awareness of the other side |
[04:29.020] | Today I know that we are the same |
[04:30.750] | Are the same, you and I |
[04:32.780] | Different kind of skin, different set of eyes |
[04:35.320] | Two different minds, but only one God |
[04:37.810] | It' s only one God nigga |
[04:39.990] | It' s for all the kings |
[04:41.670] | Cause deep down I know every poet just wanna be loved |
