10 Points |
America the beautiful, gangsta’s paradise |
For a black man to be rich, you say we sacrifice our own family members |
Like we’re not savvy enough to make outstanding figures |
And ain’t nobody in no cult |
I give so much, financially give away |
But there’s an aspect of that that’s crippling to us today |
Still coping and dealing with my environment as a kid |
I trust no one today because what someone in my past did |
King, gotta learn to let it go and move forward |
King, you should learn to say no, keep all your dough in |
King, Michael Jordan gives back and you didn’t know it |
Like LeBron does, but it’s just seldom they show it |
King, get ten points from one bird doin' your thing |
King, 'til one of your homies decide to sing |
King, I started sayin' «Peace King» on my song «The Flyest» |
And after that, it took off like fire, peace, King |
Take it from a street dude, you don’t need to be a street dude |
Get a lawyer, read your contract, and eat food |
Become Roberta Flack or Lionel |
When you catch flack, that mean they got they eye on you |
Produce great results, they start to lie on you |
Is it love for a Queens dude in Supreme shoes |
Or did the street code expire with these dudes? |
Especially now, I don’t expect you to bow, but stand |
Creating jobs, named my venture from after the land |
I came from, that’s unheard of |
A hood that’s known for murder now doing mergers |
The streets is a lie, don’t believe these dudes, jail or death is all you get |
They tell you never move, but when they get money, they split |
King, gotta learn to let it go and move forward |
King, you should learn to say no, keep all your dough in |
King, Michael Jordan gives back and you didn’t know it |
Like LeBron does, but it’s just seldom they show it |
King, get ten points from one bird doin' your thing |
King, 'til one of your homies decide to sing |
King, I started saying «Peace King» on my song «The Flyest» (Peace King) |
And after that, it took off like fire |
They hardly happy for you, keep doing what you do |
You can’t please everybody, and not everybody is you |
Don’t try to force a square peg in a round circle, that shit’ll hurt you |
Don’t try to fit in either, you’re better off with neither |
Few veteran speakers get medicine when you need it |
Especially when we all need knowledge instead of sneakers |
Stop hangin' on to childhood trauma, it defeats us |
Our challenge is holding ourselves back, I hope you felt that |
Queen, gotta learn to let it go and move forward |
King, you should learn to say no, keep all your dough in |
King, Michael Jordan gives back and you didn’t know it |
Like LeBron does, but it’s just seldom they show it |
King, get ten points from one bird doin' your thing |
King, 'til one of your homies decide to sing |
King, I started saying «Peace King» on my song «The Flyest» |
And after that, it took off like fire, peace, King |
