KING by Saba Lyrics
[Intro]
Uh, uh
[Verse 1]
Pharaohs summon the slaves
Kings were peasants kneelin' down to 'em
All on my name, S-A
Emperors on the rooftop
With the same amount of seats that a coupe got
Ex-rulers turned ex-convicts
Time to count down like the bomb lit
So how we come to power
When the talk of selling our souls or worshipin' owls?
And this is not that, it's that assassin
Like I aim at top hats and cock back
No combat to get maul like where you shop at
Nigga it's [?] like a comrade
While they pray, I sing (Sing)
And one day, I'll be king (King)
[Break]
Yeah
Uh, one day (One day)
King (King)
Uh
[Verse 2]
Kings only kneel to Gods
How your ark be reached and when we die become deities?
No trinity, just eyein' me
The irony, we still spreadin' war in spite of peace
Like deuces, how I'm wild in the booth is
Spit from the guns that kids pick up to school wit'
And the same tongue Adam bit the fruit wit'
Rulers say what the number one rule is
Autobiography, I am an author
I'm at these nigga's heads like barbers
Pardon my aggressiveness, but to them, I am God and they best repent
And I get my point across where your message is
And they don't ever get the throne like they next like Ken
Uh, while they pray, I preach
'Cause some day, I'll be king
[Break]
Uh, one day (One day)
King (King)
One day, I'll be king
[Verse 3]
Uh, see, even as a fetus, a thumb and two fingers was all that I needed
Needless to say, when my grip came, I became a monster
A pen and a piss stain, I was marchin' like the leaders
Yeah, you know the two got popped like leaders
So when you lead us, and what you drink 'em
Now Martin and Malcolm's, Tyrone and Jamal
One of 'em move weight and the other plays ball
And they was down one day at this park
'Til they walked on the cypher and they caught one ball
[Outro]
Uh, king (King)
Uh, uh
[Verse 1]
Pharaohs summon the slaves
Kings were peasants kneelin' down to 'em
All on my name, S-A
Emperors on the rooftop
With the same amount of seats that a coupe got
