Born a King Lyrics

Born a king, sold a slave,

Crossed the sea, stowed away

Hold me down, broken chains,

Numb the pain, novocaine

Born a king, sold a slave,

Tried to love, more to hate

Let me free, freedom ring

Born a king, die a king

Always been gifted

Came out the womb with my lottery ticket

I was almost convinced that I wasn't worth it and almost ripped it

But I'm the culmination of a lot of history omissions

I was bred through adversity, first it seemed like a curse to me

Said I was gifted, everything fitting together perfectly

Figured out my purpose, reversing my family's curse in me

Changing my mind state, might as well have been performing surgery

Got the power to change the world in my tongue

I can do a lot if I touch one

I gotta move now in case I die young

If I was born a king, best believe I'm a die one

Born a king, sold a slave,

Crossed the sea, stowed away

Hold me down, broken chains,

Numb the pain, novocaine

Born a king, sold a slave,

Tried to love, more to hate

Let me free, freedom ring

Born a king, die a king
