KINGS Lyrics

I was once taught

That beauty is in

The eye of the beholder

And beauty is pain

Or at least that's what y'all show us

Used to

Barring the weight

Society's placed on our shoulders

But we still kings in our eyes

Now we

Forced to hold our pride aside

Forced to live in genocide

Forced to go thru something

Most times

That we don't really like

Befriending oppositions

Just to be in better positions

How the hell we living

We don't get

Can we pay attention

Mask on mask off

Tell me can I breathe

I just need ten feet

Wont you give me

Something

Yea it's just me and you

Man in the mirror

Tryna say I see a king in you

You can't run from your fate

Got royalty in yo blood

Can you feel it in yo veins

It pours out

As I put that pen on the page

As a king I write my first order

Be a reflection of change

Demanding myself

Put myself to a higher standard

Cuz I know that I can

And I know that I am

All that I am

I did all that I can

Me and my people

Tryna get it you bitch

Tryna get fourth acres and a mule

Give me my money

How long you gone try

And play us like fools

That's not funny

Tryna make new laws

To make me rules

That's not for me

What you thinking

That we didn't see it

What you thinking

That we wasn't going to

Pay attention

To all of the things

You was trying to do

Black man

Black man

He got anger issues

Does it make it okay

To shoot point blank

With your tools

PRESIDENT, DOCTOR

OR ,LAWYER

That might have been the next one

But since he was black

And running around in the suburbs

He's a threat huh

15 years old

Gunned down blood cold

No remorse on the killers face

As the story was told

Black kings in America

They tryna embarrass us

They embellish us

They tryna kill our history

They don't really want us to know

That we can break these shackles

That we can break these chains, Generational curses

They can all break

The DONT realize

If we come together

They want us to know it

That we can storm

They weathers

IQ rising day by day

We might bend

But we won't fucking break

Kings

Kings
