king author - union blak lyrics
[part 1]
in this life of fairytales, hard times and cartoons
how does one become star when you are cursed from the womb
in a jungle full of tombs and tales of wild criminals
and family disfunction has destructured the world’s chemicals
escape, it seems mystical, when powers that be
prefer brothers in prison, not wealthy strong and free
a direct path to success seems hard to see
and you can feel like a idiot, go out, you oughta see
surrounded by treachery, tragedy and defeat
your neighbor’s [] and they rob you on the shoes on your feet
livin’ with crooks it’s hard not to become a thief
when pressures in life push toward insanity
when fear grips humanity, something usally breaks
either your spirit or your mind, [] becomes grey
and you can overcome the fade of those []
[] become a king with words
[hook]
i was born broke but refuse to die poor
may never be in lights but i master the art of war
though some predicted that royalty wasn’t in my genes
when i write i’m reborn as a king (down with the king!)
i was born broke but refuse to die poor
may never be in lights but i master the art of war
though some predicted that royalty wasn’t in my genes
when i write i’m reborn as a king (down with the king!)
[speech]
when i write i’m reborn in an image of what i see
this is us. this is u, this is me. we are royalty, baby!
we rule with words
[part 2]
pimpin’ the poetry is the decision that we face with
i chose the letter, know i was born for greatness
feeling alien in sp-ceships in this digital age
where a rapper can go platinum while there’s body’s in a grave
i understand that what i do is a bit deeper than rap
an immortal technique to relay on heavenly facts
so with a target on my back i [] precautions
knowin’ what i possess is as dangerous as []
p.e. no. 1 in the eyes of []
when average kids can’t afford cuts by a barber
i may become a martyr and leave earth pre-maturely
knowin’ my trace is hard to find in the majority
what i represent orally is majestic in nature
based more on character, less on flavor
see my people get paper, thinkin’ improves, i’m lyracilly
but don’t master the craft, exhibit a new ability
[hook]
i was born broke but refuse to die poor
may never be in lights but i master the art of war
though some predicted that royalty wasn’t in my genes
when i write i’m reborn as a king (down with the king!)
i was born broke but refuse to die poor
may never be in lights but i master the art of war
though some predicted that royalty wasn’t in my genes
when i write i’m reborn as a king (down with the king!)
[part 3]
there’s death on every corner, from brixton to california
young cats search for structure, a young life that’s out of order
these hard rocks need water, in these times they dry out
and words have no borders when they’re spoken from the mouth
they can change the route of every ear that hears
resurrect hearts and minds that have died in fear
rebuild a ruined country that’s been flooded by tears
dr. king had a dream of a cheque that would clear
and balanced the books of the oppressed in the rears
there’s nothing like man who knows his tongue as a spear
a warhead that can crush a nation
while the world lokks at him like he’s nuts for statements
money don’t make you courageous, hearts change history
connected missings clues to the unsolved mysteries
my life has seen more hurdles than linford christie
i plan to re-write it with more imagination than disney
[hook]
i was born broke but refuse to die poor
may never be in lights but i master the art of war
though some predicted that royalty wasn’t in my genes
when i write i’m reborn as a king (down with the king!)
