[Hook: J Cole]
Nigga why you actin' like a ho?
Know that I'ma ride for ya, either way it go
Tell me, girl why you be stressin' me for time?
When you tell me you love me, can't you see I'm tryna climb?
Damn my nigga why you actin' like a bitch?
If you scared to take a chance, how the fuck we gon' get rich?
Come here baby why you always insecure?
Hold on tight to a nigga and be sure
[Verse 1: Ezzy]
Ain’t no way around it no mo'
It never was that
A lot of rappers claim they’re the greatest
I never does that
I just sit back and let the gums flap
I never fuss back
I’ve known I was the chosen one
Since I was in the nut sack
A sperm cell with the heart of a sperm whale
Ready to tackle the world
Never heard of the term "fail"
I've learned well
I knew they’d try to stop the explosion
But God had a better plan
I busted right through the trojan
Blaow!
Out came the Messiah
Darker than you'd think he'd be
Threw him in the hood
Where the youngin's think they're in GBE
He grew up hungry try'na go from EBT to BET
Momma just want my GED
I'm try'na sign to TDE
I'm try'na see me on the TV Screen
They said it's far fetched
Unless you like Ginobili's height
Then that'll be a long stretch
Like, how you try'na ball
And you ain't even gotten tall yet?
Boy, I'm like Metta on Viagra
I'm the hardest Artest
It ain't no world peace
Cause don't nobody wanna do right
Them shells flying
Got the projects lookin' like a food fight
Or koopa troopa
Playing super stupid
They'll shoot ya noodle
Leave you stinking
They gone have to move ya
With a pooper scooper
You and all ya dawgs' scary
Y'all some Scooby Dooby's
I'm like Scrappy Doo
My flow is deep
I'm like a super scuba diver
We are not the same
There's a big difference in you and I
Bruh, you are not a rider
You more like a Uber Driver
I ain't never had a prior job
Nobody can hire God
I dropped "Ya Thought"
They thought I couldn't rap
I find it kinda odd
I got the drive
And plus my breaks is broken
Ain't no try'na stop it
Boy my fire squad is twice as hard
As your entire mob
And I apologize
It's kinda hard to compete
I'm too elite
Mixed with a scholar
And a God of the streets
My momma proud of me
I'm running towards my college degree
Rather than running from police
Who love the sound of the heat
Blaow!
With the speed of a bullet
Soon as you blast it
I was moving onto campus
Working towards my bachelors
And I'm in school for fashion
But that ain't even my passion
So when I be skipping classes
It's cause I be writing classics man
I never thought I'd miss the hood so much
I've grown up
I had to go even tho I ain't wanna
Ya know what?
I wanna blow up
So when I walk the stage
I pray that it's for a Grammy before a diploma!
[Bridge: J Cole]
(Who's the king?)
Came from the bottom nigga, with stains on my shirt
What you expected from me, I came from the dirt
Money my motivator, the songs that I sing
Picture a peasant passin' from pawns to a king
Tell me ya still love me, if so then let me go
Will I return or will I burn, never know
Look in my eyes and see the future
But don't sugar coat it
Listen
[Verse 2: Ezzy]
History repeats itself and nothing's ever changed
Same way that the system had my people locked in chains
Same freedom that Martin Luther King tried to regain
Me, myself, and I be writing rhymes to do the same
While silly niggas argue over who's pockets the fattest
Look around my nigga, our culture is moving backwards
This year I'll prolly question why I even started rappin'
Dropout of all my classes
Cop a pack and get to trappin'
I'm just playing
I could never give up on my own people
Fighting my own ego to save something so evil
Kids go missing like Nemo
And everybody is Debo
And they be holdin' them hammers
My hood is like Home Depot
I'm thankful for the way my parents raised me nigga
Looking at the ghetto like how can I save these niggas?
And is it worth it?
They crucified Jesus and he was perfect
They shootin' but bet you they won't graze me nigga!
AHH!
[Outro]
We all kings
(We all kings nigga)
Kings of ourselves first and foremost
(True)
While the people debate who's the king of this rap game
Here comes lil' ol' Jermaine
With every ounce of strength in his veins
To snatch the crown from whoever y'all think has it
But rather than place it on his head as soon as he grabs it
Poof, boom, paow, it's like magic
With a flash and a BANG the crown disintegrates
And falls to the Earth from which it came
It's done
Ain't gonna be no more kings
Be wary of any man that claims
Because deep down he clings onto the need for power
But in reality he's a coward
Ultimately he's scared to die
And sometimes so am I
But when I'm in tune with the most high
I realize
The fear lies in my lack of awareness of the other side
Today I know that we are the same
Are the same, you and I
Different kind of skin, different set of eyes
Two different minds, but only one God
(It's only one God nigga)
It's for all the kings
Cause I know deep down every poet just wanna be loved
