Big K.R.I.T. - The Life of Kings lyrics

[Verse 1: Phonte] Back with that new new to tell you where I come from Sing a song so I could never be unsung They think I'm on some, being fair weather Its just my ensemble don't care whether You shake your tail feathers, or your pom poms Razor sharp n***a bong bong Its a bad time to be a mc if you ain't rhyming right I spit that China white n***a call it Hong Kong Hit the city to see one of my school mates Making six figures but she still got a roommate Just to have a downtown apartment and some outfits And you asking why I never leave the south, sh**... [Hook] Take some time to dream Peace of mind is a delightful thing This is the life of kings [Verse 2: Evidence] People be confused how I move with the utmost Respect and yet I get my due And true, I got nothing to prove Could be my new objective but let's not object to truth (cough cough) on days like these I count my blessings and say my dreams Out loud when I wake up The voice up inside of my head Telling EV lets get on the day and out of this bed Kiss my mother gave my daughter a pound Then she hugged me (what) then she turned around In my time the life of a king is undefinable The closest we might get is pressed up to the vinyl though sh**... [Hook] [Verse 3: Big K.R.I.T] Now some consider me a tyrant Cause I would rather push chariots, dodging them sirens Trunk beating like violence, searching for me a vibrant thing More concerned with what books I read than what side I claim Got a vision to be veteran With a future brighter than a writer deciphering light by Thomas Edison Cause you remind me of a derelict relishing on relishments Too busy throwing rocks at my throne to find a chair to sit I'm the type of king you'll probably see Coretta with Country bred, country raised, and intelligent Rosebud lifestyle and yours is petal-less The hand of God and mine you shouldn't mettle with My reign is benevolent Ever since I fell out the womb I was destined to conquer melodies [Hook]
