lyrics
I just wanna be a king
With a million things
Just so I could show the world that it don’t mean a thing
It mean the same
I just wanna king
But it’s overdue
Making money, drinking alcohol gon’ turn you blue
And I can see it turning you
I done lost like 21 friends
Tryna get it back, tryna ducks feds
I don't give a f*ck if it ain’t about business
Been through sh*t but its worth forgiveness
Tryna make a change that’ll change the world
But it ain’t about bands and it ain’t about girls
Tryna give the peace that’ll free my kids
Need to feed them streets and leave my sins
Yeah, Poor lil' boy ain’t have no voice
Corner stores, pit bulls in chains
Can’t no money heal this pain
Folding up was no option that I had, I made a choice
Death around us in the air but I could still could hear the noise
God damn when I double up, knife in the side of me
Just keep it a hundred, my n***a don’t lie to me
Keeping it even, don’t want them red-dotting me
Still stuck in the plain, no saying, where the plane be spotting me
Yeah, same old sh*t, with the same old things
Bob and weave was how we move
Nobody knew
I just wanna be a king
With a million things
Just so I could show the world that it don’t mean a thing
It mean the same
I just wanna king
But it’s overdue
Making money, drinking alcohol gon’ turn you blue
And I can see it turning you
I done lost like 21 friends
Tryna get it back, tryna ducks feds
I don't give a f*ck if it ain’t about business
Been through sh*t but its worth forgiveness
Tryna make a change that’ll change the world
But it ain’t about bands and it ain’t about girls
Tryna give the peace that’ll free my kids
Need to feed them streets and leave my sins
We the same kids that was left in the sandbox
Little we knew how this sh*t would’ve been
We was just tripping on bitches like digging a hole
Seen OG’s OD, my feet so cold
Shot, Shot, Shot, Shot
Shot number 1, that was meant for me
Shot number 2, went and hit my man
3 and 4, he ain’t live to see
NLMB, I’m holding on
Folk I’ll meet you back in heaven it won't be long
But I still remain at peace, I’m moving on
When I make it to the top, I’ll put you on
I could feel you in these songs
I just wanna be a king
With a million things
Jus so I could show the world that it don’t mean a thing
It mean the same
I just wanna king
But it's overdue
Making money, drinking alcohol gon’ turn you blue
And I can see it turning you
I done lost like 21 friends
Tryna get it back, tryna ducks feds
I don't give a f*ck if it ain’t about business
Been through sh*t but its worth forgiveness
Tryna make a change that’ll change the world
But it ain’t about bands and it ain’t about girls
Tryna give the peace that’ll free my kids
Need to feed the street and leave my sins
