King of the North

[Hook]
King! King! King! King! King! King!
I'm King of the North they call me the-
King! King! King! King! King! King!
I'm King of the North-
King!

[Verse 1]
Ladies and Gentlemen
Right now you're listening to the King of the North
Yo'
Can I get a clap please?
Can I have the bell start ringing?
Can we have the ladies singing?
Cause this one gotta be right
And this isn't a funeral
So you can take the black clothes off
Can everybody switch their phones off
We're gonna celebrate life
Is that the horns that's sounding?
Hopefully we've not got long left
Is there anybody out there?
Alright, we're going in five
How do I look, am I decent?
Do you think I should change this footwear?
To something a little more formal, no?
Alright let's celebrate life

[Verse 2]
I'm the King of the North
Like it or lump it, fuck what you thought
They come out in the thousands just to support
They play trumpets in the background when I talk
I wear tracksuits not to be casual
I just don't wanna change now that I'm rich
I wanna wear what I wore when I was poor
And right now I'm tryin' to inspire the kids
I changed the game
I changed the game so much
Them niggas are physically scared
When I'm in your face
I'm everywhere to the point man think their visions impaired
They don't want me to win
They don't want me to get a trophy
They want me to kiss their feet
But I'm not the king, cause I said that I was the king
Just listen to the people speak

[Hook]
King! King! King! King! King! King!
I'm King of the North they call me the-
King! King! King! King! King! King!
I'm King of the North-
King!

[Verse 3]
I'm King of the North
Forget what other MC's wanna say
Me, I got given this name by the fans
And I'm not letting 'em down, no way!
Cause they say fortune favours the brave
Now that I'm lucky enough to have fans
They know that I will die for this shit
I've already got one foot in the grave
And I'm knee deep, into this music 'ting and all I wanted to do was vent
Now I've got Wireless and when I do Wireless there's hardly any room left in the tent
Housing benefits would pay for the rent
I would sell a Henry the eighth to my friend
I've done my first CD in 2-10
Now I do a CD and I get a top ten
Mum was scared
I was on the road so much
I forgot what it was to be safe
Plus I'd be carrying a bladed article, just in case anybody got in my face
She gotta be fast if you gonna take chase
You gotta be bad if you're gonna show face
But I swore to God that I'd make it
And now that I made it, can somebody say grace? (Please)

[Outro]
How's everybody feelin'?
Don't want anybody nervous
I've come to serve one purpose
And that's celebrate life
Can you make sure the old king's watching
And the prince if you can please
You got them a seat right?
Let them see me shine
Can I just say thanks to my true fans
Without you, I wouldn't have made it
You walk with me and I'm grateful
And I'm no longer facing time
But how do I look, am I decent?
Do you think I should change this footwear?
To something a little more formal, no?
Alright let's celebrate life

[Hook]
King! King! King! King! King! King!
I'm King of the North they call me the-
King! King! King! King! King! King!
I'm King of the North-
King!
King! King! King! King! King! King!
I'm King of the North they call me the-
King! King! King! King! King! King!
I'm King of the North-
King!
