[Chorus: Jake Troth & Justxn Paul]
Do you really wanna be a king?
On top of everything
Do you really wanna be a king? (Uh, lawd)
[Break: Justxn Paul]
Versace Greek Medusas turn your heart to stone
Made us all so cold (Huh, uh)
I think I'm one of the ghosts of my parent's dead dreams
Things I pursued and
Like
[Verse 1: Justxn Paul]
With every dollar you make, there's a heart that you break
Every dollar you spend, than you lose another friend, uh
You see it's time now, you know what fearless
And you know them guns and knives? Them never scared us
Raise your glass, bow your head, and I'll propose a toast
My dreams and my drugs, until I fucking overdose
Power to my peers, all this rhyming that you hear
I'm dropping jewels for you niggas, diamonds for your ears
We balling Jack, marble on the floors
Showed up in that Lexus, but we all one accord
Forty-eight doors on my dresser, .45 up in the drawer
Dreams of the forty-forty, with president forty-four
The longer they keep it from me, I'm wantin' it more and more
More, more, so let the shit pour
I won't bow, I won't kneel, no
Fuck the game, hold still, hoe, uh
[Chorus: Jake Troth]
So you wanna be a king?
Do you really wanna be a king?
On top of everything
Do you really wanna be a king?
[Verse 2: Justxn Paul]
Promises made, promises strayed and
Promises kept
Looking back to look for it, what could be more important than
What you promised yourself? Nah
Promised myself I change my life by now, uh
A different person when the lights are down, uh
Russian roulette, no hedging your bets
A handful of victories, a shitload of regrets
Uh, that ice cold crushed velvet
Uh, from the shoulders of Elvis
Don't catch me, let them watch me fall
Even the King of Pop fell of the wall
Pain in your future, they'll prosecute yer
Whether LeBron James or Martin Luther
Make this promise and I keep it for as long as I can
But it's no longer a secret, I'm the motherfucking man, uh
