King is the debut single of Charisma’s EP.
The song King has been praised for it being an anthem to all seeking self worth, self esteem & consciousness. Simple but mature lyrics, which detail the Indian native’s complicated relationship to social media, fakeness, and decadent lifestyles.

[Intro]
Oh I
Can't wait until I become king
Say goodbye to the bullshit and shallow things
No more of their plastic and empty dreams
When I become king (King, king)
[Verse 1]
Can you hear me now, loud and clearly now?
I got shit to say
So just hear me out
Look what's winning now
Are we for real right now?
Building plastic dolls just to make daddy proud
Turn that bullshit off
Play my music loud
Just be who you are
Don't let them tear you down
Have some self esteem, that's Wassup right now
I'm on Skype with my friends like "Wassup right now"
[Verse 2]
Bless my brother Cal
Cuz he helped me up
Peace to my hometown, I'm in LA now
No injected butts, no injected lips
Beauty lies within, that's what always wins out
[Pre-Chorus]
So if you is tired of fakeness as I am
Then give me the freedom to sing
I can't wait, I can't wait to be king
[Chorus]
Oh I
Can't wait until I become king
Say goodbye to the bullshit and shallow things
No more of their plastic and empty dreams
Oh I
Can't wait until I become king
Say goodbye to the bullshit and shallow things
No more of their plastic and empty dreams
When I become king
[Verse 3]
Let me clear the air
This is not a diss
This is opposite of all that gossipin'
This is common sense, mixed with consciousness
This is "I love myself", that's why I'm the shit
So why would I care, if it's not a hit
When was truth ever based on acknowledgement
I got self esteem, plus my squad is lit
That's why we're taking off like a rocket ship
[Verse 4]
So don't try to tell me what's cool right now
I could care less of what's in right now
The only thing I wanna be right now is me
So we don't need you for validity
We know that we can do anything
I can't wait, I can't wait to be king
[Chorus]
Oh I can't wait until I become king
Say goodbye to the bullshit and shallow things
No more of their plastic and empty dreams
Oh I can't wait until I become king
Say goodbye to the bullshit and shallow things
No more of their plastic and empty dreams
When I become king
[Bridge]
Oh -oh -oh
Oh -oh -oh
(Give me the freedom to sing)
(I can't wait, I can't wait to be king)
Oh -oh -oh
Oh -oh -oh
(Give me the freedom to sing)
(I can't wait, I can't wait to be king)
[Chorus]
Oh I
Can't wait until I become king (I can't wait)
Say goodbye to the bullshit and shallow things (I can't wait)
No more of their plastic and empty dreams (Oh)
Oh I
Can't wait until I become king (I can't wait)
Say goodbye to the bullshit and shallow things (I can't wait)
No more of their plastic and empty dreams
When I become King
