Kings & Queens

[Verse 1]
Lit incense and lit incentives
I've never paid attention this intensive
For all intents and purposes
I've been a perching, penny-pinching
With a pen and pencil penchant being pensive
Trying to figure out the ways of the world
How to maneuver
Through the rats and the sewers
Bullcrap and manure
Napoleon Hill complex more the mighty medulla
Manifesting many thoughts getting set in stone like Medusa
God damn
I've been making something structured out of nothing
Making souls out of substance
Making songs out of suffering
Suffering succotash, I done set a task of abundance
Making bundles of these ballads
You bumping for mass consumption
Basking in thrills, masking my evils and ills
Practicing people skills just to pass to my negus
That's how a leader do
So before you go home and believe the TV
About how you should see your people
Just know who's speaking the truth
God damn

[Hook]
They're all throwing dirt on my name lately
They all threw some salt on our game
They all tried to get us to change lately
They all said we couldn't be kings
I'm a king now
You's a queen
He's a king now
She's a queen

[Verse 2]
My negus getting patted by policemen
Turn around and organize a rally at the precinct
Like Mr. Mayor, why your workers treating us indecent?
With all my tax dollars blown, it's going off the deep end
Cats working 9 to 5 and then from 9 to 5 they creepin'
Trying to survive the trying times
With honest work and Mama grieving
All this cancer-causing meat
And negus can't afford the treatment
Baby daughter's womb is barren from a bad aborted fetus
My negus, my negus
Sing loyalty allegiance
Bunch of prodigies that's mobbing deep
This havok we been wreaking
If there's cops up in our block, use a watch word to reach us
If you get locked up on Friday, you can say goodbye to weekend
My negus, my negus
Don't ever let them play you out filthy
The same way them so-called journalists call us thugs
In the national newspaper without being found guilty
If ya'll bringing me down, ya'll are going down with me
Amen

[Hook]
They're all throwing dirt on my name lately
They all threw some salt on our game
They all tried to get us to change lately
They all said we couldn't be kings
I'm a king now
You's a queen
He's a king now
She's a queen

[Bridge]
I believe we can fly
But we're too busy running
I believe we can hide
Cause the future keeps coming
I believe we can fly
I believe we can soar
Though I call us all kings
I believe we're much more
I believe we can fly

[Hook]
They're all throwing dirt on my name lately
They all threw some salt on our game
They all tried to get us to change lately
They all said we couldn't be kings
I'm a king now
You's a queen
He's a king now
She's a queen

[Outro]
I could walk outside now and get sh-(gunshot)
