[length: 04:57]
[00:00.87]Here to stay
[00:03.22]Even when I’m gone
[00:06.02]When I close my eyes
[00:08.97]Through the passage of time
[00:12.76]Kings never die
[00:17.40]
[00:25.64]I can hear the drummer drumming
[00:27.76]And the trumpets, someone’s tryna summon someone, I know somethin’s coming
[00:30.51]But I’m runnin’ from it to be standing at the summit
[00:32.66]And plummet, how come it wasn’t what I thought it was
[00:34.19]Was it, too good to be true?
[00:35.96]Have nothin’, get it all but too much of it
[00:38.05]Then lose it again, did I swallow hallucinogens
[00:40.33]Cause if not, where the hell did it go?
[00:42.24]Cause here I sit in Lucifer’s den by the dutch oven
[00:44.30]Just choosing to sin
[00:45.48]Even if it means I’m sellin’ my soul, just to be the undisputed again
[00:48.24]Do whatever I gotta do just to win
[00:50.09]Cause I got this motherfuckin’ cloud over my head
[00:51.93]Crown around it, thorns on it
[00:54.18]Cracks in it, bet you morons didn’t think I’d be back, did ya?
[00:57.21]How ’bout that, I’m somehow now back to the underdog
[01:00.06]But no matter how loud that I bark, this sport is somethin’ I never bow-out at
[01:04.15]I complain about the game, I shout and I pout, it’s a love-hate
[01:07.06]But I found out that I can move a mountain of doubt
[01:09.42]Even when you bitches are countin’ me out, and I appear to be down for the count
[01:12.55]Only time I ever been out and about
[01:14.23]Is drivin’ around town with my fuckin’ whereabouts in a doubt
[01:16.62]Cause I been lost tryna think of what I did to get here but I’m not a quitter
[01:19.54]Gotta get up, give it all I got or give up
[01:21.60]Spit on, shit on, stepped on, but kept goin’
[01:23.60]I’m tryna be headstrong but it feels like I slept on my neck wrong
[01:26.11]Cause you’re moving onto the next, but is the respect gone?
[01:28.72]Cause someone told me that
[01:29.83](Kings never die)
[01:35.08]
[01:38.69]Don’t give me that sob story liar, don’t preach to the choir
[01:41.28]You ain’t never even had to reach in the fire to dig deep
[01:43.87]Nobody ever handed me shit in life, not even a flyer
[01:46.35]Wouldn’t even take shit into consideration
[01:48.50]Obliterate anyone in the way
[01:50.23]I think I see why a lot of rappers get on these features and try to show out on a track with me
[01:54.24]But it’d actually have to be a fuckin’ blow-out to get me to re-tire
[01:57.46]Tell these new artists that kings never die
[01:59.59]Did it just say I’ve been upstaged?
[02:02.68]Why am I online? It’s driving me crazy
[02:04.60]I’m ridin’ shotgun tryna get a gauge
[02:06.29]On what’s hot, but I’m not one to conform
[02:08.06]But as days pass in this shit
[02:09.45]And opinions sway, I can hear ’em say
[02:11.39]If I stay passionate maybe I can stage a miraculous
[02:13.59]Comeback as if I went away
[02:15.23]But detractors just say so much for the Renegade
[02:17.50]Someone’s gonna make me blow my composure
[02:19.36]Here I go again, center stage and I feel like I’m in a cage
[02:21.99]They so want a champion to fall
[02:23.48]It’s no wonder why I laugh at ’em, cause why can’t we win ’em all?
[02:26.00]So fuck what these cynics say
[02:27.44](It) just goes ta show that when my back’s against the wall
[02:30.00]And I’m under a tack again, that I’ll act as if I’m ‘posed ta
[02:32.51]With this pent up rage, cause all these plaques in my office
[02:35.59]On the floor stacked against the door
[02:36.81]Are they just metaphors for the odds of me comin’ back again?
[02:39.72]Cause all the accomplishments, accolades, awards
[02:41.80]And trophies just don’t mean jack anymore
[02:44.23]If I’m here today and gone tomorrow
[02:46.55]And I’m not gonna be
[02:47.40]Here to stay
[02:49.92]Even when I’m gone
[02:52.82]When I close my eyes
[02:55.85]Through the passage of time
[02:59.52]Kings never die
[03:00.26]I want it, I’m comin’ to get it
[03:01.20]So you son of a bitches don’t duck you’re gonna get Riddick Bowe’d
[03:03.09]Critics’ll end up in critical, think your shit is dope all you’re gonna get is smoked
[03:06.55]And I’m not stopping ’til I’m on top again, all alone and on a throne
[03:09.18]Like a token of respect, or a homage poem, or an ode I’ve been owed
[03:12.39]Tossed in the air by my own arm, and launched so hard it broke my collarbone
[03:15.35]And when it’s my time to go, I’m still not leaving
[03:18.24]Stop for no one, I don’t know but I’ve been told an obstacle that
[03:21.64]Blocks your road, knock it over, time to go for that pot of gold, cause
[03:25.14]They say kings never die
[03:26.54]Just ask Jam Master Jay
[03:28.18]They just grow wings and they fly
[03:29.74]So, hands up, reach for the sky
[03:31.21]Try to hold and prolong these moments
[03:33.37]Cause in a blink of an eye
[03:35.12]They’ll be over
[03:37.22]Tryna secure your legacy like Shakur
[03:39.04]And ensure nobody’s ever gonna be what you were
[03:40.96]So before you’re leavin’ this Earth
[03:42.97]You want people to feel the fury of a pure evil cerebral berserk
[03:45.19]Deacon of words, syllable genius at work
[03:47.48]Plus I’m thinkin’ that they’re mistakin’ my kindness for weakness, kill ’em with meanness
[03:50.52]I went from powdered milk and Farina
[03:51.72]To flippin’ burgers on the grill for some peanuts
[03:53.38]From Gilbert’s to arenas, call me Gilbert Arenas, still appeal to the dreamers
[03:56.38]I made it to the silverscreen but Rocky’s still what the theme is
[03:58.50]Khalil on the beat cause makin’ the beat ain’t the same feelin’ to me as killin’ the beat is
[04:01.80]Or fulfillin’ to me is what fillin’ a seat is
[04:03.66]It’s that “Sound Bombing” Thirstin’ Howl
[04:05.43]Common, underground, Diamond D, Outsidaz
[04:06.86]Stomach growl, throbbin’ hunger, out-rhymin’ everyone
[04:08.72]God just give me one shot, I swear that I won’t let you down
[04:12.05]I’ma be around forever-and-a-day, even in the ground
[04:14.45]You ain’t never ever gonna hear ’em say I ain’t
[04:16.78]Here to stay
[04:19.37]Even when I’m gone
[04:22.36]When I close my eyes
[04:25.37]Through the passage of time
[04:28.97]Kings never die
