Black Kings
Uh, yeah, something special
We always have songs for the kids and the songs for the queens
We hardly got any songs to uplift our kings
But I think it's about time we start changing things
Cause contrary to belief, that still means something
At least the fathers who were there in their kids' life were the ones who married a long time and still love their wives
We send flowers to a job just to brighten the day
And ain't afraid of PDA, public affection on display
Okay, P-A-D, but you get what I mean
This is a song to uplift all of our black kings
From the young to the old, the wise and the bold
The young cats who grew up with that old man's soul
To the ones who put forth an effort every single day
To the hustlers on they grind who ain't got no time to play
And I ain't talking about the brothers slinging drugs for the green
I'm talking family men, back business owners with an LLC
Matter of fact, this for my brothers from every walk of life
Christians, Jehovah Witness, or a Hebrew-Israelite
I salute you, black king, til the day you leave this earth
Cause you were royal seed predicted, way before your birth
This one here for my black kings all over the world
Dark, light, or brown skin, if you down with the swirl
No judgment my way, man, you love who you love
I'm just trying to honor you like the father above
Descended from greatness, yeah, you always stun
This for fathers, brothers, uncles, grandpas, and sons
Every man in the world that look like me
This one for you, black man, dripped in royalty
This one for my brothers on lockdown
Doing hard time for a simple weed charge
Keep your head high, the system wants to make examples out of people like me
I can't wait until the day all my brothers are free
To my brothers on the grind, working that 9 to 5
I see you dawg, keep pushing cause it's almost your time
For you to break free of them chains they place on your mind
Ownership is the goal, it's time for you to shine
To the nerds, to the jocks, to the gamers who play
Straight men, gay men, you got riches and fame
Skinny, buff, or big men, we celebrated the same
We all precious in the sight, when it comes to the king
We was made to be heads and never the tails
Natural born leaders, even though sometimes we fail
But that's okay, cause even though we might make mistakes
The only L's we accepting is the ones to elevate
This one here for my black kings all over the world
Dark, light, or brown skin, if you down with the swirl
No judgment my way, man you love who you love
I'm just trying to honor you, like the father above
Descended from greatness, yeah you always stun
This for fathers, brothers, uncles, grandpas, and sons
Every man in the world that look like me
This one for you black man, dripped in royalty
This one for you black man, dripped in royalty
This one for you black man, dripped in royalty
This one for you black man, dripped in royalty
This one for you black man, dripped in royalty
We always have songs for the kids and the songs for the queens
We hardly got any songs to uplift our kings
