Down With the King

Reporters clock, producers jock
They wanna be down with the king
The king, the king
The king, the king, king
The king, the king
The king, the king, king
The king, the king, king
The king, the king
Producers die, they wanna be down
Wanna be down with the king

Down with the king for years, about ten of 'em
Recruiting suckers mackin' mic, and makin' men of 'em
Tears and fears for my peers, they rippin'
You think that it is, it is, if not it isn't
Race for the border my daughter, cause beats you're bangin' out
Jeeps rockin' beats in the streets when there's time for hangin' out
Gather, or rather form a circle around a loud
'Cause brothers or others could never ever rock a crowd
Is it because he's runnin' off with the mouth
Or was he really clearly tryin' to play a nigga out
Nope, shut him down, the king with a crown
'Cause all you wanna be is Diggy Down

Down with the king (Come on)
(Come on) The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
(Come on) The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king

Two years ago, a friend of mine
Asked me to say some MC rhymes
So I said this rhyme I'm about to say
The rhyme was meeca, and it went this way
Recollect a mecca mic check on the windmill skills
Mac distracts, wearing Godfather hats
It's okay to parlay to forte better
Tell 'em my nigga made a sweater tougher than leather
Swing another Rodney King thing and I'll wreck
But just like the white one I get no respect
Money stay awake, 'cause them other niggas are fake
From Hollis to the Beacon, now your dumb ass is leakin'
C.L. and Run D.M.C. so rush it
Big time weight before Hammer got to touch it
Remember the faces in all types of places
Look Ma, no shoelaces
And I'm

Down with the king
(You wanna be) The king down with the king
(You wanna be) The king down with the king
(You wanna be) The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
(You wanna be) The king down with the king
The King

I'm takin' the tours, I'm wreckin' the land
I keep it hardcore because it's dope man
These are the roughest toughest words I ever wrote down
Not meant for a ho like a slow jam, check it
Sucka MCs could never swing with D
Because of all the things that I bring with me
Only G-O-D could be a king to me
And if the G-O-D be in me, then the king I be
The microphone is branded when it's handed to me
I was planted on this planet and I plan to MC
The MC fiends only seem to agree
That I rock all the world and the society
Outrageous on the stages with a tune of verse
I give praises from these pages to the universe
My voice is raw, my lyrics is law
I keep it hardcore like you never saw
You be wanna be

Down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The King

I'm the man you see, in the place to be
I went to John Jay University
And since kindergarten I acquired the knowledge
And after twelve grade I went straight to college
Down with the kings on the mic, a full swinger
The P to the R, not an R&B singer
The R to the U-N-D-MC'n
The fly human beings, tonight I hold the key and
Flowin' with the funk track, here to soul brother black
Pick up the bass, better yet leave a space
So let me put my big black twinkie on in to the early mornin'
Had skins yawning'
Mecca? (yo), you want the mecca? (yo)
I'll make a funky beat so we can blow, check it out
Pete Rock's the beat knock, put you in a headlock
And now all the outty out flock is down with the king

Down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
The king down with the ki-
The king down with the ki-
The king down with the king
The king down with the king

The king down with the
The king down with the
The king down with the ki-
The king down with the ki-
The king down with the ki-
The king down with the ki-
The king down with the ki-
The king down with the ki-
The king down with the king
The king down with the king
