America the beautiful, gangsta's paradise

For a black man to be rich, you say we sacrifice our own family members

Like we're not savvy enough to make outstanding figures

And ain't nobody in no cult

I give so much, financially give away

But there's an aspect of that that's crippling to us today

Still coping and dealing with my environment as a kid

I trust no one today because what someone in my past did

King, gotta learn to let it go and move forward

King, you should learn to say no, keep all your dough in

King, Michael Jordan gives back and you didn't know it

Like LeBron does, but it's just seldom they show it

King, get ten points from one bird doin' your thing

King, 'til one of your homies decide to sing

King, I started sayin' "Peace King" on my song "The Flyest"

And after that, it took off like fire, peace, King

Take it from a street dude, you don't need to be a street dude

Get a lawyer, read your contract, and eat food

Become Roberta Flack or Lionel

When you catch flack, that mean they got they eye on you

Produce great results, they start to lie on you

Is it love for a Queens dude in Supreme shoes

Or did the street code expire with these dudes?

Especially now, I don't expect you to bow, but stand

Creating jobs, named my venture from after the land

I came from, that's unheard of

A hood that's known for murder now doing mergers

The streets is a lie, don't believe these dudes, jail or death is all you get

They tell you never move, but when they get money, they split

King, gotta learn to let it go and move forward

King, you should learn to say no, keep all your dough in

King, Michael Jordan gives back and you didn't know it

Like LeBron does, but it's just seldom they show it

King, get ten points from one bird doin' your thing

King, 'til one of your homies decide to sing

King, I started saying "Peace King" on my song "The Flyest" (Peace King)

And after that, it took off like fire

They hardly happy for you, keep doing what you do

You can't please everybody, and not everybody is you

Don't try to force a square peg in a round circle, that shit'll hurt you

Don't try to fit in either, you're better off with neither

Few veteran speakers get medicine when you need it

Especially when we all need knowledge instead of sneakers

Stop hangin' on to childhood trauma, it defeats us

Our challenge is holding ourselves back, I hope you felt that

Queen, gotta learn to let it go and move forward

King, you should learn to say no, keep all your dough in

King, Michael Jordan gives back and you didn't know it

Like LeBron does, but it's just seldom they show it

King, get ten points from one bird doin' your thing

King, 'til one of your homies decide to sing

King, I started saying "Peace King" on my song "The Flyest"

And after that, it took off like fire, peace, King
