Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey
Hey you there
Where's your crown?
You didn't leave the house without your crown did you?
Just as sure as the earth is round
We bounce back up when they throw us down
So don't forget your crown
And hold your head high
Like you caught a glimpse of God through clouds
And you stuck in awe
Don't worry we got y'all
Mind and body, body and mind, tell 'em homies
The world is bigger than your street and mine
And that color and this
And every shade of our skin is rich
Knowing your future depends on our involvement so
Block boys
Block boys
It's in our hands more than Parliament
The gun can kill or the gun can save
Rather congratulate a stage than to carry him to a grave
That's responsibility
My brothers keeper
My sister's big sister
Life full of lemons we just gotta add a little sugar to
To those sweat dreams
You can be anything
Go farther than me
Be better than him
Climb higher than her
And never, ever let 'em knock your crown
That's my word
All hands on deck
Making kings and queens of all cards we dealt
Jamla
Rock nation
Let's go
[Verse 2]
Uh
I lied to mamma one time when I was eleven
Riding in the care she told me someone won't forget it
Truth gonna chase the light no matter what night that you said it
It made me feel so low she peeled my feelings back like lettuce
With no salad, told me to save all of the carriage for the ballads
Now I'm dropping jewels as if we gave up on the marriage
I know it's hard to handle we ain't come here in no carriage
The hood is for the rain and where they throw us is the barracks
It's where we learn to master beats without a panther or a ferret
It came out in the 80's, same as me, I was a baby
And what I learn 'bout life is lord is sure is not the fairest
If your skin ain't as fair as all the Becky's, Tiffany's, and Sarah's
[Verse 3]
Black don't crack
Obama ain't flinch
I sat inside that White House having conversations
How boys turn to men if we show 'em more than the rims
If they jumping high for the rims
Ain't a goal that we cannot win
I'm setting picks for you and then I hope you roll off
Million black graduates, woo, Just go and show off
Reaching out to everyone form the top to block y'all
Lemonade pitchers we grew up with, what's a curve ball?
Made something out of nothing
Better out of worse
Take care of your own, I know I gotta do that first
I know there's power in my time
I know there's power in a verse
Tell a kid good job and tell him go hard on the work
You know the world you grew up in is very small compared to earth
It's the worst, they lied and told you your limits on the future
Y'all can brush it off though, came back around and groom ya
Me, Alicia, Talib, Busta, everyone and you yeah, ah
[Verse 4]
In life there ain't no rules
Rule whatever you dream you can do
Do
They tell me I'm a king
Woo
They tell me I'm a queen
Woo
In life there ain't no rules
Rule whatever you dream you can do
Do
They tell me I'm a king
They tell me I'm a queen
