Lyrics

Verse 1:
Started in the basement, now I’m up in the sky
Used to dream of the throne, now I'm watchin' it fly
Got the world in my palms, but I’m still tryna find
Peace in my mind, balance the fire and grind
They say I’m arrogant, I say I’m just confident
Came from the bottom, now the vision’s so prominent
Haters wanna box me in, but I’m out here breakin’ chains
I see the future clear, no more playin’ these games

Chorus:
I’ve been up, I’ve been down, I’ve been lost, I’ve been found
I know the world spins, but I don’t hear the sound
They try to pull me under, but I rise up from the ground
Yeah, I’m the king, baby, I’m the king, no doubt

Verse 2:
I built this empire from a thought, no limit
Every verse is a sermon, every bar is a mission
I don’t follow the crowd, I’m too busy trippin'
But my soul’s still searchin’ for a deeper dimension
They said I’d fall off, but I’m still on my way
Every setback’s just a setup for a brighter day
I speak what I live, not just for the fame
I’m tryin’ to change the game, not just play it the same

Chorus:
I’ve been up, I’ve been down, I’ve been lost, I’ve been found
I know the world spins, but I don’t hear the sound
They try to pull me under, but I rise up from the ground
Yeah, I’m the king, baby, I’m the king, no doubt

Bridge:
I’m not afraid to break the mold, I make my own path
They can say what they want, but I’ve mastered my craft
In this life, it’s not about the fame or the cash
It’s the legacy you leave when it’s all in the past

Outro:
Yeah, I’m the king, baby, I’m the king, no doubt
Let 'em talk, let 'em watch, I’ll be up in the clouds
I’ve been up, I’ve been down, but I’m still standing proud
‘Cause I’m the king, baby, I’m the king, no doubt
