I'm getting tired of your disrespectWell, it's evident I'll always be the bestWhether or not you're being serious or say it in jestI've got a light sense to right; you haven't passed your testYeah, I'm good with words, and you're fucking chronicForever second fiddle, your tales, I'm sonicIs this the baddest I can go? I can get much badderI've been doing this since you've been in your huggieshold your bladderYou've been studying me, wetting yourselfCause you're afraid when I rise you'll be left on the shelfWhere you belong; with the rest of the wannabesDon't ever ask me to support you, you can never follow meI've been holding my tongue for a long whileSat back, watch you parade my styleLock him in a prison for plagiarismnobody wants to listen, chavs dyingmight as well kill him or pretendTo the crown, turn around, sit down; I'm the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingAnything you can do, I can do betterEven when she's soaked through, I could make her wetterStop try'na make me look badso you can be taken seriouslyWhat makes you think I give a fuck what people think of me?You disrespect me now I'm obligated to destroyWhy would anybody go to war with men? you're just a boyNothing to write about so put your barbie biro downSave yourself embarrassment, fucking clownYou making movesbecause you be mollycoddled silver spoonYour skills are average, good at copying, carry a tuneAll the gear, no idea, daddy's bank accountAnd when it comes to your abilities, small amountWhen you compare it to what I can bring, it's minusculeYou're the pupil; I'm the teacher, go back to school!You have to be in possession of the limelightfor me to come and take it from youwhy don't you get it right?I've been holding my tongue for a long whileSat back, watch you parade my styleLock him in a prison for plagiarismnobody wants to listen, chavs dyingmight as well kill him or pretendTo the crown, turn around, sit down; I'm the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingI've been holding my tongue for a long whileSat back, watch you parade my styleLock him in a prison for plagiarismnobody wants to listen, chavs dyingmight as well kill him or pretend ohTo the throne, turn around, sit down; I'm the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the kingLong live the king
