Lyrics Down With The King

The king the king the king the king the king
The king the king the king the king the king
The king the king the king the king the king
Down with the king
Down with the king for years about ten of 'em
Recruiting suckers Mac and
Mike 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 'cos 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
Just 'cos 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 out
Nope shut him down the king with a crown
'Cos all you wanna be is dicky down
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
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
Wrecka lecka mecca mic check on the windmill skills
Mac distracts wearing
Godfather hats
It's okay to parlay to fortee better tell 'em tougher than leather
Swing another rodney King thing in our right
But just like the white one I get no respect
Money stay awake 'cos them other is fake
From Hollis to the Becon you know your dumb ass is leakin'
CL and Run DMC so rush it big time way before hammer got to touch it
Remember all the faces in all types of places look Ma no shoelaces and I'm
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 takin' the tours
I'm wreckin' the land
I keep it hardcore 'cos it's dope man
These are the roughest toughest words I ever wrote down
Not mean for a hoe like a slow jam check it
Sucka emcees 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 granted when it's handed to me
I was planted on this planet and I plan to emcee
The emcee fiends only seem to agree
That I rock all the world and the society
I rages on the stages with a tune of verse
I get praises from these pages to the universe
My voice is raw my lyrics is law
I keep it hardcore like you never saw you 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 n' B singer
The R to the U N D MC and the human fly beings tonight I hold the key
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 tweeky on in
To the early mornin' had the skins yearnin'
Mecca you want the mecca
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 'cos I'm
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
