King of Detroit - Royce 5'9

You gon’need a lot more guns to shoot wit us A lot more jewels to floss wit us It’s gon’take a lot more power to fuck wit us And a lot more niggaz to buck wit us

I’m the King of Detroit, I’m the King of the Kings

The King of the ring, cause y’all niggaz be swingin the sting

I’m doin my thing, you only worth TWO of my rings

It’s you and my team, at war for tryin to ruin my reign

Imagine a thought of that

It’s Motown, it’s where this black music shit started at All I did was brought it back

Get it right, I’m over your block and I must succeed

I don’t know how much you need, but it’s more than you got

These niggaz rippin and robbin with the fifth in the closet

Cause y’all niggaz ignorant logic got you slippin and dodgin

We bring to a violent halt whatever beef we have

I hate losin, so you’ll probably never see me mad

Just here to rewind it back to where time had begun

It’s the size of the gun, the trigger and the nigga behind it

I’m the King of the throne, I stood up to sing you a song

to get the platinum plaques back to the city, bring it home

Yo, yo, yo, yo You welcome to floss and receive a consecutive loss

All I need’s a second to talk to get my message across

Out-of-towners come to Detroit with all they mens

and that’s a gamble, you know the house always wins

I’m the savior of rap, y’all wanna be like the third verse missed

Street this, thug that — rhymin my life in first-person

You could never rise, no matter how high it seems

I’m the man with a eye, in the land of the blind of Kings

Trust this, no one could touch this — the difference is the average nigga brings it to jail, that’s why I bring it to justice

My shit be well-thought out, y’all niggaz just writin a rhyme

That’s why most of the time you bitin a rhyme

I’m simple and plain, quick to speak a nigga in vain

Cause niggaz done changed, it’s very few niggaz with brain

Speak from your heart, and I aim for your chest, I’m done wit it

Y’all rap niggaz want your respect?

Then come get it Yo, yo, yo.

we must, represent for us Cause where we from, we eat, sleep and shit Detroit and that’s us

Y’all slide by, side by the real niggaz

ain’t nothin but stand by to get killed niggaz — what!

Tryna make the most of this time, we ain’t inside forever

This is life, nobody makes it out alive — NEVER

I’m the King of the throne, I stood up to sing you a song

to get the platinum plaques back to Detroit, bring it home
