Lyric

[Intro — low, focused hum, sub-bass creeping in]

(Yeah)

(Listen)

From nothing to something, they never saw me

Now they all watch, they all know me

[Verse 1 — rapid-fire delivery, syllable-packed]

I was the kid in the back with the hood up

No one looked twice, no one stood up

Just a face in the crowd, no shine, no spark

Walking through the day like I'm walking through the dark

Then the pressure hit, cracked the foundation

Fell through the cracks, lost in the frustration

Every scar I got, I earned it in the dirt

Every tear I shed, I turned into work

They said I'd never make it, never stand tall

But I used every stone they threw to build my wall

Now I'm standing on the summit, looking down at the fall

(Yeah, look at me now)

[Hook — swaggering, chant-like, sub-bass punches]

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king

Watch the crown gleam, watch the bells ring

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king

Every obstacle I break, every challenge I bring

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king

Built this throne from the mud, hear the people sing

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king

(Yeah, I'm the king)

[Verse 2 — spit-focused, escalating tension]

No one saw the nights I spent grinding on the low

No one saw the hunger in my eyes begin to grow

Every failure was a lesson, every setback was a test

I took all the pain and I laid it to rest

Now the stage is set, the mic is on, the lights are bright

I'm the king of the rhythm, I'm the king of the night

Every word I spit, it cuts through the air

Every beat I hit, it's a statement, it's a prayer

They used to whisper, now they shout my name

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king of the game

(Yeah, hear me)

[Hook — swaggering, chant-like, sub-bass punches]

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king

Watch the crown gleam, watch the bells ring

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king

Every obstacle I break, every challenge I bring

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king

Built this throne from the mud, hear the people sing

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king

(Yeah, I'm the king)

[Verse 3 — relentless, full-energy flow]

From the bottom to the top, it's been a long, hard road

But I never gave up, I never lost my soul

Every scar is a story, every win is a dream

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king of the scene

They can't stop me now, I'm on a roll

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm in control

Every beat I drop is a testament to my past

I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the king, I'm the last

(Yeah, I'm the king)

[Outro — fade with a solitary, resolute synth line]

(I'm the king)

(From the bottom, now I'm here)

(King)

(Yeah)

(King)

[End]
