lirik lagu kings – macklemore & ryan lewis

[intro (sampled): win butler of arcade fire]
my body is a cage

[chorus: buffalo madonna]
in the darkest of days
men become kings and still die of old age
while the children become gods
at last the whole world begins to play

[verse 1: pearl dragon of champagne champagne]
my body is adorned with th-rns
king with a crown of th-rns
i wash my feet and kiss the ground i’m on
i wash my feet kiss the ground i’m on, i’m on
jump n-ggas cos they thought i was a p-wn
but knowing i’m a king, i’m about to get on
this the sirens for the quiet of the storm
ring that alarm, r-r-ring that alarm
yo, her body was adorned, adorned
and i adored her, so much that i had to ignore her
her body i explored it, like an explorer
her first name was dora, her first name was dora
i opened up the door and saw
my queen getting raw, getting raw
so like me beating, resevoir dog
had to hit it raw, no not raw, dog
i was a hog, but i don’t eat the pork
she was a swine, crippling’ my time
on the cast of my pearl, yo she wasn’t my girl
this wasn’t reality, this wasn’t my world
like jimi or kurt before
king with a crown i shall be adored
even if i have, always been ignored
i was not the norm i will not be ignored

[chorus: buffalo madonna]
in the darkest of days
men become kings and still die of old age
while the children become gods
at last the whole world begins to play

[verse 2: sir thomas gray of champagne champagne]
young world, this the story of the kings
a n-gga couldn’t decide should i rap or should i sing
and since god blessed me with my wings
i’m like a lil’ nappy-head bill russell with the rings, feel me?
lately globetrotting through a lotta traps
friends become rats, i’m talkin judas in expensive slacks
f-ck ’em, to tell the truth now, i’m over that
sucker’ll be suckers, it don’t matter that you roll with pack
i steady grab my nuts and you can roll with that
pardon my back, and the weight on my shoulders, black
history’s on my side, these n-ggas hard in they cars
but in the streets they can’t look me in the eye
look me in the eye, look me in the eye
champagne champagne

[verse 3: macklemore]
(can i get ’em?)
stand like a man, move like a legend
talk but with action, that’s how you’ll be remembered
the greats learned that humility is a weapon
sever ties with the part of you too big to learn a lesson
sit in silence, to fight the mind and try to find the present
cos we only get a couple chances to be epic
and i’m connected, like god plugged my headphones
directly into heaven and told me to go and get ’em with this
mic cord, i am, nothing you can tell me
they bark when they talk, but they walk like the legless
the purpose of my art is for people to respect me
i’m not a king, i’m a servant to the desires that tempt me
only way to escape the cage in a valley of roots
be emir to the people when they’re searching for truth
only way to escape the cage in a valley of roots
claim the mirror, my people, keep searchin for you

[chorus: buffalo madonna]
in the darkest of days
men become kings and still die of old age
while the children become gods
at last the whole world begins to play
