Lyrics
[Intro: Blu, sample] "I said, if you could just go back... If you could do it all over again..." "I said, if you could just go back..." Yes-yes, yes "I said, if you could just go back..." Uh, check it "If you could do it all over again..." [Verse 1: Blu] It all started at birth, my arrival put a scar on the Earth When I was born, I seen the stars burst And they weren't fireworks, the Earth shook worst First time I tried to write a verse, to remind me of my worth I was cursed with the gift to be blessed Even when I had less, I'd manifest and turn words into flesh The best, though I never got an 'A' on my test I never failed, even if I failed subjects XXL cover for the Freshmen Warner Brothers contract after Below the Heavens, uh I was steppin' in the right direction 'Til I got dropped, since then, my life's been hectic Fights with po-lice, et cetera For the record, I've been arrested five times Damn, I was goin' out of my mind Until I heard the hook from "The Message," like, "Catch this" [Hook: Ahmad Anwar, samples] I know who I am, made for all this royalty "Are you really ready?" "What can become of kings" That crown fit right on me "Ladies and gentlemen, the star of the show" Broken wings in a City of Angels, we all wanna find our way "Ladies and gentlemen!" "What can become of kings?" But we get lost in the Valley of Kings [Verse 2: Blu] Yeah, I kinda feel like the young boy who learned everything Only to be stricken with amnesia I'm not the man I used to be when I look in the mirror And my fear of fallin' off is gettin' deeper At night, I can't sleep, I toss and turn When I think about the people that I've crossed and burned I was lost and I turned in the wrong direction Tryin' to find myself somewhere in my song's reflection It was dark and hectic, my thoughts were harsh and naked It was me against the whole world, off the record Had to go to jail and get on medics to find out where my head is 'Cause this road was not where I'm headin' It was home I was forgettin' It was on when I got back on my feet, but I was beheaded The whole youth slid ahead of me, effortlessly It was destiny, but they haven't seen the best of me [Scratches: Exile] "This is the sto—" "Story" "This is the sto—" "Story of a champion" "Are you really ready?" "What can become of kings" "This is the story of a champ" "Ladies and gentlemen, the star of the show!" "This is the sto—" "Story of a ch—" "Champion" "Ladies and gentlemen!" "What can become of kings" "This is the story of the young so—" "Soul named Blu" [Hook: Ahmad Anwar] I know who I am, made for all this royalty That crown fit right on me Broken wings in a City of Angels, we all wanna find our way But we get lost in the Valley of Kings
