King For A Day

[Verse 1]

It's kinda funny, as the world is crumbling

I have managed to find my peace

And often I feel sorta guilty, privileged and filthy

Getting seconds while the rest never eat

Mom, I made it, your son has got a name

And you can brag to your Facebook friends, but we shouldn't forget

While we're thriving, most are just surviving

Missing meals just to pay for the rent

[Chorus]

But if I was king for a day

I would sell my throne

Buy a castle for my friends to go

Give me a crown for a week

I would make it cheap

Free liquor and a place to eat

'Cause we're dying for a living

Tryna make a killing off of pennies don't make no sense

But if I was king for a day

We would all be rich

Anything's better than this

[Verse 2]

It's getting lonely, I haven't seen my homies

Tommy's working twelve-hour shifts, it's like he doesn't exist

From cutting lines to working overtime

'Cause he's married with a couple of kids

I could flip the script, I could fix the system

Put the ladies in the yard and the boys in the kitchen

Would it work? I don't know, but it'd sure be great

Give me a month, I'll be burned at the stake

[Chorus]

But if I was king for a day

I would sell my throne

Buy a castle for my friends to go

Give me a crown for a week

I would make it cheap

Free liquor and a place to eat

'Cause we're dying for a living

Tryna make a killing off of pennies don't make no sense

But if I was king for a day

We would all be rich

Anything's better than this

[Bridge]

Citizens of the world, hear me now

I'm gonna bring peace to the streets

If your wife needs new tits

If you need a bigger dick, I'm gonna make that happen for you

Government-funded G-Wagons, cocaine, and milkshakes

Vote for me now

[Chorus]

'Cause if I was king for a day

I would sell my throne

Buy a castle for my friends to go

Give me a crown for a week

I would make it cheap

Free liquor and a place to eat

'Cause we're dying for a living

Tryna make a killing off of pennies don't make no sense

But if I was king for a day

We would all be rich

And maybe it would all go to shit
