King Back

[Produced by Just Blaze]

[Intro: Just Blaze]

And the prophecy read

That one day, like the phoenix arose from the ashes

That a boy will be born unto a family in the slums

This boy will go on to use the knowledge he gained

While fighting for survival in the streets

To become a great leader

And in time, that boy will grow to become...

KING!

[Interlude: T.I. & Just Blaze]

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Time to ride, nigga

Just Blaze!

[Verse 1: T.I.]

I welcome you to get acquainted with the youngest in charge

Respected from east to west like he was running the mob

Dictating, ain't taking orders from no one but God

I know you niggas is broke 'cause I know what you charge

You niggas wishing for a Phantom; it's one in my garage

It's black as legary, right next to the platinum Ferrari

You niggas ain't getting money off of rapping, I'm sorry

Fucked the rent up, went and spent up 60 large on a Harley

Is where you stay 10,000 square feet? Not hardly

Now, you see that we ain't able to compete, now, are we?

Ayy, pardon me—I'm giving you the West Side Story

Of the A, where I stay; niggas stay down for me

Wanna play? pack a gay niggas lay down for me

And get a order for killers to spray rounds for me (Ayy, ayy)

Competition, you ain't considered; you rapping, you boring me

You repping the A horribly—must I say? More importantly

[Hook: T.I.]

The king back! (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

Nigga, the king back (Yeah, yeah, uh-yeah, yeah)

You better lean back (Ayy, ayy, ayy, why's that?)

Nigga the king back (Uh, aight, ayy, tell these niggas, what!)

The king back! (Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh-ayy!)

Nigga, the king back (Ayy, ayy, ayy, OH!)

Shawty you seen that? (What happened, my nigga?)

Nigga, the king back (Aight, let's tell these niggas, ayy!)

[Interlude: T.I.]

Ayy, man y'all niggas got me way too fucked up, you understand that?

What you need to do is, homeboy—

You need to go back and grab I'm Serious, you know

You need to get familiar with Dope Boyz and see where all these niggas got they style right now

See where that trap shit came from

Then you need to graduate to motherfucking In the Streets, Volume 1 through 3

Then you need to go to Trap Muzik

I got locked up for a second

Then grab Urban Legend

And that'll bring you up to speed, nigga

[Verse 2: T.I.]

Who knew you could fit on your wrist a whole pound of diamonds?

I'm number one on the list while you clowns are climbing

Wishing to be in positions that you found that I'm in

Since you niggas do what I say, I'm world-renowned as "Simon"

If Jay handled the clay, and around the time

I deliver a bad day when four-fives is firing

I care the least about polices and the fireman's siren

Ambulances ain't gon' stand a chance at reviving (Hey)

DOA—that mean you be deceased upon 'em arriving

Paramedics yell, "Clear!" and your flatline silent

You ain't ready for out here 'cause the lifestyle violent

Think you is, you must be living on Fantasy Island

You make us mad, get your ass wiped out like Thailand

Hit for four like I went up and drained the three while you fouling

To say you want it with me's to go to war with the finest

Need you be reminded? Want it with Your Highness?

[Hook: T.I.]

The king back! (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

Nigga, the king back (Yeah, yeah, uh-yeah, yeah)

You better lean back (Ayy, ayy, ayy, why's that?)

Nigga the king back (Uh, aight, ayy, tell these niggas, what!)

The king back! (Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh-ayy!)

Nigga, the king back (Ayy, ayy, ayy, OH!)

Shawty you seen that? (What happened, my nigga?)

Nigga, the king back (Aight, let's tell these niggas, ayy!)

[Outro: T.I.]

Ayy, man, I know y'all niggas in the trap every day, still, man

I know y'all niggas don't see nothing but the projects, nothing but bricks

But listen, make no motherfucking mistake man

I still will suit up my motherfucking self, AK and 45, nigga, on side, nigga, and come see 'bout niggas, you understand?

But I don't wanna do that 'cause I respect that shit y'all doing

I started that shit

I made that shit cool

I made these niggas want to be you, nigga

Nigga, respect this shit!
