[Verse 1]
I used to feel invincible running around reckless
No care about a thing all of it was pretentious
Frontin like I had it with no money to show for it
School shopping for clothes at thrift stores every summer
And like every high school student I wanted all the girls
But the jocks and best dressed got all the girls
Lost in a crowd of people trying to fit in
I told myself I wouldn't waste my time tryin to get in
Mr. Popular was never a title I owned
I guess even back then I was walking alone
My notepad was my bestfriend, then I met my bestfriend
Then I met music, she's with me till the end
Any who still believes in dreaming is still a friend of mine
Those who stop have given up, I'ma let it shine
Cause I don't wanna go through life wondering what if
Just look within and find a gift, you're a king
[Chorus]
In my world I'm the one and only king
If you're searching for the truth then you gotta look within
To prove em all wrong is my mission, I'ma scream it till they listen
Be a follower or are you a king?
Cause they could all talk but they'll never ever hurt me
They could all talk I will never let em hurt me
They could all talk but they'll never ever hurt me
They could all talk I will never let em hurt me
[Verse 2]
Uhh, what up bro? how you been?
You still rappin? you still riding with them?
You still fakin? you still chasing them broads?
You still on that karaoke mic when you record?
I never did no wrong all of yall pushed me aside
You wasn't ready for change but changed when I came by
And I'm the lame guy for wanting something different
Now all of ya'll are awkward but I ain't really trippen
D to the C right? I held it down accordingly
Now people all around the world all got support for me
And I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss ya'll
But every call I made was just a missed call
I still knock those mixtapes from time to time
And memorize every word line for line
I've maintained although I don't have everything
My faith makes me as powerful as any king
[Chorus]
In my world I'm the one and only king
If you're searching for the truth then you gotta look within
To prove em all wrong is my mission, I'ma scream it till they listen
Be a follower or are you a king?
Cause they could all talk but they'll never ever hurt me
They could all talk I will never let em hurt me
They could all talk but they'll never ever hurt me
They could all talk I will never let em hurt me
[Verse 3]
My kingdom is right here
Lights low turn it up till I'm clear
I will never let no man do me harm
Cause we all been scared for too long
Turn the page cause its time for a new beginning
Where all the losers are winning and all the poor are spending
All the money let us ball till we fall
Let us dress in the plush gear we never had at all
Its something you will never understand
Have you ever lost a loved one cause you couldn't pay the man
Thats supposed to provide the treatment
I watched my cousin die, I watched his mama cry
And it k**ed me inside
Just one of the many stories thats never told
But as long as I'm breathing then I'ma let em all know
My people are starving its time to act now
Cause not every one of us can be Pacquiao
[Chorus]
In my world I'm the one and only king
If you're searching for the truth then you gotta look within
To prove em all wrong is my mission, I'ma scream it till they listen
Be a follower or are you a king?
Cause they could all talk but they'll never ever hurt me
They could all talk I will never let em hurt me
They could all talk but they'll never ever hurt me
They could all talk I will never let em hurt me
