John Martin - King Lear lyrics

[Intro] Pa-pa-pa-pa (x3) [Verse 1: Sam Lachow] My bald dad is way too f**ing cool for a toupée My little brother won't stop playing NBA, 2K! My girl says I should make some real hip-hop, like Lupe And stop saying you b**h in every song Touché! Damn, I have no money when I need it These days I don't seem to get the munchies when I 'm weeded Last song was hella hoppin', and never caught a buzz I guess I'm not the famous rapper that I thought I was [Bridge] I'm always late to the venue I'm always ready to order I never check out the menu Then you, quickly realize you pa**ed on the right dish And when your homeys play the rap You gonna ask for a bite sh** Then you, hit the stage and realize none of your people showed up Instead of feeling crunchy, you blame it on your promoter Then you, tell your friends they offend you You don't feel any better than you did, but you pretend to [Hook 2X] I had to check my attitude to get I'm too high, egos too high I had to calm down Who's the cool guy now? I'm King Lear I'm King Lear A human being I'm King Lear [Verse 2: Sam Lachow] Yesterday a blogger told me switch up my style I need a little more hipster, a little less of Lachow Maybe then they right about the track you worked so long on Maybe then you'll find the f**ing blog to put your song on Damn, Sam Is that what YouTube needs? Another stoner white rapper on your YouTube screen? I keep telling myself I'm happening The hottest kid in Manhattan I'm rapping around my thoughts With a maker's mark on the rocks My ladies love me, how b**hing is that? I like to show off to my friends Although women are bad So when I'm feeling insecure about my lyrics and raps I just cure my insecurities securing with that [Bridge 2] When I'm in Seattle I'm feeling sort of important Then I fly down to New York And see how enormous the world is [Interlude] I'd like to make a song that makes the Earth a better place But I'm not a king, I guess I'd better wait [Hook 2X] I had to check my attitude to get I'm too high, egos too high I had to calm down Who's the cool guy now? I'm King Lear I'm King Lear A human being I'm King Lear [Outro] I'm not a God, I'm not a king I'm just a human being that's alive And I give thanks to the Almighty gravity That keeps the kingdom on the ground Cause it gets me when I come down I'm so high I need to open my eyes, I need to open my mind And so do you And so do you... I love more then word can be of the matter I love each breath...
