KING

CATEGORY

life

Views: 169

They think they know, but they have no idea

what its like to be king on foreign land

see in my native country I was the most wanted and hated man

over here, I was damn near perfect

grasped by every hand and stared at with every eye

clothes and panties dropped all because of my looks

see it shook me on my first encounter until I lost count of everytime it happened

walk down the street and they quick to join you

get a hotel room and they quick to serve you

see I felt like a king, but it wasnt only me

he was a king, that brotha was a king

even the fat black one was a king

damn, this is what life had to offer

I took everything it gave me

money, fame, photo ops, drunken tales in drunken spots

waking up with a smile and a hangover

see the myth was that we are hung over

and for the most part its precise

but if overseas taught me one thing

its that being black....is pretty nice
