Don't die on me
I said-
Young black king don't die on me
You my brother, you my keeper, I need you to keep an eye on me
And no more fightin' on the streets
Walking' around with all this pride on me
Shit, shits tough for us already, know that you can still rely on me
Please, just stay alive for me
And my young black queens don't quit now
Yeah, you're the only ones that got us
I could never let my sis down
You've been too strong for too long, yet still you never sit down
Wow, that's the power of your lovin'
And that's worthy of a king's crown
And still you never let your kings down
Even though more time we don't deserve it
The picture isn't pretty but it's perfect
Tedious pressures so then I curve it
Serena or Venus the way I serve it
I'm Malorie Blackman the way I sell books
I jump on the stage and then the world looks
All that bangin' on my door had my girl shook
Like, "sorry officer I only sell hooks"
Leave me alone, every little end I took I held across the home
Live and you learn, they'll always hate me for my tone
For the shade of my skin and all the courage in my bones
Now I'm misunderstood now feelin' like Nina Simone
They way I tour the world would've thought that I was Simz
See her on stage, I know that women can be kings
I know that's ****ed, they're overlooking what you bring
I know shits so good, but it's just the little things
Black queen, you're immaculate
It's comin' out the world, they ain't ready for your magic yet
And that was never your fault, man I guess they couldn't hack it yet
World domination, and you ain't even takin' off your jacket yet
So effortlessly fabulous
And my young black kings I hope it pays off
Go and show 'em what you're made of
Try to scare us with some things that we are no longer afraid of
And you're superheroes, let me see you take off
I pray you never take your cape off
Even though more time we don't fly straight
But trust me bro, I promise we gon' die great
Our burdens are heavy but we ain't lightweight
Our parents were legends, they had to migrate
So that's the reason not to sit around and chat shit
I'm from the place where Michael Dapaah made a smash hit
Where you can be a rapper if you rap sick
Just scream one more flippin' time to be a black Brit
We so alive, whole world want our demise but now we ride
Try to push us all to the side, we know our rights
Now we get the whole of the pie, then go inside
When we see that American flag in the sky, just now it's aight
Way I top the charts, would've thought that I was Dave
I am young, black, beautiful and brave
I know that's ****ed, they overlooking what they gave us
I know that shits so good so we pray for better days
Pray they better than before
Young black king you are everything and more
I know one song's not enough to settle scores
But from the bottom of my heart, man I hope you're gettin' yours
Man I hope you're gettin' yours
Young black queen get your shine on
All I see is innovators and a bag of icons
You can go and ask the whole world where they got their style from
That's you, that's us, lost time and he never gets the time wrong
I guess we're just some ticking time bombs
I can make my world come true
All my dreams will see me through
And if that will get me down
My dreams will turn things all around
Put a smile upon my face
I can see a better place
Doesn't matter what will come my way
Believe me now, I will win some day
