Columbus Kings
[Intro]
Yeah, what up, Columbus? Columbus, Ohio, born and raised, there’s no place like home, ya know what I’m saying? It’s Illogic, Weightless, homie Ill2lectual The Sound Cultivator on the beat, it’s like this, check it out, yo
[Verse 1]
Serious magician with
Lyric scripts and an affinity for spinach dip
Smoking squares, freaking blacks and puffin’ beadies
Packing bowls on occasion for some release
Making sure my kids’ homework is in on time
Putting in work to keep my wife satisfied
Every day I wake up to a daily grind
Writing books and poems, dropping these songs of mine
Watching crazy Japanese films on Netflix
Vibing out to mad skills tongues of the next ish
Wondering why [?] never made an album
And if he did I’m searching torrents just so I can find it
Everybody got a purpose, you just gotta find it
Life’s a one-way ticket so you can’t rewind it
Every day’s another we’re blessed to push play
So no regrets, just learn from every mistake
And watch the ground shake like
[Chorus]
Another song written, another day’s gone
Another line bitten while the world sings along
Life has a rhythm, catch it or move on
Who would rather be a king than a pawn? (Hands up!)
Another song written, another day’s gone
Another line bitten while the world sings along
Life has a rhythm, catch it or move on
Who would rather be a king than a pawn? (Put your hands in the air like that)
Who would rather be a king than a pawn?
Would you rather be a king than a pawn?
Columbus Kings (x4)
[Verse 2]
Rolling ‘round Columbus, bumping “Moonlight”
Jon Rogers and Renee Dion providing my soundtrack
Friend texting me about these crazy fans
I’m taking in the city ‘cause the vibe’s right
I never been the type to follow trends
I march to my own drum, unpredictable like seasons
Every Thursday hoping to make it to the nest
Shouts to JG the Juggernaut and Voice of Reason
It’s a beautiful day, the sun’s beaming through my windows
Thinking of Skelly’s burgers no doubt
And every other month, rain, sleet or snow
I’m checking my man Zero Star at Buggin’ Out
King [?] gave me flowers before I left
While playing 2K, I heard Fly U
Hit up [?] for tickets to the next spittin’ sketch
In Columbus, man, there’s so much to do
Word
[Chorus]
Another song written, another day’s gone
Another line bitten while the world sings along
Life has a rhythm, catch it or move on
Who would rather be a king than a pawn? (Hands up!)
Another song written, another day’s gone
Another line bitten while the world sings along
Life has a rhythm, catch it or move on
Who would rather be a king than a pawn? (Put your hands in the air like that)
Who would rather be a king than a pawn?
Would you rather be a king than a pawn?
