K.I.N.G. - (Knowledge Is Never Granted) (Dejazz, Silex, Marley)

Dejazz
My kingly character causes a natural phenom/ The strings we attached to vibrate the kings of Leone/ Before the first name add the don like Corleone/ Matriarchal system at home/ Ambiant reflect the neon/ I deliver crown jewels direct from Sierra Leone/ 93 when I was born/ I'll rock the microphone to infinity and beyond/ Making music that's timeless/ It will last for eons/ Karl Kani waterproof fabric the colour dijon/ Walking through Alexis-Nihon/ In fashion/ Heading to class and looking for a queen willing to link with/ A ghetto youth like Jasmin/ All my life I felt a pain that can't be relieved by Aspirin/ Clothes matching my mind state/ Timberlands on my feet make my attire complete/ I'm straight hip-hop/ My art-work reflects reality/ I keep those who know loyalty close to me/ Servin' Haile Selassie I/ The divine king/ Adorn us with royalty/ Like King David, blessing me with this poetry/ My dynastic link with JAH is not symbolized by a rosary, it gets deep/ Like the vision Joseph had of stars bowing before his feet/ My brother said ''looking good is not cheap''/ Well to be a king there is an expense/ Lead by influence/ Christ made the greatest sacrifice when they nailed him to the crucifix/ In North America where the Ten Lost Tribes mix/ In the melting pot, modern monarchs/ Representing god/ The lord said “go forth and subdue the Earth”/ So I maintain the Scarface motto ''the world is yours'', yes sir!

Chorus

I'm a K.I.N.G./ You know it's loyalty before royalty for K.I.N.G./ I stay humble cause I'm here to save another I'm a K.I.N.G./ You can tell by the way I look and act that I'm a monarch I'm a K.I.N.G./ And I live by the code ''death before dishonor''/

Silex
Red strong cedar, true power of a leader/ Tie the links and bring his folks/ In the right direction like he's a future reader (reads the future)/ Solidifies a nation through the speakers, solutions seeker/ And he who digs deep finds treasures/ Ideas expressed by words and gestures/ A king is surrounded by dream achievers/ Caught in a long lasting fever/ His optimism is contagious/ His mind is in link with his heart/ Plus he sees far like a visionary/ Sight goes past the struggle/ Insure all is provided with substantial needs/ Every voice is heard, nobody's hurt/ Positive change occurs finally/ I quote Mandela (listen), "It always seems impossible until it's done"/ Now a chief can help you foresee success in the long run/

Marley
Once only wise, he was once young and clumsy/ His locals yodelled in their vocals he was once a dummy/ Walking through the forest, barking up the wrong trees/ He fell and stumbled constantly/ Standing was something he thought he could never achieve/ Time was depressing practice/ Wearing out his knees/ And the day came where the pain drifted away/ And he can walk like a king, talk like a king/ Not taking any orders/Learning from the elders/ Setting up shelter/ Maneuvering his skill, left and right/ For forward peaceful nights/ For the youngest, plunging his hand in the dirt/ Playin' in the dirt/ Worse than the rumors of a peasant/ While making it pleasant for those/ Who live in his houses and walk on his roads/ Setting an example for everyone to sample/ That a king doesn't need a crown to rule but a consciousness/

Chorus
