Take The Throne Lyrics

It's not the fate that I envisioned

Tell me God, who is it

That makes the decisions

Right now my friends all have a couple children

Playing In the yard or in the garden

Pretend in pavilions

Best believe that's how I planned it out

If fate really had a problem

We could hash it out

It's not that I have a lot

That I can Bitch about

But damn

I thought I had a couple more years to get it Figured out

I mean how you really run a kingdom?

How the fuck did my life go Bambi

To Simba

Life was never picket fences

Fuck a gingham

But best believe there isn't one time

I would play the victim

I'm just trynna leave a good impression

Have this talent that's in my possession

But first just to fight the oppression

And these other niggas

Who talk about my people

Just like an obsession

You know if you just be yourself

You could have a couple million

All under ya spell

Yeah your name could ring a couple bells

Long as you remember

That your soul

It ain't up to sell

So don't ever put a price tag

Don't stay in your bag

When you could be getting bags

Yeah you got it in the bag

You could be riches from rags

Royalty is in your blood

Even if you do it stag boy

You know that

And what about the fucking haters

Mistakes of my past

And there could be some traitors

But do I let em spotlight all my flaws

And just damage my whole cause

Or just run and grab erasers

I'd never claim that I was perfect

And even in my brightest

Wonder if I'm worth it

So many that would line up for the throne

But I know

I'm the only one in line

Who won't confirm it

I just don't think I'm ready yet

I know I'm here

From family yes I am in debt

But why I have to fight through all these people

That depending who I love

And on my skin

Will show respect

I mean shit just gets me hella tight

I never saw a bait I never got to bite

Hear em screaming like

As long as you have good intentions

It won't matter what they spew

Up in your twitter mentions

You know you're headed in the right direction

And your past

Your shadows, how they linger

Just know That's your pension

I can't promise all will follow suite

Yeah there might be a couple haters though who may follow you

But you know that your moving on

Growing strong

You can't let the darkness win

And just swallow you

Let you heart shine boy

And I'm supposed to be a martyr

Knowing I could line some people up to slaughter

Knowing one mistake

And I could get them bothered

That I have to ride the wave of fate

Through Hell or high water

No That isn't how I want it

I'm not the type of dude

To talk and walk and flaunt it

I'm trynna keep it humble

Cuz I know if I get cocky

Hell Yeah I'd feed off it

Restaurant it

I don't think that you understand

I'm just a plain old nigga

I won't get a fan

So how will I take a stand

When I know that by their definition

I am not a man

I'm tired of feeling fucking helpless

I'm tired of putting work in

To be told I'm selfish

I'm tired of being told I'm desperate

When I come through

Trynna work with niggas

I have bested

Listen like I've said before

You've been fighting ages

And you've seen the score

Now it's you time

Now you take the floor

You've been hiding all your talents

And look I implore

That you finally look at the light

You don't need an army

Cuz you are a knight

The way you fight your battles

You know that you gonna keep

All your foes affright

And you will no might

And you know you gotta love you

You gotta love your past

Cause that's all you

And I know t ex he darkness calls you

But long as you keep faith

There's nothing to befall you

Remember things instilled in you

Remember that you're building you

Remember things fulfilling you

And it won't matter

Why these people grillin you

Just take the throne

I will... I promise

I love you Dad
