 Here to stay
Even when I'm gone
When I close my eyes
Through the passage of time
Kings never die

I can hear the drummer drumming
And the trumpets, someone's tryna summon someone, I know something's coming
But I'm running from it to be standing at the summit

And plummet, how come it wasn't what I thought it was
Was it, too good to be true?

Have nothing, get it all but too much of it
Then lose it again, did I swallow hallucinogens
Cause if not, where the hell did it go?

Cause here I sit in Lucifer's den by the dutch oven
Just choosing to sin
Even if it means I'm selling my soul, just to be the undisputed again

Do whatever I gotta Do just to win
Cause I got this motherfucking cloud over my head

Crown around it, thorns on it
Cracks in it, bet you morons didn't

Think I'd be back, did ya?
How 'bout that I'm somehow now back to the underdog
But no matter how loud that I bark,

this sport is something I never bow-wow'd
I complain about the game, I shout and I pout, it's a love-hate
But I found out that I can move a mountain of doubt
Even when you bitches are counting me out,

and I appear to be downforthecount
Only time I ever been out and about is

driving around town with my fucking whereabouts in a doubt
Cause I been lost tryna think of

what I did to get here but I'm not a quitter
Gotta get up, give it all I got or give up
Spit on, shit on, stepped on, but kept going

I'm tryna be headstrong but it feels like I slept on my neck wrong
Cause you're moving onto the next, but is the respect gonE?

Cause someone told me that
(Kings never die)

Don't give me that sob story liar, don't preach to the choir
You ain't never even had to reach in the fire to dig deep
Nobody ever handed me shit in life, not even a flyer

Wouldn't even take shit into consideration
Obliterate anyone in the way

I think I see why a lot of rappers get on these
features and try to show out on a track with me
But it'd actually have to be a fucking blowout to get me to retire
Tell these new artists that kings never die

I know shit has changed in this age, fuck a Twitter page
Did it just say I've been upstaged?

Why  I online? It's driving me crazy
I'm riding shotgun tryna get a gauge

Almost hot, but I'm not gonna' conform
With a stage pass and this shit

And opinions sway, I can hear them say
If I stay passionate maybe I can stay Jay miraculous
Comeback as if I went away

But detractors just say so much for the Renegade
Someone's gonna make me blow my composure
Here I Go again, center stage and I feel like I'm in a cage

Some want a champion to fall
I still wonder why I laugh at 'em,

cause why care when I'm awesome?

Fuck what these cynics say
Just goes to show that when my back's against the wall
And I'm under attack again, that I'll act as if I'm posted up
With this pent up rage, cause all these plaques in my office

On the floor stacked against the door
Are they just metaphors for the odds of when you comin' back again?
Cause all the accomplishments, accolades, awards
And trophies just don't mean jack anymore

If I'm here today and gone tomorrow

And I'm not gonna be

 Here to stay
Even when I'm gone
When I close my eyes
Through the passage of time
Kings never die

I want it, I'm coming to get it

So you son of a bitches don't duck you're gonna get Riddick Bowe'd
Critics'll end up in critical, 

think your shit is dope all you're gonna get is smoked then
And I'm not stopping until I'm top again, all alone and on a throne
Like a token of respect, or a homage poem, or an ode I've been owed

Tossed in the air by my own arm,

and launched so hard I broke mycollarbone

And when it's my time to go, I'm still not leaving

Stop for no one, I don't know but I've been told an obstacle that

Blocks your road, knock it over,

time to Go for that pot of gold, cause

They say kings never die

Just ask Jam Master Jay

They just grow wings and they fly

So, hands up, reach for the sky

Try to hold up and prolong these moments

Cause in a blink of an eye

They'll be over

Tryna secure your legacy like Shakur

And ensure that nobody's ever gonna be what you were

So before you're leaving this Earth

You want people to feel the fury of a pure evil cerebral berserk

Deacon of words, syllable genius at work

Plus I'm thinking that they're mistaking my kindness for weakness,

distill it with meanness

I went from powdered milk to Purina

To flipping burgers on the grill for some peanuts

From Gilbert's to arenas, call me Gilbert Arenas,

still appeal tothedreamers

I made it to the silverscreen where Rocky's still what the theme is

Khalil on the beat cause making

the beat ain't the same feeling to me as killing the beat is

So fulfilling to me is what filling a seat is

That sound, vomit, thirst and how common underground commons eat

Outsider stomach growl, throbbing hunger

Out-rhyming everyone, God just give me one shot

I swear that I won't let you down

I'mma be around forever, entertain even in the ground

You ain't never gonna hear me say I ain't
