Black Panther lyrics - kendrick lamar

 (from "Black Panther" soundtrack)

(Why I go easy?)

(Know why I go easy)

Wait

King of my city, king of my country, king of my homeland

King of the filthy, king of the fallen, we livin' again

King of the shooters, looters, boosters, and ghettos poppin'

King of the past, present, future, my ancestors watchin'

King of the culture, king of the soldiers, king of the bloodshed

King of the wisdom, king of the ocean, king of the respect

King of the optimistics and dreamers that go and get it

King of the winner's district and geniuses with conviction

King of the fighters, king of the fathers, king of the belated

King of the answer, king of the problem, king of the forsaken

King of the empathy, your resentment, king of remorse

King of my enemies, may they fall defeat, I rejoice

King of the skyscrapers, dodgin' haters, broke religion

Nine faces, go against 'em, I erased 'em with precision

I embrace them with collision, kings did it

King's vision, Black Panther, King Kendrick, all hail the king!

I dropped a million tears

I know several responsibilities put me here

I don't pedal backwards, but I live old-fashioned

The lens that I'm lookin' through

Won't prescribe me the right glasses, masses are now free

Ashes I'm dumpin' out, 'bout to spread all 'cross seas

Sisters and brothers in unison, not because of me

Because we don't glue with the opposition, we glue with peace

But still'd fuck up your organization if any beef

What do you stand for?

Are you a activist? What are your city plans for?

Are you a accident? Are you just in the way?

Your native tongue contradictin' what your body language say

Are you a king or you jokin'? Are you a king or you posin'?

Are you a king or you smokin' bowl rocks to keep you open?

Because the king don't cry, king don't die

King don't lie, king give all, king get by, king don't fall

Kingdom come, when I come, you know why

(King, king, king, king)

I am T'Challa!
