Ransom
A King’s Ransom
[Intro]
“Look at all of us turn to our mighty king
He ruled the home, mind and streets
Never ever would he accept defeat
He took lost souls under his wing
Embracing all with the strength of a king
Those who knew him knew he was no fool
For he lived life by his own rules”

[Verse: Ransom]
Now they read my name like some kind of myth
‘Cause I’m cruel as a Julius Caesar and ruled with an iron fist
You try and diss, every jester get sent to the lion’s pit
‘Cause I am sick, I went to war with a dragon that fire spit
Am I the shit? Apparently, peasant, bow to your knees
How do you plead? Get found guilty, I disembowel your seed
How would you grieve if I rape your wife and vow that you bleed
It’s off with your head, then stake it for all you cowards to see
A king’s ransom, it’s pain to whoever brings me a traitor
I built the kingdom on the backs of all of you n***as’ labor
Killed the sabertooth with just my blade and boots, I’m the savior
Getting fed up, play the fruits, you hate the truth, I betrayed ya
I’m a tyrant, you would know if you try to battle him
Unravel him when this cold steel pierce to his abdomen
Then keep stabbing him with a sword long as a javelin
It’s so embarrassing, I’m a ruler with no comparisons
It’s ‘bout time that I feast and play with my wenches
I throw them off the bed when it’s time to lay with my empress
I got to flee the soldiers who told us stay by the entrance
Got a king’s hand, advisor, a wizard and my apprentice
Kind of senseless, I know that they all are plotting to kill me
Shit is foul, but heavy is the head that wears the crown
Fast forward, I’m on the ground, my son the heir to the throne holding me down
He gon’ regret it ‘cause every king gets behe-
[Outro]
“Tragedy struck when you least expect it
You may never know how our world was affected
King of kings to the day you died
And when he left, his subjects cried”
