For they, is the kingdome and the power, and the glory

Forever...



The King's a ruler, the ruler rules (x4)



[Run]

I'm the epitome of royalty, you versus me, it's a joke

I'm a rage, amazing blaze, you cigarette smoke

Your video's number one and that was part of my plan

Went from Rock Box to a whole countdown jam

Took rock music, switched and flipped and made it raw

Anyway you've played it, we've played it before in '84

Every show, a hundred thousand people or more

Famous still give us tours, and we be tryin' not to take em' all

I bake em' all quicker than Sara Lee, come battle me

Imagine that, what a sight that'll be

Front page of the times, I can read the headlines now

Rev Run beat clown down, when tryin' to take his crown



The King's a ruler, the ruler rules (x4)



I'm the reason you started rhyming

I'm the reason rap sales started climbing

That's why I'm still headlining

I'm the King and before I leave your ass gonna learn

Yeah, y'all each wanna burn, wait your turn

Run, I'm a living legend, my suggestion is learn your lesson

I'll leave you stressing, confessing and begging for a blessing

And whatever your impression..it better be,

that we the top pedigree bringing y'all energy since '83

I run this here since way back when

I picked up a pair of adidas, and make y'all wear em' again

If you thought it, I done did it, heard it, I done spit it

New cats wanna pay their respect, son I'm with it

But if not, I'm a reclaim the top of the charts

Doin' shows with dough flows frip 'em apart

Other than that, I'll just be holding my own

Crown royalty up on a throne, for real
