KING 810 LYRICS

1. Heavy Lies The Crown

I'm back home motherfucker, give me my guns and my throne.
Tell the music pussies to leave me the fuck alone.
I go on the road, I come back, people I know have died.
If I was here I could have saved them, so this music's cost me lives.
But the devil's in my bone marrow, this's part of the deal.
I still don't know who I am, and I don't know how I feel.
In my head I've got a couple records in me, then I'm killed.
Like I'm Biggie, or I'm Amy, or I'm Janice if you will.
Where I'm from, you know I'm from Murder Town.
What we do, stab them up and gun them down.
When they fall, keep shooting to make sure their dead.
Where we hit them, in their hearts and in their heads.
17th chapter of St. Luke is written, the kingdom of God is within man,
Not one man nor a group of men, but all men.
In you, you the people have the power, the power to create.

2. Alpha & Omega

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the truth
God made me in his image who the fuck made you
You want my voice from me you can have it just know
I sound like this because the Devil has my throat

I make your insides shift that is my gift
The sea parts and then comes the flood
And men have died to make this you can't imitate shit
The talent I have I paid for in blood

I can tell you about things you'll die never having known
And I can take you places you could never ever go
And I've been there so just know that death comes slow
And life goes fast before you know it its through with your ass

Bitch I am the powers that be
I am Christ crucified on the T
I am the Alpha and the Omega
I'm the messiah, the gnashing of teeth
No one meets death until they see me
I am the Alpha and the Omega

So this is what you wanted
You wanna carry this curse
And have to cover your skin because the blowing wind hurts
You want your childhood taken from you
You wanna feel someones soul leave their body through their knife wounds

I make your insides shift that is my gift
The sea parts and then comes the flood
And men have died to make this you can't imitate shit
The talent I have I paid for in blood

Bitch I am the powers that be
I am Christ crucified on the T
I am the Alpha and the Omega
I'm the messiah, the gnashing of teeth
No one meets death until they see me
I am the Alpha and the Omega

Why they take the name that my mamma gave to me and they use it in vain
Why they don't look up when they speak to me like I'm not ten stories tall and they're weak to me

I am the powers that be
I am infinite; you're not shit, you're weak
I am the Alpha and the Omega
I'm the messiah, the gnashing of teeth
No one meets death until they see me
I am the Alpha and the Omega

3. Give My People Back

Devil take my hand,
Pen me out some words that will make them understand,
Understand what hell's like.
Devil use my voice,
Try an explain to them that I didn't have a choice,
It was my life or it's their life.
'Cause they have never had a knife in their skin, or a bullet hit them, or a friend die in the pen.
And they have never slept outside in the cold,
Lied, cheated and stole,
And begged for it to end.

When the wind blows, it hurts
And when they touch me, it's worse.
Tell me what's this all worth?

'Cause Hell is hot, and I'm not fit for life on earth.
Go to Hell and I tell 'em give my people back.
Devil man this I ask you give my people back.
All I've done wasn't fun, I think you owe me that.
March through Hell and I came to take my people back.
Give 'em back now.
Woman take your hands,
Press them both together and pray to the man.
Pray for his forgiveness.
You can't help who you love.
Ask that when you go that he lets you up above.
So that he don't punish both of us.
'Cause you have never put a gun on a man.
Squeezed as many times as you can, until it locks up and jams.
And you have never been to Hell and made a deal.
Seen that he was real and been a part of his plan.

When the wind blows, it hurts.
And when they touch me, it's worse.
Tell me, what's this all worth?

'Cause Hell is hot, and I'm not fit for life on earth.
Go to Hell and I tell 'em give my people back.
Devil man this I ask you give my people back.
All I've done wasn't fun, I think you owe me that.
March through Hell and I came to take my people back.
Go to Hell and I tell 'em give my people back.

Devil man this I ask you give my people back.
All I've done wasn't fun, I think you owe me that.
March through Hell and I came to take my people back.
Give 'em back now.
Give 'em back now.

All my brothers doing years off in prison.
Or those who spend their lives in the system.
(Give 'em back now.)
Those wishing they had a life worth living.
Or those who are enslaved by religion.
(Give 'em back now.)
All the children who were born without a chance.
I'm one of you for everything it's worth.
(Give 'em back now.)
Who sit in silence 'cause the faintest sound hurts.

'Cause hell is hot, and I'm not fit for life on earth.
Go to Hell and I tell 'em give my people back.
Devil man this I ask you give my people back.
All I've done wasn't fun, I think you owe me that.
March through Hell and I came to take my people back.
Go to Hell and I tell 'em give my people back.

Devil man this I ask you give my people back.
All I've done wasn't fun, I think you owe me that.
March through Hell and I came to take my people back.
Give 'em back now.
Give 'em back now.
We fight and we don't back down.

5. Black Swan

I wake up and put my gun on
Think about my loved ones
Wonder how it got like this
I should be writing love songs
Should be having children
Instead I'm writing letters to the victims kids and they say

"I'm sorry for your loss but I too am a dead man
And you can try to kill me it won't do a damn thing
I'll live forever through these words they keep on dancing"

1 and 2 and pirouette
2 and 3 and assemble
1 and 2 and battery
Pirouette

I wake up and put your song on
Can't believe that you're gone
Understand that I did this
Because it's handguns and it's heroin
And all of us will die young
So I'm writing letters to the victims kids and they say

Tonight we dance because tomorrow isn't promised and we never had a chance…

8. I Ain't Going Back Again

I aint goin back again to that state of mind where I was ignorant and it was war time
And I thought I could save all of us if I wrote one line ya know the right line
And gettin by wasn't gettin by we had to steal and lie and some of us died
We were on borrowed time and the clock was tickin and they're lookin at me and the move was mine

Fuck it just tellem the truth
Tellem no man can take nothin from you
Tellem your skin is too thick and you'll die about this
They don't possess the spirit you do
Tellem your city is countin on you
If you go home with nothin they'll probably kill you
And this ain't life or death for them
Close your eyes and count to ten

Honestly this is as honest as I've been
So I'll try speaking to the public like we're friends
Truthfully I wish the very best for men
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
I aint goin back again [x3]
But you think freedom is money well money has an end

I aint goin back again to that dope house where we slept together cuz it was cold out
We had one jacket amongst all of us so we would take turns when we would go out
And the open oven heated the whole house and the mattress on the kitchen floor
With an AK 47 and 3 hand guns but we swore we needed more
Cuz we were at war
Where wed haul water by the bucket back to our home
And wed heat the water and wed talk for hours cuz we didn't have no phones
And wed dream together about a better life and houses and cars and clothes
And wed laugh and joke as we all showered from the same pan on the stove

Fuck it just tellem the truth
Tellem no man can take nothin from you
Tellem your skin is too thick and you'll die about this
They don't possess the spirit you do
After all the shit we've been through
Id kill myself before I turn on you
And this ain't life or death for them
Close your eyes and count to ten

Honestly this is as honest as I've been
So I'll try speaking to the public like we're friends
Truthfully I wish the very best for men
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
I aint goin back again [x3]
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
I aint goin back again

I aint goin back again to the time we thought that a record deal could save us
Where we were unapproachable and desperate and we were dangerous
Where our city would love us and think highly of us not hate us
Cuz it didn't change a thing
I'm still David
I'm still KING

Honestly this is as honest as I've been
So I'll try speaking to the public like we're friends
Truthfully I wish the very best for men
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
I aint goin back again [x3]
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
I aint goin back again

10. Life's Not Enough

I've seen the Eiffel out in Paris
I've seen whats left of the wall in Berlin
I've seen Cusco, Giza, Serengeti
Cant say I care to go again
I've seen many of natures wonders
I've seen it rain I've seen it flood
I've helped a starving man a sick man some children
It didn't move me like they say it does

Life's not enough

I've went 200 on a motorbike
I've jumped out of a moving plane
I've lI'ved poor and I've lI'ved well and I've lI'ved in jail
All of it felt about the same

I've had more than 1 woman
I've had more than 2 or 3
I've stood in front of 15000 and sang my songs
It really didn't do nothing to me

Life's not enough

I've been shot by another person
I've shot back and didn't blink
I've seen phenomena miracles small and large
It didn't really move me like you'd think

I've seen a child be born
I've seen a fortune be made
I've seen the Devil I mean the real God he is in me
But that don't really make me wanna stay

Life's not enough
