[Intro: MC Lyte]
Yeah
This is dedicated to all the kings and all the soon-to-be kings
We're counting on you
We love you
This is for you
You and you and you
Almighty king
He's a king, king
Go 'head and king him now
Yeah
You got it

[Verse: MC Lyte]
I see you here doing your thing, king
You love that girl, bought her a ring, king
Love's never just a rinky-dink thing
Proud of you, got the bling-bling for the queen
Fam's happy and they just wanna sing, sing
You ready to spend your whole ching-ching
Your whole check, nothing less to be given
Years later, you've risen
To elevate your position
You a groom now and your homies can't believe it
You was out there, feverish and lovin' leeches
But you always left your heart open for the teaching
Learning 'bout what it takes to make it through the season
Make the best choices for your fam, man
So excited that you took her hand, man
And waited for love to do his thing, king
Got the woman of your dreams on your team, let's go, king
