Thi'sl - Rooks lyrics

rate me

Are we kings or gods?

Are we pawns or we kings?

Are we perfect or we flawed?

Are we humans or we beings?

Is this even or its odd?

Do you kill or you rob?

Are you Bill or you Jobs?

So you think so you are.

See the king, the executive desk is where he sit.

In the hoods in the place where we rest thats where he spit.

And the trash and the crap from his table is what we get.

Give us Cain and guns to kill Able so we bit, that apple that he sells us.

I watched my brother work to do something better and I can tell us by nature we rebellious.

Was taught by the king to watch are Martins die along with our Mahalas. Without even a song that we can sing along but swear that we kings on a throne.

We yelling that we kings in each and every song to masters that the record labels on... Rooks.

We sacrifice our queens for these reality shows, they get a check but the whole world see that they broke.

We think we kings cause we get that bricks or that blow but the king ain't even the one wrapping the ship and the dough.

We think we kings on this corner with our little marijuana.

Skipping across the board to be slinged, knocked over.

We pawns so we fall in this game, October.

The king sits and watch us all die and stepover.

You think I'm lying, take a look.

How we gonna be kings, we ain't rooks.

In hip-hop the kings are the jews, the labels gives us jewels standing off we being fools.

Pharaoh died with his gold but we borrow ours.

I met a king that give life but we borrow ours.

Pharaoh died with his gold but we borrow ours.

I met a king that give life but we borrow ours.....Rooks.

SPRKT:

Do you know who you are?

If I took it all away.

On the throne in your heart.

Well, you could die today.

Fast-life living, swerving on the road, crash life dead end, don't know where to go.

Still got money and ballin, 'til you lose it all and you crawling.

But I'm ballin, I can't leave this life cause its callin.

Every king of life then fallin, Jesus Christ is sovereign.

Alright, how we gonna be kings? we ain't rooks.

How we gonna be kings? we ain't rooks.

How we gonna be kings? we ain't rooks.

How we gonna be kings? we ain't rooks.
