Hook:
Got France in the room,
That's my identity,
for Cameroun,
That’s my identity,
D.M.V.,
That’s my identity
Now I live in them burbs,
That’s my identity
My Nigga I made it,
That’s my identity
Them Niggas just hate,
That’s your identity
My wife in her feelings,
That’s her identity too,
But she making us millions,
That’s her identity
And she raising a King,
That’s her identity
So ain't telling her shit,
That’s her identity
I extended my 20's,
That’s my identity
That's my identity
Verse 1:
B.K.S, dope beat veteran
I reinvented then I bet on myself
Most of them boys, just battling relevance
Came up in this thing,
I want to be humble
But we came from Kings
Came from Queens
Deep melanin
African Melodies
B.K.S. put felonies on beats
flow so venomous, venomous
Yeah God damn it I’m nice
Might be a rookie far as Rapping on the mic
15 years I’ve been rapping in my mind
BKS, peep the logo on the letterman
I Reinvented then I bet myself
Most of Them boys, just battling relevance
Da Fuck you mean
Them boys they ain’t fucking with me
I walk my city
I’m making my bands
I’m more like Diddy
But don’t do this for the bands
Hook:

Verse 2:
B.K.S, dope beat veteran
I reinvented then I bet on myself
Most of them boys, just battling relevance
I do it for the fam'
I doubled these deals
My doubt tryin' to get me
Can't lose my identity

Verse 1:
Ça prend plus de temps quand tu pars en bas de la pente.
ca d'mande plus d'efforts, chaque jour est un jour pour apprendre.
Chaque jour est une bénédiction en plus pour faire péter la
banque. Vider le coffre, s'péter une clope.
Embrasser ses gosses, embrasser sa maman.
Partager d'bons moments, avec sa bande.
Niquer les Opps, faire le job, entrain'd faire le gang.
Tous les jours rebelote.
Tous les jours rebelote, chaque jour on bosse
Le jeune négro devient tron-pa du bloc
Je suis parti a la conquète du globe
Pour ramener la médaille a mon club
Pour redonner de l'espoir à mon clan
J'ai mérité, chaque client.
Hiver comme été, j'suis jamais close
Pas b'soin des clés pour démarrer la gov'
Pas d'regard a droite, pas d'regard a gauche.
J'suis sur ma file, j'suis sur ma ro'
J'suis dans le banks, sur la FM
Comme NTM, ou Etienne Daho
Par la musique, j'fais des euros
Sur le terrain, j'mouille le maillot.
Et sur le ring, j'met des K.O.
Car la vie ne m'a pas fait de cadeaux

Hook:
Like the sun in the sky
like a prince and a crown
like the beat of my heart
You were made to be king
From my blood, to my soul
All my gold, and my throne
I will give you my all,
You were made to be king
When life get rough and wild , call on the allmighty.
No pride, get on your knees, Pray with me, pray with me.
Future's bright, you've been blessed,
I'm your shield 'til I rest,
Africa on your chest.
You were made to be king
Verse:
As a Pop I just wanna to protect him,
from every cop ever gonna select him.
Next president you gonna elect him,
My best blessing's a son a spectrum.
Now we coppin' fly shoes out in Neemen
and as a child you've been used to ear in every crowd
loosin and start screaming.
I was selling out arenas, then I found out that you had the IQ of a genius.
That's my lil' soldier, finally got prime exposure,
that's rock bottom right body's poses, but that smile is what got me sobber.
That glow bought me and you Mommy closer.
Restored my new faith in life in two parts
Record thru the day and night to do art.
and of course my A yo like blue hearts.
work and change like tragically as fame can't,
if I had it then it had to be a name brand.
Become an addict was no game plan,
when the gambling turned habit i'm rehabin' i'm the rain man
Judge slamme got but that was a reign man, thrown in a same cage than police thief
loans that i can't pay, back at least he was, born that day they released me. King
Hook:
Like the sun in the sky
like a prince and a crown
like the beat of my heart
You were made to be king
From my blood, to my soul
All my gold, and my throne
I will give you my all,
You were made to be king
When life get rough and wild , call on the allmighty.
No pride, get on your knees, Pray with me, pray with me.
Future's bright, you've been blessed,
I'm your shield 'til I rest,
Africa on your chest.
You were made to be king.
