The Crown

Kyle Alston

You say youre a kingBut you act like a pauper

Far from close to being properAnd you say youve done no wrong?Well somebody mustve framed you Rabbit, Mr. RogerWhat have you done to help your loyal subjects?When young ladies interact with you,Are you showing them the kind of man they should want to be with?When young dudes come to you for helpAre you helping them to become better men?Are you talkin good sense or nonsenseLate night, David Letterman

Before you crowned yourselfHave you even served your community?Have you done anything to promote justice and unity?Or have you just rambled on and on about nothingWhile you persuade blank minds to simply Tune in to me?You think youre the best thing smokinBut in reality in your air people are chokinBut they dont say a single word because for some strange reasonIn you they are hopinMakes me wanna pukeWhen your true colors are revealed

Despite you suggesting that what youve done is realI wont even have to say, Youre a flukeThen from your high place Ill see you fall without a parachute

Now Ill tell you who the crown belongs toHes the One whoMade sure the people He touched were not destituteHe turned water into wine and fed thousands at one timeBelieve me its the truthHe healed the sick, made a blind man seeSpoke to the seas

And told them to be stillWhen it seemed like doom and oncoming calamityHe raised the dead andLater He died and once again God raised the deadAnd He gives true peaceTo those dealing with insanityCan you please understand me?All power was given unto Him in heaven and in Earth

You think based on what youve donePeople will still remember you for a long timeOnce youre six feet in the dirt?

Man you're a rookie not a veteran

You doin things that will make you loseBut you make it known to all you were bred to winYou say you're goin outWell thenI guess Ima have to go inGotta look at my futureAnd yea it's brightSo yea I'm sneak peakinI just thank God for the visionMan you need a plan without holesI see yours is leakin

See the problem isYou're chasin benjaminsWhen it is the WordYou should be takin' inToo bad you so stuck on televisionYou can't even focus enoughTo see what you've been missin', listen

So unless you're in ChristTake off your crownCuz the one you got on

Is counterfeitNow i see your haughty smileTurn into a frown a bitYou just mad because the truth hurtsNow you wanna go hamAnd then go berserkDo you even know its worth?While you sittin there sippin purp ----Don't even speak to meIma teach you to talk rightThen charge you a learner's fee.

Show you how its supposed to beMan you gotta know it costs to live godlyPersecuted and misunderstood for living for Christ cant you see?Song of my life while they play the keysBut its alright thoughIm living for Christ and not those pesos.Not livin for the world yea I say so.But go ahead and get at me though.

Please receive Christ todayBecause its not about the YOLO.

Right from the start Jesus has been the true KingSo man take that crown off your flesh

Lest you continue in your foolish waysAnd get stung by life, bee stingAnd sure for a time you may be beastingBut the real glory and crown will forever be on Christ,The Real Thing.
