King Thing Lyrics by DMX

Never Die Alone Soundtrack

2004

AUWW
GGRRRRRRRRR
Uh
You know
(dmx barking)
Ain't about being a motherfucking pimp (uh)
Ain't about being a hustler (naah)
Player (naah)
Fiend (naah)
It's about being a motherfucking king (aight)
Ya mean ?

(Verse)
Baby it's a king thing (yeah)
From Kayto to David (uh)
Two kings in the streets neither one made it
Think about shedding a tear, nigga save it
Dirty motherfucking games, both niggas played it (come on)
David went on some bullshit, went full throttle
Smacked shorty in the face with the glass bottle
Killing bitches with battery acid (yeah)
That's the type of shit this nigga mastered
David was a bastard
Step out the stunts with the slow walkin
Glide by leave you straight no talkin
It's about where ever I'm at, knowing I got them (aight)
By the time a nigga thought about reaching I shot 'em
See it takes a snake to spot a snake
And by the time they spot the snake
I shot the snake
I got to take, whatever I can get my hands on
Fuck you niggas is what I'ma stand on

It's a king thing, what goes around comes back around
It's a king thing, every part of town knows why your down
It's a king thing, got these new cats commin' up in the game
It's a king thing, and I'ma make sure niggas remember my name
For real

(Verse)
It ain't about talkin' the talk
It's walkin' the walk
How many cats you done crossed from L.A. to New York
And regardless for what when ever you hit town
You got real niggas respecting on how you get down
Ain't no motherfucking thing changed
I'm still the grimiest nigga up in this game
What's my name
King D-A-V-I-D
I'm like a bloodhound
Cuz it ain't nothin' but money hidin' from me
And ain't nobody ridin' for free, fuck that
Excuse my back nigga, what black
I go at niggas hard for a little bit of bread
A couple of hundred dollars will get your ass dead
I'm not petty I stay hungry
And as long as shit is the way it is, then shit gone stay ugly
Bitch, so bring home the drama
Shit as many niggas I done crossed, I gotsta sleep with the armor

It's a king thing, what goes around comes back around
It's a king thing, every part of town knows why your down (uh)
It's a king thing, got these new cats commin' up in the game
It's a king thing, and I'ma make sure niggas remember my name
For real

(Verse)
I'm one of those disrespectful, grimey fucked up
Ol' cruddy type niggas, get money type niggas
Leave you bloody type niggas
That's what I'm on
And I'ma swing that thing til them shells are gone
Right or wrong, bring on the storm
Motherfuck you bitch, you know who you fucking with
K-I-N-G D-A-V-I-D
Won't another nigga ever walk the streets like me
I make all things possible with the 4-5th
In the streets to where you sleep, it's a small rift
And I ain't got no gift but busting my gun
And it's short lived cause I'm gonna bust til I'm done
And when I'm done, run up on you with the butt of the gun
Split your motherfucking head open, fuck it, I won
I am the son of no man, bitch
And my momma wasn't shit either, but I'm still a king like Conan

But I'ma make sure niggas remember my name
For Real

It's a king thing (yeah), what goes around comes back around
It's a king thing, every part of town knows why your down (uh)
It's a king thing, got these new cats commin' up in the game
It's a king thing, and I'ma make sure niggas remember my name
For real
