King Lyrics by Joey Casey

Melodic Fortune

2022

[Intro]
Look, look
It's Saca, okay
Look, look, look

[Hook]
Lookin’ far up in the sky, try'na go to what I see
I'm workin’ hard, day and night, try'na catch up to dreams
I put it all on the line 'cause I gotta be a king
Man I gotta be
I put it all on my life that I gotta be a king
Man I gotta be, man I gotta be

[Verse 1]
Man I gotta be a regal commodity
I'm on that midnight grind because I want a lot of things
Once I took off in this path there was no stoppin' me
But I'm feelin' like I gotta hit the lottery
Haters treat me like a villain, an atrocity
Actin' like heroes but they filled with animosity
I don’t hear ’em, barely see 'em, I ain’t askin' though
Filled with ambitions, in addition I'm never fractional
I do it big like a king, swear that's factual
They say I’m caught up in my dreams but that's irrational
Way too much drive but I ain't crashin' this ride
Can't be livin' couch to couch where am I crashin' tonight, look

[Hook]
Lookin' far up in the sky, try'na go to what I see
I'm workin' hard, day and night, try'na catch up to dreams
I put it all on the line 'cause I gotta be a king
Man I gotta be, man I gotta be
I put it all on my life that I gotta be a king
Man I gotta be, man I gotta be

[Verse 2]
Man I gotta be, I gotta do it right
Damn the path that I'm on, it's do or die
Wearin' all my chains, I'll never wear a suit and tie
And I'ma wear 'em out, where I'm at, they lose they mind
Used to be an underdog but that story came and went
Now I got no more excuses, gotta pave my lane and win
Couldn't afford the rent, I'm movin' on and on again
Live like a peasant but a king's what I invision
Said I am the first born of my kind, you couldn't write my story
Money makin's mandatory but I only write for glory
Full Volume at Midnight, now I'm on to number four
But the work is never over, I'll be comin' back for more, look

[Hook]
Lookin' far up in the sky, try'na go to what I see
I'm workin' hard, day and night, try'na catch up to dreams
I put it all on the line 'cause I gotta be a king
Man I gotta be, man I gotta be
I put it all on my life that I gotta be a king
Man I gotta be, man I gotta be

[Outro]
I wanna live like a king
I, I wanna catch up to my dreams
I, I'll be the best you ever see
I put it on the line, now I'm all in on my dreams, look
