james francis king - phoenix

I'm the big bad wolf
Watch me howl at the moon
How the concrete still allow this flower to bloom?
Tell me if we all rise up, where's their power to rule?
The chants drown 'em out when they denounce how we move
You tripping if you think I ain't dope
Watch me pull up to your function in a 90s raincoat
We weren't in the same boat generations ago
But if we stand together now
We are the change, here we go
Scared of being stuck, that's why I am
Still a kid with big dreams, not a man with a plan
Solo on six strings, not a part of a band
But always way too stubborn to accept a helping hand
Aware of where I come up short
Watch me grab this rebound and push the ball up court
Not in a different league, we play a different sport
Watch me say some wild shit that I couldn't afford
Tear us down, watch us rise now (Phoenix)
Tear us down, watch us fight now (Phoenix)
Tear us down, watch us rise now (Phoenix)
Tear us down, watch us fight now (Phoenix)
I'm the great white shark
Watch me hunt you rappers down
I know you hurt, motherfucker, smell the blood from miles out
They were shook when they saw the quiet kid wild out
Your career, fourth quarter, begging for a timeout
You tripping if you think I ain't slick
Win big and then I'm out, Michael Jordan, game six
One last haul and then I dip
Sike, that's cap, iceberg, just the tip
You care too much 'bout who people love
Claim it's God, I just see Him shrug
How you so fragile but act so tough?
This really the battle you focus on?
Shit, that's a waste, my friend
We're moving forward, that's the past that you chase, my friend
You looking real dumb, egg on your face, my friend
How's it taste, my friend?
Hope you change, my friend
Tear us down, watch us rise now (Phoenix)
Tear us down, watch us fight now (Phoenix)
Tear us down, watch us rise now (Phoenix)
Tear us down, watch us fight now (Phoenix)
