UZUAZO
Under the Layers
[INTRO]

King king king king king
Yeah yeah

[VERSE 1]

I heard they talking world domination
I’m talking straight up destruction, humble your ego
It’s freezing wherever he go
Colder than subzero
Villains but no heroes
I gotta remind you n***as
I’m running everywhere but behind you n***as
You got it twisted, thinking i’m rarely lifted
I’m gifted
Maybe it started off back when they would mention my pigment
He’s different
Or back when me and my n***as would go ignant
Smoke, drinking, party then more linking
When did I start with the doubting and overthinking?
When did I start plugging holes, the ship sinking?
Why did I feel like I needed you?
Things that I shouldn’t do
Lessons already learned, repeated mistakes
Identifying the fakes
What’s even real?
Questions I been asking myself
I couldn’t deal
I guess it’s under the layers, I wouldn’t peel

[VERSE 2]

He started from the basement
Buckets and rags, mopping the floors, opening doors
Constantly searching for more
They looked down on him
He was so destined to soar, destined to roar
A lion just look at my mane
They wanted me tame
Some shit I been through could drive you insane
I stuck to my lane
I’ll never complain
And I’m so sincere don’t think that I’m playing
Listen take the numbers and acclaim and toss em in flame
N***as think the money and the fame gon' treat em the same
I was down bad on my luck
I’m not giving up
Now I’m back up and I’m stuck there’s no letting up
Remember times I used to question rhymes
Is that enough?
But now I never question mines
Been distracted like a hundred times
Still I became king to master the art of it
Living a full life and not missing a part of it
King
