Land of the Kings
Verse One
Yo', I was a class clown, school joker, teasing Miss Stoker
in registration, cards lined up like its poker
thirty minutes is over, first lesson of the day has started
some pupils chill at the back acting retarded
I was much more than able,
but soon the teachers labelled me
“the student that's responsible for banging on the table”
tried to take my skills further, made some joints you never heard a',
with the same Strappa Treese mentioned in Klashnekoff's 'Murder'
it's lunchtime, I grab a burger from the women that would serve ya'
I was a keen observer of the honest and the purgers
some of my lessons had my textbook straight wordless
history was like punishment, I felt “I don't deserve this”
I wont die trying it, I guess I wasn't Curtis
and no I wasn't nervous, it just didn't serve a purpose
this isn't criticism of the education service (echo)
Chorus (x4)
(scratching) Come follow we on this journey Kickin' it in the back of the school
Verse Two
Yo', my year group had nearly two hundred students
some of them were so stupid and some of them were so prudent
and nobody was famous but neither was someone nameless
and mos def, no one was blameless
so kids just like Mark Defraitas were accused of the latest

like dissin' somebody's trainers
and that could cause a fight in a place that we call 'Las' Vegas'
in the street now, punks jump up to get beat down
would you believe there was referee for each round?
And that was like an everyday thing
where your reputation stood on whether you could really win
I was the opposite of Michael, weren't no lover, was a fighter
so in school I got my tooth chipped in a brawl with Leon Tyghter
Derek would spark a lighter and if he permits
he'd let you join a conversation bout' who had the biggest tits
and that included the teachers, some gave up on trying to reach us
looking down on some students like we some pitiful creatures but we kings
Chorus (x4)
Verse Three
I had a lot of respect for Chris Wilson, Steve Gallagher
the two teachers who understood my calibre
my timetable calendar, I wish it would start with my favourite lessons,
that's music and drama and art
I'm so creative, that's why I did my best and I thought hard
so I could get an A at the top of my report card
yeah I was kind of smart but never nerdy
I would love to tell you more but now the time is three thirty so I'm out... we kings (echo)
