Verse 1
I went all in, but I wasn't suited
You folded on me, guess the love was diluted
Now here I am just trying to reboot it
Got me taking blame I guess I really blew it
Felt like I hit Broadway, but I was missing my queen
Felt like a gut punch when you went and did your thing
I held the nuts, I was on top of the world
Been stuck in a rut since I lost my baby girl
When you left, I had so much pain, I would shiver
Had me drinking alcohol, I was fucking up my liver
You wouldn't text or call, message left on delivered
But luckily for me, I got my boat on the river
To me, you was my one true ace
Loved everything about you, from your toes to your face
My love for you was massive, from the ground up to space
Memories of you dancing, moving with such grace
Now I'm using your chapstick, just to feel your taste
I was stuck to you like glue yeah you can call me paste
But now I’m crying boo, cause you left without a trace
Hook
I was a king, straight down to the nine,
But my queen went missing in time,
Jacked my heart, but I'm doing fine,
Kept it on ten, even when you ain't mine,
I was a king, straight down to the nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
Verse 2
I got this picture in my head, got me praying to Messiah
About a happy family—me, you, Ploots, and Jo-siah
Riding to the beach, while listening to Mariah
Because we belong together, baby, that's my desire
I hit you with a straight, but you flushed it down the toilet
I gave you my heart, but then you went and spoiled it
I was all in, yeah, I betted all my chips
Guess you had a better hand when you raised the stakes and dipped
I had my pocket twos, while I was begging you for truth
You set me on the loose when you chunked up the deuce
You play the game, but you play it very nitty
This is life we talking about, so of course you're being picky
My love for you is grand, it's not itty-bitty
I wanna be your man, cause missing you is shitty
I wanna rub you down with oils, but I'm not talking Diddy
But I'll take you to a party, to turn up and get litty
Queen returns to king, yeah, that's a perfect story
But the king has some work to do, because the queen is worried
So the king straightens up and defends his territory
Stand by her side, even when the visions looking blurry
Hook
I was a king, straight down to the nine,
But my queen went missing in time,
Jacked my heart, but I'm doing fine,
Kept it on ten, even when you ain't mine,
I was a king, straight down to the nine, nine, nine, nine, nine,
Estilo de Música
Gritty emotional melodic rap over a modern trap beat with a confident, raw edge. Mid-tempo (75–95 BPM). Dark, cinematic atmosphere with an urban, slightly rough texture. Hard-hitting 808s with slight distortion and grit, sitting loud but controlled. Punchy trap drums with sharp snares, aggressive hi-hats, and occasional off-kilter bounce for tension. Instrumentation includes haunting piano chords, moody ambient pads, and minimal distorted guitar accents for emotional weight.
Vocals are the focus: a gritty, slightly raspy rap vocal with emotional strain and realism, blended with melodic phrasing in the hook. Some slight vocal distortion or saturation for texture, making it feel raw and unpolished in moments. Delivery is confident but vulnerable—like pain expressed with control, not collapse. The hook is melodic, catchy, and slightly sung but still rough around the edges, not clean p
