[Verse 1]
It's been a long time, but we're back with the gems
It's the return of the rooftop assassin, in '10
We made magic, heads wanted more when chances were slim
But now it's here, so you don't ever need to ask me again

Before I settle into character, rest in peace
To Avenging Wind and Praverb, two real MCs
And there's no features from amateurs, just classic beats
And rhymes on dust, but you ain't getting that for free

To make it simple for the simpletons, rappers are Scott Templetons
Bullshit ya for the Pulitzer
With empty notepads, where your quotes at?
The game treat me like I'm Gus Haynes, to tell the truth is to love pain

Cassandra syndrome's the burden of a young king
The essence that I draw from's the antonym to mundane
Authority that's earned always trumps royal pedigree
My legacy will prove to the plebs I'll forever be


[Chorus]
Kuningas - The Paladin returns to an empty throne
Time to take the reins, rule the land like it's my own
Kuningas - I don't give a fuck about a claim
If blood's thicker than water, you will spill it in my name

Kuningas - Better loved abroad than at home
But the soul of my birthplace's embedded in my poems
Kuningas - I don't give a fuck if you applaud me
Guaranteed, Cee'll score like Jari when he was fourty


[Verse 2]
Score like Sel‰nne, the great 8, hard down the corner pocket
It drops, like blood from your nasal
My man conquered seas and the sky when he was naval
While internationally, I collaborated, my name grew

Underestimating me is a mistake
Which, wouldn't you know, happens to get made every day
Networking with people from 16 different countries
And there you go talking about the money

Chatting to your ass, sky's always overcast
If I'm not charting, every compliment is backhanded
I'm accused of grandstanding when I'm better than most
They can't stand it, silent in my presence

Venemous in my absence, axes to asses
Then ashes to ashes, grains to the granary
Bread never broken with those of false flattery
The lames might like you but the game will respect me as


[Chorus]
Kuningas - The Paladin returns to an empty throne
Time to take the reins, rule the land like it's my own
Kuningas - I don't give a fuck about a claim
If blood's thicker than water, you will spill it in my name

Kuningas - Better loved abroad than at home
But the soul of my birthplace's embedded in my poems
Kuningas - I don't give a fuck if you applaud me
Guaranteed, Cee'll score like Jari when he was fourty
