Here Comes The King
Snoop Dogg ft. Major Lazer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Show no fear, we made it clear
That the warriors are coming and we no play

We at war with the army of haters
And when we kill em we just smoke 'em like papers
Somebody get me my crown cause I'm feeling it now
You might be a lord, but here comes the king
Here I come a steppin' inna the dance
Here I come a steppin' inna the dance
Posted up the wall here inna mi stance
Posted up the wall here inna mi stance
We never fail, we only shine with brilliance
One king one faith one religion
And if you hear me come and join the revolution
One king one faith one religion
And if you hear me come and join the revolution

We at war with the army of haters
And when we kill em we just smoke em like papers
Somebody get me my crown cause I'm feeling it now
You might be a lord, but here comes the king
You might be a lord, but here comes the king

They gonna love me
Call me black chutney
All gold chrome with the diamonds in the back
Lil homies in the front don't know how to act
We comin' deep and you never see us smiling
10 million strong and it will rumble when we are riding
Two shots up for my Africans
Been around the world and back again
Feel so good gotta let me in
Power to the people let em kiss the ring
Bow, here comes the king

We at war with the army of haters
And when we kill em we just smoke em like papers
Somebody get me my crown cause I'm feeling it now
You might be a lord, but here comes the king
You might be a lord, but here comes the king

They know me in Japan and Pakistan
Ganja makes me lord of all the land
I'm royalty no need for me to wear a crown
Born a rebel then I became a man
I heard a voice, he said that I would understand
One king one faith one religion
And if you love me come and join the revolution
One king one faith one religion
And if you love me come and join the revolution

We at war with the army of haters
And when we kill em we just smoke em like papers




Somebody get me my crown cause I'm feeling it now
You might be a lord, but here comes the king

The lyrics to Snoop Dogg Ft Angela Hunte's "Here Comes The King" are an expression of confidence, bravery, and power. The song is about facing the army of haters that the singers are at war with. They state that they do not fear their enemies, and they have made it clear that they are warriors who are coming to fight. They ask for their crown because they are feeling it now, and they remind their audience that they may be lords, but they are the king. The song's chorus repeats the same message several times: they are at war, they kill their enemies, and they smoke them like papers.


Snoop Dogg and Angela Hunte use Jamaican accents and dialects in their lyrics to celebrate their Jamaican roots. This is also evident in the reggae-inspired beats and the structure of the song.

This is probably the best collaboration I've ever seen. ML and Snoop Dogg/Lion were made for each other, have so much love for both of them

Big MD

love the chorus and LOVE THE RIDDIM! say what you want, i was sceptic about snoop and reggae, but this are some positive vibes! Big UP SNOOP

Joseph Wall

Fantastic hook in this song. Listened to it on repeat for like 20 minutes just now. Those of you who can't get into it (haters): You can't come into this looking for Snoop Dogg, it's not that type of music, this is clearly the work of Snoop Lion.

Can't wait to hear Snoop's debut as a reggae artist. I think he's pulling it off well so far.

speedatlantic

Snoop Lion! Thanks for no gimmicks. No bs. Just good vibes!

Darius Vi

This is probably the most perfect song for making a remix. This is so perfect for an epic drop!!! Somebody make epic dubstep remixes out of this!!!

Anibal Pacheco
