Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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

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

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.
