1st Chorus: (Poetic Lace)
What is a king?
He’s a servant, the chief of helping others,
Quick to lay his life down so others can succeed,

What is a king?
He’s a lover, the one who shows compassion,
Quick to tell the truth and he’s faithful through it all,

What is a king?
He’s a leader, wisdom is his weapon,
He listens to his people and he teaches with his actions,

What is a king?
He’s a Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ,
And he trust the Lord as King of his life

1st Verse: (Poetic Lace)
Being a king we can win without the money,
Yall jokers in a card deck, we don’t play yall cause yall funny,
Jack of hearts, you ain’t a spade, yall tryna take our queens,
But these kings cutting diamonds, bowing knees, and giving rings,
Fifty-two cards but there’s only one of kind,
You done played every club and you still ain’t won a round,
Reneging on the faith makes you lose what you took,
Thought you had a winning hand but our Ace got you shook,
There’s only one queen, that has a heart,
So count up all your books, before you start,
The king dominates but not just as the face,
He’s willing to take an L, prevail is what we spell,
Covering the deck is an honor but stay focused,
Spades do the cutting but jokers are still lurking,
Regardless of your hand your partner can win the game,
But you still got to deal being wise

2nd Chorus: (Poetic Lace)
What is a king?
He’s a servant, the chief of helping others,
Quick to lay his life down so others can succeed,

What is a king?
He’s a lover, the one who shows compassion,
Quick to tell the truth and he’s faithful through it all,

What is a king?
He’s a leader, wisdom is his weapon,
He listens to his people and he teaches with his actions,

What is a king?
He’s a Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ,
And he trust the Lord as King of his life

2nd Verse: (Poetic Lace)
What is a coward?
A man that hits a woman,
The man neglects his kids,
He blames others for his problems,
Claiming that you’re a boss doesn’t mean you get employees,
Doesn’t mean you paid your taxes, doesn’t mean you get respect,
I’m saying, I’m saying,
The Lord anoints the king,
He does it through His Word let me tell you what I mean,
The Bible breaks down the kings historically,
Through the prophet, God chose Saul to fill a need,
But Saul lost it all when he started people pleasing,
Now David’s on the rise cause he’s after God’s heart,
I learned two things that makes or breaks a man,
Thing one, live for acceptance you die from it,
Thing two, true success is in the Lord,
Focus on your name don’t worry about the riches,
Royalty is not what makes a man a king,
It is walking in the authority of Christ

3rd Chorus: (Poetic Lace)
What is a king?
He’s a servant, the chief of helping others,
Quick to lay his life down so others can succeed,

What is a king?
He’s a lover, the one who shows compassion,
Quick to tell the truth and he’s faithful through it all,

What is a king?
He’s a leader, wisdom is his weapon,
He listens to his people and he teaches with his actions,

What is a king?
He’s a Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ,
And he trust the Lord as King of his life
