Ego's Lament

I was so caught up in the hype and the fame, Thought I could stand with the greats, thought I could claim, The top spot, the throne, the king of the west, But I know now Kendrick, you're still the best. [Chorus] I'm sorry Kendrick, I'm so sorry Kendrick, I let my ego get the best of me, I thought I could take your crown, but I was so wrong, You're the king, I'm just tryin' to sing along. I tried to come for your throne, I tried to take your crown, But you stayed strong, you held your ground, You're the king of the west, the king of the game, And I'm just a fool who got caught up in the fame. [Chorus] I'm sorry Kendrick, I'm so sorry Kendrick, I let my ego get the best of me, I thought I could take your crown, but I was so wrong, You're the king, I'm just tryin' to sing along. [Guitar Solo] I know I can't undo what I've done, The damage is done, the race has been run, But I hope you can find it in your heart, To forgive me, to give me a new start. [Chorus] I'm sorry Kendrick, I'm so sorry Kendrick, I let my ego get the best of me, I thought I could take your crown, but I was so wrong, You're the king, I'm just tryin' to sing along. [Outro] You're the king Kendrick, you'll always be the king. I was so caught up in the hype and the fame, Thought I could stand with the greats, thought I could claim, The top spot, the throne, the king of the west, But I know now Kendrick, you're still the best. [Chorus] I'm sorry Kendrick, I'm so sorry Kendrick, I let my ego get the best of me, I thought I could take your crown, but I was so wrong, You're the king, I'm just tryin' to sing along.
