Danger Zone Lyrics - Love, Angel, Music, Baby - Gwen Stefani

Here to stay 

Even when I'm gone 

When I close my eyes 

Through the passage of time 

Kings never die 

I can hear the drummer drumming 

And the trumpets, someone's tryna summon someone, I know somethin's coming 

But I'm runnin' from it to be standing at the summit 

And plummet, how come it wasn't what I thought it was 

Was it, too good to be true? 

Have nothin', get it all but too much of it 

Then lose it again, did I swallow hallucinogens 

Cause if not, where the hell did it go?

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Cause here I sit in Lucifer's den by the dutch oven 

Just choosing to sin 

Even if it means I'm sellin' my soul, just to be the undisputed again 

Do whatever I gotta do just to win 

Cause I got this motherfuckin' cloud over my head 

Crown around it, thorns on it 

Cracks in it, bet you morons didn't think I'd be back, did ya? 

How 'bout that, I'm somehow now back to the underdog 

But no matter how loud that I bark, this sport is somethin' I never bow-out at 

I complain about the game, I shout and I pout, it's a love-hate 

But I found out that I can move a mountain of doubt 

Even when you bitches are countin' me out, and I appear to be down for the count 

Only time I ever been out and about 

Is drivin' around town with my fuckin' whereabouts in a doubt 

Cause I been lost tryna think of what I did to get here but I'm not a quitter 

Gotta get up, give it all I got or give up 

Spit on, shit on, stepped on, but kept goin' 

I'm tryna be headstrong but it feels like I slept on my neck wrong 

Cause you're moving onto the next, but is the respect gone? 

Cause someone told me that 

(Kings never die) 

Don't give me that sob story liar, don't preach to the choir 

You ain't never even had to reach in the fire to dig deep 

Nobody ever handed me shit in life, not even a flyer 

Wouldn't even take shit into consideration 

Obliterate anyone in the way 

I think I see why a lot of rappers get on these features and try to show out on a track with me 

But it'd actually have to be a fuckin' blow-out to get me to re-tire 

Tell these new artists that kings never die 

Did it just say I've been upstaged? 

Why am I online? It's driving me crazy 

I'm ridin' shotgun tryna get a gauge 

On what's hot, but I'm not one to conform 

But as days pass in this shit 

And opinions sway, I can hear 'em say 

If I stay passionate maybe I can stage a miraculous 

Comeback as if I went away 

But detractors just say so much for the Renegade 

Someone's gonna make me blow my composure 

Here I go again, center stage and I feel like I'm in a cage 

They so want a champion to fall 

It's no wonder why I laugh at 'em, cause why can't we win 'em all? 

So fuck what these cynics say 

(It) just goes ta show that when my back's against the wall 

And I'm under a tack again, that I'll act as if I'm 'posed ta 

With this pent up rage, cause all these plaques in my office 

On the floor stacked against the door 

Are they just metaphors for the odds of me comin' back again? 

Cause all the accomplishments, accolades, awards 

And trophies just don't mean jack anymore 

If I'm here today and gone tomorrow 

And I'm not gonna be 

Here to stay 

Even when I'm gone 

When I close my eyes 

Through the passage of time 

Kings never die 

I want it, I'm comin' to get it 

So you son of a bitches don't duck you're gonna get Riddick Bowe'd 

Critics'll end up in critical, think your shit is dope all you're gonna get is smoked 

And I'm not stopping 'til I'm on top again, all alone and on a throne 

Like a token of respect, or a homage poem, or an ode I've been owed 

Tossed in the air by my own arm, and launched so hard it broke my collarbone 

And when it's my time to go, I'm still not leaving 

Stop for no one, I don't know but I've been told an obstacle that 

Blocks your road, knock it over, time to go for that pot of gold, cause 

They say kings never die 

Just ask Jam Master Jay 

They just grow wings and they fly 

So, hands up, reach for the sky 

Try to hold and prolong these moments 

Cause in a blink of an eye 

They'll be over 

Tryna secure your legacy like Shakur 

And ensure nobody's ever gonna be what you were 

So before you're leavin' this Earth 

You want people to feel the fury of a pure evil cerebral, berserk 

Deacon of words, syllable genius at work 

Plus I'm thinkin' that they're mistakin' my kindness for weakness, kill 'em with meanness 

I went from powdered milk and Farina 

To flippin' burgers on the grill for some peanuts 

From Gilbert's to arenas, call me Gilbert Arenas, still appeal to the dreamers 

I made it to the silverscreen but Rocky's still what the theme is 

Khalil on the beat cause makin' the beat ain't the same feelin' to me as killin' the beat is 

Or fulfillin' to me is what fillin' a seat is 

It's that "Sound Bombing" Thirstin' Howl 

Common, underground, Diamond D, Outsidaz 

Stomach growl, throbbin' hunger, out-rhymin' everyone 

God just give me one shot, I swear that I won't let you down 

I'mma be around forever-and-a-day, even in the ground 

You ain't never ever gonna hear 'em say I ain't 

Here to stay 

Even when I'm gone 

When I close my eyes 

Through the passage of time 

Kings never die
