[Verse 1: Low Standards]

Every king will be crowned

Heavens come down

Onto the crowds

Every child the world has lost will be found

Kafka-esque metamorphosis persists all around

I watch the trees as the green starts to recede into brown

I was three on my grandfathers knee told me how

The world would put some money up to try and stifle my sound

The fight to keep up my integrity goes round after round

Towers of paperwork and non-disclosures start falling down

My cynicism takes its roots in wounds I never could mend

From when United Fruit co deposed Jacobo Arbenz

Walk em down on Main Street in mirrorеd shades and a fez

Keep an eyе on fluctuations that belie bigger trends

And triple check where I can allocate the label of friend

Putting rings on broken fingers, we'll combine to the end

Wrote a thousand pages looking for a message to send

My life ambition is to give my son a pillar of strength

Tryna rewire my mind from the lies that I've been taught

Lyrics in my grey matter an escape from these black thoughts

The little figures on my shoulders always define faults

I'm trying to crack the jewels hidden deep in my minds vault

Block out what they say

Take it back to the hey day

Knock out nay sayers

Until all the leather loewe

Sun beams careen clean off my African skin

This just the intro, I can't wait until the story begins

I want a litany of stories I can tell my daughter

Tell her keep her view of self the same until the world has caught up

If it's rags on my feet or some loafers made to order

I'll keep it all consistent right until the final call up

[Interlude: Mizzo x Standards]

This you did say was inspired by "Crowns for Kings" right?

Something like that - oh yeah yeah yeah (741)

[Verse 2: Big Mizzo]

I had a dream that my head was in a guillotine

For alchemy - turning words into movie scenes

Had an epiphany - there's a possibility

M-I-Z has capability to be an MC

There's plenty who resent me

Antagonists who would laugh at this

Fabulous - couldn't add em up even if I used an abacus

I should just turn the page kill em off, make a simple task of this

Because I've read about the Davids and Goliaths

Daniel and the lions

Threw us to the furnace but the fire couldn't fry us

They threw us to the furnace, but the fire couldn't fry us - I'm tired of the liars

We're like the Power Rangers

Because our power ranges between 9000 and infinity

Our power range is beyond your comprehension

Recommend an English lesson

Main cause of stressing is forgetting when to count your blessings

I kept them guessing - had my birth in '05 and month 11

I started stepping, I'm a dog who never needed vetting

I answered all their questions in my days of adolescence

Cause I'm an Ether breather

Synaesthesia a feature

I read Mark chapter 10, and it made me a leader

My life story best-selling you'll see it in theatre

I put my heart in every song until the beat ends

Every one a story - you know it's based on true events

This isn't lyricism - this is literature

In every conflict I'm developing my character

Inciting incident - coincidence does not exist

Hence why I can't permit any thought that says to quit

We're like match sticks, must admit we're pretty lit

Time-machine take it back to how I started with

I had a vision young Miz was in a guillotine

But luckily, I woke up and it was just a dream
