We're the kings of rock now, nigga, know what I mean?
Queensday
Cash made on Hollis Ave
Queens-Queens-Queens-Queensbridge
Make it— Make it seem easy
Queensday

Q-B-O-R-O
Make it— Make it seem easy
Yo, from the days of encores
Hung around blocks and corner stores
However, won't change, them fantasies rush in the door
Niggas from Rockdale, poppin' shells, snatchin' rings
Fly from Shirt Kings from Queensbridge to 118
I had my eyes open, steppin' out into the world
Soul fingers, Olde English 'til I earl, growin' pains
A young kid learned it early how to know the game
USA roller skate rink, mobs and crews would take minks
Clean streets, hustlers, crackhead whores
Gave back by throwin' block parties and basketball games
A lot of cash made on Hollis Ave, fast as change
High rollers was livin' until the task force came
A lot of ghost towns and memories, bad blood and enemies
So many died with the same gangster pride that entered me
Peace to them old timers, they who taught us
How to stand strong and pass it on to the sons and daughters
We all glow, and I'm proud to be all that I know
Q-B-O-R-O, nigga, who I die for
Survive war, how we came a long way in solidarity
Don't let nothin' try to spoil this day
To Run, D and Jay, it's love and my thug salute
'Cause real love the only thing that comes above this loot
Carhartt jeans, it makes me think of LL's troops
Let's celebrate, it's Queensday, this one's for you

Some come out they hometown and they never get dough
But three teens from Queens took over the world and never let go
Just regular cats, you know, that just happened to blow
Now synonymous with Hollis, Jake, Darryl and Joe
Ayo, we made it so that others could grow
Look at LL and Tribe Called Quest mobbin' Nas Esco'
Ain't takin' credit but showin' pride, look at us now
Got haters' mouths all open wide, wonderin' how
In some cases, the only thing that father and son
Have in common is they love to run
Been the illest since day one, too advanced to ever be caught
Who's more legendary than me? That's what I thought
And if somebody wanna test mine
Yo, watch this, Peter Piper picked peppers, nigga, what the fuck?
And see, I knew you knew the next line, and I bet you said it
It's been a minute, I'm still the
King of the world, so don't forget it

Nigga— Nigga, who I die for
This is for my Q dogs who lit a block like park
We grew up on Olde English
Summertime, Roy Wilkins Park used to be the shit
Why they had to stop on the ave, niggas lootin' all the jewelry spots
Hit the Shirt Kings for a ill airbrushed top
That'd match my Cortez Nikes
Niggas gettin' robbed at the back door, comin' out with bags
We used to get our gold fronts from Eddie's Gold Caps
Which I know about that, I bet the whole Queens do
Around '86 with the Boom Bash Crew
The Young Guns and Lost Boyz made the news
Queensbridge and Astoria too, story is true
So let's party for the borough and shit
And everybody come outside, 'cause it's Queensday, kid
