When The Lions Come Lyrics - Jon Bellion

When the lions come and they turn to fight 

Will you lose your soul? will you lose your pride? 

Cause the only thing they need is to smell a drop of fear inside 

When the lions come, will you turn to fight? 

Yeah, they tried to stop me 

Tried to box me in the ring but I'm rocky 

Indeed I'mma rumble 

If the lions come I am, uh 

Gonna be deemed new king of the jungle 

I came from the bottom where it's not a problem 

You know they got iron and chrome 

And they firing at domes 

And they hold more grams than retirement homes 

I made it out all on my own 

The homies know I was alone 

But they be calling my phone If they need some money in other words I was a loan 

Now I'm in the zone 

Should have been another statistic 

But I said fuck it I'll risk it 

Looked death right in the face and I kissed it 

No evidence and no trace of the lipstick 

Now ain't nobody gonna stop me now 

Ain't nobody gonna knock me down 

I'm from the school of the hard knocks breaking doors down they trynna lock me out 

If you stayed to fight then you might have won 

But they caught your ass cause you tried to run 

Me, Jon B, Blaque Keyz, in a fighting stance when the lions come

When the lions come and they turn to fight 

Will you lose your soul? will you lose your pride? 

Cause the only thing they need is to smell a drop of fear inside 

When the lions come, will you turn to fight? 

Yeah, lemme get it like this lemme rip it like this so sick don't spit 

I vomit, bomb it, wearing the freshest of garments, blowing up yeah we the bombest, never cocky I'm just honest, reppin' artanis, woah 

Maryland what I be reppin' the second I step in, I murder like weapon 

Let me bring the tech and I'll hit ya like tekken and I'm gone 

Whatever record I'm on, I just wreck it and I'm gone 

R-A-Double T -P-A-C-K, V's up, all day, yeah we do it our way 

I push white keys like Beethoven, while blaque keyz drop 16's, like the sistine, that's so mean 

Hell yeah that's so clean 

Can I get it, Lemme get it, I got to get it, I got to spit it from the heart, lemme tear it apart 

Living the real life, everybody want to know what it feel like 

Rock with a drop top, living on top, lemme get it, I get ready to pop, when they bopping they head, when they rocking' the bed 

If I couldn't do this then I'd be dead

When the lions come and they turn to fight 

Will you lose your soul? will you lose your pride? 

Cause the only thing they need is to smell a drop of fear inside 

When the lions come, will you turn to fight? 

Man it's unreasonable to think that Keyz won't leave MC's extinct 

I never had a reason to, until now to get that spear and hit that Jeep? 

See me swerving like Steve Irwin through herds of nervous MC's 

I sink my teeth in their verses, each feature becomes a feast 

Lay back, relax in my den, get paid from the royalties and bring it back to the pack and just let my family eat 

I'm a predator on this beat, every metaphor is my prey 

My roar rumbles your feet, I'll place your head on my tray 

I'm letting your girl pat me, run fingers all through my mane 

The pride of a dying breed with ferocity in my veins 

At the top of the food chain, the philosophy is the same 

So live properly, so one day they won't throw you in no cage 

Keyz is king of the jungle no rumbling with the snakes 

You running when I'm on the prowl 

I pounce you can't keep the pace 

You know I've been earning stripes got zebra print on my face 

Got to make it apart of ya, see the world through my wardrobe like Narnia
