'Bout to take it to another chamber from Medina to Marseille, Marseille, Marseille 

Yo, IAM, SUNZ OF MAN from the ROYAL FAM never ate ham, never gave a damn 

In the begining there was darkness, then came light 
I grab the mic to dis' your ass just for spite 
What? You can't f*ck with the flows I bring 
Watch the staff I swing 
It's Timbo King, astonishing, I'm dramatic to the ear 
Television tells lies to your vision 
So, beware of the trick-nology set off to fool the mind 
If you're dumb you're lost, if you're wise you will find 
That poison is a devil substance made for scratch 
'Cause one rotten apple destroys the whole batch you scratch 
I throw jabs to your jaws so quick 
You get bashed in the head with a stone face brick 
We're thick like molasses, deeper than the earth's mantle 
Royal take over, stampede, trample 
Those who force kids tell lies to the youth 
My grand child, my roots run deep is proof what?

A 17 ans je me suis fait une raison 
J'étais un petit con, un nerveux, spasmophile 
Baston et je frappais un coup de pied dans la table 
Tout volait envenimé par la négativité 
Tant d'échecs, tant de défaites 
Ont forgé le mordant, pour encaisser les coups dans ma mentalité 
Fauché, sans occupation, il n'y a pas pire 
Je ne possédais rien et je voulais fonder un empire 
J'ai persisté, dit des trucs vrais et ai été pisté 
J'ai insisté et le groupe IAM a existé 
Pour de bon, j'étais sincère 
J'écris des vers pour mes pairs 
Et il n'y a qu'eux qui flippent derrière 
De l'attention, ils se foutaient, donc j'ai roulé pour ma poire 
Comme le gaz, les intouchables phases de mes phrases 
J'ai même changé d'avis pour la saga 
C'est plus je revenais quand tu allais, j'y retournais 

Yo, IAM, SUNZ OF MAN from the ROYAL FAM 
Never ate ham, never gave a damn 
Never ate ham, never gave a damn 
Never ate ham, never gave a damn 
Never ate ham, never gave a damn 

I'm blowing niggaz out the frame 
Now what's my motherfuking name (Dreddy Krueger)
I'm playing niggas like a boy game
You can't f*ck with the drunk Dreddy Krueger
Blaow! Blaow!
Two slugs from my rugger and I move ya (move ya)
I write rhyme when I'm sober 
Singing when I'm drunk 
The Buddha Monk got the skunk 
Yo, I smoke niggas like kryptonite blunts 
Dog bitches like soup, fucking up my stew, then yo 
I step the gates and troop to see my nigga 
The GZA, who had my bulletproof (my bulletproof) 
Vest for my chest to relieve some of my stress (stress) 
And I'm safe from my neck to my waist 
But still I gotta to worry about a nigga catching me in the face 
And beat the case, just 'cause he had papes (papes)
(Get it straight)

Yo, IAM, SUNZ OF MAN from the ROYAL FAM 
Never ate ham, never gave a damn 
Never ate ham, never gave a damn 
Never ate ham, never gave a damn 
Never ate ham, never gave a damn 

La route vers le but fixé est longue et périlleuse 
Souvent bordée de tavernes aux enseignes lumineuses 
Et c'est dur de résister à l'invitation 
De rester posé sur le rail comme un wagon 
Telle une flèche filer droit sur la cible 
Ignorer les ragots est la seule solution possible 
Le temps passe trop vite pour que j'y prête 
Une attention quelconque, je sais qu'en fait 
Tout le monde veut la même chose 
Mais personne ne veut que tu l'obtiennes avant les autres 
Pourtant, je roule pour moi, fils 
Tant pis pour les autres si la médisance est leur hobby favori 
Je suis sorti de cette période néfaste où 
Tu te prélasses en attendant que tout se fasse 
J'avance fort de mes expériences passées et je souris 
En voyant ceux qui s'empressent d'y aller
