I am British, I am Jamaican, I am American
I am what I am
From South London to New York, I did that
The eye patch, a unique look
Party type stuff, you know? I did that
I flipped bein' blind into a luxury brand
MC Ricky D to Slick Rick
Icon, fashionista, storyteller, I did that
Sampled over 800 times, kid (I did that)
Had cats stayin' in Clark Wallabees, I did that
When brothers was drivin' Benzes, I pushed 'em into Rolls-Royce's
Posh behavior, I did that
I am the ruler
I represent the bottom, and the top
None can stop, you gots?
Respectfully, I inspired many
That's right, I did that
Please, jewels drippin', gaudy rings
Yellow gold, platinum, rose gold
Custom pieces that represent heritage and royalty
Unapologetically (I did that)
The Great Adventures of Slick Rick
Ayo, creativity, I did that
The Ruler's Back, passionately, I did that
Behind Bars, gracefully, I did that
The Art of Storytelling, elegantly, I did that
The poet and the visionary
We did that
