Here’s a storyFor you allYou won’t believe it
That’s for sureBut I tell the truth
That stings my heart
Of gorgeous queen
And a lonesome bard
She fell in love with me
That’s how I almost
Became a king
I travelled far
My road was long
I played my luteAnd sang my songs
Then one nightIn walks a queen
Hair, dress, everything
She looked me with
Her pretty eyesI’ve never seen
Such lovely smile
She danced until the dawn
That’s how I almost
Seized the throne
As soon as sun began to rise
King sent his royal spies
She could not resist my charms
She almost fell into my armsI tell you all, I wouldn’t lieI fled the scene in a nick of time
Still today I singHow I almostBecame your king

Yeah, the champ is here, I'm built different.
Listen up, I got somethin' to say, Keep your ears and eyes on me, I'm built different, I ain't average,
Just here to play,
This ain't no hopscotch,
Nah, I'm built different, Pound for pound,
You don't want it with me,
I ain't here to make friends,
I'm here to compete, Prepare yourself,
Your defeat is imminent,
Coz I'm built different, So what it is? Who's next?
Who I gotta talk to?
Who's signing the checks? First pick of the draft,
Never touch a bench, Bout to drop some knowledge,
Why don't you go fetch? You wanna know how a champ is made? Through blood, sweat and tears,
Never mind the shade, What's a hater to an MVP?
You ain't finna get a rise outta me.
They don't make em' like me no more,
I'm something' like a classic, If you thinkin' you can even the score,
You gon' need some magic, I'm built different,
You wouldn't understand, I'm built different,
That's why I'm highly in demand.
Hold up, I don't think you heard me, I meant what I said,
Yeah I'm built different, I done' proved that I'm more than worthy, It's time to get ahead,
I told you I'm built different, I shoot to score,
I was born for this, Every day I go harder and I never miss, Prepare yourself,
Your defeat is imminent,
Coz I'm built different.
They don't make em' like me no more,
I'm something' like a classic, If you thinkin' you can even the score,
You gon' need some magic, I'm built different,
You wouldn't understand, I'm built different,
That's why I'm highly in demand.
