lyrics

Verse 1:
I keep my trophies in the basement
My foundation: greatness
First place every day when I wake then
I build more towards the sky I'm scraping
I climb so high I'm space adjacent
When it comes to boasts, know I'm a statesman
Raise a cup in toast up to that statement
It sounds so good you can almost taste it
Number 1 with a bullet if I bothered to rank this
Face it, when I bake beats, I'm based
Masaharu Morimoto, spicing right to taste
Cooking jams like the Shinkansen, setting the pace
An express lane bullet train with heading and haste

Chorus:
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
DKE Comin (Yeah, we gonna show you how)
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
Yeah, you better start running (running, running)
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
DKE Comin (Yeah, we gonna show you how)
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
Diane, not Dunning (Dunning, Dunning)

Verse 2:
Coming soon to a speaker near
You, DKE and the tempo of doom
Get your Reese’s Pieces ready and your popcorn too
Fluid grooves sliding through like a PVC tube
From Tokyo to Kyoto, we flow smooth
In Bruges, we adduce a little blue blood lurks
And how an earworm works like Mansplain Smurf
A bathyscaph on wax, getting deep in the trench
Unquenchable in this life or the next
The Flux Capacitor detonates at 94 BPMs
The Sickle Man takes the train to the end
With the gigawatt boost, it’s haunting Marcel Proust
St. Peter’s dropping the needle; no one’s bulletproof

Chorus:
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
DKE Comin (Yeah, we gonna show you how)
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
Yeah, you better start running (running, running)
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
DKE Comin (Yeah, we gonna show you how)
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
Diane, not Dunning (Dunning, Dunning)

Verse 3:
I can’t even pretend, I
Pen rhymes that others have said can bend minds
Ya head fries if you try to comprehend lines
But listen ten times; then you’ll end wise
Cuz when I get the mic, it’s like I ascend sky
Doves cry, butterflies get tied up and confess
That they really need to reassess how to get fly
It’s sweeter than hives with a buzz like red wine
Bath and Body Works calls me fresher than pine
And thyme with me is sage; it’s herbal evidence
The doc’s in the residence but manners ain’t bedside
The neurosis diagnosis that made ya neck jive?
The Effect’s set in again — dead right

Chorus:
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
DKE Comin (Yeah, we gonna show you how)
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
Yeah, you better start running (running, running)
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
DKE Comin (Yeah, we gonna show you how)
DKE Comin (Gonna tell you what it's all about)
Diane, not Dunning (Dunning, Dunning)
