(Intro — Singing)
Kumasi boy, yeah I come from the sun and the rain,
Life show me love, life show me struggle and pain,
Grandpa gone but his spirit dey call out my name,
Sɛ medwen me ho… I no go ever be the same.
King Traper on the rise… yeah, yeah.

(Verse 1 — Rap)
From Ahodwo to Bantama side, I dey move,
K Town streets teach me hustle, teach me groove,
Grandpa tell me, “Keep your head high, never lose,”
Now he watching from the sky while I dey chase my truth.
Dad tell me, “My son, you go rise,”
Mom hold me down, love full for her eyes,
Family be backbone wey dey keep me alive,
For their sake I go push, I go grind, I go strive.
King Traper stepping out with the fire inside,
Turning all my pain into blessings wey collide.
---
(Chorus — Singing)
Kumasi raise me, oh yeah,
Through the fire and the tears,
Grandpa bless me from up there,
I dey climb up every year.
Ohhh, King Traper no dey fear,
I go turn my pain into cheer.
---
(Verse 2 — Rap/Singing Mix)
Dem no know the battles wey we fight inside,
Silent cries but I still dey keep my pride,
Dad and mom be my light, they be my guide,
Every setback be lesson wey dey push my stride.
From Kumasi roots to the world I appear,
King Traper voice loud, make the whole place hear,
Living for the ones wey no dey here,
I dey rise up steady every year.
---
(Outro — Singing)
Kumasi boy, yeah I rise again,
Even when the sky feel grey with rain,
Grandpa smile as I call his name,
King Traper… I’ll make you proud again.
