lyrics

Well I was born into royalty
You see when I was three I was heir to the king
I snap my fingers
The job was done
Don’t you see I was the main man’s son
Staying up late all night with my mates we ruled the palace floor
Diamonds and emeralds
Rubies and pearls
We made a score
I was the king
Until she walked out on me and I threw it all away
I was the King
As far as the eye could see
Forest walls surround me
Dark shadows
Old bones
I meditate on my own
Looking for the higher plains
Monkeys walk inside my brain
The sunlight dies
I survive
The forest floor becomes alive
I was the king
Until she walked out on me and I threw it all away
I was the king
I was the king
Until she walked out on me and I threw it all away
I was the king
