King of the World (世界之王) - Ty Taylor[00:00:00]
Once upon a time I had tides to control[00:00:23]
I had moons to spin[00:00:26]
And stars to ignite[00:00:28]
And they threw flowers at my feet[00:00:30]
When I walked through the town[00:00:32]
Once upon a time I had lives to protect[00:00:38]
I had rules to change[00:00:40]
And wrongs to set right[00:00:43]
And there were people at my side[00:00:45]
And there were rivers I could guide[00:00:47]
I wanted nothing in return[00:00:49]
Let me out of here[00:00:52]
Give me back all my dreams[00:00:53]
Let me out of here[00:00:55]
Let me please see the sun[00:00:57]
Let me out of here[00:00:59]
At least tell me what I did wrong[00:01:01]
I'm king of the world[00:01:07]
Chief of the sea[00:01:10]
I am the wind[00:01:12]
At least I used to be[00:01:13]
And I'm king of the world[00:01:14]
Please set me free[00:01:17]
Let me remind them of my promise[00:01:19]
Live my given destiny[00:01:22]
Once upon a time I had fate in my hands[00:01:32]
And the confidence of a million regimes[00:01:35]
And they said Brother you're in charge[00:01:39]
We'll follow anything you say[00:01:41]
Once upon a time Father said to me [00:01:47]
Child you are everything[00:01:49]
That you see in your dreams[00:01:51]
And I thought Jesus that's the key[00:01:54]
There are no walls surrounding me[00:01:56]
There are no prisons in this life[00:01:58]
Let me out of here[00:02:01]
Give me back to the wind[00:02:03]
Let me out of here[00:02:04]
Let me please see my son[00:02:06]
Let me out of here[00:02:08]
Don't you understand who I am[00:02:10]
I'm king of the world[00:02:16]
Chief of the sea[00:02:19]
I am the wind[00:02:21]
At least I try to be[00:02:22]
And I'm king of the world[00:02:24]
Please set me free[00:02:26]
I had the power and the promise[00:02:28]
Give me back my family[00:02:31]
Why are we punished for wanting to explore[00:02:37]
Why am I sitting in this cell[00:02:40]
I was not challenging the system[00:02:44]
I was working for the people[00:02:47]
I just wanted to be better[00:02:49]
Why are we punished for wanting to survive[00:02:52]
Why am I locked behind these bars[00:02:55]
Tell the children I'll return to them[00:03:00]
Tell them[00:03:02]
Someone let them know I will be free[00:03:03]
I will not be defeated[00:03:09]
I will stand like a mountain[00:03:13]
And the road will stretch before me[00:03:17]
And they'll know it's time to follow[00:03:19]
And we'll lift our eyes[00:03:20]
And raise our heads[00:03:22]
And face the sun[00:03:22]
And tell the future[00:03:23]
I'm king of the world[00:03:24]
Land of the free[00:03:27]
High in the sky[00:03:29]
The best that I can be[00:03:30]
And I'm king of the world[00:03:32]
Watch and you'll see[00:03:35]
Nothing can stop me from tomorrow [00:03:37]
Keep me from my destiny[00:03:39]
I'm king of the world[00:03:41]
I'm king of the world[00:03:44]
I'm[00:03:48]
I'm[00:03:52]
At least I used to be[00:03:59]
