King of the World |
| Once upon a time I had tides to control |
| I had worlds to win |
| And stars to ignite |
| And they threw flowers at my feet |
| When I walked through the town |
| Once upon a time I had lives to protect |
| I had rules to change |
| And wrongs to set right |
| And there were people at my side |
| And there were rivers I could guide |
| I wanted nothing in return |
| Let me out of here |
| Give me back all my dreams |
| Let me out of here |
| Let please see the sun |
| Let me out of here |
| At least tell me what I did wrong |
| I’m king of the world |
| Chief of the sea |
| High in the wind |
| At least I used to be And I’m king of the world |
| Please set me free |
| Let me remind them of my promise |
| Live my given destiny |
| Once upon a time I had fate in my hands |
| And the confidence of a million regimes |
| And they said, «Brother you’re in charge |
| We’ll follow anything you say» |
| Once upon a time Father said to me, |
| «Child you are everything |
| That you see in your dreams» |
| And I thought, Jesus, that’s the key |
| There are no walls surrounding me There are no prisons in this life |
| Let me out of here |
| Give me back to the wind |
| Let me out of here |
| Let me please see my son |
| Let me out of here |
| Don’t you understand who I am? |
| I’m king of the world |
| Chief of the sea |
| High in the wind |
| At least I try to be And I’m king of the world |
| Please set me free |
| I had the power and the promise |
| Give me back my family |
| Why are we punished for wanting to explore? |
| Why am I sitting in this cell? |
| I was not challenging the system |
| I was working for the people |
| I just wanted to be better |
| Why are we punished for wanting to survive? |
| Why am I locked behind these bars? |
| Tell the children I’ll return to them |
| Tell them. |
| .. Someone, |
| Let them know I will be free |
| I will not be defeated |
| I will stand like a mountain |
| And the road will stretch before me And they’ll know it’s time to follow |
| And we’ll lift our eyes |
| And raise our heads |
| And face the sun |
| And tell the future |
| I’m king of the world |
| Land of the free |
| High in the sky |
| The best that I can be And I’m king of the world |
| Watch and you’ll see |
| Nothing can stop me from tomorrow, |
| Keep me from my destiny |
| I’m king of the world |
| I’m king of the world |
| I’m. |
| .. I’m. |
| .. |
| At least I used to be |
