King of the World

King of the World (世界之王) - Ty Taylor

Once upon a time I had tides to control

I had moons to spin

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 me 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

I am 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

I am 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
