Jason Robert Brown - King Of The World lyrics

Your rating:

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 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
