tragic hero - forever king lyrics
[intro]
me, i just, i just wanted to be wanted
just wanted to be wanted
[verse 1]
uh, told pops that i loved him i was only nine
just before attention from the water fell
shoulda probably handed him a forty-ounce
i only said it once but who really counting
just a little bitter man, who woulda knew
teach us how to march when i wasn’t at school
moms told me not to say a word
cause they might charge daddy as a criminal (criminal)
drunk outta his mind, whooping on my mom
almost stabbed her to death caught her from behind
going crazy watching naz and his dad
i would daydream but the daydreams never last (no)
in my mind i’m k!lling everybody off (off)
the chorus want us school and that is daddy involved
i’m looking who to blame so i’m looking in the mirror
everyday is a finale in the valley of the lost
i guess the world ain’t everything i thought it was
you can talk about a bottle yeah that’s not enough (no)
14, 15 doing what i want when i wanna do it
better moving if i’m moving up
whole world i’m just proving myself
won’t learn from anybody i can do it myself
got a car, job, money, i don’t need no help
i always seem to get a crowd as soon as i fell i
[chorus]
young man i know you gon’ reach every dream (young man you gon’ reach every dream)
you don’t gotta be your own worse enemy (you don’t gotta be your own worse enemy)
gotta put your own words to the melody (put your own words to the melody)
and then sing it to yourself for n-body else
n-body told me i would be
forever king!
forever king
n-body told me i would be
forever king!
forever, forever
forever king
n-body told me i would be
now tell ’em i’ma be, i’ma i’ma be, i’ma i’ma be
forever king! i’ma i’ma be, i’ma i’ma be
forever king
forever, forever
forever king!
n-body told me i would be (forever king)
[verse 2]
uh, before i could say a word like a preface
learned love wasn’t better than respect
now i’m pushing every b-tton hope it detonates something
i could wake up one day and it resets (uh)
i got many memories i could never dream
i relive the moment every night and go to sleep
this is everything to me eyes closed
i was sitting on the edge with couple heads i don’t even know
i need god more than ever, my heart’s too callused
why they looking at my like a past due balance
i don’t owe em nuthin’, living in a ghetto
looking down a barrel playing par to the cello
when my whole heart says to be playing mozart
they don’t know barricaded behind a closed door
up in the contact, i got that, lets blow
you’re allowed to smoke from the mouth till explode
got a hundred-thousand kids that’re feeling this
and we’ve been learning how to live with no inner sense
and now they call us criminals and put us on these medications just to put us in a better place we never been
should’ve never put us there
now i’m breaking up with every mirror
now the shattered pieces of reflections that i’m picking up
is the only thing i really wanna share
[chorus]
young man i know you gon’ reach every dream (young man you gon’ reach every dream)
you don’t gotta be your own worse enemy (you don’t gotta be your own worse enemy)
gotta put your own words to the melody (put your own words to the melody)
and then sing it to yourself for n-body else
n-body told me i would be
forever king!
forever king
n-body told me i would be
forever king!
forever, forever
forever king
n-body told me i would be
now tell ’em i’ma be, i’ma i’ma be, i’ma i’ma be
forever king i’ma i’ma be, i’ma i’ma be
forever king
forever, forever
forever king!
n-body told me i would be (forever king)
