VERSE 1:
When I was younger I walked with my head down
Taught to hide what I believe
Everyday was a struggle on the battleground (the battleground, the battleground)
Words like daggers used to cut me down
Now I wear my scars proudly
As my blue heart beats in this red town, strongly...
PRE-CHORUS:
I don't wanna pretend
No longer wanna fit in
I won't hide behind a lie
Made up my mind
That I'm a King (King, King)
Decorated in my own skin (Yeah)
I finally believe in
A light I was forced to hide
But I survived
Cause I'm a King (King, King)
CHORUS:
I... I'm not giving up, giving up
And I... won't stop giving love, giving love
I won't bow down for a mindless crowd
I shine as I wear this crown, Yeah
I... I'm a King, (King, King)
VERSE 2:
You attack my pride
Light the fire inside
My heart will keep on burning away
Locked me in your tomb
It became my cocoon
And now, I'm gonna fly (I'm gonna fly)
PRE-CHORUS:
I don't wanna pretend
No longer wanna fit in
I won't hide behind a lie
Made up my mind
That I'm a King (King, King)
Decorated in my own skin (Yeah)
I finally believe in
A light I was forced to hide
But I survived
Cause I'm a King (King, King)
CHORUS:
I... I'm not giving up, giving up (I'm not giving up)
And I... won't stop giving love, giving love (I won't stop, won't stop)
I won't bow down for a mindless crowd
I shine as I wear this crown, Yeah
I... I'm a King, (King, King)
BRIDGE:
Never let them break you down
Never let them take your crown
Your love,
Is love...
Never let them break you down
Never let them take your crown
Your love,
Is love...
CHORUS:
I... I'm not giving up, giving up (I'm not giving up)
And I... won't stop giving love, giving love (I won't stop, won't stop)
I won't bow down for a mindless crowd
I shine as I wear this crown, Yeah
I... I'm a King, (King, King)
BRIDGE & CHORUS:
I... I'm not giving up, giving up (I'm not giving up)
And I... won't stop giving love, giving love (I won't stop, won't stop)
I won't bow down for a mindless crowd
I shine as I wear this crown, Yeah
I... I'm a King, (King, King)
