Kings & Queens

(album: Heart Of An Artist - 2018)

One more shot hits the throat
Two more times he let go
Three ways to die, not gonna lie
There's no turning back for the reckoned man
Taking turns with his hands
One knife, one gun at his command
What bliss, this heist was soon to be his
But little did he know
He had enough

Of feeling like a criminal
Desires on fires so cynical
The cry of a newborn mind
Had dropped the weapons and bled him dry
Regaining strength to free his life
No more!
As he dropped the gun and knife

He wrote these words with a broken pen
This time I'm coming back

This is the king of the crowd
As he holds up the crown
There's no more looking down
Yeah, the proudest man, comes back around
This is the point where he learned
When his life took a turn
You never heard of a comeback like this
He's a fucking king
(He's a fucking king)

One more picture on the wall
Two more times to rise and fall
Three way to harm, without keeping calm
She has nothing more to lose in this game
In the dark hall of fame
Her life was riddled to the shame
This girl was going
Yet without knowing
She stood up proud
She had enough

Of feeling mighty victimized
Relentless things to criticize
Her tears showed lesser fears
As she dropped the bullets and let it slide
Regaining strength to free her life
No more!
As she dropped the gun and knife

She wrote these words with a broken pen
This time I'm coming back

This is the queen of the crowd
As she holds up the crown
There's no more looking down
Yeah, the proudest girl, comes back around
This is the point where she learned
When her life took a turn
You never heard of a comeback like this
She's a fucking queen

As they claimed their remorse
Like a stallion on a horse
Bleeding black and blue in the face of discourse
Holding up higher and prouder
Than the shadows reborn
Now the curse has been torn
Now they're free...
Flooding the gates
Against the dreaded mascarade
They had dealt the wrong cards tonight
When there's a will, there's a might
Stronger than the knight

They wrote these words with a broken pen
This time I'm coming back

They are the kings of the crowd
As they hold up the crown
There's no more looking down
They're a whole new crowd, who just touched the ground
This was the point where they learned
As their lives took a turn
You never heard of a comeback like this
They're the fucking kings and queens
