Kingdom

(album: OKURA - 2022)

I've walked a thousand miles
I've walked a thousand miles in circles
Trying to find my way
I've lived a thousand lives
I've lived a thousand lives searching
Just dying to find my place

(Living with the dead weight)
That has taken hold
(Of this doomed fate)
On a path to nowhere
(No escape)
And it takes you over
Before it drags you under

Break away
Face the pain
Don't deny
What the voice inside you says
Live your way
And make your fate
Never bow, take the crown
In a kingdom you create

Brick by brick
Build your own kingdom
Brick by brick
Rise up from your knees
Brick by brick
Build your own kingdom
No one can tell you what to be

I've seen with my own eyes
I've seen a thousand times that nothing
Comes to those who wait

Before the light begins to fade
Before the day is over
Before the path erodes away
And you're going nowhere

Break away
Face the pain
Don't deny
What the voice inside you says
Live your way
And make your fate
Never bow, take the crown
In a kingdom you create

Brick by brick
Build your own kingdom
Brick by brick
Rise up from your knees
Brick by brick
Build your own kingdom
No one can tell you what to be

Will we live down on our knees?
Will we lie down in defeat?

(No escape)
And it takes you over
Before it drags you under

Break away
Face the pain
I'll stand and die
Before I'll live down on my knees
Live your way
And make your fate
Never bow, take the crown
In a kingdom you create

Brick by brick
Build your own kingdom
Brick by brick
Rise up from your knees
Brick by brick
Build your own kingdom
No one can tell you what to be

Brick by brick
Build your own kingdom
Brick by brick
And set yourself free
Brick by brick
Build your own kingdom
No one can tell you what to be
