The Kings


Invite me to your kingdom

Amongst all common Folk

Shower me with praises

As if I were a joke 

Give shelter to my captives

Who care not about me 

Lock me in your castle

I can't get set free

Sing a song of praise

Cries of my defeat

Listen to the rhythm

Move along the beat

Threaten if I talk about it

My home will disappear

Say I can't go back yonder

But I'm no longer needed here.
